NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ARCADIA DOES HEREBY ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1. The undeveloped mountainous area in Arcadia constitutes 308.58 acres and is contiguous to portions of the north and east boundaries of the City. The mountainous terrain found in the aforesaid area requires special controls not found in Zone R-l to insure proper development of the mountainous portions of Arcadia. The Design Overlay established by Arcadia City Council Resolution 4335 previously granted a Design Overlay ("D") for a portion of the area defined in Section 1 of Exhibit "A", which Exhibit "A'" is by this reference fully incorporated in this ordinance. Aforesaid Arcadia City Council Resolution -1- 1614 No. 4335 is by this reference fully incorporated herein. This Design Overlay provides for a review process by the Highland Homeowners Association Architectural Review and Planning Com- mittee which should be retained in the form of Zone R-M & D. The more restrictive regulations shall apply should there be any conflict between the Design Overlay and Ordinance 1597 and any amendments to the sections specified thereunder. SECTION 2. The zoning maps set forth in Sections 9233.1, 9233.2 and 9233.5 of the Arcadia Municipal Code are hereby amended so that the zoning of the property described in Section 1 of Exhibit "A" be changed from R-ID 10,000 to R-M D, in Section 2 of Exhibit "A" from R-l to R-M, and in Section 3 of Exhibit "A" from R-l to R-M. SECTION 3. The City Council finds that the proposed change would provide uniform zoning within the area, would bring the zoning into conformance with the General Plan, provide ade- quate protection for hillside areas, and that the public conven- ience, necessity and general welfare justify the above zone change.
