Honorable Chairman and Commissioners:
SUBJECT: HISTORY OF BIXBY RANCH PROJECTS
It has come to our attention that the "History of Bixby Ranch Projects" is on your agenda
for your January 18, 2001 meeting. Apparently, questions have been raised as to
whether: (1) The City of Seal Beach ("City") has adopted the necessary general plan
amendment and zoning change to change the zoning of a portion of the Bixby Ranch
property ("the subject area") from agricultural to residential (and if so, when such action
took place); and (2) The Airport Land Use Commission ("ALUC") has determined
whether residential use for the subject area is consistent with the Airport Environs Land
Use Plan ("AELUP"). As we show below, the answer to both questions is `yes.'
Last Thursday, the City faxed area maps and a resolution to your Executive Director to
assist in her presentation. Apparently, Ms. Golding received those maps after the staff
report was prepared. Thus, we have resubmitted the attached documents for your review,
and submit the following history. We have enclosed:
1. General Plan Amendment Resolutions
2. Zone Change Ordinances
3. Vesting Tentative Tract Map (TTM No. 14465) showing the residential areas
found consistent with the AELUP by the ALUC in 1995, with the residential
area approved in 1998 superimposed on the map.

City of Seat Beach Letter re:
Airport Land Use Commission consideration of
"History of Bixby Ranch Projects, City of Seat Beach"
January 17, 2001
A). The City Council for the City of Seal Beach adopted the necessary general pian
amendment and zoning change to change the zoning of the subject area from
agricultural to residential in 1998 and 1999.
On November 23, 1998, the City Council adopted: Resolution No. 4661 to change the
General Plan land use designation for the subject area from agricultural to residential; and
Ordinance No. 1439, which changed the zoning of that property to Residential Medium
Density (RMD). As shown on the map attached to Ordinance No. 1439, the area (Area
D) that was rezoned to residential is an 'L' -shaped parcel. The southerly portion of Area
D is the subject area, formerly a sod farm. On August 16, 1999, the City re -adopted
virtually the identical resolution (Resolution No. 4729) and ordinance (Ordinance No.
1439-A).t As shown by the map attached to Ordinance No. 1439-A, the 'L' -shaped
residential area (Area D) approved in 1999 is identical to the `L' -shaped Area D
approved in 1998.
B). The ALUC determined that residential use for the subject area is consistent
with the Airport Environs Land Use Plan (AELUP) in 1995 and 1998.
ALUC reviewed proposals for the Bixby Ranch in 1995 and 1998. At both times, the
ALUC found that residential zoning for the subject area is consistent with the AELUP.
1995 ALUC Finding of Consistency. In 1995, ALUC determined that 223 residential
lots in the northern area of the Bixby Ranch are consistent with the AELUP. As shown
on TTM No. 14465, the 1995 project included 16 lots in the area extending south from
the northeast comer of the Bixby property, and down the length of the Air Force Reserve
Center boundary for approximately 1420 feet (into the area formerly the sod farm). This
finger-like projection includes the subject area. The project ultimately approved in 1998
includes eight residences in the northerly 780 feet of the finger-like projection.
1998 ALUC Findings of Consistency. In 1998, the ALUC found that
church/institutional uses and residential uses for the subject area are consistent with the
AELUP. At that time, Bixby had initially proposed a church for the area. However, due
to concerns voiced by opponents to the church use, the City requested that the ALUC also
determine whether residential use is consistent with the AELUP. As stated in your staff
report, on September 17, 1998, the ALUC found both the church use and residential uses
consistent with the AELUP. As noted above (and as shown on the map attached to
Ordinance No. 1439), the City Council approved residential uses for the subject area two
months after the ALUC determination that residential use is consistent with the ALUC.
Due to litigation concerning other portions of the Ranch, the City was required to perform additional
analysis of the potential environmental impacts associated with the commercial center to the southwest of
the subject area. After performing that analysis, the City re -adopted its approvals (with slightly different
language to reflect the additional analysis), and the court found that the City's approvals and the
certification of the revised environmental impact report were valid. Ironically, the residential use in
question was incorporated into the project to alleviate the concerns raised by nearby residents who were
opposed to the church and institutional uses.

Q. Reconciliation of Staff Report.
As noted in Ms. Golding's staff report, she did not have the benefit of the documents
submitted by the City prior to preparing her report. To clear up any confusion, we note
the following:
I The oroiect has not chang,ed since the City approved the General Plan
amendments and zone change in 1998. As shown on the map attached to Ordinance No.
1439, the City approved an `L' -shaped residential parcel in 1998, two months after the
ALUC determined that residential use in this area is consistent with the AELUP. The
homes in question (8 homes not 16) are within the 'L' -shaped area approved in 1998.
Thus, there is no "newly proposed design." The sod farm was not part of the project
approved in 1998, nor does Attachment B to your staff report depict the project approved
in 1998. Attachment B was the use proposed in early 1998 prior to the City Council
requiring the applicant to make significant changes to the proposed project. The map
attached to Ordinance No. 1439 shows that residential (and park) use was approved in
1998 for the area shown on Attachment B as the 7.02 Sod Farm.
version of the oroiect." In late 2000, the applicant submitted a site plan, which depicts
the actual location of the homes and their architectural features. Consistent with the
zoning and general plan designation adopted in 1998, the homes are located in the 'L' -
shaped parcel re -zoned in 1998. PUC §21676(b) obligates local agencies to refer only
certain legislative land use actions such as general plan amendments and zoning
ordinances to the governing airport land use commission for an airport land use plan
consistency finding. In 1995 and 1998, the City submitted proposed general plan
amendments and related applications for legislative action to the ALUC, and the ALUC
determined that residential zoning including the same area as shown on the site plan is
consistent with the AELUP. ALUC does not have the jurisdiction to review quasi-
judicial site plans. Seal Beach's site plan review of homes, is at most, quasi-judicial, and
not a legislative action that would require a further finding of consistency by the ALUC,
especially where residential zoning for the area in question has already been found to be
consistent with the AELUP by the ALUC. The City approved the site plan on December
6, 2000.
3. On two separate occasions the ALUC has determined that residential use in
the subject area is consistent with the AELUP. In 1995 the ALUC found that 223
residential lots, including 16 homes in the subject area (See TTM 14465), are consistent
ALUC c..inenry I =

with the AELUP. In 1998, the ALUC reaffirmed its finding that residential use in the
subject area is consistent with the AELUP. Z The subsequent finding in 1998 was not
legally required. Once the ALUC has determined that a particular zoning (e.g.
residential) is consistent with the AELUP, that finding encompasses uses consistent with
that zoning unless the ALUC has revised the AELUP. There have been no relevant
changes to AELUP after the ALUC made its consistency finding in 1995. After the
ALUC found that a more intensive residential project is consistent with the operations of
the airfield, the City took legislative actions authorizing residential development for the
site, including general plan amendments, zoning change, and a development agreement.
In sum, the City Council authorized residential zoning for the subject area when it
adopted the following legislative actions in 1998: General Plan amendments, zone
changes and development agreement. Prior to the adoption of such legislative actions,
ALUC found residential zoning for the identical area to be consistent with the AELUP.
Once ALUC determined that residential zoning for the area is consistent with the
AELUP, it does not have jurisdiction -to review whether the actual homes permitted by
that zoning are likewise consistent with the AELUP.
Please contact my office at your earliest convenience if you require additional
information or have questions regarding the enclosed documents. I can be reached at
(562) 431-2527, extension 313. In addition, I will be in attendance at the meeting on
Thursday evening to be available to answer questions the members of the Commission or
your staff may have regarding this matter.
Sincerely, -

Director of Development Services

The record of the 1998 finding of consistency is unclear as to the precise location of the residential uses.
According to the applicant, in 1998 the ALUC considered the plan included in your package as Anzchment
A and the original 1995 site plan presentation board. However, Attachment C (which was included in the
1998 EIR) was also included in the documents reviewed by the ALUC in 1998. In any event, no additional
finding in 1998 was required because the ALUC already detarmined in 1995 that residential use for the "L"
shaped parcel is consistent with the AELUP.

6.1 Extrung General Commercial Uses
There are several areas that are classified "General Commercial"
according to the current City ordinances. new are primarily areas of
auto service stations, located on major arterials. The Rossmaor Center,
by current zoning classification is considered a general use, but in actual
use it is a mixture of general and service uses. Because of the great
number of general commercial uses, the Rossmoor Center area, should
remain as a general commercial classification. In 1998, the City
approved General Commercial zoning designations for a total of 34.6
acres north of the San Diego Freeway on Seal Beach Boulevard{ 26
acres located generally across from the Rossmoor Center and 8.5
acres located at the comer of lampson Avenue and Seal Beach
Boulevard. These areas of commercial development will relate well
to the existing general commercial uses of Rossmoor Center, and also
have excellent access from Seal Beach Boulevard.

TYhese residential neighborhoods of Sabulbia wo " - 3Atnd4 are very
stable areas that are not subject to change during the life span of the Land

units with new residences, generally on a one for one replacement. es

Subsection 5.2. 1.2, Programs, subparagraph C. is revised to read as follows
-C. Progruu: Conduct public hearings to determine the
appropriateness and benefits of redesignadng purdahs of the Bixby Old
Bunch Parcel for uses including residential development, with a pardon
of die site considered for higher density housing affordable to lower
income households, and other portions designated for single family
detached residential uses, to promote amore balanced housing invemoty
within the community.
Anticipated Impact: In 1995 and 1998, the City held mrmerous public
hearings regarding the appropriateness and beuerits of redesignaling
portions of the Bixby Old Ranch Parcel for was including residential
development, including some component of higher density affordable
housing. Such hearings were the culmination of a lengthy fact-finding
process, and included hearings on the merits of two separate
development projects. In 1998, the City Council approved a 75 -writ
residential and park development no the northerly 12 acres of file
Bixby property, to replace a large church/institutional use proposed by
the property owner. As part of that development, the City,
Redevelopment Agency, and the developer will ensure that at least 10%
of the units developed will be affordable to persons who could not
otherwise afford market rate residences. The City has determined that
church/instiftfional uses were inappropriate on the site due to traffic,
noise and air quality impacts. A high density residential development
would produce similar impacts on that site, making high density
residential development at that location unacceptable and mit
appropriate. In addition, the benefits to the City that are expected to
accrue from the approved Bixby Old Ranch Towne Center
Development Plan would be significantly reduced if the developer was
forced to construct high density, below market rate housing. Dile, in
pari, to thea impacts and due to concerns by the Orange County
Airport Iand Use Commission, the number of planned residential
units has been reduced from in excess of 100 units to 75 units, and the
horses will be located in the extreme northerly portion of the Bixby
properties. The City bas developed a program to utilize existing and
future tax increment set-aside revenues generated from other areas of
the City to provide affordable housing to the City. This program
provides for funds to lower the costs of oew homes for affordability,
and it is anticipated that approximately 10% of the units conAructed
on this site will be made affordable to persons who Cannon otherwise
afford to purchase market -rate housing through participation 61 this

of the site considered for higher density housing affordable to lower
income households, and other portions designated for single family

within the community.
Anticipated lmpotr. In 1995, 1998 and 1999, the City held numerous
public hearings regarding the appropriatemea and benefits of redesigating
Portions of the Bixby Old Ranch Parcel for uses including residential
development, including some component of higher density affordable
housing. Such hearings were the culmination of a lengthy fact-finding
process, and included hearings on the merits of two separate development
projects. In 1999, the City Council approved a 75 -unit residential and park
development on the northerly 13 acres of the Bixby property, to replace a
large church/insutudonal use proposed by the property owner. As part of
that development, the City, Redevelopment Agency, and the developer will
ensure that at least l0% of the units developed will be affordable m persons
who could not otherwise afford market ram residences. The City has
determined that church/institutiorW uses were inappropriate on the site due
to traffic, noise and air quality impacts. A high density residential
development would produce sionlar impacts on that site, making high
density residential development at that location unacceptable and not
appropriate. In addition, the benefits m the City that are expected to accrue
from the approved Bixby Old Ranch Towne Center Development Plan
would be significantly reduced if the developer was forced to concoct
high density, below market ram housing. Due, in part, m these impacts
and due m contemn by the Orange County Airport land Use Commission,
the number of planned residential units has been reduced from in excess of
100 units to 75 units, and the houses will be located in the extreme
northerly portion of the Bixby properties. The City has developed a
program to udbw existing and future tax increment set-aside revenues
generated from other areas of the City in provide affordable housing in the
City. This program provides for funds in lower the costs of new homes for
affordability, and it is anticipated that approximately 10% of the units
concocted on this site will be made affordable to persons who cannot
otherwise afford to purchase market -rate housing through participation in
this program 34 e possible redesignmieft of
