EXHIBIT G Northeast Los Angeles (NELA) Hillsides Work Program What is the Northeast Los Angeles (NELA) Hillsides Work Program? The NELA Hillsides Work Program is the directive that resulted out of the adoption of the Interim Control Ordinance (ICO) by the Los Angeles City Council in December 2006. The purpose of the NELA Hillsides Work Program is to review and assess issues such as the minimization of grading and soil erosion, protection of ridgelines and landforms, protection of plant life and wildlife, appropriate scales of hillside development, and, adequate access for residents and emergency vehicles in the Northeast Los Angeles hillside areas of Mount Olympus, Paradise Hill, Rose Hill, El Sereno, and Monterey Hills. The goals of the NELA Hillsides Work Program are to identify issues and opportunities in the hillside communities, set objectives, and develop land use regulations that promote policies and objectives of the Northeast Los Angeles Community Plan for development in the hillsides that: • are appropriate in scale and minimally disruptive of the natural terrain, vegetation, water courses and wildlife; • ensure that future developments improve the identity and appearance of neighborhoods and communities through scale, height, bulk, setbacks, design, and landscaping parameters; • give consideration for the steepness of the topography and geological stability in any proposal for development; • ensure the availability of adequate infrastructure and access to emergency services; and, • promote the protection of natural resources. Focus Group* Purpose: • The focus groups help identify the issues and opportunities related to hillside development and conservation. • The focus groups explore ways to promote good planning principles by soliciting community input that will be used to develop land use regulations which will promote appropriate development in the Northeast Los Angeles hillsides.

LOS ANGELES CITY PLANNING DEPARTMENT Prepared by City of Los Angeles Planning Department • Graphic Services Section • May, 2007 Northeast Los Angeles (NELA) Hillsides Work Program Partial Summary of Existing Hillside Related Ordinances Citywide Hillside Ordinance This Ordinance governs development of hillside lots for new construction, additions and remodeling and establish‑ es regulations and definitions for height, front and side yards, fire protection, lot coverage, parking, street access, sewer connections, and grading. The regulations include the following: • Height ‑ On any lot with a slope of 66% or less, as measured from the lowest point of elevation of the lot to the highest, the building or structure shall be limited to 36 feet. If the lot has a slope of greater than 66%, the building shall be limited to 45 feet in height as measured from the natural grade. There is an exception for lots with exist‑ ing structure(s) where the exterior wall of the main building is within 5 horizontal feet when measuring the slope of the lot, height is then limited to 36 fee • Parking ‑ Single Family Dwellings which front substandard streets and exceed 2400 sq. ft. of combined FAR require 1 additional parking space for each 1000 sq. ft. or fraction thereof for a maximum of 5 total spaces • Streets ‑ At least 1/2 of the width of the street is required to be dedicated for the full width of the lot to Stan‑ dard Hillside Limited Street dimensions prior to issuance of a permit for new construction of or addition to a single family dwelling. • Front Yards ‑ For lots fronting Hillside designated streets, a minimum of 5 feet front yard setbacks are required. • Side Yards ‑ For any main building on a lot in the RA, RE, RS, R1, and RD zones, the required side yard shall be increased 1 additional foot for each 10 foot increment above the first 18 feet of height of the building. Retaining Wall Ordinance This Ordinance limits the height and number of retaining walls and has landscaping requirements for retaining walls 8 feet or higher. This ordinance is applicable to A or R zones (including RA) in designated Hillside Areas. The Oaks Neighborhood Study and Interim Control Ordinance (ICO) (proposed) This study examines the issue of new development in the hillside community of The Oaks for the purpose of estab‑ lishing permanent regulations in this community. Some of the community concerns include out‑of‑scale structures, box‑like structures, parking, disruption of the neighborhood character, and loss of private open space. Protected Tree Ordinance This Ordinance protects 1) all oak trees, except the Scrub Oaks, 2) Southern California Black Walnuts, 3) Western Sycamores, and 4) California Bays from being removed or relocated. In addition, each tree needs to be a certain height and trunk width to be considered protected. In some circumstances, a protected tree may be removed, but it must be replaced with new trees at a 2:1 ratio of the same species. Mulholland Scenic Parkway Specific Plan This Specific Plan sets standards for environmental protection, vista point protection, utility construction, and building and grading within defined inner and outer corridors of the Parkway. The Specific Plan also established a Design Review Board. San Gabriel/Verdugo Mountains Scenic Preservation Specific Plan This Specific Plan sets standards that ensure prominent ridgeline protection, biological resource protection, scenic highway corridors viewshed protection, and equinekeeping district standards, equestrian trails, and domestic livestock.

Spring St., Rm. 667 Los Angeles, CA 90012 (213) 978-2666 [email protected] LOS ANGELES CITY PLANNING DEPARTMENT Prepared by City of Los Angeles Planning Department • Graphic Services Section • May, 2007 Northeast Los Angeles (NELA) Hillsides Work Program Mt. Washington/Glassell Park Specific Plan Key Elements 1. Why should we look at the Mt. Washington/Glassell Park Specific Plan? The plan, adopted in 1993, has guided development in the hillside areas located within the Mt. Washington/Glassell Park Specific Plan(MWGPSP) boundaries. The topography, natural vegetation, land use concerns, and public safety issues within the boundaries share very similar traits to the issues addressed by the Interim Control Ordinance (ICO). 2. How does the MWGPSP currently guide development within the Specific Plan boundaries? An important guideline to regulate development is implementation of a Floor Area Ratio (FAR) cap. FAR is the ratio of building square footage to the square footage of its site. This calculation creates a number that determines the maximum floor area of all the buildings on a lot. The MWGPSP has multiple FAR calculations to use based on a particular lot size: For a lot that is 5,000 SF or less, the FAR is 0.5:1 (0.5 times the lot area) For a lot that is 5,000 to 10,000 the FAR is determined by this formula: For a lot that is 10,000 to 15,000 the FAR is determined by this formula: 0.5 - 0.4 - (area-5,000) x 0.10 5000 Example: 0.5 - (area-5,000) x 0.08 5000 Example: (7,500-5,000) x 0.10 5000 Creates an FAR of: 0.45 A second standard is a restriction on height for structures. The Specific Plan utilizes a building stepback system which is measured from the front lot line to discourage high sheer walls that are too close to the public right of way. The Plan uses two different stepback maximum heights: 15’ of height 6’ away from the lot line, and 24’ of height 12’ away. Under no condition can a building exceed 45’. 0.4 - (12,500-10,000) x 0.08 5000 Creates an FAR of: 0.36 Front yards should be a distance that is equal to the average depths of existing front yards 200’ on either side of the lot lines of a proposed project. The homes 200’ away from the proposed home in the shaded lot have front yards of 14, 14, 18, and 20 feet, therefore the new home has the average of the 4 homes, which is 16.5 feet. 3. How does the MWGPSP ensure grading and site planning is performed with minimal disturbance to the natural topography? The Department of Building and Safety reviews all grading projects to gauge conformance to the building code and also the Planning Guidelines for Landform Grading Manual. The Planning Department performs environmental review which includes standard industry practices of minimizing the environmental impacts of development in hillside areas. 4. Does the MWGPSP apply to small projects as well as large projects? Is there any project exempt from the Specific Plan? There are some projects that do not fall under the review of the Specific Plan. These include remodeling and restoration work to a residence that does not add any height, floor area, rooms, or second units to an existing structure. Further, most room additions are exempt. However, additions that exceed 200 square feet or increase the height of the structure require a review through the Specific Plan. 5. How does the MWGPSP protect native vegetation? The Specific Plan restrictions and regulations for the removal and replacement of native or significant trees located on privately owned lots and not within the public right of way. Each tree must meet certain criteria to be considered native or significant. In addition, there are restrictions on grading and other construction activities that may occur within the dripline of a native or significant tree.

CP-7150 (7/31/03) (Rv 10/23/03) Plan De Procedimiento Para Los Laderos De Los Cerros Del Noreste De Los Angeles ¿Qué Es El Plan De Procedimiento Para Los Laderos De Los Cerros Del Noreste De Los Angeles? El plan de procedimiento para los laderos de los cerros del noreste de Los Angeles es un directivo cual resultó de la adopción de la ordenanza de control ínterin (ICO) por el Consejal de La Ciudad de Los Angeles en deciembre del 2006. El propósito del plan de procedimiento para los laderos de los cerros del noreste de Los Angeles es para revisar e identificar problemas como la reducción de graduación y erosión de los laderos de los cerros durante construción, protección de los cantos de los cerros, protección del fauno y los árboles en peligro de extincción, escala apropiado para desarrollo en los laderos de los cerros, y acceso adecuado para residentes y vehiculos de emergencia el las areas de los laderos de cerros en el noreste de Los Angeles de Mount Olympus, Paradise Hills, Rose Hill, El Sereno, y Monterey Hills. Las metas del plan de procedimiento para los laderos de los cerros del noreste de Los Angeles quieren identificar problemas y oportunidades en las comunidades cuales estan en los laderos de los cerros, hacer objetivos, crear regulaciones para el desarrollo que promueven polisas y objetivos del plan comunitario del noreste de Los Angeles que: • Son apropiado en escala y disruptan mínimamente el terreno, vegetación natural, caidas de la lluvia e agua, y el fauna; • Aseguran que el desarrollo que venga mejora la identificación y aparencia de las vecindades y comunidades através de escala, altura, bulto, límites fronteros y laderos, diseño, y parámetros de jardines; • Dan consideración para la altura y escarpado de los cerros y estabilidad geológica en proyectos propuestos; • Aseguran la disponibilidad de infrastructura adecuada y acceso a servicios de emergencia; y, • Promueven la protección de recursos naturales. Proposito del Grupo de Enfoque*: Los grupos de enfoque ayudan identificar los problemas e oportunidades con respeto al desarrollo de los laderos de los cerros y conservación. Los grupos de enfoque exploran maneras para promover principios de planificación buenas através de solicitar opiniones de la comunidad cuales se usarán para crear las regulaciones para el desarrollo que promueven desarrollo apropiado en los laderos de los cerros del noreste de Los Angeles Para más información, favor de contactar: Gabriela Juárez City Planning Department 200 N.

Prepared by City of Los Angeles Planning Department • Graphic Services Section • May, 2007 Plan De Procedimiento Para Los Laderos De Los Cerros Del Noreste De Los Angeles Sumario Parcial de Ordenanzas Existentes de Desarrollo en los Cerros Ordenanza del Desarrollo en los Laderos de Los Cerros en toda la Cuidad (Citywide Hillside Ordinance) Esta ordenanza dicta las regulaciones para la nueva construcción, adiciones, y remodelos de los lotes que estan en los laderos de los cerros y difina altura, límites fronteros y laderos, protección de fuegos, bulto en un lote, estacionamiento, acceso a las calles, conecciones a las alcantarillas, y graduación de los laderos de los cerros. Las regulaciones incluyen: • Altura – El edificio estará limitado a 36 pies de altura en cualquiera lote que tenga graduación de 66% o menos, medido del punto más bajo de elevación del lote al más alto. Si el lote tiene una graduación más de 66%, el edificio será limitado a 45 pies de altura. Hay una excepción para lotes con edificios existentes donde la pared exterior del edificio principal esta dentro de 5 pies horizontales cuando estan midiendo la graduación, la altura en ése caso esta limitado a 36 pies. • Estacionamiento – Viviendas para familias sencillas cuales enfrentan calles más estrechas que lo normal y exijen 2400 pies cuadrados de la proporción de área a piso requiere un espacio de estacionamiento adicional para cada 1000 pies cuadrados adicionales o una fracción de la calculación con un máximo de 5 espacios en total. • Calles – A Lo mínimo la mitad de la anchura de la calle esta requerida ser dedicada por toda la anchura entera del lote a las dimensiones de calles que estan en los cerros limitadas (Standard Hillside Limited Streets) antes que se pueda obtener un permiso para nueva construcción o para adiciones a una vivienda para familias sencillas. • Límites Fronteros – Un mínimo de 5 pies de límite frontero esta requerido para lotes cuales enfrentan calles designadas como calles que estan en los cerros (Hillside designated). • Límites Laderos – El límite ladero se agregerá un pie adicional para cada incremento de 10 pies sobre los primero 18 pies de altura del edificio para cualquiera edificio principal en un lote que esta en las zonas: RA, RE, RS, R1, y RD. Ordenanza de la Paredes de Retención (Retaining Wall Ordinance) Esta ordenanza da límites a la altura y al número de paredes de retención y tiene requisitos de ajardinamiento para las paredes de retención de 8 pies o más en altura. Esta ordenanza es aplicable a lotes designadas laderas de cerro (designated Hillside Areas) en las zonas A o R (incluyendo RA). Ordenanza de Control Interin (ICO) y Estudio de la Vecindad “The Oaks” (propuesto) Este estudio examina los problemas del desarrollo nuevo en las comunidad de “The Oaks” en los cerros de Hollywood para el propósito de estabelizar regulaciones permanentes en ésta comunidad.

Slope stability is being compromised by weather cycles (drought, flood, fire). Soils reports are not adequate under current regulations. Construction activity mitigation measures are not adequately addressing the physical impacts on the affected neighborhood. Grading is excessive and destablizes the hillsides. Current grading regulations do not distinguish between topography (upslope vs. downslope.) Existing building foundations and retaining walls are sliding. Environmental studies are not sufficiently identifying and disclosing major environmental existing conditions. Flood and drainage issues need to be addressed, especially with regard to retaining walls. Current hillside development regulations such as the Citywide Hillside Ordinance and the Retaining Wall Ordinance promote grading and limit landscaping. Lack of landscaping contributes to the slope instability in new development projects. More effective erosion control methods to help slope stability. Emergency Access Safety considerations should be priority concern in all aspects of hillside development regulations. Narrow roads are an obstacle for emergency vehicle access. Emergency services are compromised because of narrow and/or unimproved roads. Adequate Infrastructure Insufficient sewer access, street access, sidewalks, fire hydrants, utility lines. New development will need increased/expanded infrastructure. New development is occurring without necessary street improvements Septic tanks are privately maintained inadequately. Sensitive and appropriate hillside road planning and building such that new development is encouraged. Inadequate street network and paved streets do not allow for street parking. primary land use categories to help guide development of the final text. *Please Note: The following is a summary of land use issues broken down into DRAFT NORTHEAST LOS ANGELES HILLSIDES WORK PROGRAM This summary was compiled from input received by community members who attended focus groups meetings held in June and July 2007. If you have any questions, would like to be putLand on theUse mailing list, or have comments you would like to share, please Focus Group Summary Table* feel free to contact the lead Planner for this project, Gabriela Juarez, at (213) 978-1222, or e-mail at [email protected]. Mt. Washington/Glassell Park Specific Plan Concerns & Comments Grading impacts were not sufficiently addressed in regulations. FAR should continue to include garages and extend to carports. Increase linkages from Mt. Washington/Glassell Park area to existing parks. Recent changes in application procedure for Project Permit Compliance have noticeably aided in producing good projects. Page 2 of 3 Protection of Natural Resources, Vegetation & Wildlife Landscaping should be fire-resistant, drought tolerant, and stabilize slopes. A biological survey should be conducted to identify ecosystems (wildlife, plant life, etc.). An in-depth survey is needed to identify natural and cultural resources such as underground springs, Native American caves, natural watersheds, and horse trails. Balance development with preservation of open space. Create and maintain linkages among open spaces. Require vegetation that support existing wildlife (i.e. specific tree species). Protection of viewsheds of the hillsides and from the hillsides. Protection of the ridgelines in the area. Neighborhood Character, Identity & Scale DRAFT Tall box-like homes are not reflective of the neighborhood character and scale. Current hillside development regulations that address grading, height, retaining walls, and parking requirements do not account for up- or downslope parcels resulting in development that is incompatible in bulk and mass. Height measurement according to the Citywide Hillside Ordinance does not result in desired architectural designs. Hillside development regulations lack urban design requirements that address aspects such as modulation, architectural definition, and landscaping that ensure compatibility with neighborhood character, identity and scale. New development should have a 400-square foot allowance for garages and/or carports that does not count towards the FAR calculation. Favorable development would promote reduced height limits and permit terracing. Regulations need to vary based on lot typology in order to create compatible development in the various neighborhoods of the hillsides. Ridgeline development should preserve neighborhood character by lowering height limits and adjusting lot coverage. FAR should be reflective of the neighborhood scale. Affordability is key in preserving the historic neighborhood identity and development regulations need to be sensitive to issues of gentrification. Complicated and long permit processes will deter many of the long-time residents from building and cause a shift in the historic neighborhood identity. Pedestrian linkages, including the historic stairways, need to be preserved and given access to in new developments. Preserve the mixed-income aspect of the community. Page 3 of 3 Miscellaneous/Other Concerns & Comments Existing hillside development regulations are outdated now due to the rapid advancement of technology. ICO boundaries need to be reassessed by analyzing slope and contour. Citywide Hillside Ordinance is not clear in its descriptions and definitions of regulations required (i.e. instructions for measuring height, setbacks, etc.). Better interdepartmental coordination is needed to effectively enforce regulations. Mt. Washington/Glassell Park Specific Plan Concerns & Comments (cont'd.) DRAFT Downslope projects not sufficiently addressed in current regulations. FAR and height requirements are yielding desired type of development with minimal lot coverage and open space preserved. Native and protected trees requirements have been a positive addition. Regulation enforcement is not strong enough and is key for implementation. The Mt. Washington/Glassell Park Specific Plan has been an effective tool in guiding development but has opportunities for strengthening regulations (i.e. enforcement, construction activities mitigation, grading). Summary of Hillside Development Regulations Floor Area Calculations Factor(s) Used to Regulate Square Footage P-1 Method of Calculating Maximum Square Footage City of Los Angeles Hillside Ordinance Net lot area Maximum 300% of the net lot area, excluding required yards Northeast ICO Total lot area Ranges from 27% of total lot area to 50% of total lot area (including required yards), depending on lot size Mt.

Any portion of lot with slope of 50%+ is excluded from total lot area. For lots with an average slope over 15%, the allowable floor area is reduced by a function of steepness of the lot. For every 1% increase in average slope (over 15%), the maximum square footage is reduced by 0.5%. City of San Rafael Total lot area Maximum 10% of total lot area + 2,500 sq.ft. (with overall cap of 6,500 sq.ft.). Excludes first 120 sq.ft. of garage/accessory building. City of Santa Barbara Ranges from maximum of 2,200 sq. ft.

For split-level construction, each building component measured from its own site pad area) City of Beverly Hills 26' (may exceed this height if structure is max 22' at the front setback line, increasing toward rear of site at 33° slope to max height of 30'. Also, for portion of structure located more than 40' from front setback line, max height = 22'. Special height rules apply for uphill lots, construction over fill, construction over slope, and small pad lots.) 28' (for any point on the site), with 35' max. when measured from the lowest elevation on the site where the structure touches the grade to the highest point of the roof. Height measured as the distance from the existing grade to a line located above and parallel to the grade. Also, max 6' height between point City of Pasadena where foundation meets grade and the lowest floor line of structure. City of San Rafael 30' for dwelling, 15' for accessory structures. On a lot with a slope >25%, is measured vertically from the existing grade to the uppermost point roof edge or other feature perpendicular to that grade. height of the City of Santa Barbara 30'. Guidelines state that building should be set into the hillside, and house should be stepped up and down the hill, and height limited to prevent shading of neighboring lots. Vary height of building elements. Minimize areas of maximum height. The max. vert. height of a building or structure is based on natural grade. City of South Pasadena 28' to 24' depending on slope of roof. Terrace building to match grade. Vert. building walls should be max. 15' above grade. Any vertical walls above 15' should be stepped back from adjacent lower walls by a min. distance of 10'. Flat building walls over 1 story in height and over 25' in horiz. dimension discouraged to minimize unarticulated wall mass. City of Torrance 14', 14' measured from the ground at finished grade.

Grading is also prohibited within 100 feet of a recognized ridgeline. No specific limit to amount of import/export, but grading required to be sensitive to natural terrain. City of Beverly Hills Formula used to determine maximum cut and fill for any site (including basements) over a 5-year period, with overall max of 3,000 cubic yards over a 5-year period Not available. City of Pasadena Regulations limit height/width of cut slopes (20 feet tall, including retaining walls, and 20 feet max. width beyond the width of the dwelling), to ensure maximum concealment of cut slopes by a proposed structure. All cut slopes should be contoured to meet abutting slopes, and must undulate in a manner similar to natural topography in the vicinity. Drainage and terracing are also required. Not available. City of San Rafael A minimum of 25% of the lot area + % of average slope of the lot, up to a maximum of 85%, must remain in its "natural state." Natural state is defined as undeveloped and undisturbed, with no construction allowed and no grading, excavating, or filling permitted, unless incidental to planting and landscaping which enhances the natural environment. Not available. Maximum cumulative height of retaining walls on a single slope is 6 feet, but "living wall systems" may be between 15 feet and 30 feet tall. Retaining walls limited to 50 feet long and 6 feet tall. Stepped or terraced retaining walls, Recommend minimizing the visual impact of grading by with planting in between are encouraged. doing most of the cut under the buildings, and avoiding Additional review required for: 1) Retaining wall on a lot with average slope of 15% or more; 2) excessive removal & fill. Preserve slopes over 30% by avoiding grading and clearing. Grading immediately Multiple terracing retaining walls not separated under the house is encouraged, with up to 500 cubic yards by a building or horizontal distance of at least City of Santa allowed beyond the footprint of the house without Planning 10 feet where the combined height of the walls Barbara exceeds 6 feet. Commission review. Extra review required if grading more than 1,000 cubic City of yards of combined cut and fill. Construction on "extreme Rancho Palos slope" (35%+ grade) requires special permit, with a few Verdes exceptions. Not available. Northeast Los Angeles (NELA) Hillsides Work Program Frequently Asked Questions / Key Definitions What is an ICO? ICO? ICO stands for “Interim Control Ordinance.” An ICO is a planning tool that allows a City to temporarily control new development in an area. While the ICO is in effect, planning staff does research and has outreach programs designed to find permanent alternative solutions for the development issues in the ICO area. What is FAR? FAR? FAR stands for “Floor Area Ratio.” FAR is the ratio of the total floor area of all structures on a property to the square footage of the property itself. For example, if a person has a 2,000 square foot lot, and builds a 4,000 square foot house on that lot, the FAR would be 2:1. What are Q/D Conditions/Limitations? Conditions/Limitations? “Q” and “D” conditions and limitations are planning tools that allow the City to hold individual parcels to more specific standards than the general zoning designation. Q conditions are used to make sure that development is consistent with the General Plan and community interests, as well as provide mitigation measures for possible environmental effects. D limitations affect height, FAR, and setback requirements; again, D limitations are a zoning tool used to ensure communitylevel compatibility and compliance with environmental mitigation measures. What is a Specific Plan? Plan? A Specific Plan is a planning tool that allows a city to regulate land use and development on a small, community scale. Specific plans are special zoning regulations that allow a community to retain its character, preserve a sense of place, and give developers incentives to build projects that will fit in with the community. What do up/down slope mean? mean? Up/down slope refers to the slope direction on an individual lot, in reference to the location of the hillside and the street. In the drawing, the house on the right is built on a “down slope” because it is built on the side of the street where the hillside runs down. The house on the left is built on an “up slope” because it is built on the side of the street where the hillside is going up.

Northeast Los Angeles (NELA) Hillsides Work Program What is the Northeast Los Angeles (NELA) Hillsides Work Program? The NELA Hillsides Work Program is the directive that resulted out of the adoption of the Interim Control Ordinance (ICO) by the Los Angeles City Council in December 2006. The purpose of the NELA Hillsides Work Program is to review and assess issues such as the minimization of grading and soil erosion, protection of ridgelines and landforms, protection of plant life and wildlife, appropriate scales of hillside development, and, adequate access for residents and emergency vehicles in the Northeast Los Angeles hillside areas of Mount Olympus, Paradise Hill, Rose Hill, El Sereno, and Monterey Hills. The goals of the NELA Hillsides Work Program are to identify issues and opportunities in the hillside communities, set objectives, and develop land use regulations that promote policies and objectives of the Northeast Los Angeles Community Plan for development in the hillsides that: • are appropriate in scale and minimally disruptive of the natural terrain, vegetation, water courses and wildlife; • ensure that future developments improve the identity and appearance of neighborhoods and communities through scale, height, bulk, setbacks, design, and landscaping parameters; • give consideration for the steepness of the topography and geological stability in any proposal for development; • ensure the availability of adequate infrastructure and access to emergency services; and, • promote the protection of natural resources. Focus Group* Purpose: • The focus groups help identify the issues and opportunities related to hillside development and conservation. • The focus groups explore ways to promote good planning principles by soliciting community input that will be used to develop land use regulations which will promote appropriate development in the Northeast Los Angeles hillsides.

DEPARTMENT Prepared by City of Los Angeles Planning Department • Graphic Services Section • May, 2007 Northeast Los Angeles (NELA) Hillsides Zone Change Frequently Asked Questions Second Public Workshop July 26, 2008 July 2007 Is the City going to build new houses? No, this proposal is not for a particular project or proposed development. This proposal is to change the rules and requirements when property owners decide to build new construction. This will not affect property owners who do not plan on any new construction. Property owners will not have to comply with the proposed regulations if adopted if they do not decide to build new construction. Will this increase density or upzone the hillsides? No, the underlying zone of properties inside the boundaries will not change. The existing zone (R1, RE-20, RE-9, RD1.5, etc.) will stay the same and not change. Additional requirements will be added to the existing zone to change hillside development regulations in this area. These additional requirements will be the form of [Q] conditions and [D] limitations added to the existing zone. (Ex.: [Q]R1-1D, [Q]RE20-1D, [Q]RE9-1D, [Q]R1.5-1D, etc.) Why is there a Two-Phased Approach? A two-phased approach is proposed because it is difficult to require improvements in the public right of way from private entitlement requests. Many of the issues and concerns associated with hillside development spill into the public right of way. The Planning Department and Department of Building & Safety regulate development on private lots, not the public right of way. Having a second, long term phase will allow for more interdepartmental and interjurisdictional coordination to better address the issues in the public right of way that result from hillside development. Why are 28 feet of roadway access being required if my street is not that wide? When parking is allowed on the street, LAMC 57.09.03.D1 requires 28 feet of clear roadway width to provide access to for emergency vehicles. It is common that most hillside projects fronting substandard streets seek variances to reduce the 28 feet of roadway access to 20 feet. Currently, when parking is not allowed on either side of the street, 20 feet of clear roadway width is required fro emergency vehicle access. How Are Retaining Wall Regulations Changing? The maximum total height of all retaining walls added together on a lot cannot be higher than 12 feet. No individual wall can be more than 6 feet in height. Each freestanding retaining wall cannot be longer than 50 feet, nor extend beyond one lot. Walls shall be separated by a minimum horizontal distance equal to the height of the highest wall. Freestanding garden walls 36” in height or less will not be considered retaining walls under this proposal. How Are Ridgelines Being Protected? Structures within 50 vertical feet of identified ridgelines, as shown on attached map marked ‘Northeast LA Ridgelines’, are limited to one story or 12 feet in height. The 50 vertical feet must be labeled on all plans accordingly. How Is Lot Coverage Being Regulated? Lot coverage will stay consistent with the current Citywide Hillside Regulation of 40% lot coverage for R-1 zoned lots. A New FAR (Buildable Area) Calculation with A Sliding Scale Approach Is Proposed: Using three factors used to calculate FAR: • Zone • Lot size • Slope of Lot (Slope Intervals: 0-15%, 15-30%, 30-45%, 45+%) How Do I Calculate FAR (Buildable Area) for My Lot? Plan View: • • • • • 5,000 sq. ft lot 50% is in 0-15% Slope Interval 25% is in 15-30% Slope Interval 25% is in 30-45% Slope Interval 0% is in 45+% Slope Interval Calculation: 0-15 % Slope Interval Section: .5 x(50% of 5,000)=1,250 sf 15-30% Slope Interval: .4 x(25% of 5,000) = 500 sf 30-45% Slope Interval: .25x(25% of 5,000)= 312.5 sf 45%+ Slope Interval: .025 x (0% of 5,000)= 0 sf 1,250 + 500 + 312.5 + 0 = 2,065.2 + 400 sf garage = 2,462.5 square feet Why was the minimum FAR determined at 1,100 square feet + 400 square feet for a garage? Approximately 65% of the lots in the expanded areas consist of properties built with structures ranging between 860 sq. ft. and 1,000 sq. ft. The 1,100 sq. ft minimum seemed to be in keeping with the existing neighborhood character and scale. Due to the lack of infrastructure, a fair balance seems to be that a 2-car garage be exempt from counting towards the FAR/buildable area. Why Hasn’t the Draft Changed and Included Our Comments? Legally the draft language proposed cannot be changed before the staff report. (It also becomes difficult to track who has which version of the draft language.) The staff report will include all comments submitted for this proposal and respond to the comments. Changes to the Draft Ordinance will also be included in the staff report. Where Can I Get A Copy of the Staff Report? If you have signed in legibly on the sign in sheets, a copy of the staff report will be mailed to you. Where Can I Submit My Comments? Comments can be submitted in writing today on a Comment Form. Comments can also be sent in by mail, fax, or email. The Comment Period ends on 8/13/08.

El plan de procedimiento para los laderos de los cerros del noreste de Los Angeles es un directivo cual resultó de la adopción de la ordenanza de control ínterin (ICO) por el Consejal de La Ciudad de Los Angeles en deciembre del 2006. El propósito del plan de procedimiento para los laderos de los cerros del noreste de Los Angeles es para revisar e identificar problemas como la reducción de graduación y erosión de los laderos de los cerros durante construción, protección de los cantos de los cerros, protección del fauno y los árboles en peligro de extincción, escala apropiado para desarrollo en los laderos de los cerros, y acceso adecuado para residentes y vehiculos de emergencia el las areas de los laderos de cerros en el noreste de Los Angeles de Mount Olympus, Paradise Hills, Rose Hill, El Sereno, y Monterey Hills. Las metas del plan de procedimiento para los laderos de los cerros del noreste de Los Angeles quieren identificar problemas y oportunidades en las comunidades cuales estan en los laderos de los cerros, hacer objetivos, crear regulaciones para el desarrollo que promueven polisas y objetivos del plan comunitario del noreste de Los Angeles que: • Son apropiado en escala y disruptan mínimamente el terreno, vegetación natural, caidas de la lluvia e agua, y el fauna; • Aseguran que el desarrollo que venga mejora la identificación y aparencia de las vecindades y comunidades através de escala, altura, bulto, límites fronteros y laderos, diseño, y parámetros de jardines; • Dan consideración para la altura y escarpado de los cerros y estabilidad geológica en proyectos propuestos; • Aseguran la disponibilidad de infrastructura adecuada y acceso a servicios de emergencia; y, • Promueven la protección de recursos naturales. Proposito del Grupo de Enfoque*: Los grupos de enfoque ayudan identificar los problemas e oportunidades con respeto al desarrollo de los laderos de los cerros y conservación. Los grupos de enfoque exploran maneras para promover principios de planificación buenas através de solicitar opiniones de la comunidad cuales se usarán para crear las regulaciones para el desarrollo que promueven desarrollo apropiado en los laderos de los cerros del noreste de Los Angeles Para más información, favor de contactar: Gabriela Juárez City Planning Department 200 N.

Prepared by City of Los Angeles Planning Department • Graphic Services Section • May, 2007 Cerros de Los Angeles del Noreste (NELA) Cambio de ZonificaciÓn Pregúntas Frecuentes Segundo Taller Comunitario 26 de julio, 2008 July 2007 ¿Va construir nuevas casas la Cuidad? No, el propuesto no es para un proyecto en particular ni ningún proyecto de desarrollo. El propuesto es para cambiar las regulaciones cuales aplican cuando propietarios deciden que quieren construir nueva construcción. Esto no afectará los propietarios cuales no tienen pensado construir nueva construcción. Propietarios no tendrán que compadecer con las regulaciones propuestas si son adoptadas si los propietarios no deciden construir nueva construcción. ¿Va a subir la densidad de desarrollo o cambiar la zona para más densidad en los cerros? No, la zonificación existente de las propiedades adentro de los límites no cambiaran. La zonificación existente (R1, RE-20, RE-9, RD1.5, etc.) se preservará y no cambiará. Requisitos adicionales se agregarán a la zonificación existente para cambiar las regulaciones para construir en los cerros de ésta área. Estos requisitos adicionales serán en la forma de condiciones [Q] y limitaciones [D] cuales se agregarán a la zona existente. (Ej.: [Q]R1-1D, [Q]RE20-1D, [Q]RE9-1D, [Q]R1.5-1D, etc.) ¿Por qué se propone una solución de dos pasos? Se propone una solución de dos pasos porque es difícil requerir los mejoramientos el la vía pública como parte de aplicaciones para derechos privados. Muchas de las preocupaciones asociados con el desarrollo en los cerros caen dentro de la vía pública. El Departamento de Planificación y el Departamento de ‘Building & Safety’ regulan desarrollo en los lotes privados, no en la vía pública. Un segundo paso de más largo plazo déja que podrámos tener más coordinación de varios departamentos y a través de más jurisdicciones para poder solucionar las preocupaciones cuales caen en la vía pública que resultan del desarrollo en los cerros. ¿Por qué se ésta requiriendo 28 pies de anchura para la calle si mi calle no esta tan ancha? Cuando es permitido estacionarse en la calle, sección LAMC 57.09.03.D1 requiere 28 pies de anchura para la calle para proveer acceso para vehículos de emergencia. Es común que la mayor cantidad de los proyectos en los cerros cuales enfrentan calles más estrechas que el standard archivan una varianza para reducir los 28 pies de anchura de la calle a 20 pies. Cuando no esta permitido estacionarse en la calle, el requisito es tener 20 pies de anchura de la calle para proveer acceso para vehículos de emergencia. ¿Cuáles son las regulaciones propuestas para las paredes retendientes? La altura máxima son 12 pies en total de todas las paredes retendientes sumadas juntas en un lote. Ninguna pared individual puede medir más de 6 pies de altura. Cada pared retendiete sola no puede medir más de 50 pies, ni extender más sobre de un lote. Las paredes serán separadas por una distancia horizontal mínima la distancia igual a la altura de la pared más alta. Paredes de ajardinamiento que mide 36” en altura o menos no serán consideradas paredes retendientes abajo de éste propósito. ¿Qué tipo de protección estan dando a las cuestas? Estructuras dentro de 50 pies verticales de las cuestas identificados en el mapa, marcado ‘Northeast LA Ridgelines’, estan limitados a 12 pies de altura o un piso. Los 50 pies verticales deben estar marcados en todos los planos archivados. ¿Cómo se está regulando la cubertura del lote? La cubertura de los lotes se quedará consistente con las regulaciones existentes abajo la ordenanza de los cerros de la Cuidad de 40% cubertura para lotes con la zona ‘R-1’. Se propone una nueva calculación para la máximos pies cuadrados (FAR) con una escala cual desliza: Usando tres factores para calcular FAR: • Zona • Tamaño de lote • Cuesta del lote (Intervalos de cuesta: 0-15%, 15-30%, 30-45%, 45+%) ¿Cómo cálculo los máximos pies cuadrados (FAR) para mi lote? Calculación: Vista de Arriba: • • • • • 5,000 pi. cu lote 50% esta dentro 0-15% Intervalo 25% esta dentro 15-30% Intervalo 25% esta dentro 30-45% Intervalo 0% esta dentro 45+% Intervalo 0-15 % Intervalo de cuesta: .5 x(50% de 5,000)=1,250 pi. cu. 15-30% Intervalo de cuesta: .4 x(25% de 5,000) = 500 pi. cu. 30-45% Intervalo de cuesta: .25x(25% de 5,000)= 312.5 pi. cu. 45%+ Intervalo de cuesta: .025 x (0% de 5,000)= 0 pi. cu. 1,250 + 500 + 312.5 + 0 = 2,065.2 + 400 pi. cu. garage = 2,462.5 pies cuadrados ¿Porque se ha determinado un mínimo de máximos pies cuadrados (FAR) en 1,100 pies cuadrados + 400 pies cuadrados para un garaje? Aproximadamente 65% de los lotes en los límites consisten de propiedades con construidas con estructuras que miden entre 860 pi. cu. y 1,000 pi. cu. El mínimo de 1,100 pi. cu. parece guardar el carácter y escala de la vecindad existente. Por la razón que hay muy poca infraestructura construida, un balance justo parece ser que un garaje de 2 vehículos sea exento de contar hacia la calculación para máximos pies cuadrados (FAR). ¿Porque no ha cambiado el propósito para incluir los comentarios que hechos hasta la fecha? El propósito no puede cambiar antes del reporte presentado a la Comisión de Planificación. (También es difícil saber cual versión es cual si hay varias versiones.) El reporte presentado a la Comisión de Planificación va incluir todos los comentarios que se han recibido para éste propósito y responderá a los comentarios. Cambios recomendados a la ordenanza propuesta también serán parte del reporte. ¿Dónde puedo obtener una copia del reporte? Si ha escrito claramente en el registro en la entrada, se le enviará una copia del reporte. ¿Dónde puedo presentar mis comentarios? Puede dar sus comentarios escritos hoy en el Formulario Para Comentarios. También se pueden mandar por correo, fax o correo electrónico. Comentarios se aceptan hasta el 8/13/08.

Spring St., Rm 667 Los Angeles, CA 90012 (213) 978-1222 [email protected] Northeast Los Angeles (NELA) Hillsides Zone Change Frequently Asked Questions Second Public Workshop July 26, 2008 July 2007 洛杉磯市城市規劃局 洛杉磯東北(NELA)山坡區變更常見問題解答 2008 年 7 月 26 日第二次民衆研討會 洛市要建新的房屋嗎? 不是。本提案不是爲了特定項目或者提議的開發案。本提案是改變物業業主決定建造新的建築 物時的條例和規定。這對不打算建造新建築物的物業業主沒有影響。如果物業業主決定不建造新的 建築物,則不需要遵守提議的條例。 這會增加山坡區的密度或使之區劃升級嗎? 不會。分界綫内物業的區劃不會改變。現有分區 (R1, RE-20, RE-9, RD1.5, 等) 維持不變。對現 有分區添加額外規定,即改變本地區的山坡開發條例。這些額外的規定就是對現有分區加上 [Q] 條 件和 [D] 限制。(例如,[Q]R1-1D, [Q]RE20-1D, [Q]RE9-1D, [Q]R1.5-1D, 等等) 爲何採用兩個階段的做法? 提出兩個階段的提議,是因爲從私人權利要求角度對民衆通行權提出進行改進的要求很困難。 山坡開發相關的許多問題和擔心都涉及民衆通行權。規劃局、建築與安全局管理私人地塊的開發, 但不管理民衆通行權。設立第二個較長時間的階段,可以讓不同部門和管轄機構進行協調,更好地 解決山坡開發中產生的民衆通行權問題。 我的街道沒有那麽寬,爲何要求 28 英尺的行車道? 在允許街道停車的情況下,洛杉磯市政法典(LAMC) 第 57.09.03.D1 條規定街道路面為 28 英尺 寬,以便緊急車輛出入。大多數山坡項目全面低於標準的街道試圖把 28 英尺出入路面減少至 20 英 尺,這種現象很常見。目前,街道兩邊不允許停車的街道,要求路面寬度為 20 英尺,以便緊急車 輛出入。 擋土墻的條例有哪些變更? 一個地塊上的所有擋土墻的高檔加起來最多不得超過 12 英尺高。單獨一面墻不得超過 6 英尺 高。單獨一面擋土墻的長度不得超過 50 英尺,亦不得超出一個地塊。36 英寸高或者以下的獨立花 園墻不屬於本提案中的擋土墻。 如何保護山脊綫? 指定山脊綫 50 垂直英尺以内的建築物限於一層或者 12 英尺的高度,如所附地圖中標示的“洛 杉磯東北山脊綫”所示。該 50 垂直英尺必須在所有規劃圖中標出。 地塊覆蓋是如何管理的? 地塊覆蓋仍然遵循現行的全市山坡條例,即 R-1 區地塊的地塊覆蓋為 40%。 提議採取一項新的 FAR (可建造地區) 計算方法,使用滑動比例的做法: 在 FAR 的計算中使用三個因素: • 分區 • 地塊規模 • 地塊坡度 (坡度分爲: 0-15%, 15-30%, 30-45%, 45+%) 如何計算自己地塊的 FAR (可建造地區) for My Lot? 平面圖: • • • • • 5,000 平方英尺地 塊 50% 屬於 0-15% 坡度 25%屬於 15-30% 坡度 25%屬於 30-45% 坡度 0%屬於 45+%坡度 計算: 0-15 % 坡度部分: .5 x(5,000 的 50%)=1,250 平方英尺 15-30%坡度部分: .4 x(5,000 的 25%) = 500 平方英尺 30-45%坡度部分: .25x(5,000 的 25%)= 312.5 平方英尺 45%+坡度部分: .025 x (5,000 的 0%)= 0 平方英尺 1,250 + 500 + 312.5 + 0 = 2,065.2 + 400 平方英尺車庫 = 2,462.5 平方英尺 爲何把最小 FAR 定為 1,100 平方英尺 + 400 平方英尺車庫? 擴展區域中大約有 65%的地塊中的房屋的建築面積在 860 平方英尺到 1,000 平方英尺之間。 1,100 英尺與現有街坊特色和規模相稱。由於缺乏基礎設施,折中做法就是 2 車位車庫不計入 FAR/ 可建造地區。 爲何草案沒有變更並且納入我們的意見? 從法律角度講,提議的草案文本在發表工作人員報告之前不能變更。(要分辨誰掌握了草案的哪 個文本也很困難。) 工作人員報告將包括本提案所收到的全部意見以及對意見的回復。工作人員報 告中還包括對菜案法令的變更。 可以到哪裡索取工作人員報告? 如果您在簽到表中工整簽署您的姓名,您會收到工作人員報告郵件。 我可以向誰提交意見? 今天可以填寫意見表來提交意見。意見也可以通過郵寄、傳真或電子郵件發出。發表意見的截 止日期是 8/13/08。 有關詳情,請聯絡規劃工作人員: Gabriela Juárez 洛市規劃局 City Planning Department 200 N. Spring St., Rm 667 Los Angeles, CA 90012 (213) 978-1222 [email protected] 로스앤젤레스 북동쪽(NELA) 산지 조닝 변경 자주 제시되는 질문 제 2차 대중 워크샵 2008년 7월 26일 July 2007 로스앤젤레스 시가 새로운 주택을 건설할 계획을 갖고 있습니까? 아닙니다. 본 제안사항은 어떤 특정한 프로젝트나 제안된 개발을 위해서 만들어 진 것이 아닙니다. 본 제안사항은 부동산 소유주가 새로운 건설을 하기로 결정할 때 적용되는 규정 및 요구사항을 변경하도록 제안하는 것입니다. 새로운 건설을 계획하지 않는 부동산 소유주들은 이에 영향을 받지 않을 것입니다. 새로운 건설을 하지 않기로 결정하였다면 본 제안사항이 체택되더라도 본 규정의 조항을 준수하지 않아도 됩니다. 본 제안사항이 산지의 밀도를 증가시키거나 건축기준을 변경하나요? 아닙니다. 경계선 내에 있는 부동산의 근본적인 조닝은 바뀌지 않습니다. 현존하는 조닝(R1, RE-20, RE-9, RD1.5, 등) 은 계속 유지되며 변경되지 않습니다. 지역의 산지 개발 규율을 변경하기 위해 현존하는 조닝에 부가적 요구사항이 추가될 것입니다. 이러한 부가적 요구사항은 현존하는 조닝에 [Q] 조건 및 [D] 제한사항 형식으로 추가될 것입니다. (예: [Q]R1-1D, [Q]RE20-1D, [Q]RE9-1D, [Q]R1.5-1D, 등.) 왜 2 단계로 나누는 방법을 사용합니까? 2 단계로 나누는 방법을 제안한 이유는 개인 권리 요구사항 가운데 공공통행지역의 향상을 요구하는 것이 어렵기 때문입니다. 산지 개발과 관련된 많은 안건과 문제들이 공공통행지역과 관련되어 있습니다. 시 기획국 및 건설 안전국은 공공 통행지역이 아닌 개인 부지의 개발을 규제합니다. 제 2 차 장기적 단계를 갖게됨으로 산지 개발로 인한 공공통행지역 문제들을 더욱 확실히 대응하기 위한 부서간 그리고 서로 다른 분할구역간의 협조를 허락합니다. 제 길이 그렇게 넓지 않은데도 불구하고 왜 28 피트의 통행로를 요구하는 건가요? 길에 주차를 허용할 경우, 로스앤젤레스 시 법(LAMC) 57.09.03.D1 은 응급차량의 진입을 위해 길의 넓이가 28 피트이도록 요구합니다. 기준 이하의 길을 정면에 두고있는 대부분의 산지 프로젝트는 28 피트의 진입로 넓이를 20 피트로 감소하기 위한 변동신청을 합니다. 현재 길 양쪽에 주차가 허용되지 않는 다면 응급차량의 진입을 위한 진입로의 20 피트 넓이가 요구됩니다. 옹벽에 관한 규정은 어떻게 바뀌나요? 부지에 합쳐진 모든 옹벽의 총 높이는 최고 12 피트 이상이 될 수 없습니다. 각각 다른 옹벽의 높이는 6 피트 이상이 될 수 없습니다. 각 버팀없이 서있는(freestanding) 옹벽은 한 부지 이상을 뻗어나갈 수 없으며 길이가 50 피트 이상일 수 없습니다. 벽들은 가장 높의 벽과 동동한 최소 수평거리에 의해 분리되어야만 합니다. 36 인치 이하의 높이인 버팀없이 서있는 정원벽은 본 제안사항에서는 옹벽으로 간주되지 않습니다. 능선은 어떻게 보호되나요? 첨부된 지도에 ‘로스앤젤레스 북동쪽 능선’ 이라고 표시된 것과 같이 능선에 50 수직피트 내에 위치한 건물은 1 층건물로 제한되거나 또는 12 피트 높이의 건물이어야 합니다. 50 수직 피트는 모든 설계도에 알맞게 표시되어야만 합니다. 부지 포함범위는 어떻게 규제되나요? 부지 포함범위는 현 시 전역 산지 규정인 R-1 조닝의 40% 부지 포함범위와 일치할 것입니다. 신축법으로 새로운 FAR (건축할 수 있는 지역)을 계산 하도록 제안되었습니다: 3 가지 요소를 사용하여 FAR 계산: • 조닝 • 부지 규모 • 부지의 경사 (경사 간격: 0-15%, 15-30%, 30-45%, 45+%) 제 부지의 FAR (건축할 수 있는 지역) 은 어떻게 계산하나요? 설계도: 계산: 0-15 % 경사 간격 섹션: .5 x(50% of 5,000)=1,250 제곱피트 • 5,000 제곱피트 부지 15-30% 경사 간격: .4 x(25% of 5,000) = 500 제곱피트 • 50% 가 0-15% 경사 간격 30-45% 경사 간격: .25x(25% of 5,000)= 312.5 제곱피트 • 25% 가 15-30%경사 간격 45%+ 경사 간격: .025 x (0% of 5,000)= 0 제곱피트 • 25% 가 30-45%경사 간격 1,250 + 500 + 312.5 + 0 = 2,065.2 + 400 제곱피트 차고 = 2,462.5 제곱피트 • 0% 가 45+%경사 간격 차고에 관한 FAR 최소 1,100 제곱피트 + 400 제곱피트는 왜 결정된 것인가요? 확장된 지역의 약 65% 는 860 제곱피트 에서 1,000 제곱피트 범위의 구조를 가진 건물로 구성됩니다. 최소 1,100 제곱피트가 현존하는 지역 특성 및 규모와 맞는 것 같아 보입니다. 하부조직의 부족으로 인해 차 2 대 공간의 차고는 FAR/건축 가능한 지역으로의 계산에 제외되도록 하는 것이 공평한 균형이 될 것 같습니다. 왜 초안이 변경되거나 의견사항을 포함하지 않았나요? 법적으로 직원 보고서 전에 제안된 초안 내용이 바뀔 수 없습니다.

Chương Trình Công Tác Vùng Sườn Đồi NELA là hướng dẫn tuân theo Sắc Lệnh Kiểm Soát Tạm Thời (Interim Control Ordinance/ICO) của Hội Đồng Thành Phố Los Angeles vào tháng Mười Hai năm 2006. Mục đích của Chương Trình Công Tác Vùng Sườn Đồi NELA là xem xét và đánh giá những vấn đề để hạn chế tối đa sự phân loại và xói mòn đất, bảo vệ đường luống và đất bề mặt, bảo vệ đời sống của cây cối và đời sống hoang dã, phát triển sườn đồi hợp lý, và, tiếp cận đầy đủ cho cư dân và xe cứu cấp của khu vực sườn đồi ở vùng Đông Bắc Los Angeles trên Mount Olympus, Paradise Hill, Rose Hill, El Sereno, và Monterey Hills. Các mục đích của Chương Trình Công Tác Vùng Sườn Đồi NELA là xác định những vấn đề và cơ hội cho các cộng đồng ở vùng sườn đồi, đặt ra các mục đích, và phát triển đất đai sử dụng những quy định để xúc tiến các chính sách và mục đích của Kế Hoạch Cộng Đồng Đông Bắc Los Angeles cho sự phát triển vùng đồi núi: • Thích hợp về quy mô và tránh phá hủy đến mức tối thiểu địa hình tự nhiên, rau quả, dòng chảy của nước và đời sống hoang dã; • Đảm bảo rằng những phát triển trong tương lai sẽ cải thiện đặc tính và phong thái của khu vực lân cận và các cộng đồng thông qua phạm vi, độ cao, tổng thể, chỗ đất trũng, thiết kế, và tham biến trong cảnh quan; • Suy xét độ dốc của địa thế và sự ổn định địa lý trong bất cứ đề nghị phát triển nào; • Đảm bảo sự sẵn có và đầy đủ hạ tầng cơ sở để tiếp cận được với các dịch vụ khẩn cấp; và, • Phát huy bảo vệ các nguồn tài nguyên thiên nhiên. Mục Đích của Nhóm Tập Trung (Focus Group*): • Các nhóm tập trung giúp xác định những vấn đề và cơ hội liên quan đến sự phát triển và bảo tồn vùng sườn đồi. • Nhóm tập trung khảo sát những cách để khuyến khích các nguyên tắc kế hoạch tốt bằng cách thu hút ý kiến đóng góp của cộng đồng dùng để soạn các quy định sử dụng đất đai để xúc tiến phát triển thích hợp cho vùng sườn đồi Đông Bắc Los Angeles.

Spring St., Rm 667 Los Angeles, CA 90012 (213) 978-1222 [email protected] GRADING A standard unit of measurement to measure grading is a cubic yard. For example, the City of Los Angeles requires haul route approval if 1,000 or more cubic yards of soil are being removed from a project site. One cubic yard of earth is shown below as the small box. 1,000 cubic yards is the large cube that easily dwarfs a passenger car. EMERGENCY EMERGENCY ACCESS Hillside streets are of substandard width in a large portion of the area under study. Parked cars or oncoming traffic can easily pose emergency access challenges. LOT CONSOLIDATION 2 contiguous subdivided hillside lots, each approximately 4,000 square feet in area with dimensions 25’ wide by 160’ deep. With standard setbacks, the house is forced to be only 19’ wide at its widest point, creating a challenging space for a habitable room or garage. Same 2 hillside lots, tied together to create a lot of 8,000 square feet in area, with new dimensions of 50’ wide by 160’ deep. This wider lot makes it possible to build a more typically sized home. SAMPLE FLOOR AREA RATIO CALCULATION FOR SUBSTANDARD SIZED LOT Parcels that are substandard in size (“legal nonconforming”) are proposed to be guaranteed a minimum floor area allotment of 1,100 square feet, regardless of the floor area calculation. Below is a 2,000 square foot lot that is zoned R1-1. Here is the same lot with a 1,100 square foot structure: SAMPLE FLOOR AREA RATIO CALCULATION FOR LOT IN RE20RE20-1 ZONE Parcels that are zoned RE20-1 are proposed to receive lower Floor Area Ratio (FAR) values for each slope interval due to the low development intensity that is intended for this zone. Sample calculation for this 5,000 square foot lot in the RE20-1 zone: Slope interval (%) 0-15 15-30 30-45 >45 Total: % of lot area 0% 52% 31% 17% 100% Lot square feet 0 2,610 1534 855 5,000 x FAR 0.35 0.25 0.10 0.010 = Buildable square feet 0 675 177 10 862 1,100* *Since the FAR calculation results in a maximum floor area that is less than the minimum 1,100 square foot allowance, the lot would be permitted to build 1,100 square feet (plus an additional 400 square feet for required parking). SAMPLE FLOOR AREA RATIO CALCULATION FOR LOT IN RD3RD3-1 ZONE Parcels that are zoned for multifamily uses are proposed to receive a higher Floor Area Ratio (FAR) value for each slope interval because they are intended to yield two units or more per lot. Sample calculation for this 7,500 square foot lot in the RD3-1 zone: Slope interval (%) 0-15 15-30 30-45 >45 Total: % of lot area 24% 56% 20% 0% 100% Lot square feet 1,800 4,200 1,500 0 7,500 x FAR 0.75 0.50 0.35 0.15 = Buildable square feet 1,350 2,100 525 0 3,975 DRAFT Adequate Infrastructure Issue Existing infrastructure (Public ROW) is insufficient to support new development Existing street network does not allow for adequate street parking Insensitive and inappropriate hillside road construction Proposed Solution(s) Solution(s) Q Conditions • Require plot plan to include the following minimum design features: fire lanes, where required, shall be a minimum of 20’ in width; all structures must be within 300’ of an approved fire hydrant; and entrances to any dwelling unit or guest room shall not be more than 150’ in distance horizontal travel from the edge of the roadway of an improved street or approved fire lane.

DRAFT Neighborhood Character, Identity, and Scale Issues - Tall box-like homes are not reflective of the neighborhood character and scale - Hillside development regulations lack urban design requirements that address aspects such as modulation, architectural definition & landscaping - Height measurement according to the Citywide Hillside Ordinance does not result in desired architectural designs - Current hillside development regulations that addres grading, height, retaining walls, and parking requirements don’t account for up/downslope parcels. - Ridgeline development should preserve neighborhood character by lowering height limits and adjusting lot coverage Figure 2 Proposed Solution(s) • D condition changing the way height is measured in this defined area: The maximum allowable height shall be measured as the vertical distance from the existing grade of the site to an imaginary plane located the allowed number of feet above and parallel to the grade. (See Figure 1 on reverse.) • D condition changing the allowable height: No structure shall exceed a height of 24’ for flat roof tops and 28’ for roofs with more than 25% roof slope as measured with the vertical distance parallel plane and shall not exceed an overall height of 36’, as measured from lowest elevation on the site where the structure touches the grade, to the highest point of the roof. (See Figures 2 and 3 on reverse.) • In addition to the height limitations contained in LAMC Section 12.21 A17(c), no building or structure shall exceed 28 feet in height from adjacent finished grade, measured as the vertical distance from the adjacent finished grade of the site to an imaginary plane located above and parallel to the finished grade; except that when the roof of the uppermost story of a building or structure or portion of the building or structure has a slope of less than 25 percent, the maximum height shall be 24 feet above adjacent finished grade. • Q condition to require second story setbacks or terraced structures and other design articulations be used to ensure that new development is compatible with existing neighborhood identity, character and scale. • D condition to regulate the height of the lowest floor level such that the vertical distance between the lowest point where the foundation meets the grade and the lowest floor line of the structure shall not exceed 6’ feet. Figure 4 For other Figures, see reverse) New development should have a 200 sq. ft./required space allowance that does not count towards the FAR calculation • D condition to regulate the finished floor elevation directly above an exposed underfloor area shall be limited to 6 feet above finished grade. • Q condition limiting attached decks such that no portion of the walking surface of a deck with visible underpinnings shall exceed a height of 6’ above grade and decks shall be integrated into the architecture of the house, and not appear as an add-on to the primary building mass. (See Figure 4) • Q condition to require building materials match architectural style of new development. • Q condition to require that the architectural design elements of the front and rear building elevations vary from the adjacent/abutting buildings. • Q condition to require design of new structures to meet one of the following standards: (1) The total residential floor area of each story other than the base floor in a multi-story building does not exceed 75 percent of the base floor area (See Figure 5); or (2) The cumulative length of the exterior walls facing the front lot line, equal to a minimum of 25 percent of the building width shall be stepped-back a distance of at least 20 percent of the building depth from a plane parallel to the lot width established at the point of the building closest to the front lot line (See Figure 6). When the front lot line is not straight, a line connecting the points where the side lot lines and the front lot line intersect shall be used. When through-lots have two front yards, the step-back shall be provided along both front lot lines; or (3) The buildings of the project shall consist of 3 or more building elements, each with its own associated roof form. A building element may also be a major horizontal mass, setback, or forward from the face of other masses. An additional square footage of 20% of the entire FAR will be allowed for structures that are in substantial compliance with the requirements for the U.S. Green Building Council’s (USGBC) Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED®) for Homes program at the “Certified” level or higher. • Q condition to exempt 200 sq. ft./required parking space; any covered parking area above that shall be counted towards the total calculation of Floor Area Ratio (FAR). • Q condition to exempt the first 400 square feet of required covered parking area shall be excluded from the total Floor Area calculation. - FAR should be reflective of the neighborhood scale - Regulations need to vary based on lot typology in order to create compatible development in the various neighborhoods of the hillsides • D condition to limit buildable area with new Floor Area Ratio calculations that use slope, lot size and zone as follows: Figure 7 Complicated and long permit processes will deter many of the long-time residents from building and cause a shift in the historic neighborhood identity • Adjust interdepartmental processes to be more efficient & expeditious. (Administrative) • Recommend: New overlay tool for hillside development to address pedestrian linkages more comprehensively. • Recommend: Revise §12.21 17A (e) to remove full street improvement requirement. Pedestrian linkages need to be preserved & given access to in new developments • Recommend: New overlay tool for hillside development to address pedestrian linkages more comprehensively Preserve the mixed-income aspect of the community • Recommend: Non Land use solution for Council Policy/Action.

DRAFT Other Issues Issues (Miscellaneous & Interdepartmental Interdepartmental Taskforce Identified) Issue Proposed Solution(s) Solution(s) Expand boundaries of permanent regulations beyond ICO boundaries • See new map of proposed boundaries based on topography, slope and field verification. Citywide Hillside Ordinance is not clear in its descriptions and definitions of regulations required (i.e. instructions for measuring height, setbacks, etc.) • Q & D conditions proposed here explicitly describe height measurement with definitions to minimize confusion and/or misinterpretation. Better interdepartmental coordination is needed to effectively enforce regulations • • Create permanent interdepartmental hillside taskforce. (Administrative) Recommend: Establishment/Creation of a Hillside Enforcement Unit. Limit granting of variances from the required 20' min. width for access roadways in hillside streets • Recommend: Carefully review and limit circumstances warranting variances and include public input in all variance requests. (DCP). Recommend: Revise §12.21 17A (e) to remove full street improvement requirement. • Temporary Parking Restrictions in Hillsides not well implemented • Recommend: New overlay tool for hillside development to address open space linkages more comprehensively. R2 zoned properties not covered by Citywide Hillside Ordinance • Recommend: Revise Citywide Hillside Ordinance to include R2 zoned lots. Need for ongoing citywide hillside taskforce • • Create permanent interdepartmental hillside taskforce. (Administrative) Recommend: Establishment/Creation of a Hillside Enforcement Unit.
