AGENDA ITEM NO. 17 CITY OF HAWTHORNE CITY COUNCIL AGENDA BILL For the meeting of October 23, 2018 Originating Department: Planning and Community Development Interim City Manager: Arnold Shadbehr Dir. Of Planning: Brian James A request to change the zoning designation of an 11.22-acre parcel located at 15000 Aviation Boulevard (APN 4149-011-916) to remove the Mixed-Use Overlay. The proposal would change the Zoning Map for the property from the Regional Commercial-Mixed Use Overlay (CR-MU) zone to the Regional Commercial (CR) zone. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Approve Ordinance 2167 (Second Reading). NOTICING PROCEDURES: Posting of Agenda Only. FISCAL IMPACT: None. REPORT: A. Background and Introduction The project site is an 11.22-acre parcel located on the northeast corner of Aviation Boulevard and Marine Avenue (Attachment 1). As shown in Attachment 2, the property contains a six-story office building that was designed in 1966 by Cesar Pelli and Anthony Lumsden of Daniel Mann Johnson & Mendenhall (DMJM) and built in 1973. The building is listed on the National Register for Historic Places because it was the first-designed Southern California 1

building to utilize a mirrored skin. The office building is 216,102 gross square feet (168,874 usable square feet) with parking for 635 vehicles. The building was the west coast headquarters of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and is now being sold by the U.S. General Services Administration at auction (date to be determined). In terms of the historic zoning designations for the property, the site was zoned for Heavy Industrial (M-2) prior to 2002. On September 2, 2002, The City approved Ordinance 1758 that changed the zoning designation from Heavy Industrial (M-2) to Freeway Commercial-Mixed Use (C1-MU). This designation allowed two possibilities: 1) Develop the site for regional, freeway-oriented commercial uses intended to attract large amounts of visitors, such as hotels, regional shopping centers and large office complexes; or 2) develop the site for high-density residential (30 du/ac). On June 14, 2011, the City approved Ordinance 1998, which implemented the Mixed-Use Overlay zone. The Mixed- Use Overlay zone allows two possibilities: 1) develop the site for regional commercial uses per the underlying zone; or 2) develop the site with a combination of commercial and residential uses (30 du/ac). The property is currently zoned Regional Commercial-Mixed Use Overlay (CR- MU) and has a General Plan Designation of Regional Commercial (CR). The existing designations allow either a purely commercial use or a combination of commercial in conjunction with residential uses (30 du/ac). B. Project Description and Analysis As shown on Attachment 3, the proposed project consists of removing the Mixed-Use Overlay (MU) zone from the property. The property would thus be zoned Regional Commercial (CR). The proposed change of zone would accomplish the following: 1. Reflect existing use and development. 2. Allow re-use or redevelopment of the site as a purely commercial use. 3. Eliminate the potential to develop the site with a combination of commercial and residential (30 du/ac) uses. 4. Allow the City to maximize the economic and employment opportunity afforded by a large commercial parcel located on a major intersection that is surrounded by offices and residential uses. 2

5. Create direct conformity between the General Plan and Zoning Maps. With approval of the change of zone, both the General Plan and Zoning Maps would designate the property as regional commercial. It should be emphasized that the existing Mixed-Use Overlay zone allows the option to develop a portion of the site with residential uses and does not mandate that residential uses be developed. Under the Mixed-Use Overlay zone, future developers may opt to develop the site in a purely commercial manner using the underlying Regional Commercial zone or can choose to utilize the Mixed-Use Overlay and develop both commercial and residential uses on the site. It should also be emphasized that he underlying Regional Commercial zone that applies to the site today would not change with the proposal and the standards and allowable uses of the Regional Commercial zone would remain unchanged. As of the writing of this report, the auction date has not been set. Consequently, the intended use and/or desired alternations to the property are unknown. At this point, Staff cannot speculate on the exact process for the future use or redevelopment of the site since that will vary depending upon the proposal. For instance, if the future owner desires to simply reuse the building as an office, all that may be required is a business license along with any permits for interior improvements. Whereas the redevelopment of the site would trigger a conditional use permit (CUP) permit process if the floor-area-ratio is greater than 1.0 or the height is greater than two stories. Any alternations to the site will have to comply with the standards and processes of the HMC and the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). In addition, any future redevelopment or alterations to the site will be required to address potential impacts to the adjacent residences in terms of the physical design (e.g. landscape buffering, setbacks, location and direction of lighting, traffic, and noise) and operation (e.g. hours of operation, maintenance hours, and special events). Under Federal Law, the listing of a property in the National Register places no restrictions on what a non-federal owner may do with their property up to and including destruction, unless the property is involved in a project that receives Federal assistance, usually funding or licensing/permitting, or if preservation of the building is made a requirement of the sale. The State historic preservation office (SHPO) will also need to be contacted prior to any proposed redevelopment of the site or alteration to the building. C. General Plan Consistency The proposed change of zone is consistent with the following Goals and Policies of the City s General Plan: 3

GOAL 1: The City shall expand current efforts to attract and enhance commercial development. POLICY 1.5: The City shall continue to explore and adopt ways to use its assets to promote commercial activity within the City. GOAL 3: A sound local economy which attracts investment, increase tax base, creates employment opportunities for Hawthorne residents and generates public revenues POLICY 3.5: Revitalization of declining commercial and industrial areas through new development, rehabilitation and other means that may be available shall be considered and, if deemed advantageous, implemented. POLICY 3.9: The City shall continue to explore and adopt ways to use its assets to promote fiscal health of the city s government so that vital services are maintained and improved to adapt to changing needs of the citizens and businesses. The Ordinance would ensure that the Zoning Map is consistent with the General Plan Map and that both reflect a desired land use that is commercial in nature. The Ordinance would eliminate the potential to develop a portion of the site as residential and allow the reuse or redevelopment of the 11-acre site located on a major intersection with business uses, such as retail and professional office, which promote the fiscal health of the City, increase employment opportunities in the region, and improve commercial activity. The project site is not located on property that was used to satisfy any portion of the City s Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA). Accordingly, the loss of residential uses that could have been permitted under the Mixed-Use Overlay will not result in a net-loss of affordable housing opportunities and the remaining housing sites identified in the Housing Element are adequate to accommodate the City s share of the regional housing need. D. Planning Commission and City Council Hearings On September 19, 2018, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing and unanimously adopted PC Resolution 2018-13 (Attachment 4) recommending that the City Council approve Change of Zone application 2018CZ02. The Planning Commission directed Staff to provide them with a future discussion item exploring the creation of a new Mixed-Use Overlay zone with a reduced residential density (e.g. 15 to 20 units per acre instead of 30 units per acre). 4

On October 3, 2018, the City Council conducted a duly noticed public hearing and introduced Ordinance 2167. E. Environmental Analysis The proposed Change of Zone application constitutes a project within the scope of CEQA and the City s CEQA Guidelines. Staff has determined that the proposed Ordinance is exempt from further review under CEQA. Pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15305, the proposed Ordinance is covered by a Class 5 Categorical Exemption (Minor Alternations in Land Use Limitations) for actions that do not change the land uses allowed on areas of slopes greater than 20% and do not change allowable land uses in a manner that could create a potentially significant impact on the environment. The Ordinance would change the land use designation on flat land and would remove residential development as a permitted land use on the property. The adoption of this Ordinance will not result in cumulative adverse environmental impacts or any other potentially significant impact described in State CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2. The Ordinance is therefore exempt from the provisions of CEQA. Upon City Council s action, Staff will file the Notice of Exemption (Attachment 5) with the Los Angeles County Clerk s office in compliance with CEQA. ATTACHMENTS: 1. Vicinity Map 2. Site Photos 3.
