Home Care In Manhattan Beach, CA

Home Care Manhattan Beach, CA

They say that your golden years are the best years of your life. For most older Americans, that's how it should be - a time to relax, reflect, and live life in a familiar place. After all, senior citizens in the U.S. have worked tirelessly to build a better economy, serve their communities, and raise families.

However, as seniors grow older, completing daily tasks like showering and enjoying activities such as visiting Manhattan Beach Historical Society in Manhattan Beach, CA gets harder without someone by their side. Unfortunately, many older Americans aren't able to rely on their adult children for help. The reality in today's world is that family members do not have the skills or time to dedicate to caring for their parents. That's where Always Best Care Senior Services comes in.

Our in-home care services are for people who prefer to stay at home as they grow older but need ongoing care that family or friends cannot provide. More and more older adults prefer to live far away from long-term, institutionalized facilities and closer to the place where they feel most comfortable - their home. Home care in Manhattan Beach, CA is a safe, effective way to give your loved ones the care they need when they need it the most.

The Always Best Care Difference

Since 1996, Always Best Care has provided non-medical in-home care for seniors to help them maintain a healthy lifestyle as they get older. We are proud to have helped more than 25,000 seniors maintain higher levels of dignity and respect. We focus on providing seniors with the highest level of in-home care available so that they may live happily and independently.

Unlike some senior care companies, we genuinely want to be included in our clients' lives. We believe that personalized care is always the better option over a "one size fits all" approach. To make sure our senior clients receive the best care possible, we pair them with compassionate caregivers who understand their unique needs. That way, they may provide care accordingly without compromising their wellbeing.

The Always Best Care difference lies in life's little moments - where compassionate care and trustworthy experience come together to help seniors live a fruitful, healthy life.

“I feel incredibly lucky to have found Always Best Care South Bay. We used a different agency when my father needed care, so I know firsthand how much agencies can vary. The difference has been night and day. Everyone at Always Best Care makes me feel like my mom and our family truly matter. Our social worker is absolutely wonderful. She is caring, trustworthy, responsive, and always willing to work with me. Most importantly, she makes me feel confident that my mom is being looked after by someone who genuinely cares about her well-being. We have also been so impressed with every caregiver they have sent. Each one has been a great match for my mom, and it's obvious that they put thought and care into pairing caregivers with clients. The caregivers are kind, dependable, and treat my mom with patience and respect. Having a loved one with Alzheimer's can be stressful and emotional, but Always Best Care has given me something priceless: peace of mind. I truly feel that my mother is in the best possible hands. I trust this team completely, and I am so grateful for the compassion, professionalism, and support they provide every day. I highly recommend Always Best Care South Bay to any family looking for quality care for a loved one.”

“My mother is 87 years old and is challenged with Alzheimer's and Dementia. We were referred to Always Best Care Senior Services by her physicians to allow a bit of rest for her fulltime family caregiver as well as give my mother an opportunity to experience a change for her cognitive stimulation. We were so blessed to have an amazing Care Manager, Ashley who coordinated all appointments and visits. Ashely's intake included vital questions about my mother's personality, likes and dislikes to match her with the appropriate caregiver. It worked! My mother was matched with Ms. Chyrlene. She is vibrant, and a burst of energy which was a great match. We are assessing the needs of my mother to either increase hours and or days. The companionship and time spent was thoroughly enjoyable by all.”

“I feel extraordinarily grateful to have connected with this agency, specifically with Dr. Hart, during a time in my life when my husband of 60 years was a victim of that horrible illness-Alzheimers. Dr.Hart provided a support system that helped me identify my strengths, handle my despair, and be present for my husband in a way that nurtured and uplifted him. I have continued to meet with Dr. Hart periodically when I feel the need to clarify my progress without a mate. He is so sensitive and perceptive that I always leave our meetings with a plan. I'm also grateful for the positive and loving environment created by his staff so every visit to the office is nurturing.

I personally worked for ABC, and throughout my years with them I had the pleasure of interacting with the seniors as well as with the amazing caregivers. From the stories of a much more simpler time in the elders life to the reasons from a caregiver wanting to truly care for the seniors.

“My son and I have received family counseling from Dr. Hart for nearly two years. We both suffer from PTSD, among other mental disabilities, and have been seen by a number of therapists over the years. We have found Dr. Hart’s care to be among the most helpful. He is kind, understanding, and patient. Rather than employing long term, traditional psychotherapy or other limited methods exclusively, he uses different approaches to break through a person’s natural resistance. He suggests interpretations of feelings and actions, asks questions that show real insight, and then gives practical and usually appropriate advice that can be accepted or discussed further. He has treated us with respect and even with a non-intrusive, kind of professional affection. We would recommend him to friends and family without hesitation.”

“I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Dr. David Hart for your elder-care needs. Dr. Hart is an incredibly knowledgeable and caring person who helped our family beyond measure to provide the best level of care for our mother who has Alzheimer's Disease. We engaged Dr. Hart to 1) conduct his own periodic assessments of our mother; 2) create a forum for our broader family, including our mom, to communicate and ask questions; 3) provide training and resources; and 4) help our family evaluate and implement an interim and long-term care plan for our mother. DR. HART EXCEEDED OUR EXPECTATIONS ON EVERY LEVEL. Prior to meeting Dr. Hart we had received a lot of conflicting information and our broader family was experiencing a very high level of stress and frustration. Thankfully, after engaging with Dr. Hart for several months, our family became knowledgeable, we communicated well with each other, and we just implemented a long-term care plan that addresses all of our mom's needs and one that she really enjoys. DR. HART IS THE BEST AND HE TRULY CARES ABOUT HIS PATIENTS AND THE FAMILIES HE WORKS WITH. Thank you Dr. Hart for all of you have done for our family. Words cannot express our gratitude.”

“My widowed 80-year-old mother who has Alzheimer's disease has been living alone for 3 years. She has been extremely resistant to having caregivers in her home and my brother and I had all but given up. We have been amazed at the progress we've made since enlisting the help of Dr. David Hart at Always Best Care. In a little over a month, Mom has accepted a caregiver and is considering a move to an assisted living facility. Equally important, the support and assistance we have received in making both large and small decisions has been invaluable and a huge relief. I also highly recommend the Caregiving Essentials class taught by Dr. Hart, which covers everything you need to know in a single 3-1/2 hour "bootcamp" session, including brain science, communication tips, and resources. (GPS shoe insert, who knew?!) The class would benefit anyone who has a friend or family member suffering from dementia.”

“Dr. Hart has been of monumental assistance to our family during a very difficult time. We first learned of Dr. David’s practice when mom was first diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). His support groups for families and patients offered comfort and practical advice from others going through the same experience. He provided essential information—facts about dementia and lifestyle changes to slow the process—based on the latest research findings, sparing us the time and frustration of navigating the web and sorting facts from myths. But most important to me has been the emotional support Dr. David has personally provided to my sister and I, and the trusting relationship he established with mom. His professional empathy and experience with human behavior as well as his expertise in the field of geriatrics and cognition combine to provide an array of servicesthat will truly make the difference toward a successful transition for elders and their families.

What is Non-Medical Senior Care in Manhattan Beach, CA?

lm-check

Home is where the heart is. While that saying can sound a tad cliche, it is especially true for many seniors living in America. When given a choice, older adults most often prefer to grow older at home. An AARP study found that three out of four adults over the age of 50 want to stay in their homes and communities as they age.

lm-check

When you begin to think about why, it makes sense. Home offers a sense of security, comfort, and familiarity.

lm-check

The truth is, as we age, we begin to rely on others for help. When a family is too busy or lives too far away to fulfill this role, in-home senior care is often the best solution. Home care services allow seniors to enjoy personal independence while also receiving trustworthy assistance from a trained caregiver.

lm-check

At Always Best Care, we offer a comprehensive range of home care services to help seniors stay healthy while they get the help they need to remain independent. As your senior loved one gets older, giving them the gift of senior care is one of the best ways to show your love, even if you live far away.

Home Care Manhattan Beach, CA
Respite Care

Respite Care Services

According to AARP, more than 53 million adults living in the U.S. provide care to someone over 50 years old. Unfortunately, these caregivers experience stress, exhaustion, and even depression. Our respite care services help family caregivers address urgent obligations, spend time with their children, and enjoy nearby activities. Perhaps more importantly, respite care gives family members time to recharge and regroup. Taking personal time to de-stress reduces the risk of caregiver burnout. So, if you've always wanted to eat at the local The Strand House or visit Manhattan Beach Pier, don't feel bad. Doing so is great for both you and your loved one.

At the end of the day, our goal is to become a valuable part of your senior's daily routine. That way, we may help give them the highest quality of life possible. We know that staying at home is important for your loved one, and we are here to help make sure that is possible.

If you have been on the fence about non-medical home care, there has never been a better time than now to give your senior the care, assistance, and companionship they deserve.

Aging in Place: The Preferred Choice for Most Seniors

While it's true that some seniors have complicated medical needs that prevent them from staying at home, aging in place is often the best arrangement for seniors and their families. With a trusted caregiver, seniors have the opportunity to live with a sense of dignity and do so as they see fit - something that is unavailable to many older people today.

In-home care makes it possible for millions of seniors to age in place every year. Rather than moving to a strange nursing home, seniors have the chance to stay at home where they feel the happiest and most comfortable.

Here are just a few of the reasons why older men and women prefer to age at home:

How much does a senior's home truly mean to them?

A study published by the American Society on Aging found that more than half of seniors say their home's emotional value means more than how much their home is worth in monetary value. It stands to reason, then, that a senior's home is where they want to grow old.

With the help of elderly care in Manhattan Beach, CA, seniors don't have to age in a sterilized care facility. Instead, they can age gracefully in the place they want to be most: their home. In contrast, seniors who move to a long-term care facility must adapt to new environments, new people, and new systems that the facility implements. At this stage in life, this kind of drastic change can be more harmful than helpful.

Institutional care facilities like nursing homes often put large groups of people together to live in one location. On any given day, dozens of staff members and caregivers run in and out of these facilities. Being around so many new people in a relatively small living environment can be dangerous for a seniors' health and wellbeing. When you consider that thousands of seniors passed away in nursing homes during the COVID-19 pandemic, opting for in-home care is often a safer, healthier choice for seniors.

Aging in place has been shown to improve seniors' quality of life, which helps boost physical health and also helps insulate them from viral and bacterial risks found in elderly living facilities.

For many seniors, the ability to live independently with assistance from a caregiver is a priceless option. With in-home care, seniors experience a higher level of independence and freedom - much more so than in other settings like a nursing home. When a senior has the chance to age in place, they get to live life on their own terms, inside the house that they helped make into a home. More independence means more control over their personal lives, too, which leads to increased levels of fulfillment, happiness, and personal gratification. Over time, these positive feelings can manifest into a healthier, longer life.

More independence, a healthier life, and increased comfort are only a few benefits of aging in place. You have to take into consideration the role of cost and convenience. Simply put, it's usually easier and more affordable to help seniors age in place than it is to move them into an institutional care facility. According to the US Department of Housing and Urban Development, seniors who age in the comfort of their homes can save thousands of dollars per month.

In-home care services from Always Best Care, for instance, are often less expensive than long-term solutions, which can cost upwards of six figures per year. To make matters worse, many residential care facilities are reluctant to accept long-term care insurance and other types of payment assistance.

With Always Best Care's home care services, seniors and their families have a greater level of control over their care plans. In-home care gives seniors the chance to form a bond with a trusted caregiver and also receive unmatched care that is catered to their needs. In long-term care facilities, seniors and their loved ones have much less control over their care plan and have less of a say in who provides their care.

Affordable Care

In-home care is a valuable resource that empowers seniors to age in place on their own terms. However, a big concern for many families and their loved ones is how much in-home care costs. If you're worried that in-home care is too expensive, you may be pleasantly surprised to learn that it is one of the most affordable senior care arrangements available.

Typically, hiring an Always Best Care in-home caregiver for a few hours a week is more affordable than sending your loved one to a long-term care facility. This is true even for seniors with more complex care needs.

At Always Best Care, we will work closely with you and your family to develop a Care Plan that not only meets your care needs, but your budget requirements, too. Once we discover the level of care that you or your senior need, we develop an in-home care plan that you can afford.

In addition to our flexible care options, families should also consider the following resources to help offset potential home care costs:

If your loved one qualifies, Medicaid may help reduce in-home care costs. Review your CA's Medicaid program laws and benefits, and make sure your senior's financial and medical needs meet Medicaid eligibility requirements.
Attendance and aid benefits through military service can cover a portion of the costs associated with in-home care for veterans and their spouses.
Many senior care services like in-home care are included in long-term care insurance options. Research different long-term care solutions to find a plan that provides coverage for senior care.
Home care can be included as part of a senior's private insurance plan. Read over your loved one's insurance policy carefully or speak with their insurance provider to determine if in-home care is covered.
Depending on the life insurance plan, you may be able to apply your policy toward long-term care. You may be able to use long-term-care coverage to help pay for in-home elderly care.

Compassionate Care. Trusted Caregivers.

When you or your senior loved one needs assistance managing daily tasks at home, finding a qualified caregiver can be challenging. It takes a special kind of person to provide reliable care for your senior loved one. However, a caregiver's role involves more than meal preparation and medication reminders. Many seniors rely on their caregivers for companionship, too.

Our companion care services give seniors the chance to socialize in a safe environment and engage in activities at home. These important efforts boost morale and provide much-needed relief from repetitive daily routines. A one-on-one, engaging conversation can sharpen seniors' minds and give them something in which to be excited.

At Always Best Care, we only hire care providers that we would trust to care for our own loved ones. Our senior caregivers in Manhattan Beach, CA understand how important it is to listen and communicate with their seniors. A seemingly small interaction, like a short hug goodbye, can make a major difference in a senior's day. Instead of battling against feelings of isolation, seniors begin to look forward to seeing their caregiver each week.

Understanding the nuances of senior care is just one of the reasons why our care providers are so great at their job.

Unlike some senior care companies, our caregivers must undergo extensive training before they work for Always Best Care. In addition, our caregivers receive ongoing training throughout the year. This training ensures that their standard of care matches up to the high standards we've come to expect. During this training, they will brush up on their communication skills, safety awareness, and symptom spotting. That way, your loved one receives the highest level of non-medical home care from day one.

Assisted Living Referral Services

While it's true that many seniors prefer to age at home, sometimes in-home care isn't the best fit. For those seniors and their families, choosing an assisted living facility makes more sense. Unfortunately, finding the optimal care facility is easier said than done in today's day and age. That's when Always Best Care's assisted living referral services begin to make a lot of sense.

Assisted living is a form of housing intended for seniors who require varying degrees of medical and personal attention. Accommodations may include single rooms, apartments, or shared living arrangements. Assisted living communities are typically designed to resemble a home-like environment and are physically constructed to encourage the independence of residents.


Respite Care Manhattan Beach, CA

At assisted living communities, seniors receive help with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, and eating. They may also benefit from coordination of services with outside healthcare providers, and monitoring of resident activities to ensure their health, safety, and well-being. Caregivers who work at assisted living communities can also provide medication administration and personal care services for older adults.

Other services offered within assisted living communities can include some or all of the following:

  • Housekeeping
  • Laundry
  • Recreational Activities
  • Social Outings
  • Emergency Medical Response
  • Medication Monitoring
  • Family Visitation
  • Personal Care
 Caregivers Manhattan Beach, CA

At Always Best Care, our representatives can match your senior's emotional, physical, and financial needs with viable assisted living communities nearby. Results are based on comparative data, so you can select the best choice for you or your loved one.

Always Best Care works closely with local senior living communities to gain valuable knowledge that we then use to help seniors and their loved ones make informed decisions. This information can include basic care and rent, resident availability, and services provided. Because Always Best Care is compensated by these communities, we provide senior living referral services at no extra cost to you.

Some of the most popular assisted living communities to consider in our area include the following:

  • Second Home
  • Free Senior Care Referrals
  • precisemedicalservices
  • Geriatric Solutions Unlimited
  • Sunrise of Hermosa Beach
  • THRIVE Boutique Senior Living
Home Care Manhattan Beach, CA

For many seniors, moving into a senior living community revolves around how and when they want to make a transition to more involved care. Some seniors are more proactive about transitioning to independent living. Others choose to remain home until their care needs or other requirements are satisfied. Remember - our staff is here to help. Contact our office today to learn more about assisted living communities and how we can find a facility that exceeds your expectations.

MANHATTAN BEACH, CA — An Extreme Heat Warning took effect in Manhattan Beach Wednesday, with temperatures forecast to reach 87 degrees as federal climate officials announced the nation had just experienced its warmest summer on record.

The National Weather Service warning remains in effect until 8 p.m. Thursday for Los Angeles County beaches and several other parts of the region.

Manhattan Beach is expected to cool only to about 74 degrees Wednesday night before temperatures reach 83 degrees Thursday. The high is forecast to fall to about 79 degrees Friday.

The heat warning coincided with the release Wednesday of new data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration showing summer 2026 was the warmest on record for the contiguous United States.

The average temperature from June through August was 74.4 degrees, 3 degrees above the 20th-century average, according to NOAA. That was 0.4 degrees warmer than the previous record of 74 degrees, set in 1936 and matched in 2021. NOAA's records date to 1895.

August alone was also the warmest August on record across the contiguous U.S., averaging 75.6 degrees.

California did not set a record for the entire summer, but the state experienced its warmest August on record. California also recorded its warmest average daytime highs and nighttime lows for any August, NOAA said.

Anyone heading to the beach to escape the heat also faces potentially dangerous ocean conditions.

A Beach Hazards Statement remains in effect along Los Angeles County beaches until 3 a.m. Thursday because of dangerous rip currents and breaking waves caused by elevated surf. Earlier High Surf and Coastal Flood advisories have expired.

The National Weather Service warned that rip currents can pull swimmers and surfers out to sea and that waves could wash people off beaches and rocks or capsize small boats near shore.

Officials advised people to stay out of the water because of hazardous swimming conditions or remain near occupied lifeguard towers. Beachgoers were also advised to stay off rock jetties.

Fonz's Returns To Manhattan Beach For 5 Sold-Out Nights

The longtime Manhattan Beach favorite is bringing back familiar faces and old menu staples and another reunion could be in the works.

MANHATTAN BEACH, CA — For five nights this week, a Manhattan Beach restaurant that became a neighborhood institution over more than two decades will come back to life in the very place where it began, bringing former employees, familiar dishes and plenty of memories back to its longtime downtown home.

Fonz's will return Wednesday through Sunday for a pop-up at Fête Bistro by Slay, 1017 Manhattan Ave., and judging by the response, Manhattan Beach hasn't forgotten it.

Former Fonz's owner Danny Boehle told Patch that reservations for all five nights disappeared within about 24 hours, and he has since been fielding as many as 20 or 30 calls and texts a day from people hoping he can somehow squeeze them in.

"It's booked up solid," Boehle said, adding that the response has been strong enough to make him think the five-night resurrection may not be the last.

"I believe it makes me think that we're going to probably do another one, probably around Christmas time would be my guess," Boehle told Patch, although another pop-up would depend on how this week's event goes and whether the restaurant wants to do it again.

Fonz's opened in 1997, founded by Boehle and Manhattan Beach beach volleyball star Mike Dodd, who won a silver medal at the 1996 Olympics. The restaurant was named for Dodd's late father, whose nickname was Fonz, and a Los Angeles Times review published shortly after it opened described the new Manhattan Avenue restaurant as a cheerful neighborhood spot decorated with photographs of local beach life and volleyball stars.

Over the years, however, Fonz's became much more than somewhere to eat, according to Boehle, who remembers a restaurant where employees stayed for years, regulars returned several times a week and seemingly everybody knew everybody else.

"We were basically like the Cheers of Manhattan Beach," Boehle said. "We were the watering hole."

Boehle bought out Dodd in 2005 and soldhis interest in the restaurant in 2017, the same year the Manhattan Beach City Council recognized Fonz's among the city's longstanding businesses. Fonz's continued operating after Boehle's departure before eventually closing, and Michelin-starred chef Josiah Citrin subsequently took over the space for Costa Manhattan Beach, which opened in late 2019 and closed at the end of November 2020. By December 2021, Pa-Do Dumpling and Noodle Bar had opened at the address.

Even after Boehle sold his interest, he said former customers continued reaching out to ask whether he would ever bring Fonz's back, but rising rents, which were among the reasons he got out of the business in 2017, made the prospect of another permanent restaurant difficult to justify.

A five-night reunion, however, was a different proposition. The idea eventually led to a conversation with chef and restaurateur David Slay, whose Fête Bistro now occupies the old Fonz's address, and when Boehle was asked whether he would come back for five nights, he agreed.

Boehle isn't promising a perfect replica of Fonz's, acknowledging that the kitchen, sauces and staff cannot be exactly as they were years ago, but the idea is to recreate as much as possible of the atmosphere that made the restaurant a gathering place for generations of Manhattan Beach customers.

Former Fonz's chef Luis Sandoval will return Wednesday to help show the kitchen how the dishes should look, Boehle said, while a group of longtime former employees will also return during the pop-up, putting some of the familiar faces back inside the restaurant alongside much of its familiar food.

The menu will draw heavily from the old Fonz's offerings, including meatloaf, chicken, filet, New York steak and swordfish, along with appetizers and desserts, while Fête will also offer some of its own dishes.

The nostalgia will extend beyond the kitchen into the adjoining bar, where old AVP beach volleyball footage featuring Dodd and Tim Hovland will play on screens alongside footage from the 2023 Little League World Series championship won by El Segundo with Boehle as manager. Members of Boehle's extended Lennon family, whose musical roots stretch through Venice and the Westside, are also expected to perform an acoustic set Sunday.

Dinner service begins at 4 p.m. during the pop-up, and while reservations are already gone, Boehle said people without one can still try their luck at the adjoining bar, where seating will be first come, first served and food will also be available. OpenTable lists "Fonz's @ Fête" for Sept. 23 through Sept. 27.

The extraordinary response to the pop-up inevitably raises a larger question about whether Fonz's could ever make a permanent comeback, something Boehle said he has been asked repeatedly in recent days.

For now, he remains wary of returning to an industry he describes as extraordinarily difficult to sustain, particularly given the cost of rent in communities such as Manhattan Beach. Boehle said he has already been asked about taking over the current space on a longer-term basis and declined, but he hasn't completely shut the door on Fonz's returning somewhere under the right circumstances.

"It'd have to be a special offer for me to do it again," Boehle said, explaining that any arrangement would have to substantially reduce his financial exposure. He also said there have been discussions about a possible location in Playa Vista, although nothing has been settled.

For now, his attention is on five nights in Manhattan Beach and giving former customers something resembling the restaurant they remember, even if Boehle is careful not to promise that the experience will be an exact recreation.

The pop-up happens to coincide with Boehle's promotion of his new book, "Second to None: A Coach's Message of Love & Selflessness Propels Tiny El Segundo to a Dramatic Little League World Title," about the El Segundo team's 2023 Little League World Series championship run, but he said the book had nothing to do with the decision to resurrect Fonz's.

Asked how much the book launch played into the pop-up, Boehle's answer was immediate, "Zero."

Copies will be available during the event, he said, but he isn't treating it as a book launch or planning the sort of speaking and signing program he has held at dedicated book events. Instead, this week is about the restaurant, its former employees and the customers who have spent years asking him to bring it back.

"They just want to see us," Boehle said. "They just want to see it back to normal again." And for five nights in downtown Manhattan Beach, they'll get pretty close.

Southern California beach city to increase parking fees in beach lots and across the city: ‘It’s just not worth it’

Visitors to one of the most gorgeous Southern California beach towns will soon be paying a whole lot more in order to park so they can hit the sand — a move that’s already making some real waves with residents.

The city council of Manhattan Beach recently approved changes to the parking fee structure, increasing how much people pay to park and the citation fees for breaking the rules, per the city website.

Once the changes take effect on August 1, it is estimated the new fees and fines could bring in an extra $1 million in revenue in fiscal year 2027 to the city, per Manhattan Beach News.

Some of the changes include curbside parking in the downtown area increasing from $2.50 to $4.00 an hour, in the city’s busiest time between May and August. The rest of the year it will cost $3.50 an hour.

For those who want to park closer to the beach, El Porto, Bruce’s Beach, and Upper and Lower Pier lots, are going from $3.50 to $4 an hour during the summer months, while remaining at $3.50 the rest of the year.

Other parking spots in the city increased from $2.50 to $3.00 an hour during those peak times for beach visitors.

The city also voted to increase the amount drivers must pay for violating parking citations by $6 bucks. The average cost to park at expired meters or red zones would go from $59 to $65, per the report. Other parking violations had a similar increase across the board.

Officials said the changes are necessary to deal with the increase in demand for parking and “fund critical infrastructure needs, including the replacement of aging parking lots,” per the city website.

Council members also had the chance to vote on whether the rates would “increase gradually over five years, with an annual adjustment of 10%.”

However, they ultimately voted against “automatic annual increases” and instead voted to “review rates periodically,” per the report.

The city’s redevelopment parking plan also includes an upgrade to the current parking system, ditching parking meters for mobile pay systems, with the use of popular parking platform apps like ParkMobile and pay-by-plate stations, the Westside Current reported. This will allow drivers to pay via app, text, or phone calls.

Longtime residents expressed their outrage with the council over the increases and changes.

“I don’t know if I’m going to stop in and run a quick errand when it’s costing me four dollars for a meter,” one resident told members.

“It’s kind of crazy. I’d probably walk. But if I had to drive, I might just not stop…wherever I am doing take out, because it’s just not worth it.”

Another person said if the city wanted to save money, it could get rid of the workers who enforce parking in the city, due to the new mobile pay stations.

Beach towns in other parts of the state have undergone similar changes. Officials noted the increase is significantly less than in other places, where parking fees have gone up, naming Hermosa Beach and Newport Beach.

How Two Sites Could Transform Downtown Manhattan Beach

Almost a year into a research and public-input process, the city of Manhattan Beach last week unveiled conceptual designs for two downtown locations.One site, on Manhattan Beach Blvd. next to the Vons market, is known as 400 MBB, former site of a US Bank. The site is nearly a "gateway" to downtown Manhattan Beach.The other, known by its bland, official monicker "Lot 3," is the site of a former 3-story, 145-space parking structure tucked behind restaurants and shops on the north side of Manhatta...

Almost a year into a research and public-input process, the city of Manhattan Beach last week unveiled conceptual designs for two downtown locations.

One site, on Manhattan Beach Blvd. next to the Vons market, is known as 400 MBB, former site of a US Bank. The site is nearly a "gateway" to downtown Manhattan Beach.

The other, known by its bland, official monicker "Lot 3," is the site of a former 3-story, 145-space parking structure tucked behind restaurants and shops on the north side of Manhattan Beach Blvd., just west of the Metlox Plaza development. The site hosts a 69-space ground-level parking lot right now, after the Lot 3 structure was demolished in late 2024 due to seismic instability.

Initial public feedback made clear that local residents prioritize more parking and want to see more public open space, along with outdoor dining options.

Plans for both sites deliver on those resident demands.

400 MBB would get a new 2-story building (see first image above) labeled an "anchor hub," with three food & beverage spaces on the first floor, opening out to a sizable plaza that incorporates little-used Morningside Drive. The sprawling new open space would connect the new structure with the main stretch of shops and restaurants along Manhattan Beach Boulevard's south side. Morningside would be blocked with retractable bollards at each end of the plaza, allowing the area to be opened up as needed.

The second floor is designed for 5400 sqft. of "creative office" space, with a 3000 sqft. patio fronting MBB, with some potential ocean peeks and "sunset views" down the block.

A small surface lot with 16 spaces would be located in back, accessed via Morningside Drive and 10th Place, behind Vons.

Early public feedback about the 400 MBB location had demonstrated concern over traffic impacts of a significant development at the site, while city officials deemed it to be a poor fit for a major parking structure due to its small overall footprint.

Two options for Lot 3 were presented for public feedback.

"Option A" puts 129 parking spaces underground, on three levels, which opens up three levels above ground for retail, restaurants and a large "community patio" with an attached event space. If the city council allows the building to override zoning and go to three stories in this manner, the top floor would have significant beach and ocean views.

Retail would run along 12th Street, a stretch of downtown that is not much visited by the public now, as there are office buildings and a bank that fronts Highland Avenue along much of the street. (Trilogy Spa recently moved to a spot right across from the potential new building.)

Two restaurant spaces would get different sorts of patios – one mostly facing Morningside Drive and Metlox Plaza, with views up toward the Tree Section. Another would get a north- and west-facing patio with some ocean views.

"Option B" for Lot 3 recognizes some public sentiment for surface-level parking instead of underground, delivering 200 spaces for cars (71 more than Option A), with three underground levels and two above ground. The option lacks retail or restaurant spaces, but preserves a third-floor "community patio" and event space, provided that city council approves the nonconforming height.

For more images, and records of prior public feedback, see the full photo gallery below.

Next, the city council will review final concepts and public feedback at a September meeting.
