DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
(Pursuant to Government Code
Sections 65864 - 65869.5)
This DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT ("Agreement" ) is entered
into on //- V -- 1997, between the entities listed on
signature pages hereto under the heading " ZUCKERMAN ENTITIES" ,
and PALOS VERDES LAND HOLDINGS COMPANY, L.P. , a California
limited partnership (hereinafter referred to collectively as
" Developer" ) , and the CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES, a municipal
corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of
California (" City" ) . Developer and City are sometimes
collectively referred to herein as the "parties.*
W E C I T A L S::
This Agreement is predicated upon the following facts:
A. These Recitals refer to and utilize certain capitalized
terms which are defined in this Agreement. The parties intend to
refer to those definitions in conjunction with the use thereof in
these Recitals.
B. Government Code Sections 65864 - 65869.5 ("Development
Agreement Laws ) authorize City to enter into binding development
agreements with persons having a legal or equitable interest in
real property or the development of such property, all for the
purpose of strengthening the public planning process, encouraging
private participation and comprehensive planning and reducing the
economic costs of such development.
C. Pursuant to Government Code Section 65865, City has
adopted rules and regulations establishing procedures and
requirements for consideration of .development agreements.

J
E. Developer anticipates developing a golf course and
residential planned development in Subregions 7 and 8 of the City
commonly known as the Ocean Trails Project (hereinafter referred
to as "Project" ) requiring substantial investment in public
facilities and substantial investment in on-site and off-site
improvements in order to make the Project feasible, much of which
is to be maintained by City after the development of the Project
has been completed.
F. Developer has applied for, and City has approved,
vesting tentative tract maps, parcel maps, conditional use
permits and other approvals related to the Project, which have
been amended on several occasions, in order to protect the
interests of its residents and the quality of the community and
the environment (collectively referred to as the "Approvals" ) .
The latest revisions to the Project were approved by the City
Council of City on September 3, 1996, and by the Planning
Commission on September 9, 1997. In addition, on April 15, 1993,
the California Coastal Commission approved Coastal Permit No. 103
for the Project, which likewise has been amended on January 12,
1995, September 27, 1995, February 1, 1996, July 11, 1996, and
October 7, 1997, to reflect the modifications to the Project.
G. As part of the approval process, City has undertaken,
pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (" CEQA' ) ,
the required analysis of the environmental effects which would be
caused by the Project. In that regard, on June 2, 1992, the City
Council of City adopted Resolution No. 92-53, which certified
Environmental Impact Report No. 36 and imposed a series of
mitigation measures in connection with the development of the
Project to eliminate or mitigate, to the extent feasible, any
potentially adverse impacts caused by the Project and made the
required environmental findings. On December 7, 1992, the City
Council of City adopted Resolution No. 92-115, which approved an
Addendum to the Environmental Impact Report prepared for
revisions to the Project, in accordance with the provisions of
CEQA. On October 5, 1993, the City Council of City adopted
Resolution No. 93-89, which approved a second Addendum to the
Environmental .Impact Report prepared for additional revisions to
the Project, in accordance with the provisions of CEQA. On
September 6, 1994, the City Council of City adopted Resolution
No. 94-71, which approved a third Addendum to the Environmental
Impact Report prepared for additional revisions to the Project,
in accordance with the provisions of CEQA. On March 11, 1996,
the City Council of City adopted Resolution No. 96-15, which
approved a fourth Addendum to the Environmental Impact Report
prepared for additional revisions to the Project, in accordance
with the provisions of CEQA. On September 3, 1996, the City
Council of City adopted Resolution No. 96-72, which approved a
fifth Addendum to the Environmental Impact Report prepared for
additional revisions to the Project, in accordance with the
provisions of CEQA. On October 23, 1997, the City Council of
971022 i s j A899.CA (11) -2-
97 1929840
City adopted Resolution No. 97-92, which approved a sixth
Addendum to the Environmental Impact Report to revise the project
description to include the preparation of this Development
Agreement, in accordance with the provisions of CEQA.
H. Due to the potential cost to City of maintaining the
habitat conservation areas and other public improvements which
will be dedicated to City after construction of the Project is
completed and the inability of City to rely on traditional
methods for obtaining financing to maintain these improvements,
such as taxes and assessment districts, and the uncertainty
concerning the validity of the City' s golf tax, because of the
adoption of Propositions 62 and 218, and due to the potential
cost of developing the Project and the Developer' s desire to
purchase from City an easement on a portion of City' s property,
commonly referred to as the Switchbacks, and to use a portion of
certain property recently conveyed to City by the County of Los
Angeles, to revegetate said areas for use as habitat for
endangered or threatened species, City and Developer wish to
enter into a development agreement relating to the Project.
Accordingly, proceedings have been undertaken in accordance with
City' s rules and regulations.
I. The Planning Commission and the City Council have found
that this Agreement is consistent with the City' s General Plan,
Coastal Specific Plan, Development Code and the Approvals, as
most recently amended.
J. On November 5, 1997, the City Council of City adopted
Ordinance No. 328, approving this Agreement with Developer.

to any change, modification, revision or alteration in the De-

of this Section 8, City acknowledges that Developer may seek
amendments to entitlements to use and new entitlements to use in
connection with the development of the Project. Subject to

amendments or new entitlements to use.
9. Hold Harmless. Developer agrees to and shall hold
City, its officers, agents, employees, partners and repre-
sentatives harmless from liability for damage or claims for dam-

wrongful misconduct of Developer or of Developer's contractors,
subcontractors, agents, employees or other persons acting on
Developer's behalf which relate to the Project. Developer agrees
to and shall defend and indemnify City and its officers, agents,
employees, partners and representatives from any and all actions

of Developer's contractors, subcontractors, agents, employees or
other persons acting on Developer's behalf in connection with the
Project.
10. Vested Right,. By entering into this Agreement and
relying thereon, Developer is obtaining a vested right to proceed

City is securing certain public benefits and financing which help
to alleviate current or potential problems in City and enhance
971022 899 7 97 z ts, A899.CWL (11)
the public health, safety and welfare. City therefore agrees to
the following:
10.1. No Conflicting Enactments,. Neither the
City Council of City nor any .other agency of City shall enact any
ordinance, policy, rule, regulation or other measure applicable
to the Project which relates to the rate, timing or sequencing of
the development, the density, design, construction standards and
specifications of the development, or, subject to Section 12.1
below, other matters applicable to the construction of all or any
part of the Project or which is otherwise in conflict with this
Agreement. This Section shall not restrict the City' s ability in
the event of a public emergency to take such reasonable measures
under its police powers to protect the public health and safety
as it deems necessary to deal with such emergency even if such
measures are incompatible with other terms of this Development
Agreement, including, without limitation, shutting off the water
to the golf course if water on the golf course is causing or
contributing to the public emergency. Without limiting other
matters which do not constitute a public emergency, for purposes
hereof, a public emergency shall not include matters which
develop over time such as, without limitation, traffic concerns
or air quality issues; except, however, public emergency shall
include any matter relating to the geologic stability of the
Property upon which the Project is located and the depth of the
water table underlying said Property which, in City's reasonable
judgment, is adversely impacting the public health and safety.
If the geologic problem is being caused primarily by adjacent or
upstream properties, City will first take available actions
against the owners of said other properties prior to taking
action against Owners of the subject Property. The parties
acknowledge and agree that City is restricted in its authority to
limit its police power by contract and that the foregoing
limitations are intended to reserve to City all of its police
power which cannot be so limited. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
this Agreement shall be construed, contrary to its stated terms
if necessary, to reserve to City all such power and authority
which cannot be restricted by contract.
10.2. Intent of Parties,. In addition to and not
in limitation of the foregoing, it is the intent of Developer and
City that no moratorium or other limitation (whether relating to
the rate, timing or sequencing of the development, the density,
design, construction standards and specifications of the
development, or, subject to Section 12.1 below, other matters
applicable to the construction of all or any part of the Project
and whether or not enacted by initiative or otherwise) affecting
subdivision maps, building permits, occupancy certificates or
other entitlements to use approved, issued or granted within
City, or portions of City, shall apply to the Project to the
extent such moratorium or other limitation is in conflict with
this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, should an
971022 l s j A899.Ca (11) -8- 1929840
ordinance, general plan or zoning amendment, measure, moratorium,
policy, rule, regulation or other limitation enacted by citizens
of City through the initiative process be determined by a court
of competent and final jurisdiction to invalidate or prevail over
all or any part of this Agreement, Developer shall have no
recourse against City pursuant to this Agreement, but shall
retain all other rights, claims and causes of action at law or in
equity which Developer may have independent of this Agreement.
11. General Development of the Project,. •
11.1. Project. While this Agreement is in
effect, Developer shall have a vested right to develop the
Project in accordance with the terms and conditions of this
Agreement and the Development Plan, and City shall have the
right to control the development of the Project in accordance
with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the
Development Plan. Thus, the Development Plan shall control the
overall design, development and construction of the Project and
all on-site and off-site improvements and appurtenances in
connection therewith, including, without limitation, all
mitigation measures (including those required to minimize or
eliminate any potentially significant environmental effects) .
The permitted uses of the Property, the density and intensity of
use, the maximum height and size of proposed buildings, the
provisions for reservation and dedication of land for public
purposes and other terms and conditions of development applicable
to the Property shall be those set forth in the Development Plan.
11.2. Phasing and Timing of Development,. The
parties acknowledge that although Developer currently anticipates
that the Project will be phased and constructed in increments
over an approximate five year time frame, at the present time
Developer cannot predict when or the order in which Project
phases will be developed. Such decisions depend upon numerous
factors which are not within the control of Developer, such as
market orientation and demand, interest rates, competition and
other similar factors. To the extent permitted by the
Development Plan and this Agreement, Developer shall have the
right to develop the Project in phases in such order and at such
times as Developer deems appropriate within the exercise of its
subjective business judgment, so long as the Project is
constructed as an integrated residential planned development as
contemplated by the Development Plan.
11.3. Effect of Agreement on Land Use,
Regulations. The rules, regulations and official policies
governing permitted uses of the Property, the density and
intensity of use of the Property, the maximum height and size of
proposed buildings and the design, improvement and construction
standards and specifications applicable to development of the
Property are those rules, regulations and official policies in
971022 l s j A899.Cell (11) -9- cr7 1929840
s•:
force as of the Agreement Date. In connection with any approval
which City is permitted or has the right to make under this
Agreement relating to the Project, or otherwise under its rules,
regulations and official policies, City shall exercise its
discretion or take action in a reasonably expeditious manner
which complies and is consistent with the Development Plan and
the standards, terms and conditions contained therein or in this
Agreement.
11.4. Agreement To Maintain Amenities And To Pay
Certain Revenues To City. Developer hereby agrees that Developer
and any subsequent owner(s) of those parcels of the Property
which comprise the golf course: (a) shall pay to City the tax
imposed pursuant to City Ordinance No. 291 (Chapter 3.40 of the
Rancho Palos Verdes Municipal Code, Exhibit "F", hereto) , even if
said tax is,determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be
invalid by virtue of Proposition 62 or any other applicable law;
and (b) shall maintain to City's reasonable satisfaction the
trails, parks, and open space areas located on the Property as
described in Resolution No. 96--94, which approved the Final
Public Amenities Plan for the Project, and any improvements
located thereon, including, without limitation, fences, signs,
landscaping, furniture, trash cans, drinking fountains, etc. , and
shall maintain the two on-site public parking lots, the public
restroom at the golf course clubhouse, the storm drains that will
not be accepted by Los Angeles County, the fire access lane
abutting the Ocean Terraces Condominiums, and the trails located
on City's Shoreline Property that Owners were required by the
California Coastal Commission to construct and improve, all
monitoring and dewatering wells located on the Property (and upon
request of City, shall convert such monitoring wells into
dewatering wells) and other devices located on-site to control
the level of the ground water or enhance the geologic stability
of the Property, as specifically set forth in the agreement which
is attached hereto as Exhibit E. Developer further agrees that
the agreement attached hereto as Exhibit E shall be recorded as a
covenant against the parcels comprising the golf course and shall
continue in effect notwithstanding the expiration or termination
of this Development Agreement.
If Developer or any subsequent owner(s) of those parcels
of the Property which comprise the golf course do not fulfill
their maintenance obligations with respect to said improvements
to City's reasonable satisfaction, then, after providing Owners
with the notice and opportunity to cure the default as set forth
in Section 16.1, City may commence proceedings to revoke or
impose additional conditions to ensure said maintenance on the
conditional use permit which was issued by City for the golf
course (Conditional Use Permit No. 163) , in accordance with the
notice and hearing requirements set forth in the Rancho Palos
Verdes Municipal Code. This paragraph shall not limit any other
971022 i s j A899.CWL (11) —10— 97 1929840
0./
rights, remedies, or causes of action that City may have at law
or equity to address said breach.
City covenants that, in consideration for Developer
guarantying the payment of the golf tax discussed in paragraph
(a) of this Section 11.4, Developer shall not be obligated to pay
any other similar tax or fee or comply with any similar exaction
imposed in connection with the operation of the golf course;
provided, however, this paragraph shall not be construed to
preclude the imposition of taxes or fees which are imposed on a
City-wide basis either on all business owners or on all property
owners.
The• provisions of this Section 11.4 shall survive the
termination of this Agreement.
11.5. Park Land Dedicat .4ns and Monetary
Contribution. In conjunction with processing this Project and
obtaining other permits required by other appropriate
governmental agencies, including, but not limited to, the U.S.
Fish and Wildlife Service, Developer has caused to be prepared
and processed a mitigation/restoration program for the
preservation of and enhancement of certain areas both on-site and
on properties located near the Property which are owned by City
("habitat conservation areas" ) . The habitat conservation areas
located on the Property and off-site are discussed at length in a
Habitat Conservation Plan which has been approved by City and the
applicable resource agencies. The Habitat Conservation Plan
("Plan") provides that it is initially the Owners'
responsibility, for a minimum period of five years, to ensure
that the habitat is planted and established. Under the Plan,
after the first five years pass and the habitat is established,
the City is to perform the long term maintenance of the habitat.
It is the intent of this Agreement that in addition to the
initial maintenance of the Habitat for the first five years,
Developer shall perform City's long term maintenance
responsibilities, to City's reasonable satisfaction. In
addition, Developer shall offer for dedication to City the three
public parks and the on-site habitat conservation areas depicted
on Exhibit "D." All improvements which are to be dedicated to
the City, including, without limitation, the improvements
referred to in this Section and Section 11.4, shall be completed
as prescribed in the Development Plan. As more particularly set
forth in the Agreement which is attached hereto as Exhibit E, if
Developer or any subsequent owner(s) of those parcels of the
Property which comprise the golf course do not fulfill their
maintenance obligations with respect to the habitat conservation
areas to City's reasonable satisfaction, then, after providing
Developer with the notice and opportunity to cure the default set
forth in Section 16.1 of this Agreement, City shall assume that
maintenance obligation, and in addition to the tax to be paid
pursuant to Section 11.4(a) above, Developer or said subsequent
971022 is j A899.CWL C 11) —11—

owner(s) of such parcels shall pay a fee to City in the amount of
One Dollar ($1.00) per round of golf (or any portion thereof)
played on the golf course to be developed as part of the Project.
The provisions of this Section 11.5 shall survive the termination
of this Agreement.
11.6. Payment for Switchbacks Area. As payment
for the use of twenty-one acres of the City' s property in the
Switchbacks area for habitat restoration purposes as mitigation
for development of the Project, prior to the issuance of a
grading permit, Developer shall pay to City the sum of One
Hundred Sixty--Five Thousand Dollars ($165,000) . Developer' s
right to use such property and twenty acres of 'the Shoreline
Property shall survive the termination of this Agreement and
shall be memorialized in a license agreement between Developer
and City which shall be recorded against each of said parcels.
11.7. Satisfaction of Park Fee Requirements,. In
consideration of the dedication and improvement of three parks on
the Property and the agreement set forth in Exhibit E that the
owner of the golf course parcels shall maintain said parks and
other areas specified in that agreement, Developer shall be
deemed to have satisfied all park requirements of City, and no
further park fees, exactions or dedications shall be applicable
to the development of the Project.
11.8. Development Fees,. Except as provided in
Section 12 of this Agreement, City shall not, without the prior
written consent of Developer, impose or increase any fees or
exactions applicable to the development of the Property or any
portion thereof, or impose any such fees or exactions as a
condition to the implementation of the Project or any portion
thereof, except those fees and exactions in effect on the date
the application for the two Vesting Tentative Tract Maps for the
Project was deemed complete in accordance with Government Code
Sections 66498.1 and 66474.2 (the "Application Date" ) . This
provision shall not prevent the application of escalation clauses
which, as of the Application Date, were in place in connection
with those fees and exactions in effect as of the Application
Date.
11.9. Public Wor.,s. Any public works facilities
which will be constructed by Developer and dedicated to City or
any other public agency upon completion shall be constructed in
accordance with the design and construction standards as would be
applicable to City or such other public agency should it have
undertaken such construction. This Section shall not be
interpreted to require public bids or any other similar
requirements unless otherwise required by applicable law. ,

approving any subsequent development project application on the

state or federal laws or regulations, enacted after this
Agreement is executed, prevent or preclude compliance with one or
971022 ls3 A899.CA (11) -13- • 97 1929840
v
more of the provisions of this Agreement, such provisions of this
Agreement shall be modified or suspended as may be necessary to
comply with such state or federal laws or regulations; provided,
however, that this Agreement shall remain in full force and
effect to the extent it is not inconsistent with such laws or
regulations and to the extent such laws or regulations do not
render such remaining provisions impractical to enforce.

Agreement may be amended or canceled in whole or in part only by
mutual consent of the parties in the manner provided for in
Government Code Section 65868.
14. Enforcement,. Unless amended or canceled as provided

jurisdiction to prevail over this Agreement) which alters or
amends the Development Plan or the timing of any development.
15. Periodic Review of Compliance With Agreement.

review this Agreement at least once every twelve (12) months from
the date this Agreement is executed in accordance with
Section 17.82.08 0 of the Rancho Palos Verdes Municipal Code.

least thirty (30) days prior thereto. However, City' s failure to
comply with this Section 15.1 shall not affect the validity of
this Agreement.
15.2. Good Faith Compliance. During each
periodic review, Developer shall be required to demonstrate good
faith compliance with the terms of this Agreement.

If, within sixty (60) days after the effective date of notice
from City specifying the manner in which Developer has failed to
so comply, Developer does not commence all steps reasonably
necessary to bring itself into compliance as required and
thereafter diligently pursue such steps to completion; then
Developer shall be deemed to be in default under the terms of

size, nature and scope of the Project, and due to the fact that
it will not be practical or possible to restore the Property to
its natural condition once implementation of this Agreement has
begun, the parties acknowledge that money damages and remedies at
law generally are inadequate and that specific performance is
appropriate for the enforcement of this Agreement. Therefore,

rights, remedies, or causes of action that any party may have at
law or equity.

Agreement. Any such legal action shall be brought in the
Superior Court for Los Angeles County, California.
18. Waivers and Delays,.
18.1. Wa3,ver. Failure by a party to insist upon
the strict performance of any of the provisions of this Agreement
by the other party, and failure by a party to exercise its rights
upon a default by the other party hereto, shall not constitute a

other party in the future.

be excused because of a failure of a third person except as
provided in Section 18.3 below.

hostilities, strikes, other labor difficulties, government
regulations, court actions, or other causes beyond the party' s
control.

In the event of any legal action instituted by a third party or
other governmental entity or official challenging the validity of
any provision of this Agreement, the parties hereby agree to

unreasonably withheld, if in any such action there is an order,
ruling, or judgment which includes a requirement that the City
pay damages or reimburse any party for legal fees or costs
incurred in connection with that action, Developer hereby agrees
that it will pay said damages, fees and costs. If City or
Developer determines that Developer's legal counsel would have a
conflict of interest in representing both Developer and City,
then City may engage its own legal counsel to represent City in
connection with such action, which shall be fully reimbursed by
Developer, provided that City defends the action in good faith.
Additionally, in such event, Developer shall not be required to
pay any amounts pursuant to any settlement entered into by City

in Addendum No. 5 to EIR No. 36 and revised Mitigation Monitoring Program, and determined that the
documents were prepared in compliance with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act and
local guidelines,with respect thereto;and,
WHEREAS,on September 3,1996,after notice issued pursuant to the provisions of the Development
Code,the City Council held a public hearing to consider draft Addendum No.5 to Environmental Impact Report
No.36 and the proposed Revision"C"to the Ocean Trails project,at which time all Interested parties were given
an opportunity to be heard and present evidence.
NOW, THEREFORE,THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES DOES
HEREBY FIND,DETERMINE,AND RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
fiction.1: That the proposed physical changes to the project,which include 1)relocation of two single
family residential lots in Vesting Tentative Tract Map No.50667 from the end of Street"A"to the end of Street
• "C";2)revisions to the boundaries of open space Lots B,C, G and H;3)conversion of the split-level lots in
Vesting Tentative Tract Map No.50667 to single-pad lots;4)revisions to the golf course layout 5)revisions to
the public trail system;6)combination of parallel trail easements;and 7)construction of a paved fire access
road west of the Ocean Terraces Condominiums, will all be located in areas of the subject property which were
previously identified as part of the developed portion of the project. Therefore,pursuant to Sections 15162 and
15164 of the State CEQA Guidelines,approval of Addendum No.5 to the previously certified ER,rather than
the preparation of a subsequent or supplemental EIR,is appropriate for the consideration of the proposed
revisions to the Ocean Trails project,based on the following findings:
1. That subsequent changes proposed to the project do not require important revisions to the previous
EIR,since there are no new significant environmental impacts that have been identified,which were
not considered in the previous EIR.
97 1929840
Resolution No.96-72
Page 2 of 4
2. That substantial changes to the project would not occur with respect to the circumstances under which
the project is undertaken,which would require important revisions to the previous EIR,since there are
no new significant environmental impacts that were not considered in the previous EIR.
3. That there is no new information of substantial importance to the project which indicates that the
project will have one or more significant effects not discussed previously in the EIR;that significant
effects previously examined will not be substantially more severe than shown in the EIR;that no
mitigation measures or alternatives,previously found not to be feasible,would now in fact be feasible
and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the project; or that no mitigation
measures or altematives which were not previously considered in the EIR,would now substantially
lessen one or more significant effects of the environment.
Section 2: In addition to the proposed physical changes to the project described above in Section 1,
the landowners have requested several amendments and/or clarifications to the Conditions of Approval and
Mitigation Measures for the project to modify the required timing for compliance. While not significant,the
proposed changes to the Mitigation Measures require re-adoption of the Mitigation Monitoring Program for the
Ocean Trails Project. These proposed clarifications and/or modifications will not alter the effectiveness of the
Conditions of Approval and/or Mitigation Measures,and will act,instead,to ensure that the project are better
monitored and the impacts are fully mitigated. Therefore,pursuant to Sections 15162 and 15164 of the State
CEQA Guidelines,approval of draft Addendum No.5 to the previously certified ER,rather than the preparation
of a subsequent or supplemental EIR,is appropriate for the consideration of the proposed revisions to the
Ocean Trails project.
Sec*3:In approving Addendum No.5 to EIR No.36,the City Council has reviewed and considered
the Addendum No. 5`document,attached hereto and made a part thereof, as Exhibit"A" and the revised
Mitigation Monitoring Program.attached hereto by reference and made a part thereof.as Exhibit"B".
Section 4: The Addendum No. 5 to EIR No. 36 identifies no new potential significant adverse
environmental impacts to the areas listed below,beyond those already identified in the Final EIR No.36,and
the Supplement and Addenda Nos. 1,2,3 and 4 to ER No. 36, as a result of the proposed revisions to the
Ocean Trails project:

won.5:That implementation of the changes to the physical configuration of the project would not
require additional mitigation measures or deletions/modifications:to the mitigation measures Included in the
Final EIR,as well as the Supplemental and Addends Nos.1,2,3 and 4 to EIR No.36. However,as discussed
above in Section 2,the landowners have requested to modify the required timing for compliance. These
proposed clarifications and/or modifications will not alter the effectiveness of the Conditions of Approval and/or
Mitigation Measures,and will act,instead,to ensure that the project are better monitored and the impacts are
fully mitigated.
' Section 6:T hat,while the implementation of mitigation measures as discussed In Final EIR No.36 and
the Supplemental and Addenda EIR Nos. 1,2,3 and 4 to EIR 36 will further reduce these impacts,it is not
possible to entirely eliminate cumulative impacts to the areas of concern listed in Section 1,above. Therefore,
the Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations, as provided In Final EIR No. 36, are hereby
Incorporated by reference.
Section 7: All findings, attachments and Statement of Overriding Considerations contained in
Resolution Nes. 92-53, 92-115,9349, 94-71 and 96-15, as adopted by the City Council on June 1, 1992,
December 7, 1992, October 5, 1993, September 6, 1994 and March 11, 1996, respectively, are hereby
incorporated by reference.
Section 8:Forte foregoing reasons and based on the information and findings contained in the Staff
Report,minutes,and evidence presented at the public hearings,the City Council of the Cry of Rancho Palos
Verdes hereby approves Addendum No.5 to Environmental Impact Report No.36,based on the determination
that the document was completed in compliance with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality

ADDENDUM NO.5
To
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT NO.36
The City Council has reviewed the proposed revisions to the Ocean Trails project in conjunction with the
requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA),as well as State and Local CEQA Guidelines,
and find as follows:
The relocation of two single family residential lots in Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 50667 from the end of
Street"A"(Lot Nos.34 and 35 on the previously approved plan)to the end of Street"C"(Lot Nos.8 and 9 on
the revised plan)and the revision to the golf course layout for Hole Nos.3,4 and 5 does not result in any new
or increased impacts to the environment,since these improvements would be located in areas of the subject
property that were previously identified as part of the developed and/or graded portion of the project.
The reconfiguration to the boundaries of common open space Lots B,C,G and H does not result in any new
or increased impacts to the ernrironment,since the minimum required lot sizes of these lots will be maintained
and there will be no net decrease in the acreage of protected habitat.
The conversion of the split-level lots to single-pad lots in Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 50667 and the
proposed changes to the maximum building heights on some of these lots does not result in any new or
increased impacts to the environment,since the views of the ocean,Catalina Island and the coastline from
Palos Verdes Drive South would not be adversely impacted.
The proposed changes to the public trails in the project would not result In any new or increased impacts to the
environment,since 1)the realignment of the public trail from the La Rotonda parking lot to the Bluff Top Activity
Corridor would increase the safety of the public using the lateral trail connection through the golf course to the
bluff top;2)the provision to allow shared use of certain segments of the public trail for golf carts would minimize
the amount of pavement in these areas,minimize conflicts caused by crossing paths and would not diminish
public enjoyment of these trails;and and.3)the combination of parallel pedestrian and bicycle trails Into a
single easement would not change the physical configuration of the trails once they have been constructed.
The construction of a paved fire access road on the seaward side of the Ocean Terraces Condominiums does
not result in any new or increased impacts to the environment,since the paved road would Improve public
safety by providing all-weather access to the existing fire hydrants along the south side of the condominium
complex.
The amendments to the Conditions of Approval and Mitigation Measures would not result In any new or
increased impacts to the environment,since these changes will not alter the effectiveness of the Conditions of
Approval and/or Mitigation Measures,and will act.instead.to ensure that the project are better monitored and
the impacts are fully mitigated.

Trails project,the City Council Independently reviewed and considered the information and findings contained
in Addendum No. 5 to EIR No. 36 and revised Mitigation Monitoring Program, and determined that the
documents were prepared in compliance with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act and
local guidelines,with respect thereto:and,
WHEREAS,on September 3,1996,after notice issued pursuant to the provisions of the Development
Code,the City Council held a public hearing to consider draft Addendum No.5 to Environmental Impact Report
No.36 and the proposed Revision"C"to the Ocean Trails project,at which time all Interested parties were given
an opportunity to be heard and present evidence.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES DOES
HEREBY FIND,DETERMINE,AND RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
$onion 1:In considering the proposed revisions to the project,the City Council has determined that
. the preparation of Addendum No. 5 to Environmental Impact Report No. 36 is appropriate, since the
subsequent changes in the project will not result In any new significant environmental impacts which were not
previously identified and analyzed'in Environmental Impact Report No.36,that the subsequent changes will
not result in an increase in any previously identified significant environmental impacts,that the Addendum does
not contain new information of substantial importance to the project and that only minor technical changes or
additions are necessary to make Environmental Impact Report adequate under the provisions of the California
Environmental Quality Act(CEQA).
This is so,since the revised project will result in no significant change in the impacts identified in the
previous EIR. The relocation of two single family residential lots in Vesting Tentative Tract Map No.50667 from
the end of Street"A"(Lot Nos.34 and 35 on the previously approved plan)to the end of Street"C"(Lot Nos.
8-and 9 on the revised plan)and the revision to the golf course layout for Hole Nos.3,4 and 5 does not result
in any new or increased impacfis,to the environment,since these improvements would be located in areas of
the subject property that were previously identified as part of the developed and/or graded portion of the project.
• The reconfiguration to the boundaries of common open space Lots B,C,G and H does not result in any new
or increased Impacts to the environment,since the minimum required lot sizes of these lots will be maintained
and there will be no net decrease in the acreage of protected habitat. The conversion of the split-level lots to
single-pad lots in Vesting Tentative Tract Map No.50681 and the proposed changes to the maximum building
heights on some of these lots does not result In any new or increased impacts to the environment,since the
views of the ocean,Catalina Island and the coastline from Palos Verdes Drive South would not be adversely
impacted.
Resolution No.96-73

LW.
The proposed changes to the public trails in the project would not result in any new or increased
impacts to the environment,since 1)the realignment of the public trail from the La Rotonda parking lotto the
Bluff Top Activity Corridor would increase the safety of the public using the lateral trail connection through the
golf course to the bluff top;2)the provision to allow shared use of certain segments of the public trail for golf
carts would minimize the amount of pavement in these areas,minimize conflicts caused by crossing paths and
would not diminish public enjoyment of these trails;and and,3)the combination of parallel pedestrian and
bicycle trails into a single easement would not change the physical configuration of the trails once they have
been constructed. The construction of a paved fire access road on the seaward side of the Ocean Terraces
Condominiums does not result in any new or increased impacts to the environment,since the paved road would
Improve public safety by providing all-weather access to the existing fire hydrants along the south side of the
condominium complex. The amendments to the Conditions of Approval and Mitigation Measures would not
result in any new or increased impacts to the environment,since these changes will not alter the effectiveness
of the Conditions of Approval and/or Mitigation Measures,and will act,Instead,to ensure that the project are
better monitored and the impacts are fully mitigated.
Therefore, based on the review of Draft Addendum No.5 to Environmental Impact Report No.36
. prepared in association with the proposed Revision"C"to the Ocean Trails project,as conditioned,the City
Council finds that the project still mitigates,or reduces to the extent feasible,significant adverse effects to
adjacent properties or the permitted uses thereof. In approving the revised project,the City Council finds that
social, recreational, and other benefits of the project continue to outweigh any unavoidable adverse
environmental impacts that may occur and that due to overriding benefits and considerations,any unavoidable
adverse environmental impacts of the project are acceptable. Accordingly, the City Council hereby
incorporates, by reference,the Final EIR No. 36,the Supplemental EIR,Addenda Nos. 1,2,3 and 4,and
Resolution No.92-115(which includes,without limitation,the detailed statement of overriding considerations
set forth therein).
Section 2: The mitigation measures contained in the revised Mitigation Monitoring Program attached
as Exhibit"B"to Resolution No.96-72 are hereby incorporated by reference into the Conditions of Approval
for the revisions to Vesting Tentative Tract Map No.50666.
Section 3: That the creation of thirty-nine(39)single-family residential lots,golf course with related
improvements and public open space,as conditioned,is consistent with the City's General Plan and Coastal
Specific Plan.
The General Plan land use map designates almost the entire project site as Residential,with a
maximum density of one dwelling unit per acre, and designates the coastal bluffs as hazard areas. The
General Plan provides for additional commercial recreational uses within the City as appropriate to a particular
location, including golf, equestrian,tennis and other recreational activities, and designates the City's entire
coastal area as a specific plan district.
The Coastal Specific Plan land use map shows the following general uses for the project site: (a)
Residential (with a maximum density of one dwelling unit per acre)for the vast majority of the property,(b)
Hazard areas along the bluffs and in the westerly natural drainage course,(c)a floating Retail Commercial
area,and(d)Recreational parking. The text of the Coastal Specific Plan expressly permits visitor-serving uses,
such as a golf course,subject to satisfaction of the requirements for granting a conditional use permit under
the Development Code.
With 39 residential units on approximately 39.6 acres,the density is slightly below one dwelling unit per
acre and,therefore,consistent with the General Plan and Coastal Specific Plan.
Section 4: That the creation of thirty-nine(39)single-family residential lots,common open space,a
public golf course,and public open space,as conditioned,is consistent with the City's Development Code for
projects within the RS-1 zoning district under a Residential Planned Development. In addition,a minimum of
Resolution No.96-73
Page 4 of 9

c1
30 percent of the site will be maintained within the residential development as common open space,exclusive
of the golf course. The 39-Lot Revised Site Plan does not contemplate construction of any structures on land
currently zoned as Open Space Hazard.
The majority of the subject property is zoned RS-1 (Residential Planned Development)with the bluff
face and the southwesterly natural drainage course(commonly known as Forrestal Canyon)being zoned as
Open Space Hazard(OH). In compliance with the requirements of the OH zoning district,the applicant will not
construct any permanent habitable structures on land that is zoned Open Space Hazard.
The RS-1 (RPD).zone requires a conditional use permit for any type of development(§17.06.050)and
expressly permits single-family residential development and any other uses permitted under Chapter 17.02;
including conditionally-permitted uses under Chapter 17.56,such as golf courses(§17. 6.030). Accordingly,
under Chapter 17.06 and Section 17.56.020 of the Development Code,residential development and a golf
course and related facilities are permissible uses,subject to a conditional use permit. The necessary findings
with respect to the conditional use permits required in connection with the Residential Planned Development
and golf course are contained in Resolutions Nos.96-75 and 96-76,respectively.
Furthermore,the residential portion of the project provides in excess of thirty percent of the Residential
Planned Development as common open space,which open space is sited in a manner that is accessible for
viewing and access by the general public from public roads and walkways and preserves views to the coast.
Section 5: That the provision of a continuous bluff road as provided in the Coastal Specific Plan and
depicted on Figure 24 of the Coastal Specific Plan is Infeasible due to geologic and geotechnical constraints
affecting the property and because such a road would require substantial alteration to the natural canyon area
on the western portion of the property commonly known as "Forrestal Canyon". The City geologist and
9eatechnical engineer have each concluded that the land upon which such a road would be built has not
demonstrated sufficient'stability to warrant the construction of a permanent road in that location. M an
alternative,the project.features the realignment of Paseo Del Mar as a bluff road cul-de-sac taking access from
Palos Verdes Drive South and the vacation of the central portion of Paseo del Mar. There will be no dwelling
units located seaward of this bluff road.
The combination of the vacation of the central portion of Paseo del Mar,the realignment of Paseo Del
Mar as a bluff road cul-de-sac taking access from Palos Verdes Drive South,and a public access easement
_over the clubhouse driveway and parking facilities to Forrestal Canyon,as provided in the revised applications
and conditions of approval,is consistent with Coastal Specific Plan,Subregion 7,Policy No. 16 which states
that"Paseo del Mar shall be improved to provide access to residential development and consideration shall
be given to relocating Paseo del Mar southward or exchanging it for another access route closer to the bluff
edge."
The intent of Coastal Specific Plan,Subregion 7,Policy 19 is satisfied by the provision of an 8.9 acre
Bluff Top Public Access Corridor with a minimum width of one hundred(100)feet located along the bluff top
between Half Way Point Park and Shoreline Park. This Bluff Top Public Access Corridor contains a public
pedestrian trail along the entire length of the corridor and an off-road bicycle trail through the central portion
of the site. The City Council finds that the Bluff Top Public Access Corridor is similar in average width and area
to any coastal bluff road which would otherwise be constructed,if geologically feasible,pursuant to Coastal
Specific Plan,Subregion 7,Policy 19.
The City Council further finds that there shall be no road seaward of the last row of dwelling units in
the residential area located on the far western portion of the property because the adverse impacts of a such
a road'outweigh its potential benefits. A road seaward of the last row of dwelling units in this area should not
be connected to the proposed bluff road because such a connection would result In substantial alteration and
damage to Forrestal Canyon and the significant biological resources located therein.
Resolution No.96-73
Page 5 of 9
97
Wthout such a connection,the City Council finds that such a road is unnecessary to provide vehicular
access to the coast and the coastal bluff,adequate vehicular access having already been provided by the bluff
road cul-de-sac and public access to the clubhouse driveway and parking facilities,as described above.
ipn 6: 'Mantis golf.course and related uses are consistent with Coastal Specific Plan,Subregion
7,Policy 7 which states:"Ensure that any proposed commercial activity responds to the needs of the coastal
residents and shall not be of an intensity which would purposefully generate a service area external of the
coastal region." The.City Council finds that the intent of the above policy Is to limit traditional commercial
development(such as retail and office uses)so as not to create a service area external to the coastal region
. and that such policy Is not intended to apply to commercial recreational uses,which are encouraged by the
General Plan and Coastal Specific Plan. The City Council's interpretation of this policy is consistent with other'
policies in the.Coastal Specific Plan and with Resolution No. 82-24,which adopted Coastal Specific Plan
Amendment No.1 and specifically authorized visitor-serving uses,such as golf,in Subregion 7.
Section 7: That the trails plan as shown in the revised "Site Plan for Conditional Use Permit
Amendment Map No.2"(dated June 19,1996)submitted by the applicant,including the Class i Pedestrian and
Bike Trail segment in the area seaward of the western residential area,is consistent with the Coastal Specific
Plan requirements relating to trails. The precise alignment-of this particular trail segment varies between its
description in the Coastal Specific Plan, its display on Access Corridors map in the Coastal Specific Plan
(Figure 24)and Its location on the Coastal Specific Plan Land Use Map.
Because of these slightly different configurations,City Council finds that these descriptions and maps
in the Coastal Specific Plan are intended to provide a generalized location for this trail segment. The City
Council has considered these different alignments and found that the alignment of this segment as shown in
the"Site Plan for Conditional Use Permit Amendment Map No.2"(dated June 19,1996) provides comparable
public access,minimizes incompatibility with the active public recreational Uses and,when connected to the
• bluff road cut.de sac via a bridge over Forrestal Canyon,provides linkage to the bluff road,bluff top areas and
the remainder of the site. The City Council finds that in the absence of a road seaward of the last row of
dwelling units in the western residential area(as described in Section 5 hereof),this trail segment should be
located as shown In the revised"Site Plan for Conditional Use Permit Amendment Map No.2"(date June 19,
1996).
Section 8: That the golf course and related uses are consistent with Coastal Specific Plan policy and
Section 17.06.040.0.8 of the Development Code,which require the area seaward of corridor improvements
to be improved and either dedicated or permanently maintained through deed restriction for public use. Section .
17.06.040.C.6 ate Development Code permits the preservation of open space by dedication,deed restriction
or other appropriate methods approved by the City. In compliance with these provisions and policies,the East
and West Bluff Preserves,Half Way Point Park,Half Way Point Preserve,the Bluff Top Public Access Corridor,
the Bluff Top Wildlife Corridor(located between the West Bluff Preserve and Half Way Point Park)and the
public paths, trails, parking and recreational areas associated with these public open space areas will be
improved by the applicants and offered to the City for dedication. Furthermore,the golf course area will be
improved by the applicants and permanently maintained through deed restriction for public use. The City
Council specifically.finds that the deed restriction.on the golf course land constitutes permanently maintained
public open space. Neither the Coastal Specific Plan nor Development Code expressly prohibit active public
recreational uses,or require only passive public uses,for the area seaward of the conceptual bluff road.
Section Q: For purposes of the Subdivision Map Act,the design of the subdivision,golf course,and the
related improvements will not cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure
fish or wildlife or their habitat based on compliance with the City's Development Code, General Plan and
Coastal Specific Plan and consideration of information contained in Draft, Supplemental, and Addenda to
Environmental Impact Report No.36.

Based on the information,.analysis.•and•:findings.included in Environmental Impact Report.No.36,and
. the subsequent conditions of approval placed on the project by they of. ancho Paws'Verdes and the
:California Coastal Commission,the City Council finds twit the Ocean Trails project site has certain physical and
environmental constraints,including geotechincal factors,topographic conditions and requirements for open
.space,public parks,a trails network and native habitat areas,which limit the amount of land available on-site
for the construction of affordable housing units.

in addition,based on Information that was gathered by the City with regard to the average number of
persons withln.the law to moderate income ranges that would be expected to be employed on the project site,
Including employees associated with the golf course and the residential lots,the City Council finds that the
project will generate a need for affordable housing units.
Therefore,taking into the account the physical constraints,yet recognizing the employment generated
housing needs,the City Council finds that a requirement of 10%(currently 8 units)of affordable housing(based
on the final total number of buildable lots)is a feasible requirement that would satisfy the intent of Government
Code Section 65590.
However,the City Council's finding is in no way intended to preclude future residents or tenants of the
project site from providing additional affordable housing opportunities.
section t4: That the division and development of the property will not unreasonably interfere with the
free and complete exercise of the public entity and/or public utility rights-of-way and/or easements within the
tract
Sectioq j 4: That the discharge of sewage from this land division into the public sewer system will not
violate the requirements of the California Regional Water Quality Control Board pursuant to Division 7
(commencing with Section 13000 of the Water Code).
section 1§: 'That the design of the residential subdivision,golf course,and associated improvements
are not likely to cause serious public health problems.
Sector)17: That the design of the residential subdivision,golf course,and the type of improvements
associated with them,will not conflict with easements acquired by the public at large for access through or use
of property within the proposed project. Further,public trail easements which are consistent with the policies
of the General Plan and the Coastal Specific Plan are required as a condition of this approval.
Section 10: That the design of the revised vesting tentative tract map provides for future passive or
natural heating or cooling opportunities in the subdivision to the extent feasible.
Sect$on 19: That the revised vesting tentative tract map does not propose to divide land which is
subject to a contract entered into pursuant to the California Land Conservation Act of 1965.
Section)29: That dedications required by local ordinance are shown on the tentative map and/or are
set forth in the conditions of approval attached hereto in Exhibit"A".
eectiov21: That the City considered the effect of approval of the residential subdivision on the housing
needs of the region in which the City is situated and balanced these needs against the public service needs of
its residents and available fiscal and environmental resources.

96-27,thereby recommending approval of Addendum No.5 to EIR No.36 and recommending approval of the

WHEREAS,on September 3,1996,after notice issued pursuant to the provisions of the Development
Code,the City Council held a public hearing to consider draft Addendum No.5 to Environmental Impact Report
No.38 and the proposed Revision"C"to the Ocean Trails project,at which time all interested parties were given
an opportunity to be heard and present evidence.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES DOES
HEREBY FIND,DETERMINE,AND RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1: In considering the proposed revisions to the project, the Planning Commission has
determined that the preparation of Addendum No.5 to Environmental Impact Report No. 36 is appropriate,
since the subsequent changes in the project will not result in any new significant environmental impacts which
were not previously identified and analyzed in Environmental Impact Report No. 36, that the subsequent
changes will not result in an increase in any previously identified.significant environmental impacts,that the
Addendum does not contain new information of substantial importance to the project and that only minor
technical changes or additions are necessary to make Environmental Impact Report adequate under the
provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA).
This is so,since the revised project will result in no significant change in the impacts identified in the
previous ER. The relocation of two single family residential lots in Vesting Tentative Tract Map No.50667 from
the end of Street"A"(Lot Nos.34 and 35 on the previously approved plan)to the end of Street"C"(Lot Nos.
8 and 9 on the revised plan)and the revision to the golf course layout for Hole Nos.3,4 and 5 does not result
in any new or increased impacts to the environment,since these improvements would be located in areas of
the subject property that were previously identified as part of the developed and/or graded portion of the project
The reconfiguration to the boundaries of common open space Lots B,C,G and H does not result in any new
or increased impacts to the environment,since the minimum required lot sizes of these lots will be maintained
and there will be no net decrease in the acreage of protected habitat. The conversion of the split-level lots to
single-pad lots in Vesting Tentative Tract Map NO.50667 and the proposed changes to the maximum building
heights on some of these lots does not result in any new or increased impacts to the environment,since the
views of the ocean,Catalina Island and the coastline from Palos Verdes Drive South would not be adversely
impacted.
The proposed changes to the public trails in the project would not result in any new or increased
impacts to the environment,since 1)the realignment of the public trail from the La Rotonda parking lot to the
Bluff Top Activity Corridor would Increase the safety of the public using the lateral trail connection through the
golf course to the bluff top;2)the provision to allow shared use of certain segments of the public trail for golf
carts would minimize the amount of pavement in these areas,minimize conflicts caused by crossing paths and
would not diminish public enjoyment of these trails;and,3)the combination of parallel pedestrian and bicycle
trails into a single easement would not change the physical configuration of the trails once they have been
constructed. The construction of a paved fire access road on the seaward side of the Ocean Terraces
Condominiums does not result in any new or increased impacts to the environment,since the paved road would
Resolution No.96-74
Page3of8
97
improve public safety by providing.811-weather access to the existing fire hydrants along the south side of the
condominium complex. The amendments to the Conditions of Approval and Mitigation Measures would not
result in any new or increased impacts to the environment,since these changes will not alter the effectiveness
of the Conditions of Approval and/or Mitigation Measures,and will act,instead,to ensure that the project are
better monitored and the impacts are fully mitigated.
Therefore, based on the review of Draft Addendum No.5 to Environmental Impact Report No. 36
prepared in association with the proposed Revision"C"to the Ocean Trails project,as conditioned,the Planning
Commission finds that the project still mitigates,or reduces to the extent feasible,significant adverse effects
to adjacent properties or the permitted uses thereof. In approving the revised project,the Planning Commission
finds that social,recreational,and other benefits of the project continue to outweigh any unavoidable adverse
environmental impacts that may occur and that due to overriding benefits and considerations,any unavoidable
adverse environmental impacts of the project are acceptable. Accordingly, the Planning Commission
recommends that the City Council incorporate, by reference,the Final EIR No. 36,the Supplemental EIR,
Addenda Nos. 1, 2, 3 and 4, and Resolution No. 92-115 (which includes, without limitation, the detailed
statement of overriding considerations set forth therein).
Section 2: The mitigation measures contained in the revised Mitigation Monitoring Program attached
as Exhibit"B"to Resolution No.96-72 are hereby Incorporated by reference into the Conditions of Approval for
the revisions to Vesting Tentative Tract Map No.50667.
Section 3,: That the creation of thirty-six(36)single-family residential lots,golf course with related
improvements and public open space.as conditioned,is consistent with the Cites General Plan and Coastal
Specific Plan.
The General Plan land use map designates almost the entire project site as Residential, with a
maximum density of one dwelling unit per acre, and designates the coastal bluffs as hazard areas. The
General Plan provides for addtiional commercial recreational uses within the City as appropriate to a particular
location, including golf, equestrian, tennis and other recreational activities, and designates the City's entire
coastal area as a specific plan district.
The Coastal Specific Plan land use map shows the following general uses for the project site: (a)
Residential (with a maximum density of one dwelling unit per acre)for the vast majority of the property, (b)
Hazard areas along the bluffs,the natural drainage course and in certain portions north of Paseo del Mar with
extreme slopes(greater than 35% in steepness),(c)a floating Retail Commercial area,and(d)Recreational
parking. The text of the Coastal Specific Plan expressly permits visitor-serving uses,such as a golf course.
subject to satisfaction of the requirements for granting a conditional use permit under the Development Code.
With 36 residential units on approximately 37.6 acres,the density is slightly below one dwelling unit per
acre and,therefore,consistent with the General Plan and Coastal Specific Plan.
Section 4: That the creation of thirty-six(36)single-family residential lots, common open space,a
public golf course,and public open space,as conditioned,is consistent with the City's Development Code for
projects within the RS-1 zoning district under a Residential Planned Development. In addition,a minimum of
30 percent of the site will be maintained within the residential development as common open space,exclusive
of the golf course. The 36-Lot Revised Site Plan does not contemplate construction of any structures on land
with slopes in excess of 35%,or on land currently zoned Open Space Hazard.
The majority of the subject property is zoned RS-1 (Residential Planned Development)with the bluff
face and the natural drainage course and certain areas north of Paseo del Mar being zoned as Open Space
Hazard (OH). In compliance with the requirements of the OH zoning district,the applicant will not construct
any permanent habitable structures on land that is zoned Open Space Hazard.
The RS-1 (RPD)zone requires a conditional use permit for any type of development(§17.06.050)and
expressly permits single-family residential development and any other uses permitted under Chapter 17.02,
including conditionally-permitted uses under Chapter 17.56,such as golf courses. (§ 17.06.030). Accordingly,
Resolution No.96-74
Page 4 of 8
97
under Chapter 17.06 and Section 17.56.020 of the Development Code,residential development and a golf
course and related facilities are permissible uses,subject to a conditional use permit. The necessary findings
with respect to the conditional use permits required In connection with the Residential Planned Development
and golf course are contained in Resolutions Nos.96-75 and 96-76,respectively.
Furthermore,the residential portion of the project provides in excess of thirty percent of the Residential
Planned Development as common open space,which open space is sited in a manner that is accessible for
viewing and access by the general public from public roads and walkways and preserves views to the coast.
Section 5; That the combination of the vacation of the central portion of Paseo del Mar and the
realignment of Paseo Del.Mar as a long bluff road cul-de-sac taking access off of Palos Verdes Drive South
as provided in related applications is consistent with Coastal Specific Plan Subregion 7 Policy No. 16,which
states that"Paseo del Mar shall be improved to provide access to residential development and consideration
shall be given to relocating Paseo del Mar southward or exchanging it for another access route closer to the
bluff edge."
The intent of Coastal Specific Plan,Subregion 7,Policy 19 is further satisfied by the provision of an 8.9
acre Bluff Top Public Access Corridor with a minimum width of one hundred (100)feet located along the bluff
top between Half Way Point Park and Shoreline Park. The City Council finds that the Bluff Top Public Access
Corridor is similar in average width and area to any coastal bluff road which would otherwise be constructed,
if geologically feasible,pursuant to Coastal Specific Plan,Subregion 7,Policy 19.
Section 6,: That the golf course and related uses are consistent with Coastal Specific Plan,Subregion
7,Policy 7 which states:"Ensure that any proposed commercial activity responds to the needs of the coastal
residents and shall not be of an intensity which would purposefully generate a service area external of the
coastal region." The City Council finds that the intent of the above policy is to limit traditional commercial
development(such as retail and office uses)so as not to create a service area external to the coastal region
and that such policy is not intended to apply to commercial recreational uses,which are encouraged by the
General Plan and Coastal Specific Plan. The City Council's interpretation of this policy is consistent with other
policies in the Coastal Specific Plan and with Resolution No. 82-24,which adopted Coastal Specific Plan
Amendment No.1 and specifically authorized visitor-serving uses,such as golf,in Subregion 7.
Section 7: That the trails plan as shown in the revised Site Plan for Conditional Use Permit
Amendment Map No. 2" (dated June 19, 1996) submitted by the applicants is consistent with the Coastal
Specific Plan requirements relating to trails.
Section 8: That the golf course and related uses are consistent with Coastal Specific Plan policy and
Section 17.06.040.C.8 of the Development Code,which require the area seaward of corridor improvements
to be improved and either dedicated or permanently maintained through deed restriction for public use. Section
17.06.040.C.6 ofthe Development Code permits the preservation of open space by dedication,deed restriction
or other appropriate methods approved by the City. In compliance with these provisions and policies,the East
and West Bluff Preserves,Half Way Point Park,Half Way Point Preserve,the Bluff Top Public Access Corridor,
the Bluff Top Wildlife Corridor(located between the West Bluff Preserve and Half Way Point Park)and the
public paths, trails, parking and recreational areas associated with these public open space areas will be
improved by the applicants and offered to the City for dedication. Furthermore,the golf course area will be
improved by the applicants and permanently maintained through deed restriction for public use. The City
Council specifically finds that the deed restriction on the golf course land constitutes permanently maintained
public open space. Neither the Coastal Specific Plan nor Development Code expressly prohibit active public
recreational uses,or require only passive public uses,for the area seaward of the conceptual bluff road.
Seption 9: For purposes of the Subdivision Map Act,the design of the subdivision,golf course,or the
related improvements will not cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and unavoidably injure
fish or wildlife or their habitat based on compliance with the City's Development Code, General Plan and
Coastal Specific Plan and consideration of information contained in Draft, Supplemental, and Addenda of
Environmental Impact Report No.36.
Resolution No.96-74
Page 5 of 8
97
The City Council acknowledges that there is the difference between the term"significant impact"under
CEQA and the term"substantial environmental damage"under the Subdivision Map Act. Draft BR No.36,
Supplement to E1R No. 36, and Addendum Nos. 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 to EIR No. 36 are required to base
environmental findings on*worst case"basis. As a result,the Final EIR and Addendum No. 1 EIR conclude
that significant impacts to biological resources remain after mitigation because of the loss of raptor foraging
area and because of the temporal loss of Coastal Sage Scrub. Even with the 2:1 replacement of existing viable
Coastal Sage Scrub and the other mitigation measures contained in the Final DR and Addendum no.1 to EIR
No.36,the temporal loss of Coastal Sage Scrub,which serves as natural habitat for the California gnatcatcher,
is considered significant due to the uncertainty that this species will be able to re-occupy the site after
replacement of the Coastal Sage Scrub. These environmental findings are primarily the result of grading for
the golf course,which itself has already been minimized through its links-type design. These specific findings•
and a corresponding statement of overriding considerations are contained in Resolution No.92-115,which is
hereby incorporated by reference.
With the mitigation measures adopted by the City pursuant to Resolution No. 92-115, and
recommended to be revised pursuant to Resolution No. 9642, the project will not result In substantial
•environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat under the Subdivision
Map.Act. . However,.even assuming that the project did result in substantial environmental damage or
substantially and.avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their.habitat, such damage or injury would be caused
primarily by grading for the golf course. The elimination of the golf course is not feasible because it would not
satisfy an important objective of the project: to provide visitor-serving public recreational uses,which objective
is encouraged by policies in the Coastal Specific Plan. For this reason,this alternative or mitigation measure
has been.rejected by the City Council. Pursuant to Resolution No.92-115,the City has made a finding of
infeasibility with respect to elimination of the golf course.
Section 10: That the subject property is physically suitable to accommodate the revised Vesting
Tentative Tract Map No.50667,as conditioned,in terms of design and density.
Section 11: That the creation of the lots,single family residential dwelling units,golf course,public
open space, and related Improvements will not be materially detrimental to property values, nor will It
jeopardize,endanger,or otherwise constitute a menace to the surrounding areas,since physical improvements,
dedications and maintenance agreements are required.
Section j2:, The City Council has considered the effect of the revised tract map on the housing needs
of the region.as set forth in the City's Housing Element,and balanced these needs against the public service
needs of its residents and against available fiscal and environmental resources,and finds that the revised tract
map help to achieve those housing needs without unreasonably burdening the public service needs of existing
residents and available fiscal and environmental resources.
Section 13: The City Council has considered the requirements of Government Code Section 65590.
which requires new housing developments located in the coastal zone to provide,where feasible,housing units
for persons and families of low or moderate incomes,as defined in Section 50093 of the Health and Safety
Code. The Government Code further requires that where it is not feasible to provide these housing units in a
proposed new housing development,the local government shall require the developer to provide such housing,
if feasible to do so,at another location within the City,either within the coastal zone or within three miles thereof.
Based on the information,analysis and findings included in Environmental Impact Report No.36,and
the subsequent conditions of approval placed on the project by the City of Rancho Palos Verdes and the
California Coastal Commission,the City Council finds that the Ocean Trails project site has certain physical and
environmental constraints,including geotechincal factors.topographic conditions and requirements for open
space,public parks,a trails network and native habitat areas,which limit the amount of land available on-site
for the construction of affordable housing units.
In addition,based on information that was gathered by the City with regard to the average number of
persons within the low to moderate income ranges that would be expected to be employed on the project site..
Resolution No.96-74
Page 6 of 8
97 1929840
including employees associated with the golf course and the residential lots,the City Council finds that the
project will generate a need for affordable housing units.
Therefore,taking into the account the physical constraints,yet recognizing the employment generated
housing needs,the City Council finds that a requirement of 10%(currently 8 units)of affordable housing(based
on the final total number of buildable lots)is a feasible requirement that would satisfy the intent of Government
Code Section 65590.
However,the City Counci's finding is in no way intended to preclude future residents or tenants of the
project site from providing additional affordable housing opportunities.
Secgpp 14: That the division and development of the property will not unreasonably interfere with the
free and complete exercise of the public entity and/or public utility rights-of-way and/or easements within the
tract.
Sectior : That the discharge of sewage from this land division into the public sewer system will not
violate the requfrenents of the California Regional Water Quality Control Board pursuant to Division 7
(commencing with Section 13000 of the Water Code).
Sect n 16,: That the design of the residential subdivision,golf course and associated improvements
are not likely to cause serious public health problems.
Section 17: That the design of the residential subdivision,golf course,and the type of improvements
associated with them,will not conflict with easements acquired by the public at large for access through or use
of property within the proposed project. Further,public trail easements which are consistent with the policies
of the General Plan and the Coastal Specific Plan are required as a condition of this approval.
SeGtlQn 18: That the design of the revised vesting tentative tract map provides for future passive or
natural heating or cooling opportunities in the subdivision to the extent feasible.
Section 19: That the revised vesting tentative tract map does not propose to divide land which is
subject to a contract entered into pursuant to the California Land Conservation Act of 1965.
SecgQn 29: That dedications required by local ordinance are shown on the tentative map and/or are
set forth in the conditions of approval attached hereto in Exhibit"A".
Section 21; That the City considered the effect of approval of the residential subdivision on the housing
needs of the region in which the City is situated and balanced these needs against the public service needs of
its residents and available fiscal and environmental resources.
a: For the foregoing reasons,and based on information and findings contained in the public
record.including staff reports,minutes,records of proceedings.and evidence presented at the public hearings,
the City.Council of the City of Rancho Palos Verdes hereby approves the revisions to Vesting Tentative Tract
Map No.50667,subject to:1)the conditions of approval attached in Exhibit"A",which are necessary to protect
the public health,safety and general welfare;2)the approval of revisions to Vesting Tentative Tract Map No.
50666,Conditional Use Permit Nos.162 and 163,and Grading Permit No.1541;and,3)approval of Addendum
No.5 to Environmental Impact Report No.36.

in Addendum No. 5 to EIR No. 36 and revised Mitigation Monitoring Program, and determined that the
documents were prepared in compliance with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act and
local guidelines,with respect thereto;and,
WHEREAS,on September 3,1996,after notice issued pursuant to the provisions of the Development
Code,the City Council held a public hearing to consider draft Addendum No.5 to Environmental Impact Report
No.36 and,the proposed Revision"C"to the Ocean Trails project,at which time all interested parties were given
an opportunity to be heard and present evidence.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES DOES
HEREBY FIND,DETERMINE,AND RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
4ection 1:In considering the proposed revisions to the project,the City Council has determined that
the preparation of Addendum No. 5 to Environmental Impact Report No. 36 is appropriate, since the
subsequent changes in the project will not result In any new significant environmental impacts which were not
previously identified and analyzed in Environmental Impact Report No.36,that the subsequent changes will
not result in an increase in any previously identified significant environmental impacts,that the Addendum does
not contain new information of substantial importance to the project and that only minor technical changes or
additions are necessary to make Environmental Impact Report adequate under the provisions of the California -
Environmental Quality Act(CEQA).
This is so,since the revised project will result in no significant change in the impacts identified in the
previous EIR. The relocation of two single family residential lots in Vesting Tentative Tract Map No.50667 from
the end of Street"A"(Lot Nos.34 and 35 on the previously approved plan)to the end of Street"C"(Lot Nos.
8 and 9 on the revised plan)and the revision to the golf course layout for Hole Nos.3,4 and 5 does not result
in any new or increased impacts to the environment,since these improvements would be located in areas of
the subject property that we're previously identified as part of the developed and/or graded portion of the project.
The reconfiguration to the boundaries of common open space Lots B,C,G and H does not result in any new
or increased impacts to the environment,since the minimum required lot sizes of these lots will be maintained
. and there will be no net decrease in the acreage of protected habitat. The conversion of the split-level lots to
single-pad lots In Vesting Tentative Tract Map No.50667 and the proposed changes to the maximum building
heights on some of these lots does not result in any new or increased impacts to the environment,since the
views of the ocean,Catalina Island and the coastline from Palos Verdes Drive South would not be adversely
impacted.
The proposed changes to the public trails in the project would not result in any new or increased
impacts to the environment,since 1)the realignment of the public trail from the La Rotonda parking lot to the
Resolution No.96-75
Page 3 of 6
97
Bluff Top Activity Corridor would increase the safety of the public using the lateral trail connection through the
golf course to the bluff top;2)the provision to allow shared use of certain segments of the public trail for golf
carts would.minimize the amount of pavement in these areas,minimize conflicts caused by crossing paths and
would not diminish public enjoyment of these trails;and,3)the combination of parallel pedestrian and bicycle
trails into a single easement would not change the physical configuration of the trails once they have been
constructed. The of a paved fire access road on the seaward side of the Ocean Terraces
Condominiums does not result in any new or increased impacts to the environment,since the paved road would
Improve public safety by providing all-weather access to the existing fire hydrants along the south side of the
condominium complex. The amendments to the Conditions of Approval and Mitigation Measures would not
result in any new or increased impacts to the environment,since these changes will not alter the effectiveness
of the Conditions of Approval and/or Mitigation Measures,and will act,Instead,to ensure that the project are
better monitored and the impacts are fully mitigated.
Therefore, based on the review of Draft Addendum No.5 to Environmental Impact Report No.36
prepared in association with the proposed revisions to the Ocean Trails project,as conditioned,the City Council
finds that the project still mitigates,or reduces to the extent feasible,significant adverse effects to adjacent
properties or the permitted uses thereof. In approving the revised project,the City Council finds that social,
recreational,and other benefits of the project continue to outweigh any unavoidable adverse environmental
impacts that may occur and that due to overriding benefits and considerations, any unavoidable adverse
environmental impacts of the project are acceptable. Accordingly,the City Council hereby incorporates into
this Resolution,by reference,the Final EIR No.36,the Supplemental EIR,Addenda Nos. 1 2,3 and 4,and
Resolution No.92-115(which includes,without limitation,the detailed statement of overriding considerations
set forth therein).
Section 2: Pursuant to Sections 17.08.030 and 17.56.060 of the Development Code,the City Council,
In approving the revisions to Conditional Use Permit No 182 to implement the Residential Planned
Development,finds as follows:
A. That the proposed uses are consistent with the General Plan and its objectives. The General Plan land
use Map designates almost the entire project site as Residential,with a maximum density of one
dwelling urif per acre,and shows the coastal bluffs as hazard areas. The General Plan provides for
additional commercial recreational uses within the City as appropriate to a particular location,including
golf,equestrian,tennis and other recreational activities,and designates the City's entire coastal area
as a specific plan district.
With 75 residential units on approximately 77.2 acres,the density is below one dwelling unit per acre
and,therefore,consistent with the General Plan.
Further, that the project complies with the criteria set forth In the General Plan for the Natural,
Soc lo/Cultural and Urban Overlay Control Districts on the site. As conditioned,the project preserves
natural drainage courses and significant geologic,biologic and hydrologic features in compliance with
the Natural Overlay Control District, protects areas that have significant historical,archeological or
cultural importance in compliance with the Sono/Cultural District and preserves, protects and
enhances public views and vistas in compliance with the Urban Overlay Control District.
B. That the proposed residential use is specifically permitted and the proposed residential density is
consistent with the Residential Single Family,One Dwelling Unit Per Acre(RS-1)zoning designation
and the requirements of a Residential Planned Development(RPD)special district,as shown on the
City's Official Zoning Map.
The project provides a minimum of thirty percent of the Residential Planned Development as common
open space,which open space is sited in a manner that is accessible to viewing by the general public
from public roads and walkways and preserves views to the coast.

C. That given the adjacent land uses and the project's location and design, as modified herein,and
conditions imposed through this permit,the 261.4 acre site is adequate in size and configuration to
accommodate the proposed uses including a Residential Planned Development, golf course and
public open space,and that the Residential Planned Development complies,or is conditioned to be
consistent with,the Development Standards contained in Development Code Section 17.08.040.
D. That given the adjacent land uses and the project's location and design,as modified herein,and the
conditions imposed by Conditional Use Permit No.. 163, as revised and attached hereto and
incorpotaited herein by reference,the site is adequate in lot size and configuration to accommodate
the golf course,clubhouse and related facilities.
E. That the site is served by Palos Verdes Drive South which Is an improved street designed to carry the
type and quantity of traffic that would be generated by the proposed project.
F. That,given the site location,project design,and conditions imposed through this permit and attached
hereto as Exhibit"A",including setbacks,heights,lighting,landscaping,fencing and other conditions,
the proposed use will not.significantly adversely affect the peace,health,safety,or general welfare of
the area,nor will it be materially detrimental to property values,jeopardize,endanger,or otherwise
constitute a menace to the public health,safety,and welfare of persons in the surrounding area.
G. That the proposed project.as conditioned,mitigates or reduces significant adverse effects to adjacent
properties or the permitted uses thereof. The City Council finds that the social,recreational,and other
benefits of the project outweigh any unavoidable adverse environmental Impacts that may occur. The
project implements the RS-1/RPD designation of the site as shown in the Official Zoning Map,General
Plan, and Coastal Specific Plan,while preserving a minimum of thirty(30)percent of each tract as
commorl.open space,exclusive of the golf course uses,with public parking,trails,and vista points that
will provide public recreational opportunities and preserve pubic vistas and habitat areas.
$ectiQn 3: The mitigation measures contained in the revised Mitigation Monitoring Program attached
as Exhibit"B"to Resolution No.96-72 are hereby incorporated by reference into the Conditions of Approval for
the revisions to Conditional Use Permit No.162.
Seyicn 4: For the forgoing reasons,and based on information and findings contained in the pubic
record, including Staff Reports, Minutes, records of proceedings, and evidence presented at the public
hearings,the City Council of the City of Rancho Palos Verdes hereby approves revisions to Conditional Use
Permit No.162,subjectto:1)the Conditions of Approval attached in Exhibit"A",which are necessary to protect
the public health,safety and general welfare;2)the approval of revisions to Vesting Tentative Tract Map Nos.
50666 and 50667, Conditional Use Permit No.163 and Grading Permit No. 1541;and. 3)approval of draft

in Addendum No. 5 to EIR No. 36 and revised Mitigation Monitoring Program, and determined that the
documents were prepared in compliance with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act and
local guidelines,with respect thereto;and,
WHEREAS.on September 3,1996,after notice issued pursuant to the provisions of the Development
Code,the City Council held a public hearing to consider draft Addendum No.5 to Environmental Impact Report
No.36 and the proposed Revision"C"to the Ocean Trails project.at which time all interested parties were given
an opportunity to be heard and present evidence.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES DOES
HEREBY FIND,DETERMINE,AND RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1: In considering the proposed revisions to the project,the City Council has determined that
the preparation of Addendum No. 5 to Environmental Impact Report No. 36 is appropriate, since the
subsequent changes in the project will not result in any new significant environmental impacts which were not
previously identified and analyzed in Environmental Impact Report No.36,that the subsequent changes will
not result in an increase in any previously identified significant environmental impacts,that the Addendum does
not contain new information of substantial importance to the project and that only minor technical changes or
additions are necessary to make Environmental Impact Report adequate under the provisions of the California
Environmental Quality Act(CEQA).
This is so,since the revised project will result in no significant change in the impacts identified in the
previous EIR. The relocation of two single family residential lots in Vesting Tentative Tract Map No.50667 from
the end of Street"A"(Lot Nos. 34 and 35 on the previously approved plan)to the end of Street"C"(Lot Nos.
8 and 9 on the revised plan)and the revision to the golf course layout for Hole Nos.3,4 and 5 does not result
in any new or increased impacts to the environment,since these improvements would be located in areas of
the subject property that were previously identified as part of the developed and/or graded portion of the project.
The reconfiguration to the boundaries of common open space Lots B,C,G and H does not result in any new
or increased impacts to the environment,since the minimum required lot sizes of these lots will be maintained
and there will be no net decrease in the acreage of protected habitat. The conversion of the split-level lots to
single-pad lots in Vesting Tentative Tract Map No.50667 and the proposed changes to the maximum building
heights on some of these lots does not result in any new or increased impacts to the environment,since the
views of the ocean. Catalina Island and the coastline from Palos Verdes Drive South would not be adversely
impacted.
Resolution No.96-76

wi
j
The proposed changes to the public trails in the project would not result In any new or increased
impacts to the environment,since 1)the realignment of the public trail from the La Rotonda parking lot to the
Sluff Top Activity Corridor would increase the safety of the public using the lateral trail connection through the
golf course to the bluff top;2)the provision to allow shared use of certain segments of the public trail for golf
cants would minimize the amount of pavement in these areas,minimize conflicts caused by crossing paths and
would not diminish public enjoyment of.these trails;and,3)the combination-of parallel pedestrian and bicycle
trails into a single easement would not change the physical configuration of the trails once they have been
constructed. The construction of a paved fire access road on the seaward side of the Ocean Terraces
Condominiums does not result in any new or increased impacts to the environment,since the paved road would
improve public safety by providing all-weather access to the existing fire hydrants along the south side of the
condominium complex. The amendments to the Conditions of Approval and Mitigation Measures would not
i
result In any new or increased impacts to the environment,since these changes will not alter the effectiveness
of the Conditions of Approval and/or Mitigation Measures,and will act,instead,to ensure that the project are
better monitored and the impacts are fully mitigated.
Therefore, based on the review of Draft Addendum No.5 to Environmental Impact Report No.36
prepared in association with the proposed Revision"C"to the Ocean Trails project, as conditioned,the City
Council finds that the project still mitigates, or reduces to the extent feasible, significant adverse effects to
adjacent properties or the permitted uses thereof. In approving the revised project,the City Council finds that
social, recreational, and other benefits of the project continue to outweigh any unavoidable adverse
environmental impacts that may occur and that due to overriding benefits and considerations,any unavoidable
adverse environmental impacts of the project are acceptable. Accordingly,the City Council recommends that
the City Council incorporate,by reference,the Final EIR No.36,the Supplemental EIR,Addenda Nos.1,2,3
and 4, and Resolution No. 92-115 (which includes,without limitation, the detailed statement of overriding
considerations set forth therein).
Soction 2*, Pursuant to Section 17.56.060 of the Development Code,the City Council,in approving the
revisions to Conditional Use Permit No.163 for the public golf course and related uses,finds as follows:
A. That the golf course and related uses are consistent with the General Plan and its objectives. The
General Plan land use map designates almost the entire project site as Residential,with a maximum
density of one dwelling unit per acre,and shows the coastal bluffs as hazard areas. The General Plan
provides for additional commercial recreational uses within the City as appropriate to a particular
location,including golf, equestrian,tennis and other recreational activities,and designates the City's
entire coastal area as a specific plan district.
Further, that the project complies with the criteria set forth in the General Plan for the Natural,
Socio/Cultural and Urban Overlay.Control Districts on the site. As conditioned,the project preserves
natural drainage courses and significant geologic,biologic and hydrologic features in compliance with
the Natural Overlay Control District, protects areas that have significant historical, archeological or
cultural Importance in compliance with the Socio/Cultural District and preserves, protects and
enhances public views and vistas in compliance with the Urban Overlay Control District.
B. That the proposed golf course use is consistent with the City's Development Code as a conditionally
permitted use in any district when deemed to be necessary or desirable for the public convenience or
welfare and when the use is not contrary to the General Plan Or its objectives or contrary to the Coastal
Specific Plan or its objectives and requirements. Public recreational uses,such as a golf course,are
encouraged by policies of the Coastal Specific Plan and General Plan. A public golf course is
necessary and desirable in that it will provide a cash surplus to the City,it will add to the views from
adjacent properties and from Palos Verdes Drive South,it will permit expanded public access to the
coast. Further,as current demand for golf tee times greatly exceeds supply for existing public golf
courses on the Peninsula,many peninsula and City residents must travel great distances to golf.
Resolution No.9646

The City Council hereby finds that the proposed golf course is necessary and desirable for the public
convenience and welfare and,as set forth in sections 2(A)&(B)above,it is not contrary to either the
General Plan or the Coastal Specific Plan.
C. That given the adjacent land uses and the project's location and design, as modified herein, and
recommended conditions imposed through this permit,the 261.4 acre site is adequate in size and
configuration to accommodate the proposed uses including a Residential Planned Development and
golf course.
D. That given the adjacent land uses and the project's location and design,as modified herein,and the
recommended conditions imposed by Conditional Use Permit No.163,attached hereto as Exhibit"A", •
the site is adequate in lot size and configuration to accommodate the golf course,clubhouse and
related facilities.
E. That the site is served by Palos Verdes Drive South which is an improved street designed to carry the
type and quantity of traffic that would be generated by the proposed project.
F. That,given the site location.project design,and recommended conditions imposed through this permit
and attached hereto as Exhibit"A",including setbacks,heights,lighting,landscaping,fencing,hours
of operation,and other recommended conditions.the proposed use will not significantly adversely
affect the peace,health.safety,or general welfare of the area,nor will it be materially detrimental to
property values,jeopardize.endanger,or otherwise constitute a menace to the public health,safety,
and welfare of persons in the surrounding area.
G. That the re-orientation of the service doors for the golf course maintenance facility, away from the
residences to the north in the Sea Cliff Hills tract and.away from the condominiums to the southeast
in the Ocean Terraces complex,and the inclusion of a solid block wall around the facility is intended
to further reduce the insignificant noise impacts to these adjacent uses that were previously identified
and analyzed in Environmental Impact Report No.36.
H. That the proposed project,as conditioned,mitigates or reduces significant adverse effects to adjacent
properties or the permitted uses thereof. In recommending approval.the City Council finds that the
social,recreational,and other benefits of the project outweigh any unavoidable adverse environmental
impacts that may occur. The project provides visitor-serving uses in the coastal zone and,as a floating
commercial use,the proposed golf course complies with permitted uses in the RS-1/RPD and zone
as shown in the Official Zoning Map,and with permitted single family residential uses as designated
in the General Plan. and Coastal Specific Flan,while preserving and enhancing habitat areas and
providing passive and active recreational uses with a bluff road.public parking,trails.and vista points
that will provide public recreational opportunities and preserve public vistas.
Section 3: The mitigation measures contained in the revised Mitigation Monitoring Program attached
as Exhibit"B"to Resolution No.96-72 are hereby incorporated by reference into the Conditions of Approval for
the revisions to Conditional Use Permit No. 163.
Section 4: For the forgoing reasons, and based on information and findings contained in the public
record, including Staff Reports. Minutes, records of proceedings, and evidence presented at the public
hearings,the City Council of the City of Rancho Palos Verdes hereby approves revisions to Conditional Use
Permit No.163,subject to:1)the Conditions of Approval attached in Exhibit"A",which are necessary to protect
the public health,safety and general welfare:2)the approval of revisions to Vesting Tentative Tract Map No.
50666 and 50667,Conditional Use Permit No. 162 and Grading Permit No. 1541 ; and.3) approval of draft
Addendum No.5 to Environmental Impact Report No.36.

G. OpER4TIOtOF THE GOLF COURSE
1. Approval of this Conditional Use Permit is contingent upon the concurrent and continuous operation
of the primary components of the project,which are the golf course and clubhouse. If either use is
discontinued,this Conditional Use Permit will be null and void. If the landowner or the landowner's
successor in interest seeks to change the uses which have been designated,the landowner must
file an application for a major modification of the Conditional Use Permit with the City. At that time,
the Planning Commission may impose such conditions as it deems necessary upon the proposed
use and may consider all issues relevant to the proposed change of use,including,but not limited
to,whether the entire Conditional Use Permit should be revoked.

96-27,thereby recommending approval of Addendum No.5 to EIR.No.36 and recommending approval of the
revisions to Tentative Tract Map Nos. 50666 and 50667 to the City Council, and approving revisions to-
Conditional Use Permit Nos. 162 and 163 and Grading Permit No.1541;and,
WHEREAS,on August 31,1996,copies of the Addendum No.5 to Environmental Impact Report No.
36 were distributed to the City Council and prior to taking action on the proposed Revision"C"to the Ocean
Trails project.the City Council independently reviewed and considered the information and findings contained
in Addendum No. 5 to EIR No. 36 and revised Mitigation Monitoring Program, and determined that the
documents were prepared incompliance with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act and
local guidelines,with respect thereto;and,
WHEREAS,on September 3,1996,after notice issued pursuant to the provisions of the Development
Code,the City Council held a public hearing to consider draft Addendum No.5 to Environmental Impact Report
No.36 and the proposed Revision"C"to the Ocean Trails project,at which time all interested parties were given
an opportunity to be heard and present evidence.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES DOES
HEREBY FIND,DETERMINE,AND RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
SSc qn 1,: In considering the proposed revisions to the project,the City Council has determined that
the preparation of Addendum No. 5 to Environmental Impact Report No. 36 is appropriate, since the
subsequent changes in the project will not result in any new significant environmental impacts which were not
previously identified and analyzed in Environmental Impact Report No.36,that the subsequent changes will
not result in an increase in any previously identified significant environmental impacts,that the Addendum does
not contain new information of substantial importance to the project and that only minor technical changes or
additions are necessary to make Environmental Impact Report adequate under the provisions of the California
Environmental Quality Act(CEQA).
This is so,since the revised project will result in no significant change in the impacts identified in the
previous EIR. The relocation of two single family residential lots in Vesting Tentative Tract Map No.50667 from
the end of Street"A"(Lot Nos.34 and 35 on the previously approved plan)to the end of Street"C"(Lot Nos.
8 and 9 on the revised plan)and the revision to the golf course layout for Hole Nos.3,4 and 5 does not result
in any new or increased impacts to the environment,since these improvements would be located in areas of
the subject property that were previously identified as part of the developed and/or graded portion of the project.
The reconfiguration to the boundaries of common open space Lots B.C,G and H does not result In any new
or increased impacts to the environment,since the minimum required lot sizes of these lots will be maintained
and there will be no net decrease in the acreage of protected habitat. The conversion of the split-level lots to
single-pad lots in Vesting Tentative Tract Map No.50667 and the proposed changes to the maximum building
heights on some of these lots does not result in any new or increased impacts to the environment,since the
views of the ocean,Catalina Island and the coastline from Palos Verdes Drive South would not be adversely
impacted.
The proposed changes to the public trails in the project would not result in any new or increased
impacts to the environment,since 1)the realignment of the public trail from the La Rotonda parking lot to the
Resolution No.96-77
Page 3 of 5
97 1929840
Bluff Top Activity Corridor would increase the safety of the public using the lateral trail connection through the
golf course to the bluff top;2)the provision to allow shared use of certain segments of the public trail for golf
carts would minimize the amount of pavement in these areas.minimize conflicts caused by crossing paths and
would not diminish public enjoyment of these trails;and, 3)the combination of parallel pedestrian and bicycle
trails into a single easement would not change the physical configuration of the trails once they have been
constructed. The construction of a paved fire access road on the seaward side of the Ocean Terraces
Condominiums does not result in any new or increased impacts to the environment,since the paved road would
improve public safety by providing all-weather access to the existing fire hydrants along the south side of the
condominium complex. The amendments to the Conditions of Approval and Mitigation Measures would not
result in any new or increased impacts to the environment.since these changes will not alter the effectiveness
of the Conditions of Approval and/or Mitigation Measures.and will act.instead,to ensure that the project ate
better monitored and the impacts are fully mitigated.
Therefore, based on the review of Draft Addendum No. 5 to Environmental Impact Report No. 36
prepared in association•with the proposed Revision"C"to the Ocean Trails project.as conditioned,the City
Council finds that the project stilt mitigates, or reduces to the extent feasible, significant adverse effects to
adjacent properties or the permitted uses thereof. In approving the revised project,the City Council finds that
social. recreational, and other benefits of the project continue to outweigh any unavoidable adverse
environmental impacts that may occur and that due to overriding benefits and considerations,any unavoidable
adverse environmental impacts of the project are acceptable. Accordingly,the City Council recommends that
the City Council incorporate. by reference.the Final EIR No. 36.the Supplemental EIR,Addenda Nos. 1,2.3
and 4. and Resolution No. 92-115 (which includes. without limitation. the detailed statement of overriding
considerations set forth therein).
Section Z:Pursuant to Section 17.50.070 of the Development Code.the City Council.in approving the
revisions to Grading Permit No. 1541,finds as follows:
A. That the grading associated with the project is not excessive beyond that necessary for the permitted
primary use of the property, since the grading has been limited to that necessary to (I) create the
residential lots in such a fashion that development of homes on the lots will not adversely impact public
and private views, (ii) construct a links-style golf course in which preservation of natural open space
is maadmized and to make improvements to Palos Verdes Drive South which are necessary for safety
reasons. In addition.grading will be balanced on the site with no export of excavated material.
B. That the grading and/or construction does not significantly adversely effect the visual relationships with,
nor the views from neighboring sites.since the 18-hole golf course is designed to conform with existing
topography, to the fullest extent possible. and the grading for the residential lots will lower pad
elevations to preserve views•from adjacent properties and visual corridors identified in the Coastal
Specific Plan when viewed from Palos Verdes Drive South and adjacent properties.
C. That the nature Otte grading minimizes disturbance to the natural contours.and finished contours are
reasonably natural, since the majority of the project site will conform with the existing gently sloping
topography,with a significant portion remaining as undeveloped open space.
Section 3: The mitigation measures contained in the revised Mitigation Monitoring Program attached
as Exhibit"B"to Resolution No.96-72 are hereby incorporated by reference into the Conditions of Approval
for the revisions to Grading Permit No. 1541.
Section 4: For the forgoing reasons,and based on information and findings contained in the public
record, including Staff Reports. Minutes. records of proceedings, and evidence presented at the public
hearings,the City Council of the City of Rancho Palos Verdes hereby approves revisions to Grading Permit No.
1541,subject to:1)the Conditions of Approval attached in Exhibit"A".which are necessary to protect the public
health.safety and general welfare:2)the approval of revisions to Vesting Tentative Tract Map No.50666 and
Resolution No.96-77

WHEREAS, the City Council has approved subsequent revisions to the project
as memorialized by the resolutions approving such revisions, the most recent of which
occurred on September 3, 1996; and,
WHEREAS, the conditions of approval for the project require that the landowner
submit a"detailed, final" Public Amenities Plan for review and approval by the City prior
to the issuance of grading permit for the project or recordation of the Final Map,
whichever occurs first. The Conditions further require that the final Public Amenities
Plan be in substantial conformance with program approved by the City in August 1994
arid stipulate that the landowner is responsible for the implementation and construction
• of all the amenities included in the final Public Amenities Plan; and,
WHEREAS, the level of detail provided in the 1996 Public Amenities Plan is not
sufficient to qualify the document as a "detailed" Public Amenities Plan. However, the

A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES APPROVING REVISION
"D" TO CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 162 FOR A
RESIDENTIAL PLANNED DEVELOPMENT IN CONNECTION
WITH THE OCEAN TRAILS PROJECT (VESTING
TENTATIVE TRACT MAP NO. 50667 AND TENTATIVE
PARCEL MAP NO. 23004), LOCATED IN COASTAL
SUBREGIONS 7 AND 8
WHEREAS, the City approved the Ocean Trails project, including Conditional Use
Permit No. 162, in June 1992, re-approved the project in December 1992, and approved
subsequent revisions to the project in October 1 993, September 1994 (Revision "A"),
March 1996 (Revision "B") and September 1 996 (Revision "C"), respectively; and,
WHEREAS, several of the residential lots in Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 50667
are located on the south side of La Rotonda Drive and will back onto the East Bluff
Preserve. The East Bluff Preserve is a 7.7 acre P arcel that will be dedicated to the City
in order to preserve and enhance Coastal Sage Scrub habitat, which supports the
California gnatcatcher and several other sensitive native plant and animal species. Since
many of the plant species found in Coastal Sage Scrub are also highly combustible and,
therefore, a fuel source for brush fires, the project was conditioned in December 1992 to
required a fire break to be created between the residential lots and the preserve area.
Common Open Space Lot H, was added to the project prior to the City's approval of the
project in December 1992 to provide the fire break area. It was believed at the time that
the Los Angeles County Fire Department had reviewed and approved the revised design
of the subdivision. However, during subsequent review of the tract layout as part of the
issuance of the grading permit for the project, the Fire Department raised a concern that
the width of the fire break was not adequate to buffer the proposed residences from
potential brush fires that may occur in the adjacent habitat area; and,
WHEREAS, in order to provide the minimum 100 foot buffer between the flammable
Coastal Sage Scrub plants and the proposed residences, Staff, the developer and the Fire
Department have agreed that the best course of action to satisfy the Fire Department's
concerns at this time was to seek an amendment the Conditions of Approval for
Conditional Use Permit No. 162 to increase the minimum rear yard setback requirements
for Lot Nos. 6 through 9; and,
WHEREAS, on September 9, 1997, after notice issued pursuant to the provisions
of the Development Code, the Planning Commission held a public hearing to consider the
proposed Revision "0" to Conditional Use Permit No. 162, at which time all interested
parties were given an opportunity to be heard and present evidence.
