ORDINANCE NO. 2093
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
ARCADIA, CALIFORNIA, ADDING SECTION 9275.1.52.4 TO THE
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT SECTION OF THE ARCADIA
MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING TO ALLOWING OFFICE USES IN
THE M-1 ZONE WHEN ADJACENT TO RESIDENTIALLY ZONED
PROPERTY (TA 98-003).
WHEREAS, on July 28, 1998, McMahon Development Group, LLC filed an
application to amend Secti(;ln 9266.1.4 of the M-1 (Planned Industrial District) zone to
allow governmental offices in the M-1, Community Development Division Case No. T.A.
98-003.
WHEREAS, a public hearing was held on September 8, 1998 before the
Planning Commission at which time all interested persons were given full opportunity to
be heard and to present evidence, and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Arcadia recommended
approval of this text amendment with the suggested change that office uses be allowed
in the M-1 or any less restrictive industrial zone when said lot is adjacent to residentially
zoned property and only subject to the conditional use permit process.
WHEREAS, a public hearing was held before the City Council on October 20,
1998, at which time all interested persons were given full opportunity to be heard and to
present evidence; and
WHEREAS, the City Council hereby finds that under certain conditions, office
uses may provide an appropriate buffer between residential property and industrial
property because generally office uses are less intrusive than industrial uses and most
office uses do not operate during the late evening hours. In addition office traffic is
usually less intense than traffic associated with industrial uses. Because of the limited
amount of property zoned industrial within the City, office uses in the industrial zones
should be restricted to areas where they provide a transition from residential to
industrial and allowed only with an approved conditional use permit.
