before the Planning Commission of the City of Arcadia, on

~mEREAS, in the opinion of the Planning Commission the

\IlOEl'''O
AIID, VffiEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of
Arcadia, in its Resolution No. 15, dated December 1, 1949,
recommended that the aforesaid petition be denied, for the
following reasons, to wit:
1. The request of petitioners is contrary to the
spirit and intent of the Master Zoning Plan of the City of
Arcadia which was adopted and became effective on June 3rd,
1949, after a series of public hearings and which plan was
unanimously approved by the Planning Commission and the City
Council;
2. A majority of property owners within a 300 foot
radius of the property in question, and other property owners
in the neighborhood, object to any variance that would per-
mit the division of R-O zone lots and/or the erecting of
buildings thereon;
3. The granting of this variance an~ the improving
of the lot so formed would effectually prevent any future
street that may be desired from Holly to El Monte between
Walnut and Palm. Vifhile it may grant relief to two property
owners in this block, it would at the same time prevent any
future relief to twenty other property owners in the same
block and would therefore be detrimental to their interest;
4. The Planning Commission considers it inconsistent
with good planning practice to encourage or permit changing
the boundaries of recorded lots to circumvent the intent of
the Master Zoning Ordinance;
ArID, ~lliEREAS, the aforesaid Resolution No. 15 of the
Planning Commission of the City of Arcadia was adopted by
the Commission on the 1st day of December, 1949,
2.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. That the City Council of the City of
Arcadia does hereby approve and adopt the foregoing recom-
mendations of the Planning Corr~ission, as set forth in said
Resolution No. 15, of said Co~mission, and does hereby deny
the request of petitioners for a zoning variance affecting
the real property hereinabove described.
SECTION 2. The City Clerk shall certify to the adop-
tion of this Resolution.
I HEREBY CERTIFY that the foregoing Resolution was
adopted at a regular meeting of the City Council of the
City of Arcadia, held on the 20th day of December, 1949,
