WHEREAS, on August 28, 2002, the City Council conditionally approved Conditional Use Permit No. 215, Grading Permit No. 2229, Coastal Development Permit No. 166, Variance No. 489, And Tentative Parcel Map No. 26073 to allow the construction of a 400 -room resort hotel and bungalows with banquet and retail facilities, 50 casitas (3 -keys for 150 total units), 32 villas, and a driving range with a 3 -hole golf practice facility on property located at 6610 Palos Verdes Drive South; and WHEREAS, the City Council's decision was subsequently appealed to the Coastal Commission, who after conducting several public hearing, on August 7, 2003 approved the hotel project with minor modifications to the City Council approved conditions; and WHEREAS, on October 7, 2003, the City Council accepted the modified conditions of approval as the final approval and directed the applicant (Destination Development) to provide the Council with future quarterly updates on the status of the project; and WHEREAS, on June 1, 2004, the project applicant presented the Council with its first update, reporting that in order to secure financing for the project, the project conditions would need to be amended to allow a portion of the hotel rooms and bungalows to be sold to private individuals and entities; and WHEREAS, on June 15, 2004, the applicant formally filed a revision request to the project approved conditional use permit, grading permit, coastal development permit, and tentative parcel map to allow 50 of the hotel rooms (total of 66 keys) and 20 bungalows (40 keys) to be sold to private individuals and entities. Additionally, the applicant proposed that a 1% property transfer fee be established along with a non - profit corporation to receive, manage and disburse the proceeds generated by the fee; and WHEREAS, the City Council reviewed and analyzed the applicant's request in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act ( "CEQA ") and determined that the proposed revision to the project's approved conditions of approval will require an Addendum to the Final Environmental Impact Report ( "FEIR "), which was certified by the City Council on May 7, 2002 under Resolution No. 2002 -38, determining that the project's cumulative impacts, with the exception of the impacts related to Noise and Air Quality, are not significant or that the potential impacts could be mitigated to a less than significant impact.
