ORDINANCE NO. 2165
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ARCADIA
,
CALIFORNIA, AMENDING THE ARCADIA MUNICIPAL CODE TO ADD A
SUBSECTION 14 TO SECTION 9264.2.9 AND AMENDING SECTION
9275.1.39.3 TO ALLOW AUTOMOBILE FUELING STATIONS IN THE
CBD/CENTRAL BUSINESS DISTRICT ZONE, SUBJECT TO A
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT.
WHEREAS, on May 22, 2002, Mr. Leon E. Felus filed application no.
TA 2002-001 to amend the Arcadia Municipal Code to add Automobile Fueling Stations
to the list, "Uses Subject To A Conditional Use Permit" in the CBD/Central Business
District Zone; and
WHEREAS, a public hearing was held before the Planning Commission of the
City of Arcadia on July 23, 2002, at which time all interested persons were given full
opportunity to be heard and to present evidence; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission recommended approval of the requested
text amendment to the City Council of the City of Arcadia; and
WHEREAS, a public hearing was held before the City Council on August 20,
2002, 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 the primary purpose of the
CBD/Central Business District Zone is to promote a strong pedestrian orientation
through a mix of permitted uses and specific development standards. After significant
review, and several years of implementation, the City Council has recognized that East
Huntington Drive is not a traditional central business district street, but is a four-lane
major arterial that intersects with the 210 Freeway and that commuter-related uses are
a convenience to the community. However, because of the primary purpose of the
CBD Zone, any automobile related use must be carefully designed so as not to
interfere with, or significantly detract from the pedestrian environment fostered by the
CBO Zone; and
WHEREAS, the City Council determines that based upon the evidence
presented, Automobile Fueling Stations, subject to a Conditional Use Permit can serve
the public necessity, convenience and general welfare, and therefore the proposed text
2165
amendment ;s justified.
NOW THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ARCADIA DOES
ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. That Section 92642.9 of the Arcadia Municipal Code be amended
by adding thereto Subsection 14 to read as follows:
"14. Automobile Fueling Stations as described In and subject to Section
9275.4.7, subsection 4."
Section 2. That Section 9275.1.39.3 of the Arcadia Municipal Code be
