The proposed project includes the demolition of the existing building and parking lot on the project site and the subsequent development of an approximately 12,780 sf, two-story fire station and associated improvements. Vehicular access would be provided through the alley on the northern side of the project site and an exit-only driveway onto Long Beach Boulevard. Firefighting and emergency medical response vehicles would exit the project site via a driveway off East Randolph Place.

Off-site improvements would include a new driveway apron from the proposed parking lot to Long Beach Boulevard and three new traffic signals at the intersection of East Randolph Place and Long Beach Boulevard. Additionally, the alley on the project site’s northern border would be widened.

Required discretionary actions associated with the proposed project include the following: certification of the EIR, Site Plan Review approval, Standards Variance, a General Plan Amendment to change the PlaceType designation of the project site to Neighborhood Serving Center or Corridor Low Density (NSC-L), a Zoning Amendment to zone the project site as Mixed Use (MU-1), and a lot merger of the existing parcels on the project site.

A public hearing will be held before the Planning Commission on October 6, 2022 to recommend that the City Council certify the EIR.

The Project Applicant, Century Housing Corporation, is preparing a Specific Plan to redevelop portions of the existing Century Villages at Cabrillo. The Specific Plan is part of a collection of planning documents that effectively guide the services, housing, amenities, and programming for the project site. The Specific Plan provides the basis for the LEED – Neighborhood Development certification obtained in 2019 and regulates the project site’s allowable land use, circulation, open space, and development standards.

The project proposes to demolish the existing on-site restaurant and associated surface parking lot, and construct a staffed, automated express car wash facility. A 3,278-square foot one-story express car wash building would be constructed, equipped with standard car wash tunnel equipment. In addition to the 100-foot wash tunnel, the building would include an area for mechanical/electrical equipment and storage. A drive-through lane would be constructed to direct vehicles entering the site from a new driveway along Gardenia Avenue northerly to a pay station, then southerly to enter into the car wash tunnel. Vehicles would exit the southerly end of the car wash building and either exit the site via a driveway towards the eastern alley or a new driveway onto East Pacific Coast Highway. Vehicles also have the option to park in one of 18 self-service vacuum parking spaces, equipped with one vacuum per space. The project would construct an approximately 355-square foot one-story building consisting of a restroom, trash enclosure, and vacuum room in the southeast corner of the site, as well as a 127-square foot one-story monitoring room near the entrance (northern end) of the car wash tunnel. The project will also include the installation of 2,523 square-feet new drought tolerant landscaping onsite. Car wash operations would include on-site staffing of approximately five employees per shift with two shifts per day. Anticipated operating hours would be from 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. seven days a week.

City discretionary approvals for the proposed project include CEQA Clearance, Conditional Use Permit, Site Plan Review, Zone Change, and Lot Merger.

The proposed project involves both the adoption of a Climate Action and Adaptation Plan Project (CAAP) and a Safety Element Update. The CAAP is a comprehensive planning document outlining the City’s proposed approach both to address climate impacts on Long Beach and to reduce Long Beach’s impact on the climate by reducing GHG emissions. The CAAP was a mitigation measure for the Long Beach Land Use Element (LUE) and Urban Design Element (UDE) Program EIR (2019 Certified Program EIR). The proposed project is considered a policy/planning action and adoption of the proposed project does not constitute approval or entitlement for any physical improvements or development.

A public hearing will be held before the Planning Commission on May 19, 2022 to recommend that the City Council certify the Subsequent EIR.

The proposed Parks Zoning and Dedication Project (Part 1) – May 2021 (Project) will facilitate cleanup of land use and zoning designations of existing parks so that they have the appropriate Open Space (OS) PlaceType and Park (P) zoning designation, in order both to appropriately reflect the existing land use and to protect the park use by ensuring development regulations that are aligned with park uses.

The proposed Project includes 226 detached and attached single-family units on the southern 15 acres of the 20-acre Project Site and 5 acres of Public Open Space on the northern portion of the Site. The Project would include 74 detached single-family condominium units, 99 attached townhouse units, and 53 attached condominium units. The proposed density is approximately 14.6 dwelling units (DU)/acre. The residential development would also include a clubhouse and pool towards the southern portion of the development and a 5-acre park located in the northern portion of the site.

The proposed Pacific Place Project (hereinafter referred to as the “Project"), is comprised of a three-story 152,745-square foot (sf) self-storage building with approximately 1,132 self-storage units, a 2,153 sf car wash, a recreational vehicle (RV) parking facility with 578 parking spaces, and a 5,000 sf office space on 4-parcels totaling approximately 14-acres (i.e., Artesia parcels) with anticipated industrial uses including a single-story building with up to 77,000 square-feet of building area consisting of 73,500 square-feet warehouse space and 3,500 square-feet of office space, and a proposed vacated roadway easement adjacent to the self-storage, car wash, and RV parking facility on four parcels totaling approximately 5.5. acres (i.e., McDonald Trust parcels) in the City of Long Beach, Los Angeles County, California. The Project area totals approximately 19.41 acres.

The proposed project is a new General Plan Noise Element, which would replace the City’s existing 1975 Noise Element. Since then, the City’s physical development, population, regional context, and the regulatory guidance involving noise have changed significantly. In order to allow for increased flexibility in responding to such changes, the City proposes to replace the existing Noise Element with a new Noise Element. The proposed Noise Element includes a Noise Plan, which addresses strategies and policies related to six topic areas describing sources of existing noise and vibration: (1) PlaceType Characteristics and Land Use Compatibility; (2) Mobility, including vehicular noise, rail, aircraft, and watercraft; (3) Construction; (4) Special Events; (5) Environmental Justice and Social Equity; and (6) Noise Management.

The proposed project involves the demolition of the existing, city-owned Fire Station No. 9, located at 3917 Long Beach Boulevard. The proposed project includes two potential courses of action, Option A and Option B, both involving the demolition of the 5,548-square foot City-owned Fire Station No. 9 and eventual development of a permanent fire station (the site and scope of the replacement structure has not yet been identified and is not a part of this project). Due to the age and architecture of the building, the station appears to be eligible for designation as a Long Beach Historic Landmark and listing in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) and California Register of Historic Resources (CRHR). Therefore, Fire Station No. 9 is considered a historic resource pursuant to CEQA.

The station has been closed since July 2019 due to the recurrence of toxic mold in the building and Fire Station No. 9 activities have been temporarily relocated offsite. This relocation has compromised response times in the Fire Station No. 9 service area and has increased the average response time by 16 percent and by as much as 55 percent in certain neighborhoods. The increased response times present public safety concerns in this area of the City. Due to the hazardous conditions of the building, the station is uninhabitable by the Long Beach Fire Department. The City has determined there are two potential options for site:

• Option A would remove the existing structurally impaired and deteriorated building due to the hazardous conditions created by the mold and building moisture and install a temporary modular structure to accommodate the station crew.
  
  
• Option B would also remove the existing structurally impaired and deteriorated building. However, under Option B, the site would remain undeveloped and available for a future civic use.

Option A would involve the installation of a temporary/modular structure that would house Fire Station No. 9 operations for approximately five years while a larger permanent replacement structure is built off-site (the site of the replacement structure has not yet been identified and is not a part of this project). Under Option B, the existing Fire Station No. 9 facility would be removed, and the project site would be cleared and remain undeveloped, with the site prepared for a future civic use. The potential future use of the project site has not been identified and is not part of this EIR. Fire Station No. 9 would continue to operate out of an alternate location until a new permanent station has been constructed.

1401 Long Beach Blvd. is a 100% affordable housing project in two buildings, one five stories and one seven stories, totaling 160 dwelling units.

The Project proposes a 30-story, 537,075-square-foot building of up to 375.5 feet in height that would include 429 hotel rooms, 23,512 square feet of restaurant space, and 26,847 square feet of meeting and ballroom space.  The proposed building would replace an existing surface parking lot on the Project Site.  Pedestrian walkways and new landscaping would be provided.  The Project also includes improvements to the portion of Victory Park located within the Project Site boundaries, including new landscaping and restoration of the Jergins Trust Tunnel.

The proposed project involves acquisition of a privately-owned property at 100 E. Ocean Boulevard by the Long Beach Redevelopment Agency (Redevelopment Agency) for the purpose of land assembly for future development. Acquisition of the subject property would allow the Redevelopment Agency to improve the physical appearance of the subject property in the short term while encouraging long term redevelopment of the site, as well as improve access to Victory Park. Physical enhancements may include new signage, fencing and landscaping to improve the aesthetic conditions of the property. The subject property would be acquired by the Redevelopment Agency through a negotiated agreement, or upon determination by the Redevelopment Agency, by eminent domain.

This serves as the City of Long Beach’s (City) Notice of Intent to adopt an Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration for the 1601 San Francisco Project, prepared in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), CEQA Guidelines, and local implementation procedures.

The applicant requests a Zone Change from CNR to R-2-I, which would apply to the subject site only, for the purposes of demolishing the existing single-family dwelling and garage, and constructing a new three-story single-family dwelling and garage conforming to the R-2-I development standards.

The roof would primarily consist of mechanical platforms. Per CEQA Guidelines Section 15072(g)(5), the project site is not listed as a hazardous property as designated under Section 65962.5 of the Government Code.

The proposed project would include demolition of the existing on-site USPS facility and construction of three light industrial/manufacturing buildings, associated parking, and circulation improvements. The new development would encompass 427,565 square feet of light industrial/manufacturing uses with supporting office facilities and 638 parking spaces on a 19.09-acre site. Project implementation would include a zone change and zoning code amendment along with approval of a tentative parcel map and site plan.

The residence located at 2810 East 1st Street was originally constructed in 1921. In 1982, the Bluff Park Historic District was designated with the 2810 East 1st Street residence identified as a contributing structure. On October 15, 2005, a Certificate of Appropriateness was approved allowing a 523-square foot addition and removal of the rough-textured stucco on the existing residential structure. In December 2005, permitted construction work was initiated. Upon removal of the rough-textured stucco, most of the lath detached from the framing, leaving the framing bare. Termite damage and dry rot in the framing were also discovered during the stucco removal. The former property owner notified the City and requested a Certificate of Appropriateness for demolition and new construction. Since 2005, the residence has remained in its current state.

The proposed project involves demolition of the existing Seaport Marina Hotel and construction of a commercial center totaling 245,000 square feet, consisting of 95,000 square feet of retail uses, a 55,000-square-foot grocery store, a 25,000-square-foot fitness/health club, approximately 70,000 square feet of restaurant uses, and 1,150 parking spaces. The proposed commercial structures would be one- and two-story buildings with a maximum height of 35 feet as defined by the Long Beach Municipal Code.

The project involves the demolition of 400 square feet (sf) of existing concrete, on-site pipeline structures, and asphalt paving, and the development of two concrete tilt-up industrial buildings, situated on 6.69 acres of land east of Studebaker Road. Approximately 1.81 acres of vacant land west of Studebaker Road, at the northwest and southwest corners of Studebaker Road and Loynes Drive, would be dedicated as open space to the Los Cerritos Wetlands Authority as part of this project. The project would include planting of an assortment of native grasses and tree species consistent with the Los Cerritos Wetlands Authority, including low growing grasses along street frontage.

Situated within the eastern project area, the two 35-foot high buildings would total 139,200 sf, including 21,000 sf office space. The individual building sizes would be 91,700 sf and 47,500 sf, respectively. The project would support potential uses such light manufacturing, warehousing, assembly and distribution. The proposed facility would operate 24 hours a day. The building layout may be broken into six or more individual spaces depending upon final tenant demand. Office spaces would be provided in the interior frontage of each building to support the business operations. Office space would occupy a maximum of 25 percent of the gross floor area pursuant to Chapter 21.33 of the Long Beach Municipal Code. Office space in Building 1 would total 14,000 sf and 7,000 sf in Building 2, which together represents 21,000 sf, or 15 percent of the gross floor area.

The project includes remodeling of the existing building located at 3311 East Willow Street and reorganization of the parking lot. The building was previously used as a physical therapy center and is proposed to be utilized as an adult day care facility. The proposed project would remodel the exterior and interior of the building while leaving the exterior structure intact. Building square footage would remain 3,960 sf. The existing parking lot would be repaired and restriped to allow for fourteen parking spaces, including one van accessible parking space. The applicant plans to install new parking lot lighting and upgrade current electrical panels.

The property located at 3801 E. Fifth Street was damaged by fire and is currently unsafe and unihabitable. It is a Craftsman bungalow that was constructed in 1920 and is a contributing building within the locally designated Belmont Heights Historic District. The property owner is proposing to restore the building in a historically accurate manner.

The proposed project would be developed within the Downtown Plan area and would replace two existing surface parking lots on a 1.2-acre site, with two buildings, an 8-story building at the north end of the property (North Building) and a 23-story high rise building at the south portion of the site (South Building). Both buildings would include ground floor retail, with residential units on the upper stories. A pedestrian-focused paseo would be constructed at the location of the existing alley between the two proposed buildings. The proposed project would include a total of 345 residential units and 14,481 sf of retail commercial space, 563 vehicle parking spaces, and 128 bicycle parking spaces.

The proposed project is a mixed-use development that would include a 9,121 sf retail building and a 4,296 sf automated car wash. There will be 67 parking spaces on site after project implementation, including 14 spaces for the car wash and 53 spaces for the retail uses. The proposed project includes the demolition of portions of the existing dealership, including the service and parts department. Due to the unique architecture and potential historic significance of the existing buildings and features, the project would reuse the entire Ray Vines Chrysler Plymouth Dealership showroom building and the original pole sign.

The proposal involves a 22,125-square-foot lot with split/dual residential and commercial zoning (R-1-L Single-Family Residential District with Large Lots and CCA - Community Automobile Oriented District). The project request is for a zone change which would rezone a portion (approximately 25-feet by 150-feet) of the property, currently zoned R-1-L, to CCA, which is consistent with the remainder of the property.

The proposed project would consist of a 95-unit multi-family apartment complex on the approximately 24,000 square-foot site. The project would include a single structure that would consist of nine levels (one subterranean level and eight aboveground levels). The bottom three levels would consist of parking, and provide 153 on-site parking spaces. The apartment structure would reach a maximum height of 85 feet above West Seaside Way grade. The apartment units would include a mixture of studios, and one-, two-, and three-bedroom configurations. Additional amenties include lobby space, a fitness center, and a roof deck. Per CEQA Guidelines Section 15072(g)(5), the project site is not listed as a hazardous property as designated under Section 65962.5 of the Government Code.

The proposed project involves development of 18, three-story townhomes in three buildings that would be a maximum height of 38 feet. No new development is proposed on Lots 1 and 2.

The proposed project involves a modification to Alamitos Avenue between 7th Street and Ocean Boulevard to a two-lane divided roadway with on-street bike lanes that would match the roadway section north of 7th Street. North of 7th Street, Alamitos Avenue has been restriped to provide a two-lane, divided roadway, separated by a two-way left-turn, with on-street parking and on-street bike lanes, as well as a buffer to separate bicycle traffic from vehicular traffic. Currently, most of the project site provides two-lanes in each direction separated by a two-way left-turn lane; south of 3rd Street, only one southbound through lane is provided to just past Broadway. Before restriping activities, the project would remove and recycle existing asphalt within the project site and resurface the roadway. The project site is approximately 3,400 feet of road length and 4.7 acres.

The City is the Lead Agency for the project and will prepare the EIR in accordance with the requirements of CEQA and the State CEQA Guidelines. In early 2008, the City prepared an Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) for the Alamitos Bay Marina Rehabilitation Project. Mitigation measures to reduce potentially significant effects to less than significant levels were incorporated into the project, and the IS/MND was circulated for public review from April 4, 2008 to May 5, 2008. Comments were received from reviewing agencies and issues were raised in the comments received that have yet to be resolved. Therefore, due to and abundance of caution, the City has elected to elevate the level of CEQA review to an EIR.

In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the State CEQA Guidelines, this Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) has been prepared for the Alamitos Bay Shoreline Trail Project (proposed project) at East Sorrento Drive between 2nd Street and Appian Way in the City of Long Beach. Consistent with State CEQA Guidelines Section 15071, this IS/MND includes a description of the proposed project, an evaluation of the potential environmental impacts, and findings from the environmental review.

The proposed project includes the redevelopment of the existing concession stand and cafe on the project site with three buildings, an outdoor recreational area, and improvements to the southern portion of the existing on-site surface parking lot. The project would be aligned with the existing pedestrian and bicycle paths east of the site, creating a promenade area in front of the site, facing the beach.

The project would also add a landscaped median between the existing pedestrian and bicycle pathway and an additional dedicated bicycle lane further south of the pedestrian path on the beach. The addition of a bicycle lane would reposition a sharp curve in the existing alignment, which currently poses a problem for pedestrian safety.

AES Southland Energy, LLC (AES) proposes to construct a 300-megawatt battery energy storage system (BESS) facility at the existing Alamitos Generating Station. The BESS would consist of three 50-foot high buildings and would be constructed within an existing surface parking lot on the generating station property. The project would include ancillary facilities such as a chiller plant (utilized as a cooling system for BESS facilities) and necessary utility connections. The project would also include parking, landscaping, and open space improvements in various portions of the generating station site.

The proposed project involves construction of three industrial buildings on a site currently improved as a paved surface parking lot. These buildings would have an open floor plan and are intended for light industrial, light manufacturing, warehouse, office, and/or research and development land uses.

The Aquarium of the Pacific proposes (1) to construct 5,300 sq. ft. of LEED Platinum-certified indoor facilities & 13,800 sq. ft. of outdoor, fabric-shaded exhibit area at the rear of its existing campus ("proposed South Lease area") and (2) to relocate its current aviary exhibit to the same parcel.

The proposed project involves construction of a 23,330-square foot addition (14% floor area increase) to an existing 166,447-square foot aquarium facility. The project consists of a new wing with a "media-based chamber," an expanded retail store, and a new front entrance. The Aquarium's total ground lease area is 276,371 square feet (6.34 acres). The project will be designed and built to the USGBC's LEED Gold standards with "add-alternate" design plans to bring the project to Platinum status if funding is available.

The proposed project involves maintenance dredging for the Cerritos Bahia Marina to maintain sufficient water depth for marina operations. The proposed dredge depth for the project is-6 feet mean lower low water (mllw) with an allowable over dredge of +2 feet. The volume of material to be removed is 26,867 cubic yards (cy). A volume of 11,086 cy is available to-6 feet (mllw) and 15,781 cy is available in the +2 foot over dredge volume.

The project proposes the demolition of the existing Belmont Pool complex (the indoor and outdoor features) and the construction and operation of a replacement pool complex that includes indoor and outdoor pool components. Spectator seating will be provided for approximately 3,500 people through a combination of permanent and portable seating in the indoor and outdoor areas.

Construction of the new Belmont Beach and Aquatics Center, consisting of a new public recreational and competitive swimming and diving pool complex at the location of the former Belmont Pool, on a 5.87-acre project site, located at 4200 E. Ocean Blvd. in the PD-2 and P zoning districts.

The proposed project is a revision to the original 2001 Long Beach Bicycle Master Plan (2001 Plan). The proposed update to the 2001 Plan will serve as the guiding document that contributes to the transformation of Long Beach into the most bicycle friendly city in the United States. The continued development of the City's network of bicycle facilities will not only make bicycling a more viable mode of transportation, but will contribute to an enhanced quality of life in the City that includes increased public health, community development and reduced greenhouse gas emissions.

The proposed project would develop a mixed-use development in the Downtown Plan area that is generally divided into three main portions: North Building, Acres of Books, and the South Building. The 23-story North Building would contain 209,627 sf of residential uses (197 units) and 10,579 sf of commercial uses, including retail and restaurant. The Acres of Books portion of development would include 9,600 sf of commercial uses, including restoration and reuse of the historic Acres of Books building, and an exterior courtyard area that bisects the building. The South Building would include 215,969 sf of residential uses (203 units) and 12,628 sf of commercial uses, including retail and restaurant. The proposed project would contain a total of 54,911 sf of exterior areas that is comprised of 30,289 sf of common open space and public open space and 24,688 sf of pedestrian paths and landscaping. The proposed project would also include 205,898 sf of parking area, including 104 bicycle parking stalls and 582 vehicle parking stalls (including 22 electric vehicle spaces and 6 charging stations). The proposed project’s total area would be approximately 719,212 sf, including parking and exterior areas. Total lot coverage would be approximately 68,375 sf and the floor area ratio (FAR) would be 7.47. The project site currently contains the designated Long Beach Landmark Acres of Books building.

The proposed project involves repaving East Broadway between Alamitos Avenue and Redondo Avenue, and the modification of East Broadway between Alamitos Avenue and Temple Avenue to install safety improvements including protected bike lanes on both sides of the street. East Broadway currently consists of two lanes of traffic in each direction from Temple Avenue to Alamitos Avenue. The project includes removing existing pavement and resurfacing the roadway. The project would also include various concrete improvements and repairs to existing sidewalks, curbs, gutters, and curb ramps. In addition, the existing striping between Alamitos Avenue and Temple Avenue, which currently includes two vehicular travel lanes, would be reconfigured to provide one lane in each direction with on-street parking and protected bike lanes on both sides of the street, as well as a buffer to separate bicycle traffic from vehicular traffic. The project would not change existing striping on East Broadway from Temple Avenue to Redondo Avenue. Currently, on-street parking is generally allowed, but is restricted along certain sections of the project site during several time periods of the week. The project site covers approximately 12 acres and approximately 9,200 feet (1.7 mile) of road length. The project would remove 12 street trees and would relocate some bus stops along the project corridor.

The project proposes to construct a water well (known as DOM 301) and a water treatment plant on the project site. As part of the project, conveyance pipelines would also be constructed in the Long Beach Boulevard, Victoria Street, and Barclay Street rights-of-way to link two nearby existing water wells, DOM 272 and DOM 297, to the proposed treatment plant. Groundwater produced at the two existing wells and the proposed well would be delivered to the proposed water treatment plant on-site and then to the local distribution system, including Cal Water’s existing Dominguez District system within the City of Long Beach and County of Los Angeles jurisdictions.

The Project involves a Municipal Code Amendment and Zoning Code Amendment (Application No. 1804-20; ZCA18-003), respectively, for additions and revisions to Title 5 and Title 21 of the Long Beach Municipal Code to regulate Adult-Use Cannabis. Currently, Adult-Use Cannabis is not a defined or permitted use in the City's Municipal Code. The Project would designate whether Adult Use Cannabis uses are permitted, conditionally permitted, or prohibited within specific zones in the City and also govern their review process and operation.

The project consists of a 100 percent affordable housing building in the CVC campus. The project proposes to demolish the existing two-story apartment buildings (40 units) and construct a four-story, 90-unit apartment building with a maximum height of 58.5 feet above ground level. The existing buildings to be demolished were evaluated and determined not to be historic. The building includes three stories of apartments with a total of 50,830 square feet of residential space. The first floor (21,370 square feet) of the building would include 40 parking stalls, a community room, a classroom, an office, an exercise room, bathrooms, and a conference room. The building would be constructed on a 0.87-acre site, and access to the parking stalls would be provided on the west side of the building from West Williams Street. Units provided in the building would consist of 89 studio units, and one 2-bedroom manager’s unit.

The proposed project will establish regulations, standards, and a registration process governing the renting or leasing of privately owned visitor serving residential dwelling units on a short-term basis in order to maintain the long-term rental housing stock in the City; ensure the collection and payment of Transient Occupancy Taxes (“TOT”); and provide safeguards to the residents of the City of Long Beach that such short-term rental activities do not become a nuisance, or threaten the public health, safety or welfare of neighboring properties.

The primary goals of the proposed project are to: (1) create habitat that can successfully establish and support native plant and animal communities in the long term, (2) implement long-term water quality control measures, and (3) enhance the Lagoon's value as a recreational resource. The proposed project provides a framework to coordinate these various and potentially competing interests.

The proposed Conditional Use Permit Regulations Update (Project) is a Zoning Ordinance Amendment consisting of various changes to Title 21 of the Long Beach Municipal Code (Zoning Ordinance) to simplify the process and time to obtain a Conditional Use Permit. Changes include: 1) amending processes so certain land uses do not require Conditional Use Permits; 2) modernizing development standards; 3) organizing the standards in an easier-to-use format; and 4) amending the notification requirements to reduce cost and increase options.

Prologis (the project Applicant) plans to construct the proposed project on an approximately 10-acre (ac) site on the north side of Pacific Coast Highway (PCH), also known as State Route 1 (SR-1), between Cota Avenue and Hayes Avenue in the City of Long Beach (City). The proposed project would include approximately 205,060 square feet (sf) of warehousing land use, including approximately 20,000 sf of office space. The proposed project is intended to meet growing demand for warehouse space in West Long Beach.

The project proposes to expand Davenport Park, located directly east of the project site at 2910 East 55th Way, to an abutting undeveloped parcel. The existing site and the adjacent 5.5-acre Davenport Park site were formerly occupied by a municipal waste landfill and later by the Cal Coast Packing Crating Company. The industrial use is no longer in operation on the site, and the landfill has since been closed and capped in compliance with the California Department of Resources, Recycling, and Recovery (CalRecycle) Closed, Illegal, and Abandoned Disposal Site (CIA) program and the CalRecycle Solid Waste Cleanup Program (Assembly Bill [AB] 2136). The existing site is characterized by the presence of scattered vegetation and soil.

The proposed project would expand the existing 5.5-acre Davenport Park by approximately 6 acres, for total park size of approximately 11.5 acres. Features proposed as part of the park expansion would include a sports field located on the central and western portion of the site, four sets of three‐level bleachers on each side of the sports field, six fitness equipment pads, a skate park, parking spaces on the northern portion of the site, and shaded picnic facilities. The park would include landscaping, irrigation, walking paths, seating areas, and trash receptacles. In addition, security lighting would be provided throughout the project site.

The proposed project would involve the demolition of the existing church and the construction of 40 twostory single family residences. The residential lots would range from 3,696 sf to 5,681 sf in size. This section describes the project applicant, project location, existing site characteristics, the proposed project's characteristics, project objectives, and approvals needed to implement the project.

CEQA Findings and MMRP

As an amendment to the adopted Mobility Element of the City's General Plan, the proposed Downtown and TOD Pedestrian Master Plan (PMP) is intended to provide policies, guidelines and standards to ensure that all capital projects incorporate best practices for pedestrian design. The PMP identifies high priority catalytic infrastructure investments that the City of Long Beach can implement over the next 15 years. The PMP will be consistent with, and further define, the Downtown Plan and Pedestrian Priority Areas identified in the Mobility Element. The PMP will work as a model or framework for the rest of the City. It will include a list of capital improvement projects so the City can pursue funding. It will include short-term (detailed), mid-term and long-term projects along with cost estimates for the short-term projects to assist in the grant process funding. The PMP will give guidance to the City's Public Works Department for urban design issues.

The proposed project for the purpose of this Addendum includes two components:  1) the “Equivalency Program” to allow for the exchange among permitted uses; and 2) the development of the 108-unit primarily residential, mixed-use project at 7th Street and Locust Avenue (636 Locust Ave).

The project scope includes a Land Use Equivalency Program (Equivalency Program), which anticipates the exchange of floor area previously analyzed for commercial and office uses and hotel units within the Downtown Plan Program Environmental Impact Report (PEIR) (SCH No.2009071006) to residential dwelling units. The exchange would add  “capacity” for the future development of approximately, 3,260 additional residential units and involve a commensurate level of reduction of nonresidential uses within the Downtown Plan (PD-30) using an Equivalency Program included in the Addendum to PD-30.

The proposed development  7th and Locust would replace a former Firestone Auto Care facility with a new, seven-story, mixed-use building containing 108 dwelling units, 1,188 sq. ft. of ground-floor commercial uses, and an integrated four-level, 135 stall parking garage.

The proposed project includes the development of an 8.75 ac new park facility on existing vacant parcels. The proposed project would consist of one striped soccer field, large landscaped open space/passive park areas, a pedestrian walking trail, restroom facilities, and parking (Table 2.2.A). The proposed park would incorporate the existing Loma Vista Park into the new park layout by removing the existing chain-link fencing along the northeastern portions of Loma Vista Park. In addition, the proposed project would use a portion of a City-owned parking lot located near the northwest area of the project site to accommodate the proposed passive park space. The proposed Drake Park Soccer Field Project would be linear in form and would be characterized by an 8 foot (ft) wide pedestrian trail traversing the park from the northeast to southwest. The northeast entrance at Anaheim Street and N. Daisy Avenue is envisioned to be a gateway entrance to the proposed park.

The proposed Enhanced Density Bonus Ordinance would amend several sections of the Long Beach Municipal Code (LBMC) to facilitate the development of mixed income multi-family housing by establishing regulations that offer a density bonus and development concessions in exchange for the provision of on-site, deed-restricted, very low-, low-, or moderate-income housing units. Additional information on this project can be found on our Special Studies & Reports page.

The project is the adoption and implementation of the proposed Long Beach Downtown Plan (DTP), which would replace the existing PD-30 planned development ordinance for the DTP area. The proposed DTP would incorporate zoning, development standards, and design guidelines to establish design and development criteria to guide new development that would be consistent with the community vision for the Downtown.

The project site consists of ten lots on 1.38 acres: five located in the City of Long Beach and five in the City of Signal Hill. The five lots located in Long Beach total 30,198 square feet and are located on the east side of Atlantic Avenue and north of East 33rd Street at 3300 Atlantic Avenue. The applicant is proposing to construct a new single-story, 14,304 square-foot Fresh & Easy Neighborhood Market with 17 parking spaces north of the building on the .69-acre Long Beach site. Two accessory parking lots, separated from the market by a 20' wide alley and containing a total of 52 parking stalls, comprise the remaining project acreage and lie within the City of Signal Hill. The lots in Signal Hill consist of a 100' wide x 120' deep parcel and a 150' wide x 120' deep parcel separated by 100'. Both of these lots will be improved as open parking lots for the retail use. The parking lots also contain a trash enclosure, transformer, and cart corral.

The Globemaster Corridor Specific Plan (GCSP) would guide land uses for the approximately 438.3-acre Plan Area and allow development within this Plan Area as defined in the GCSP. The GCSP creates a policy framework for the development and improvement of the Plan Area into an employment district in an area adjacent to the Long Beach Airport, Port of Long Beach, I-405 freeway, and surrounding residential and business community.

The GCSP assigns appropriate land use districts for land properties within the Plan Area, including six development districts and two overlay zones: Business Park, Community Commercial, Industrial Commercial, General Industrial, Airport, Open Space, Cherry Avenue Overlay Zone, and Airport Environs Overlay Zone. The GCSP establishes a land use and mobility plan, land use and development regulations, urban design guidelines, infrastructure systems, and implementation and administration necessary to becoming a flexible commercial and industrial district in the City. No residential component is included in the GCSP.

The current draft of the GCSP may be viewed online at: http://www.longbeach.gov/lbds/planning/globemaster-corridor-specific-plan/

A public hearing was held before the Planning Commission on December 17, 2020 to recommend that the City Council certify the Program EIR/EIS-03-17. A public hearing will be held before the City Council on May 18, 2021 for consideration to certify the Program EIR/EIS-03-17.

The proposed project would provide new residential, office, retail, and potential hotel uses, along with associated parking and open space. The project includes three development options, a Residential Option and two Hotel Options, all of which would be entitled through the City of Long Beach. The option ultimately constructed would be selected based on market conditions prevailing at the time entitlement is complete.

This Historic Preservation Element is intended to better integrate historic preservation into City procedures and interdepartmental decisions, and to create a meaningful partnership with the community in order to implement the City's historic preservation program. As set forth in the Vision Statement, the Historic Preservation Element is intended to ensure that the rich history of Long Beach is preserved through the identification, protection, and celebration of its historic resources which are valued for their role in the City's environment, urban design, economic prosperity, and contributions to the quality of life in its neighborhoods. The Historic Preservation Element establishes the goals, policies and implementation measures that affirm the City's commitment to historic preservation.

The City is the Lead Agency for the project and will prepare the EIR in accordance with the requirements of CEQA and the State CEQA Guidelines. In early 2008, the City prepared an Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) for the Alamitos Bay Marina Rehabilitation Project. Mitigation measures to reduce potentially significant effects to less than significant levels were incorporated into the project, and the IS/MND was circulated for public review from April 4, 2008 to May 5, 2008. Comments were received from reviewing agencies and issues were raised in the comments received that have yet to be resolved. Therefore, due to and abundance of caution, the City has elected to elevate the level of CEQA review to an EIR.

The project involves construction of an approximately 6,480 square foot (sf) building to the east of the existing community center, which would connect via a breezeway. The existing building consists of three parts: the first built in the 1930s, the second added in the 1950s to the north of the 1930s building, and the third extended the 1950s building to the west (built in the 1980s). In addition, the project involves a partial renovation of the existing 1950s building and also a demolition of part of the 1980s wing to the west (4,340 sf) and a portion of the 1959 wing to the east (869 sf). The project would also include demolition of the restroom building (677 sf) south of the 1930s building. Approximately 5,886 sf of total building area would be demolished, and the proposed project would increase the total building area by approximately 594 sf. The project includes a goal of achieving LEED Silver in the proposed building.

The proposed project is an update to the City's existing General Plan and is intended to guide growth and future development through the year 2040. The proposed project includes the approval of both the General Plan Land Use Element (LUE) and Urban Design Element (UDE), which would replace the existing LUE and Scenic Routes Element, respectively. The proposed LUE would introduce the concept of "PlaceTypes," which would replace the current approach in the existing LUE of segregating property within the City through traditional land use designations and zoning classifications. PlaceTypes would divide the City into distinct neighborhoods, thus allowing for greater flexibility and mix of compatible land uses within the areas. The proposed UDE would define the physical aspects of the urban environment and would facilitate the PlaceTypes extablished in the proposed LUE by creating sustainable places; improving the urban fabric and public spaces; and degining edges, thoroughfares, and corridors.

The proposed project involves a new four-story, 102,848-square-foot office building that is up to 74 feet in height and a separate three-story parking structure with 343 parking spaces. The project will require the vacation of the alley running south from 35th Street. A zone change for ten parcels: five existing lots front on Long Beach Boulevard from Community Commercial Automobile-Oriented (CCA) District to Community R-4-N Commercial (CCN) District and five existing lots fronting on conjunction with a General Plan Amendment LUD 1 to LUD 8. A zoning code amendment to permit the averaging of setbacks within the High-Rise Overlay (HR-4) District. A tentative tract map to create a single lot for development.

Following a preliminary review of the proposed project, the City of Long Beach determined that the improvements are subject to the guidelines and regulations of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The City has determined an Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) to be the appropriate level of environmental analysis under the provisions of CEQA. As the City is seeking a transfer of land under the Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) program (or a transition of surplus military property to civilian uses), the proposed project is also subject to environmental review under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) (implementation of which is reviewed and approved by the U.S. Department of the Army). NEPA documentation associated with the proposed project will be processed by the Department of the Army under separate cover.

The City is proposing to amend the Long Beach Municipal Code (LBMC) by adopting the triennial 2019 California Building Standards Code (Code) and incorporating minor editorial revisions to LBMC Title 21, Zoning. The triennial 2019 Code update establishes uniform standards for the construction and maintenance of buildings, electrical systems, plumbing systems, mechanical systems, and fire and life safety systems. Adopting the Code update and editorial revisions to LBMC Title 21, Zoning, would provide enhanced clarity and consistency in application to future development in Long Beach.

The project proposes to amend Title 18 of the Long Beach Municipal Code (LBMC) by adding Chapter 18.78, Construction in the Vicinity of Oil Wells, and Chapter 18.79, Methane Gas Mitigation. Chapter 18.78 requires the permittee of construction activities in the vicinity of oil/gas wells to submit documents with details on proposed well abandonment, future accessibility, above-well mitigation, and long-term safety evaluation to the California Geologic Energy Management Division and the City. Chapter 18.79 details the applicability of methane mitigation requirements, definitions, methane soil gas investigation, exemptions, site design levels, methane mitigation components, operations and maintenance, plan review and inspections, and post construction protocols, among others. Adopting Chapters 18.78 and 18.79 into LBMC Title 18, Long Beach Building Standards Code, would provide clarity and procedures for future development in the vicinity of oil/gas wells in Long Beach.

The project site is a portion of the existing Salvation Army Citadel Campus. The campus is partially developed with a social services building, administrative offices, a chapel hall, a 2,650 square foot multipurpose room, and a parking lot. The rest of the site is vacant.

The project involves the construction of a two-story gymnasium with a fitness center and activity room. The project would also include a new 70-space parking lot (described below) and a youth soccer field. The project would require the vacation of a portion of Elm Avenue that passes through the site and a north south alley located between Elm and Pasadena Avenue. Elm Street would become a cul-de-sac at the northern site boundary. Gym access would be provided by drive lanes from Spring Street and Long Beach Boulevard, through the existing parking lot located at the intersections of these two streets. Landscaped areas and decorative fences would be located along the main street corridors and along the perimeter of the campus area. Monument signs would be located at the corner points of the campus. A hammerhead turn is proposed on Elm Avenue, which would provide easier emergency access.

PROPOSED MARITIME IMPROVEMENTS.

1. Dredging. Deepening the existing berth from its current design depth of 30 feet MLLW (Mean Lower Low Water) plus one foot to a new design depth of 36 feet MLLW plus one foot of over-dredge for a total depth of 37 feet MLLW. It is estimated that the dredging volume would total approximately 33,250 cubic yards, consisting of:
   
   

   • 28,250 cubic yards within the existing berth; and
   • 5,000 cubic yards within the proposed berth extension area.

   The project would include disposal of approximately 33,250 cubic yards of dredged materials at the LA-2 Ocean Dredge Material Disposal Site located offshore approximately 11 miles southwest of the cruise terminal.
   
   
2. Mooring Dolphins and Catwalks. Two high-capacity, pile-founded mooring dolphins and associated catwalks are proposed on both sides of the wharf deck to allow for adequate mooring capacity and stability. The proposed dolphins would be structurally designed similar to the existing dolphins located off the northern and southern ends of the deck. All dolphins would connect back to the wharf deck via catwalk bridge elements.
   
   
3. Passenger Walkway Bridge Extension. An extension to the existing passenger walkway bridge system with an added ramp section is proposed to accommodate the new ship. This would include a new tower element on the existing wharf deck and a new tower on a new platform deck using new or current piles just south of the existing wharf deck. The passenger walkway bridge extension and associated tower element would be designed to follow the specifications and design criteria of the existing gangway, to be adjustable for tidal conditions while remaining within Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) allowances.
   
   
4. Fender Replacements. The project would also replace the existing worn foam-filled fenders with new oversized high-density foam-filled fenders and backing plates.
   
   
5. Proposed Water Lease. Carnival is proposing to expand its existing water lease from POLB from 7.81 acres to 11.8 acres to encompass the additional dredged area required as part of the project. The total over-water work area is approximately 17.06 acres, which includes the proposed water lease area as well as the dredge extents.
   
   

PROPOSED ONSHORE IMPROVEMENTS

1. Parking Garage Expansion. The project would expand the existing parking garage from 1,430 parking spaces to approximately 2,055 parking spaces by extending the parking garage laterally towards the southwest and northeast. Both the southwest and northeast extensions would occur over existing roadways within the leasehold, with vertical clearance heights maintained for all through traffic lanes to accommodate commercial vehicles, including emergency response vehicles (i.e., Long Beach Fire Department Station 6 vehicles).
   
   
   
2. Tunnel Abandonment. The 450-foot tunnel system located to the southwest of the parking garage along Windsor Way would be filled and abandoned.
   
   
   
3. Traffic Lane Reconfiguration. Traffic lanes around the southern corner of the existing parking garage would be reconfigured. Existing traffic is open in both directions to the public with traffic moving counter-clockwise on the outside lanes and clockwise on the inside lanes. The project would modify the traffic lane configurations to be open to the public only on the inside lane in a counter-clockwise direction to allow a fire lane along the outside lane to travel in a clockwise direction.

The proposed Drive-Through Use Zoning Code Amendment (Project) would consist of the following changes to Title 21 of the Long Beach Municipal Code (Zoning Ordinance) collectively referred to as the "Project":
1) create a zoning code definition for drive-through facilities;
2) update the commercial and industrial zones permitted use tables with the new drive through facility definition;
3) require a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for new fast food drive-throughs and expansions in industrial zones and in all Planned Development districts for consistency with the existing review process in the commercial zones that allow this use;
4) make reference to the design guidelines that will be developed at a later time and will supplement the drive-through regulations in the zoning code;
5) include a provision to address the demolition and/or rebuilding of a drive-through facility approved under a previous CUP and subsequently, made legally nonconforming with the Project; and 6) provide new required findings specific to the drive-through use.

A request to construct an 80,000-square-foot, four medical office building, and surface parking lot in the Midtown Specific Plan (SP-1-M) District.

The proposed project includes facilities intended to improve water quality associated with urban runoff in the project area, which ultimately flows into the LA River. The project includes two primary project components: 1) the municipal urban stormwater treatment (MUST) facility; and 2) conveyance facilities/diversion structures to carry urban runoff to the MUST facility for treatment. A detailed description of the proposed project is provided in Section 2.5, Project Characteristics of the IS/MND. A depiction/overview of the proposed MUST and associated conveyance facilities on a regional basis is provided in Exhibit 2-3, Project Overview of the IS/MND.

A depiction/overview of the proposed MUST and associated conveyance facilities on a regional basis is provided in Exhibit 2-3, Project Overview.

The proposed ordinance would ban the issuance of plastic carryout bags and impose a 10 cent charge on the issuance of recyclable paper carryout bags at all supermarkets and other grocery stores, pharmacies, drug stores, convenience stores, foodmarts, and Long Beach farmers markets. The ordinance would require a store to provide or make available to a customer only recyclable paper carryout bags or reusable bags. The ordinance would also encourage a store to educate its staff to promote reusable bags and to post signs encouraging customers to use reusable bags.

The project analyzed under this EIR Addendum represents a modification of the previously approved Sports Park project. The original 2006 Final Recirculated EIR for the Sports Park project was certified by the Long Beach City Council on April 18, 2006.

The project would implement a comprehensive wetlands restoration project which will restore a privately-owned oil field in the City of Long Beach through creation of a wetlands mitigation bank. The project includes the relocation of certain oil facilities currently located on the Synergy Oil Field and City-owned property to two off-site properties (Los Cerritos Wetland Authority Site and Pumpkin Patch site).

The project, which includes a Zoning Code Amendment (ZCA17-012) and Local Coastal Program Amendment (LCPA17-007), involves proposed amendments to the Long Beach Municipal Code (LBMC) to expand the procedural and operating requirements for massage establishments. Amendments to LBMC Title 5 (Regulation of Businesses, Trades and Professions) include mandatory California Massage Therapy Council (CAMTC) certification for all massage practitioners, Police Department review of all massage license applications, a prohibition on operating hours between 10:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m., and a prohibition on the use, possession, or sale of adult-oriented merchandise, alcohol, or controlled substances. Amendments to LBMC Title 21 (Zoning Regulations) include removing primary use massage establishments from the "Adult Entertainment Business" definition, changing the "Massage Therapy" definition to "Massage Establishment," and requiring an Administrative Use Permit for primary Massage Establishment uses in commercial zoning districts. Additionally, special conditions for primary use Massage Establishments will be added to LBMC Chapter 21.52. These conditions include a 500-foot buffer between primary use Massage Establishments, window coverage restrictions, and a requirement to post an on-premises notice containing resource information related to human trafficking. Massage operations in conjunction with select commercial uses (hotel over 100 rooms, physician, chiropractor, health club, beauty salon, nail salon, and similar uses) will remain permitted as an accessory use only to these select commercial uses.

The project consists of a four-story, 100% affordable senior housing development consisting of 68 residential units and 4,000 square feet of commercial tenant space.  The project includes 67 units to be 100-percent senior affordable housing units and one manager unit.  Conditional Use Permit is requested to permit the operation of the senior housing development.  The project site is currently zoned Regional Highway District (CHW) and the project includes a Zone Change to the Community R-4-N District (CCN) to allow the senior housing project.

The Midtown Specific Plan (Specific Plan) provides a framework for the development and improvement of a 353-acre corridor along Long Beach Boulevard. The Specific Plan would increase the number of permitted residential units within the Specific Plan area to just over 3,600 units (a net increase of 1,800 units over existing conditions) and the commercial and employment building square footage to just under 2.8 million square feet (a net increase of almost 350,000 square feet over existing conditions). The buildout projections also assume a small increase in the number of licensed hospital beds and addition of a business hotel.

The Mobility Element focuses on the circulation component of the City of Long Beach General Plan and will replace the adopted 1991 Transportation Element. Compared to the current Transportation Element, the proposed update places more emphasis on pedestrian, bicycling and public transit options, and transformative infrastructure prepared in compliance with the 2008 Complete Streets Act (Assembly Bill 1358), which mandates that circulation elements to include concepts for a balanced, multimodal transportation network that meets the needs of all users of streets and highways including motorists, pedestrians, bicyclists, children, person with disabilities, seniors, movers of commercial goods and user of public transportation.

The design of the proposed Civic Center project follows the guidance of the Downtown Plan, which was adopted in January 2012. A Final Program Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) was prepared for the Downtown Plan in accordance with CEQA and certified in January 2012. The project includes a new City Hall, a new Port Building for Harbor Department administration, a new and relocated Main Library, a redeveloped Lincoln Park, a residential development, and a commercial mixed use development. In total, the proposal includes six new buildings, three new parking garages, related infrastructure and landscaping, and two new public street extensions of Chestnut Avenue and Cedar Avenue through the project site. Both the City Hall and Port buildings would be 11 stories in height. The project also includes the demolition of the former Long Beach Courthouse building. The Long Beach Courthouse Demolition Project was studied in a Draft EIR (SCH# 2014051003) that was circulated in October and November of 2014.

The proposed project involves the redevelopment of an approximately 6.3-acre site in the City of Long Beach with a mixed-use village centeral project. This section describes the project location, characteristics of the site and the proposed development, project objectives, and the approvals needed to implement the project.

The proposed project would include the demolition of existing structures, the development of 51 condominium units and the remodel of an existing building to maintain 11 motel units. The residential development would be four stories in height above street level and would have two levels of subterranean parking. Vehicular access to the subterranean garage would be from 11th Place and Bluff Place. The demolition and construction activities are estimated to take approximately 18 months from commencement of work.

The project proposes a 216-unit multi-family/mixed-use apartment complex on the 1.76-acre site. The project would include a single structure that would consist of seven levels along West Ocean Boulevard and five levels along West Seaside Way, above a two-level parking structure with ingress/egress along West Seaside Way. The apartment structure would reach a maximum height of 85 feet above West Ocean Boulevard grade and 106.5 feet above West Seaside Way grade. The apartment units would include a mixture of studios, and one-, two-, and three-bedroom configurations. Additionally, the project proposes to implement improvements at Victory Park on the northern portion of the project site along West Ocean Boulevard as well as a dog and fitness park on the southwest corner of the project site. Per CEQA Guidelines Section 15072(g)(5), the project site is not listed as a hazardous property as designated under Section 65962.5 of the Government Code.

The proposed Zoning Code Amendments – September 2019 (Project) would consist of changes categorized henceforth in this document by ‘land use’, ‘development standards’, and ‘administrative procedures’, collectively referred to as the “Project.” The specific extent of the changes to Title 21 of the Long Beach Municipal Code (Zoning Ordinance) are described as follows:
1) Land Use: Define and provide regulations for the following uses currently undefined in the Zoning Code:
a. Indoor and outdoor amusement/entertainment facilities, including escape rooms and similar uses;
b. Tutoring centers;
c. Animal-related uses including ancillary animal adoption and boarding related uses;
2) Development Standards: Make the following changes to existing development standards:
a. Eliminate required distance between structures on a single property within residential zoning districts;
