AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF SEAL BEACH APPROVING A DEVELOPMENT
AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF SEAL BEACH AND
THE MOLA DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION FOR THE
HELLMAN RANCH PROJECT
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SEAL BEACH DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
section 1.
The City and Mola Development Corporation desire to
enter into a development agreement pursuant to the
provisions of Government Code sections 65864 to
65869.5 and Article 27.5 of Chapter 28 of the Code
of the City of Seal Beach, California with respect
to that certain real property commonly known as the
Hellman Ranch and more particularly described in the
proposed agreement, attached hereto as Exhibit A.
section 2.
Pursuant to Government Code Section 65867.5, the
City Council hereby finds that the proposed
Development Agreement is consistent with the General
Plan for the city of Seal Beach and the Hellman
Ranch Specific Plan, as each has been amended to
date.
Section 3.
Pursuant to Section 15168 of the CEQA Guidelines,
a program EIR (87-1) and a Supplemental EIR have
bee!l prepared and certified by the City of Seal
Beach, and this development agree.i.ent is wi thin the
scope of those documents.
section 4 .
Since the Supplemental EIR was prepared, the project
has been altered in these respects:
(a) The total number of dwelling units has
decreased from 355 to 329, as a result of
Coastal Commission approval of the proposal.
(b) Wetland acreage has increased from 37.7 to the
present 41.4 acres and a formal Wetlands
Restoration Plan has been approved by the
Coastal Commission.
(c) The right-of-way width of proposed Hellman
Ranch Road has been reduced from eighty feet
(80') to fifty-six feet (56') to reflect the
reduced traffic flow to be generated by the
project in light of the reduction of the number
of housing units in the project from a much
greater proposal for a substantially larger
number of units (773 units reduced to 329
units) .
(d) The land to be dedicated for Gum Grove Park
and for the community park is increased from
24.7 to 26.0 acres, due to the reduced right-
of-way width for Hellman Ranch Road.
These changes reflect measures imposed by the
California Coastal Commission in further mitigation
of the environmental effects documented in the ErR
and Supplemental EIR. Accordingly, none of the
conditions set forth in Public Resources Code ~2ll66
which would require additional environmental review
are present and no such review is necessary.
Ordinance Number /Jr;fo
PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED
Seal Beach, California, at a
day of
section 5.
Section 6.
ATTEST:
The City Council of the city of Seal Beach finds
that the adoption of the proposed development
agreement, attached hereto as "Exhibit A", will not
have a significant impact on the environment that
will not be mitigated to a level of insignificance
as provided in the EIR and Supplemental EIR prepared
for this project.
The City Council hereby approves the Development
Agreement between the City of Seal Beach and the
Mola Development Corporation attached hereto as
Exhibit A.
by the City Council of the City
regular meeting thereof held on

Council of City nor any other agency of city shall enact an
ordinance, policy, rule, regulation or other measure applicable to
the Project which relates to the rate, timing or sequencing of the
development or construction of all or any part of the Project or

invalidate or prevail over all or any part of this Agreement,
Developer shall have no recourse against City pursuant to this
Agreement, but shall retain all other rights, claims and causes of
action at law or in equity which Developer may have independent of
this Agreement. The foregoing shall not be deemed to limit the

such order and at such times as Developer deems appropriate within

regulations and official policies in force as of the Agreement
Date. In connection with any approval which city is permitted or
has the right to make under this Agreement relating to the Project,
or otherwise under its rules, regulations and official policies,
City shall exercise its discretion or take action in a reasonably
expeditious manner which complies and is consistent with the

density and intensity specified in this Agreement or with the rate
of development selected by Developer. City shall accept for
