RESIDENTIAL SUBDIVISION |NTHE DEPARTMENT (3FWATER
AND POWER SPECIFIC PLAN AREA
THE SEAL BEACH CITY COUNCIL HEREBY FINDS, DETERMINES
AND RESOLVES:
Section 1. Bay City Partners ("Applicant") submitted an application for
approval of Tentative Tract Map 17425 ("TTM 17425^) 0o subdivide the northerly
4.5 acres of the property commonly known as the DVVP site ("site") into 48
residential |cka. To effectuate the application, the City nf Seal Beach ("City")
General Plan. the DWP Specific Plan and official Zoning Map need to be
amended.
u. The area proposed Unbe subdivided is part nfa 10.3-aom
site that includes the currently vacant DYVP site including portions ofdhoSam
Gabriel River and associated bike trail, and portions of an adjacent parcel that is
currently developed with o|ogu| non-conforming single family residence and a
commercial facility.
b. The Gonond Plan Land Use Map depicts the site aoOpen
Space and the text of the General Plan states that the property can be developed
in accordance with the 0VVP Specific P|an, which contains the following
designations: a visitor serving hotel on the northerly portion of the DWP site; and
open space on the southerly portion of the mite. Thus, prior to subdividing the
property as noquaa1ed. the General Plan and the DVVP Specific Plan would
therefore have to be amended *o ensure that the Project ia consistent with the
General Plan and Specific Plan.
C. Surrounding land uses include residential, commercial,
public beach, and recreational/open space uses. To the north are the River
Beach Town Homes, zoned Residential High Density 33 ("RHD 33"), and Marina
Park. To the east is ON Town Seal Beach. zoned Residential High Density 20
("RHD20"). To the south io the public beach and beach parking lot. To the west
is the San Gabriel River and associated bike trail.
Section 2. On February 6. 2012' the City's Subdivision Technical
Review Committee considered TTM 17425 at public meetings and accepted
public input regarding the proposed map.
Section 3. On May 2. 2012 and June G. 2012. the Planning
Commission held two duly noticed public hearings on the application. /m the first
public hearing, the Applicant submitted a revised TTM 17425 that, among other
things, changed the orientation ofa number of the proposed lots.
Section 4. After considering all the evidence presented m8 the two public
hearings, the Planning Commission adopted Planning Commission Resolution
12-9' recommending that the City Council certify the Final E(R, adopt the
Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for the Pn4ect, and approve the
Project, inclusive of the Applicant's revised tract map and subject to such
additional conditions and recommendations specified in the eso|ution. The
additional conditions included: (a) reduced density; (b) larger lots; (o) all
residential lots must bo northerly of the prolongation cd the northerly
of Central Way; (d) reduction of the lots adjacent oothe San Gabriel River; and
(e) public ntna+tm and o||oym. Pursuant to the Planning Commission's
reoommnnUationm, the applicant submitted a third TTk4 17425, for a 32-lot
subdivioion, with the following features. TTK8 17425, as revood, is attached
hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated by this reference as though set forth in full.
TTM 17425, as revised, includes the following:
12805*002n"956v6A=
a. TTM 17425 would allow development of 32 single family
detached single family units on approximately 4.5 acres inthe northern portion of
the project site. The Applicant would construct the finished pads and all
infrastructure necessary to serve the new residential development in a single
phase. Residential units would be developed individually byhomeowners as
custom homes, depending on market conditions and demand. Vehicle access to
the residential development would be via newly constructed public streets from
Marina Drive and First Street and public internal alleyways.
b. The footprint of residential development depicted in Exhibit B
would be approximately 0.16 acre smaller in area than either previously
proposed map because i1 eliminates any residential lots south of the northern
boundary of the proposed prolongation of Central Way.
C. Other material differences between the most recently revised
map and the two previous versions are summarized in the following table.
Section 5. The City's environmental consultant has reviewed the most
recent revisions 0m TTM 17425, and has prepared a comparative environmental
umokais, which includes a "Hydrologic and Hydraulic Narrative" prepared by
Fuoone Engineering and a "Supplemental Traffic Assessment" prepared by
Linnoott. Law and Greenspan Engineers, The analysis concludes that TTK4
17425, as most recently revised would not result in greater impacts than the

Section 5. The City's environmental consultant has reviewed the most
recent revisions 0m TTM 17425, and has prepared a comparative environmental
umokais, which includes a "Hydrologic and Hydraulic Narrative" prepared by
Fuoone Engineering and a "Supplemental Traffic Assessment" prepared by
Linnoott. Law and Greenspan Engineers, The analysis concludes that TTK4
17425, as most recently revised would not result in greater impacts than the
Resolution Number 0275
original map submittal analyzed in the Final BR and would eliminate the
significant unavoidable impacts relating to Aesthetics/Light and Glare that the
Final EIR determined would occur as a result of the original map submittal. The
analysis also concludes that modifications to Final EIR Mitigation Measures TRA-
2 and TRA-3 are necessary due to the roadway reconfiguration in TTM 17425, as
umised, but that these modifications would not result in any new or greater
impact than those identified in the Final E|R. The City Council finds based onits
independent judgment that the comparative environmental analysis io correct and
that no new impacts have been identified and no new mitigation measures are
required for the most recent revision 0oTTK417425.
Section 6. Staff has recommended the conditions of approval n[TTM
17425 ("Conditions") set forth in Exhibit B to this Rmyn|uUon, which is hereby

11.535 and Title 10. the City Council held a public hearing on June 26,2O12to
review the Final EIR and the Project, including the most recent revisions to TTM
17425 and to consider the recommendations of the Planning Commission. The
record of the public hearing held by the City Council indicates the following:
Section 8. All persons wishing ou address the City Council regarding the
Project were given an opportunity todnooat the public hearing. The Applicant's
representatives and other persons spoke in favor ofthe Pnojact. Other persons
spoke in opposition to the requests on various grounds.

in support thereof, (8) adopting aMitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program
for the Project, and Resolution 6273 is hereby incorporated herein as if set forth
in full.
Section 10` On June 25, 2012' the City Council held a public hearing mu
review the project including l7Yw17425.asrevised.
Section 11. Based upon substantial evidence in the record of the hearing
regarding the Project, the City Council hereby finds aafollows:
a. TTKA 17425. as revised and subject to the conditions
recommended by ntm# provides a comprehensive development plan for the
subject property that accomplishes the following goals:
1. Creation of a comprehensive land use and
infrastructure plan for under-utilized and vacant properties that includes a
n*aunneb|a range of land uses and provides for the construction and
maintenance of public improvements 10 the street and circulation system.
2. Conveyance o( waterfront open space to the City for
public use and enjoyment.
8. Development of the subject property that is at least
fiscally neutral and, more |iko|y.fiooa||y beneficial tn the City.
4. Mitigation of all Project impacts below the level of
significance.
Section 12. The Q1Y Council finds further as follows regarding TTM
17425.au revised and subject to the Conditions recommended bystaff:
1. The proposed eubdivinion, including design and
|mpmvemants, in consistent with the General Plan and the DVVP Specific Plan,
Resolution Number 6275
as amended by General Plan Amendment 11 -1 and Specific Plan Amendment
11 -1, respectively.
2. The site is physically suitable for residential
development at the proposed density because it is relatively flat and immediately
adjacent to existing residential neighborhoods which have been developed at a
similar density.
3. The design of the subdivision and the proposed
improvements are not likely to cause substantial environmental damage or injure
fish or wildlife or their habitat because, as discussed in the Final EIR, the Project
has been conditioned and revised so as to avoid any significant and unavoidable
environmental impacts to biological resources.
4. The design of the subdivision and improvements are
not likely to cause serious public health problems because, as discussed more
fully in the Final EIR, the Project has been conditioned and revised so as to avoid
any significant and unavoidable environmental impacts involving hazardous
materials, hazardous traffic conditions, and other possible threats to public
health.
5. The design of the subdivision and improvements will
not conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large for access through or
use of, property within the proposed subdivision because the tract map does not
affect public access to the San Gabriel River bike trail and the conditions of
approval require any public trust issues to be resolved prior to final map
approval.
6. The discharge of sewage from the proposed
subdivision into the community sewer system would not result in violation of
existing requirements prescribed by the California Regional Water Quality
Control Board because, as discussed more fully in the Final EIR, the Project will
not conflict with any water quality standard or waste discharge requirement. In
particular, the Project will have to comply with the requirements of an approved
Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan and the NPDES Permit for General
Construction Activities, including implementation of all Best Management
Practices, as approved by the State Water Resources Quality Control Board.
7. Reports regarding soils and geological hazards have
not indicated adverse soil or geological conditions; nor has the Applicant failed to
provide adequate or sufficient information in this regard. As more fully discussed
in the Final EIR, study and analysis of soils, geology, and seismicity, and of
hazardous materials, demonstrate the Project will have no significant impacts in
these regards.
Section 13. TTM 17425, as most recently revised and subject to the
Conditions recommended by staff, will promote the public health, safety, and
welfare and is in the public interest.
Section 14. Based on the foregoing facts and findings, the City Council
hereby approves TTM 17425, as revised and subject to the Conditions
recommended by staff.
Section 15. This Resolution shall not go into effect unless and until the
City Council also approves General Plan Amendment 11 -1, Specific Plan
Amendment 11 -1, Zoning Map Amendment 11 -1, and those approvals become
effective.
Section 16. The City Clerk shall certify to the passage and adoption of
this Resolution.
