CC RES 2008-116 RESOLUTION NO. 2008-116
A RESOLUTION OF APPLICATION BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
RANCHO PALOS VERDES REQUESTING THE LOCAL AGENCY
FORMATION COMMISSION TO INITIATE PROCEEDINGS FOR THE
REORGANIZATION OF TERRITORY.
WHEREAS, on October 21, 2008, the City Council of the City of Rancho Palos Verdes
conditionally approved an application for a 28-unit residential condominium project on an
undeveloped 1.25-acre site, of which a 440-square-foot portion lies within the corporate
boundaries of the City of Rolling Hills Estates, a municipal corporation; and,
WHEREAS, the City of Rancho Palos Verdes desires to initiate proceedings pursuant to
the Cortese-Knox-Hertzberg Local Government Reorganization Act of 2000, commencing with
Section 56000 of the California Government Code, for a reorganization which would
concurrently annex territory to the City of Rancho Palos Verdes and detach territory from the
City of Rolling Hills Estates; and,
WHEREAS, notice of intent to adopt this Resolution of application has been given in
accordance with the provisions of Section 56157 of the California Government Code, and this
City Council has conducted a public hearing on December 2, 2008, based upon this notification;
and,
WHEREAS, the principal reasons for the proposed reorganization are as follows: to
allow the development of the approved residential condominium project to occur wholly within
the corporate boundaries of the City of Rancho Palos Verdes so as to simplify and maximize the
efficiency of providing public services to the future residents of the project; to facilitate the timely
development of two (2) new dwelling units that will be affordable to very-low-income families,
which are required as a part of the approved residential condominium project; and to correct an
apparent error in the logical placement of a portion of the corporate boundary between the City
of Rancho Palos Verdes and the City of Rolling Hills Estates; and,
WHEREAS, the following agency or agencies would be affected by the proposed
jurisdictional changes:
Agency Nature of Change
City of Rancho Palos Verdes Annexation of 0.010 acre
City of Rolling Hills Estates Detachment of 0.010 acre
and,
WHEREAS, the territory proposed to be reorganized is uninhabited, and a map and
description of the boundaries of the territory are attached hereto as Exhibits `A' and B',
respectively, and by this reference incorporated herein; and,
WHEREAS, it is desired to provide that the proposed reorganization be subject to the
following terms and conditions: all mitigation measures adopted in conjunction with the
certification of the Mitigated Negative Declaration approved by the City Council of the City of
Rancho Palos Verdes pursuant to Resolution No. 2008-101 on October 21, 2008; and all
conditions of approval for Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 68796, General Plan Amendment, Zone
Change, Conditional Use Permit, Grading Permit and Density Bonus (Planning Case Nos. SUB2007-
00003 and ZON2007-00072) approved by the City Council of the City of Rancho Palos Verdes
pursuant to Resolution No. 2008-102 on October 21, 2008; and,
WHEREAS, this proposal is not consistent with the adopted spheres of influence for all
of the agencies which would be affected by reorganization, so this request also includes
amendments to the spheres of influence of the cities of Rancho Palos Verdes and Rolling Hills
Estates; and,
WHEREAS, this City Council of the City of Rancho Palos Verdes certifies that, pursuant
to the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act, Public Resources Code Section 21000 et.
seq. ("CEQA"), the State's CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Section 15000 et.
seq., the City's Local CEQA Guidelines, and Government Code Section 65962.5(F) (Hazardous Waste
and Substances Statement), the City of Rancho Palos Verdes revised the Initial Study and determined
that, by incorporating mitigation measures into the Negative Declaration, there is no substantial evidence
that the approval of Planning Case Nos. SUB2007-00003 and ZON2007-00072 as revised would
result in a significant adverse effect on the environment. Accordingly, a Revised Draft Mitigated
Negative Declaration was prepared and circulated for public review for twenty(20) days between July 2,
2008 and July 22, 2008, and notice of that fact was given in the manner required by law; and,
NOW, THEREFORE, this Resolution of Application is hereby adopted and approved by
the City Council of the City of Rancho Palos Verdes, and the Local Agency Formation
Commission of Los Angeles County is hereby requested to take proceedings for the annexation
of territory as authorized and in the manner provided by the Cortese-Knox-Hertzberg Local
Government Reorganization Act of 2000.
