April 21,2000 to June 5,2000. During the circulation period,the City received 16 comments on the DSEIR.
As required by the California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA),the City prepared and distributed responses
to those comments at least 10 days prior to the public hearing scheduled for June 21, 2000. The"Response
to Comments Report" has been incorporated into the Final Supplemental EIR(FSEIR); and,
WHEREAS,on June 15, 2000, copies of the FSEIR were distributed to the City Council and prior to
taking action on the proposed Revision "L" to the Ocean Trails project, the City Council independently
reviewed and considered the information and findings contained in the FSEIR to EIR No. 36; and,
WHEREAS, on June 21, 2000, after notice issued pursuant to the provisions of the Development
Code,the City Council held a public hearing to consider the FSEIR to EIR No. 36 and the proposed Revision
"L"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: This application would permit a revision(Revision"L")to Conditional Use Permit No. 163,
allowing the repair of Landslide C,which was reactivated on June 2, 1999.
Section 2: In considering the proposed revision to the project,the City Council has determined
that the Final EIR("FEIR")for the proposed project is now comprised of certified FEIR No. 36, the prior
supplement to FEIR No. 36 and all of the addenda thereto which have been approved by the City,the staff
report that was prepared for the June 21, 2000 City Council meeting, the Final Supplemental EIR(FSEIR),
including any revisions thereto and appendices;the list of persons, organizations and public agencies
which commented on certified FEIR No. 36 and the FSEIR; the comments which were received by the City
regarding FEIR No. 36.
Further,the City Council finds, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15084(e), that certified
FSEIR No. 27 has been independently reviewed and analyzed by the City Council and its Staff,and that
said document represents the independent judgment of the City as lead agency with respect to the
Project.
Additionally,with respect to the potential significant environmental effects identified in the FSEIR
to FEIR No. 36, the City Council finds as follows:
1. The FSEIR identifies potential significant environmental impacts related to geology, air quality,
biological resources, hazards and aesthetics. However, as noted in the FSEIR, these can be
Resolution No.2000-39
Page 4 of 7
mitigated to below a level of significance. The specific mitigation measures are found within
the attached Mitigation Monitoring Program for the FSEIR(Exhibit A).
2. The FSEIR indicates that short-term noise impacts related to construction outside of the
permissible construction hours are significant and adverse, even after they have been
mitigated to the extent feasible. As a Statement of Overriding Considerations has been
adopted by the City Council.
3. FSEIR indicates that the proposed project is anticipated to contribute to a significant adverse
cumulative impact related to short-term air quality. As such, a Statement of Overriding
Considerations has been adopted.
Section 3: Pursuant to Section 17.56.060 of the Development Code, in approving Revision "J"to
Conditional Use Permit No. 163 for the public golf course and related uses,the City Council 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.The repair of landslide C will not alter the uses of the
property that were approved previously and will restore these uses back to a usable condition that
is consistent with the General Plan as noted above.
Further,that the Landslide Repair 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.The City Council hereby finds that the proposed golf course is necessary and desirable for the
public convenience and welfare and is not contrary to either the General Plan or the Coastal Specific
Plan.The Repair of Landslide C will not alter the uses of the property that were approved previously
and will restore the public golf course use, public trails and public parks back to a usable condition.
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, and the repair of the landslide, especially given the limited duration of the landslide repair
work(approximately six months).
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
Resolution No.2000-39
Page 5 of 7
related facilities and the repair of the landslide, especially given the limited duration of the landslide
repair work(approximately six months).
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. That the construction
traffic related to the repair of Landslide C is less than the construction related traffic identified in the
original project and therefore will not significantly increase vehicle trips on the street system in the
vicinity of the project site or create significant traffic congestion on these roads.
F. That, given the site location,the limited duration of the landslide repair work and the distance of the
location of the landslide from adjacent residences, the project design, and the recommended
conditions imposed through this permit and the mitigation measures imposed through the Mitigation
Monitoring Program for the Landslide Repair, 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 proposed project,as conditioned, mitigates or reduces significant adverse effects to adjacent
properties or the permitted uses thereof to the extent feasible. In approving the landslide repair
project, the City Council finds that the social, recreational, and other benefits of the Landslide Repair
project outweigh any unavoidable adverse, short-term environmental impacts to noise and air quality
that may occur during the period when the repair work is being performed. The Landslide Repair will
restore the usability of 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 Plan,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. In the absence of the landslide repair,the public
trails traversing the landslide will not be restored, and the dangerous condition caused by the
landslide will not be corrected,which will adversely affect the ability of the public to use the site and
the beach below the landslide.
Section 6: The mitigation measures contained in the Mitigation Monitoring Program attached as
Exhibit"A"to Resolution No. 2000-38 are hereby incorporated by reference into the Conditions of Approval
for the revisions to Conditional Use Permit No. 163.
Section 7: The time within which the judicial review of the decision reflected in this Resolution, if
available, must be sought is governed by Section 1094.6 of the California Code of Civil Procedure or other
applicable short periods of limitation.
Section 8: 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 Revision "L"to Conditional
Use Permit No. 163 for the Repair to Landslide C,which is necessary to protect the public health, safety and
general welfare. Except as expressly amended hereby, all other conditions of approval that have been
imposed on this project shall remain in effect and are incorporated herein.
