1. Introduction
Overview
This General Plan Annual Progress Report monitors the City's progress in implementing the West Hollywood General Plan 2035. It is submitted to the Governor's Office of Planning and Research (OPR) in compliance with Government Code Section 65400, which requires that cities submit an annual report on the status of the General Plan to their legislative bodies, OPR, and the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) in April each year.
The West Hollywood General Plan 2035 (General Plan) was adopted in September, 2011. It was the first comprehensive update of the City's original 1988 General Plan document. The comprehensive General Plan update allowed the City and community to simultaneously consider the critical relationships between a wide range of policy areas. The General Plan is a forward-thinking document that recognizes and builds upon existing challenges and opportunities, reflects the diverse visions of the community, and provides for future generations.
The City of West Hollywood chose to prepare a Climate Action Plan (CAP) as a companion document to the General Plan. The CAP was adopted along with the General Plan in 2011. The Climate Action Plan emphasizes the City's commitment to leadership in environmental sustainability and presents a toolkit of measures by which the entire community can reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and thus lessen impacts to global climate change. The CAP outlines its own monitoring program including communitywide greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions inventories to be conducted every five years to gauge the City's performance and progress in reaching its GHG emissions reduction goals. However, because a number of implementation measures from the General Plan overlap with those of the CAP, a summary of CAP implementation progress is included in this report for tracking purposes (Appendix B).
The policy direction in the General Plan and CAP emphasized integration forwardthinking, sustainable, land use and mobility strategies to address a range of issues including traffic, development, neighborhood character, housing, and quality of life, among others. Because of the importance of land use, mobility, and sustainability initiatives to the implementation of the General Plan and CAP, section three of this Report provides additional detail about accomplishments in each of these areas over the past year.
The General Plan and CAP Implementation Status Tables, included as Appendix A and B, provide status updates on each of the 176 General Plan and Climate Action Plan implementation items that are pending, underway, complete, or are ongoing programs of the City as of March, 2013.
Page 1-1
Awards The General Plan was awarded the American Planning Association Los Angeles Chapter Comprehensive Plan Award. The Climate Action Plan received the American Planning Association Los Angeles Chapter Innovation in Green Community Planning Award, the Association of Envirnnmental Professionals Outstanding Climate Change Document Award, and the Southern California Association of Governments' 2011 Compass Blueprint Recognition Award for Visionary Planning for Sustainability.
Amendments No amendments to the General Plan have been processed since the West Hollywood General Plan 2035 was adopted in September, 2011.
State Requirements
OPR Guidelines The General Plan fully complies with the Governor's Office of Planning and Research (OPR) guidelines for General Plan documents. The General Plan contains each of the seven required elements under Government Code Section 65302, as follows:
• A Land Use Element, contained in the Land Use and Urban Design Chapter, describing the general distribution and location of land uses, standards of population density and building intensity;
• A Circulation Element, contained in the Mobility Chapter, describing the general location and extent of existing and proposed thoroughfares and transportation routes, correlated with the land use element, and complying with AB 1358, the California Complete Streets Act;
• A Housing Element;
• A Conservation Element, contained in the Infrastructure, Resources, and
• Conservation Chapter, for the conservation, development, and utilization of natural resources;
• An Open Space Element, contained in the Parks and Recreation Chapter;
• A Noise Element, contained in the Safety and Noise Chapter, analyzing current and projected noise levels from vehicles and stationary sources, providing noise contour maps for these sources, and discussing possible solutions to address noise problems; and
• A Safety Element, contained in the Safety and Noise Chapter, for the protection of the community from seismic hazards, flooding, and other risks.
The General Plan also addresses several optional topics that are of particular importance to the West Hollywood community, as allowed by Government Code section 65303, including the Governance, Historic Preservation, Economic Development, Human Services, and Parks and Recreation Chapters.

Housing Element Annual Report
Government Code Section 65400 establishes the requirement that each city prepare an
annual report on the status of the housing element of its general plan and progress in its
implementation, using forms and definitions adopted by the Department of Housing and
Community Development. The City of West Hollywood has already submitted its annual
housing element progress report for the calendar year 2012 (Appendix C). The City is currently in the process of preparing the 2013-2021 Housing Element.
Implementation Status
The General Plan has a 25-year timeframe, and implementation of its goals and policies
during this period is a collective effort by City staff in every Department and Division. In
the first 18 months since adoption of the General Plan, a great deal of progress has been
made on its numerous implementation actions. Out of a total of 173 implementation items in the General Plan, 65% (112) are in the process of being implemented. Similarly,
out of a total of 104 implementation items in the CAP, 57% (104) are in the process of being implemented.

Between the two documents, 12 items have been completed. These include: Adopting
the Climate Action Plan (concurrently with the General Plan 2035, September, 2011);
adopting the Single-Use Plastic Bag Ban Ordinance (August, 2012}; updating the
Municipal Code to encourage mixed-use development in targeted areas along most commercial corridors; installing credit-card readers at parking meters and pay stations
Page 1-3
citywide (July, 2012); addressing recycling bins in public spaces; establishing a landscape demonstration site; incorporating certain noise policies in the Municipal Code; updating Residential Parkway Guidelines; and adding a section to this report identifying how the City's actions uphold the community's core values, as defined by the General Plan Guiding Principles.
Following adoption of the General Plan, a standard section was added to all City Council staff reports to identify the General Plan goal(s) addressed by each, to ensure that all City projects and programs help to implement the vision of the General Plan.
While a great deal of progress has been made in implementing the General Plan and CAP, it is also important to acknowledge those items that are not part of current work plans. Some of these were planned to be medium- long-term projects, and thus are not intended to move forward for several more years, such as conducting a needs assessment and projection for hotel and hospitality uses, or exploring new parking programs including establishing parking maximums near transit nodes and conducting a pilot program to study unbundling residential parking in mixed-use projects.
Many of the programs not currently underway, regardless of projected implementation timeline, fall under the broad category of sustainability, and are not able to be implemented at this time largely due to a lack of staff capacity. Anticipating this challenge, the General Plan and CAP included direction to "pursue additional staffing, staff expertise, and/or staff coordination on environmental sustainability" in the short term. Sustainability initiatives not presently planned for implementation include: creation of a non-toxics purchasing policy for the City, development of alternative energy financing programs, outreach and technical assistance to promote solar or energy and water reduction programs, and development of a point-of-sale residential and commercial energy conversion ordinance, among others.
Guiding Principles Through the public involvement process during the General Plan update, a series often Guiding Principles were developed to state the broad direction and vision of the City and serve as the foundation for the goals and policies in the General Plan. Many of these relate to previous vision statements developed for City documents and processes including the Vision 2020 Strategic Plan (2003). All efforts to implement the General Plan are necessarily related to these Guiding Principles, and serve as specific activities that the City carries out in implementing the community's vision. The Guiding Principles are listed below, along with a sampling of those General Plan Implementation Actions that have helped to realize each Principle over the past year:

Page 1-7
2. Key Implementation Actions
The policy framework for the General Plan and Climate Action plan center on three main interconnected issues: mobility, land use, and sustainability. The following pages summarize the policy direction and highlight key implementation actions in each of these three categories.
Page 2-1
Mobility Initiatives
General Plan and Climate Action Plan Policy Direction The General Plan and Climate Action Plan emphasize linking land use and mobility decisions. The City's mobility strategy, as detailed in the General Plan, is to create a balanced and multi-modal transportation system that meets the needs of the community, and to improve the quality of life within West Hollywood while also actively participating in regional strategies to address transportation issues. West Hollywood benefits from an inherently walkable environment, and in 2011, was rated the most walkable city in California by Walk Score. Strategically enhancing and dynamically managing the City's multi-modal transportation network, including using creative strategies to manage parking as a limited resource, is critical to improving the City's commercial districts, residential neighborhoods, and diverse employment uses.
Status The Long Range and Mobility Planning Division and Public Works Department are responsible for implementation of many of the mobility policies in the General Plan and Climate Action Plan. In the 18 months since the General Plan was adopted, several key projects and studies have been initiated, including:
• The Avenues Streetscape Master Plan (anticipated completion Spring 2013) has been drafted in partnership with a stakeholder Working Group. The document will guide streetscape improvement projects in the Avenues district, and brings together numerous goals and policies in the General Plan. The planned improvements will widen sidewalks, provide new pedestrian amenities and pedestrian-oriented street lights, enhance bicycle facilities, plant new street trees, adjust lane configurations to smooth traffic flow, and expand the City's open space network with new public gathering spaces.
• A comprehensive update to the Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan will begin in April 2013. The update will incorporate General Plan policy guidance,
Page 2-2
recommendations from the City's Bicycle Task Force, community input, and a thorough evaluation of existing pedestrian and bicycle facilities in order to develop a program of recommended improvements.
• Several improvements to the City's bicycle network are being implemented, including installation of 68 new bicycle racks, bike lanes on San Vicente Boulevard, ongoing bicycle safety classes, and installation of sharrow markings on Fountain Avenue.
• Pedestrian safety enhancements include installation of three new flashing beacon signals at mid-block crosswalks.
• Construction of the West Hollywood City Hall Automated Garage and Community Plaza Project, a new 200-car automated public parking garage, is expected to begin in 2013.
• A Parking Credits Program has been implemented in the Avenues district. • Construction of streetscape improvements to La Brea Avenue are scheduled to
start this year. The City is also seeking grant funding to develop a future streetscape improvement project along Fairfax Avenue.
• City staff participate in regional and sub-regional activities (e.g. Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA) and the Westside Council of Governments) to coordinate mobility initiatives including potential future bike-share programs.
Pending projects include:
• Development of a revised and expanded Transportation Demand Management Ordinance to encourage alternative transportation modes as well as multimodal connections is planned to begin in 2014.
Page 2-3
Land Use Initiatives
General Plan and Climate Action Plan Policy Direction The goals and policies of the Land Use and Urban Form Chapter of the General Plan are designed to maintain and enhance the City's residential neighborhoods and to focus any future development along commercial corridors well-served served by transit. The Land Use Chapter works in concert with the Mobility, Historic Preservation, and Economic Development Chapter to preserve the City's unique character, guide responsible infill development, promote mobility and quality of life, and enhance the economy. Maintaining a balance of diverse land uses within the City's compact urban form promotes active neighborhoods and commercial districts, and helps to reduce the need for residents and visitors to move about by car. The Climate Action Plan reinforces the General Plan's emphasis on linking land use and mobility efforts as a means to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and resulting climate change impacts.
Status The Long Range and Mobility Planning and Current and Historic Preservation Planning Divisions are responsible for implementation of the land use policies in the General Plan and Climate Action Plan. In the 18 months since the General Plan was adopted, several key projects and studies have been initiated, including:
• Updates to the Zoning Ordinance and Zoning Map, including implementation of new commercial land use designations, eliminating mixed-use development incentives from certain parcels on Santa Monica Boulevard, eliminating the existing density bonus for exemplary green buildings in residential zones, eliminating the public parking and entertainment production facilities bonuses, and prohibiting new residential uses in certain commercial nodes, as well as Zone Text Amendments to reasonably accommodate persons with disabilities; address the parking interchangeability for gallery and retail uses; and eliminate the proliferation of banks on Sunset Boulevard.
Page 2-4
• Following the Avenues Streetscape Master Plan, a planning study of Melrose Avenue will evaluate existing development incentives and seek to create a unified design and land use vision for the area.
• A study of offsite advertising on Sunset Boulevard is under way, and will address potential benefits and impacts and evaluation of creative signage proposals.
Pending projects include:
• Further updates to the Zoning Ordinance and Zoning Map to implement two new residential zones, address the maintenance and reconstruction of nonconforming buildings, evaluate development incentives, and update the Green Building Ordinance.
• A Request for Proposals to seek a consultant to assist with review and development of incentives for maintenance and reuse of historic buildings will be released in spring 2013.
• A comprehensive update to the Sunset Specific Plan is planned to begin in Fiscal Year 2014.
• A study to update the City's California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) thresholds of significance to address topics such as climate change, multi-modal transportation, parks and recreation, and other topics, is scheduled to begin in Fiscal Year 2014.
Page 2-5
Climate Change Initiatives
General Plan and Climate Action Plan Policy Direction Environmental sustainability is one of the Guiding Principles of the General Plan, and is reflected in the policies of each Chapter. A special icon is used throughout the General Plan to highlight the numerous policies that most directly support sustainability goals. The Climate Action Plan lays out a toolbox of actions the entire West Hollywood community can take to reduce contributions to global climate change by reducing GHG emissions. The City Council established aggressive targets for the CAP, setting a goal of a 20- 25% reduction in emission levels by 2035.
Status While every division's activities help to further the City's sustainability goals, the Community Development Department and Public Works Department are responsible for implementing the majority of climate-change related programs. In addition to the interconnected land use and mobility programs detailed above, since the General Plan was adopted, several key sustainability projects and studies have been initiated, including:
• Approval and implementation of a Single-Use Plastic Bag Ban Ordinance.
• Installation of Electric Vehicle Charging Stations at City parking facilities.
• Energy and water efficiency enhancements to City facilities, including an energy audit of City Hall, installation of LED lighting in buildings and parking garages, installation of water-conserving fixtures, and development of a plan to centralize irrigation controls for greater efficiency.
• Energy and water efficiency outreach efforts to promote the Energy Upgrade California program, water conservation efforts,
• Ongoing funding and maintenance of the Green Building Resource Center.
• Expanding green and open spaces throughout the City, by continuing to implement the West Hollywood Park Master Plan, identifying new open spaces
Page 2-6
in the Avenues Streetscape Master Plan, and creating 7,000 square feet of new open space on the site of the former City Hall surface parking lot, as well as ongoing efforts to identify locations for new pocket parks.
Pending projects include: • An update to the City's Green Building Ordinance is anticipated to begin in Fiscal
Year 2014. • Development of a new Urban Forest Management Plan is scheduled for 2014.
Page 2-7
3. Future Priorities and Upcoming Projects
While the goals, policies, and implementation actions of the General Plan guide the work of every City Department, the ongoing maintenance of the General Plan, and the majority of programs outlined within the document, fall under the purview of the Community Development Department. The Long Range and Mobility Planning Division of the Community Development Department was created, in part, to help implement the coordinated land use and mobility policies ofthe General Plan. In September 2012, the City Council reviewed and established priorities for the Division's ambitious work plan. In addition to ongoing programs, Division priorities for the next two years include {relevant General Plan Implementation Actions are noted in parentheses):
• A comprehensive update to the Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan {M-A.21, MA.26, M-A.27) will begin in April 2013. The update will incorporate General Plan policy guidance, recommendations from the City's Bicycle Task Force, community input, and a thorough evaluation of existing pedestrian and bicycle facilities in order to develop a program of recommended improvements.
• An urban design study of Melrose Avenue {LU-A.11) will evaluate existing development incentives and seek to create a unified design and land use vision for the area.
• A series of land use, economic development, and mobility efforts are underway for the Eastside {LU-A.l, LU-A.7, ED-A.S). These include seeking grant funds for a Fairfax Transit District Streetscape Plan, seeking consultant assistance to develop an economic assessment of commercial districts on the Eastside {lead by the Economic Development Division), and updates to the Zoning Ordinance to implement a new residential land use designation along Fairfax south of Santa Monica Boulevard.
• Develop a policies and procedures manual for Neighborhood Traffic Management and Livability {M-A.10). Conduct assessments and provide recommendations on how to improve neighborhood livability, provide a toolbox of traffic calming measures, and provide information and resources to the public about the Neighborhood Traffic Management process.
• Development of a revised and expanded Transportation Demand Management Ordinance {M-A.33, M-A.34) to encourage alternative transportation modes as well as multimodal connections is planned as part of the FY 2014 workplan.
• Evaluation of intersection improvements will occur as increasing traffic volumes warrant (General Plan Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program 3.14-1).
• Evaluation of potential options for a local or regional bike sharing program (MA.29) is ongoing. Staff regularly participates in a Westside Council of Governments working group to discuss a potential regional approach.
• Evaluation of the potential for temporary pedestrian streets and parklets (LUA.8, CAP program G-1.3(E)) to increase pedestrian and green spaces in the public right of way.
