SECTION 1. iVHEREAS, on the 23rd day of November, 1949,

the petition of Hygiene Products Company, requesting a zoning

to wit: Lot 29, Tract No. 6860, as shown on map recorded in Book

49 North Third Avenue, in said City of Arcadia, to permit the above
described property to be used for certain business purposes, to wit,
a drivewa.y for commercial and other vehicles and as an entrance to
the property located immediately west of the aforesaid property; and
WHEREAS, the property is now located in a
multiple-family zone, to wit, R-3 zone, and

the Planning Commission of the City of Arcadia, on the 15th day of

\VHEREAS, in the opinion of the Planning Commis-
sion the zoning variance that would permit the use of a lot or lots

do not require or indicate the desirability of the variance requested,
and
\rrlEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of
Arcadia did recommend in its Resolution No. 20, dated the 19th day
of January, 1950, that the aforesaid petition be denied, for the
following reasons, to wit:
1. The request of the petitioners is contrary to
the spirit and intent of the Master Zoning Plan of the City of Ar-
cadia which was adopted and became effective on June 3rd, 1940,
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, have objected to any variance that would permit
the invasion of business uses into a residential district or zone,
such property o~~ers being desirous of, and entitled to, the main-
taining of the present residential zoning of the area involved;
3. The Planning Commission considers it inconsistent
with good planning practice to encourage or permit heavy trucking
and other commercial practices upon or over residential property
and to thus circumvent the intent of the Master Zoning Ordinance; and
WHEREAS, the aforesaid Resolution No. 20 of the
Planning Commission of the City of Arcadia, was adopted by the Com-
mission on January 19th, 1950,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED:
SECTION 2. That the City Council of the City of
Arcadia does hereby approve and adopt the foregoing recommendations
of the Planning Commission, as set forth in said Resolution No. 20
of said Planning Commission, and does hereby deny to petitioners the
request for re-zoning heretofore described.
SECTION 3. The City Clerk shall certify to the
2.
adoption 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 7th of February, 1950, by the affirmative vote of at
least three Councilmen, .to wit:
AYES: Councilmen Boucher, Klomp, Nugent and Russell
