body

Statement of Issue:
Transmitted for City Council's consideration is Zoning Text Amendment No. 23-002, part of a City-initiated request to amend Chapter 212 of the Huntington Beach Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance (HBZSO) to update definitions and processes. The proposed changes were part of a larger ZTA packet that was approved by the City Council at the May 7, 2024, City Council meeting (Attachment No. 3). After adoption, a clerical error was discovered in the ordinance pertaining to Chapter 212. The proposed ordinance corrects the error and restores the City Council's originally intended approval.

Financial Impact:
Not applicable

Recommended Action:
recommendation
A) Find Zoning Text Amendment No. 23-002 exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to City Council Resolution No. 4501, Class 20, which supplements the California Environmental Quality Act because the request is a minor amendment to the zoning ordinance that does not change the development standards intensity or density;

B) Approve Zoning Text Amendment No. 23-002 with findings (Attachment No. 1) and approve for introduction Ordinance No. 4310, "An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Amending Chapter 212 I Industrial Districts of the Huntington Beach Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance (Zoning Text Amendment No. 23-002)"; (Attachment No. 2)
end

Alternative Action(s):
Do not approve, and direct staff accordingly.
