A RESOLUTION OF THE SEAL BEACH PLANNING
COMMISSION RECOMMENDING THAT THE CITY
COUNCIL PROHIBIT THE ESTABLISHMENT OF
VACATION RENTALS (ZONE TEXT AMENDMENT 12-3)
THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SEAL BEACH
DOES FIND, DETERMINE, AND RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. On October 3, 2012, the Planning Commission conducted a duly
noticed public hearing to consider recommending that the City Council approve
Zone Text Amendment 12-3, which would prohibit the establishment of new
vacation rentals, defined in the City's Municipal Code as the leasing of residential
units for 29 days or less. The Commission provided the public an opportunity to
address the Planning Commission on the subject.
Section 2. The Planning Commission hereby finds that approval of Zoning
Text Amendment 12-3 is categorically exempt from review pursuant to the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA guidelines
Section 15305 (Minor Alterations in Land Use Limitations), because it consists of
minor alterations in land use limitations in areas with an average slope of less
than 20% and does not result in any changes in land use or density; and Section
15061(b)(3), because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that
the approval may have a significant effect on the environment.
Section 3. The Planning Commission hereby recommends that the City
Council amend the Municipal Code to prohibit the establishment of vacation
rentals.
PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED by the Planning Commission of
the City of Seal Beach at a meeting thereof held on the 3rd day of October, 2012,
