WHEREAS, on March 11, 1996, the City Council of the City of Rancho Palos Verdes adopted
Resolution No. 96-15 approving the fourth Addendum to Environmental Impact Report No. 36, in connection
with approval of revisions to the Ocean Trails project applications described above, in order to incorporate
changes to the project made by the California Coastal Commission in January 1995 regarding the relocation
of the golf course clubhouse, Paseo del Mar roadway and public trails to accommodate a reconfiguration of
the public parking facilities, as well as additional modifications to the public trails in order to provide clarification
or to be consistent with the California Coastal Commission's approval and to include an 8 5 acre vacant
property owned by the Palos Verdes Peninsula Unified School District into the golf course.
WHEREAS, on August 13, 1996, after notice issued pursuant to the provisions of the Development
Code, the Planning Commission held a public hearing to consider draft Addendum No 5 to Environmental
Impact Report No 36 and the proposed Revisions to the Ocean Trails project, at which time all interested
parties were given an opportunity to be heard and present evidence, and,
WHEREAS, prior to taking action on the proposed Revisions to the Ocean Trails project, the Planning
Commission considered the information and findings contained in Addendum No 5 to EIR No 36 and the
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.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES
DOES HEREBY FIND, DETERMINE, AND RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
Section 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 EIR, 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
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
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 alternatives 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 EIR, rather than the preparation
of a subsequent or supplemental EIR, is appropriate for the consideration of the proposed revisions to the
Ocean Trails project.
Section 3 In recommending approval of the Addendum No 5 to EIR No 36, the Planning Commission
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 EIR No. 36, as a result of the proposed revisions to the
Ocean Trails project

Section 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. That, 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 Nos 92-53, 92-115, 93-89, 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 For the foregoing reasons and based on the information and findings contained in the Staff
Report, minutes, and evidence presented at the public hearings, the Planning Commission of the City of
Rancho Palos Verdes hereby recommends approval of the Addendum No 5 to Environmental Impact Report
No 36 to the City Council, based on the determination that the document was completed in compliance with
the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act and Sate and local guidelines with respect thereto

Exhibit "A"
ADDENDUM NO 5
TO
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT NO. 36
The Planning Commission 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 "K (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 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
