| 20251118 | Orange County | Laguna Beach | City Council | Item | 20. POLICY CONSIDERATIONS FOR THE CITY’s OUTDOOR DINING AND PARKLET PROGRAM (EXCLUDING THE PROMENADE ON FOREST) Recommendations: 1. Provide policy direction to staff on the following matters to guide development of a longÂterm framework for outdoor dining in Laguna Beach: a. Whether to extend, replace, or allow expiration of the existing Temporary Use Permit based Outdoor Dining and Parklet Program, which is scheduled to expire on January 1, 2026; b. Whether to maintain or lift the current moratorium on new parklet applications pending further policy development; c. Whether to transition toward sidewalkÂbased outdoor dining consistent with AB 413 and the results of the City’s preliminary design study; and d. Whether to revise the existing fee structure to ensure equity and cost recovery for both public and private property uses. 2. Direct staff to return at a future meeting with a work plan outlining the steps, resources, and timeline necessary to develop a permanent outdoor dining program, including required Municipal Code and Local Coastal Program amendments and environmental review. | November 18, 2025 Orange County Laguna Beach City Council Item #20 |
