A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF ARCADI!\., CAI,rFORNIA, DENYING THE PETITION
FOR RECI.ASSIFICATION FROr-: ZONE R-3 TO ZONE C-2
OF CERTAIN REAL PROPERTY IN SAID CITY.
.
WHEREAS, there was filed with the City Planning Commission
of the City of lu'cadia the petition of Holger A. and Cellia H.
Valentine, as owners, requesting the reclassification from Zone R-3
to Zone C-2 of the following described property in the City of
Arcadia, to-wit:
.
Lot 55, Tract No.l32l7, as shown on map record-
ed in Book 264, Pages 26 and 27 of Maps, records
of Los i\ngelos County, and being located at the
Northeast corner of Second Avenue Bnd Live Oak
Avenue.
vrnEREAS, after due notice as required by law public hoarings
were held on the matter by and before said Planning Commission on
August 26, 1952 and September 10, 1952, at which times all 1nterested
persons were given a full opportunity to be heard and to present
evidence; and
~r.HEREAS, on the 18th day of November, 1952, after due notice
. a pUblic hearing was held on the matter by ~~d before the City Council,
at which time all interested persons were eiven a full opportunity
to be heard and t" present evidence; and
~~REAS, the City Council on November 18, 1952, took the metter
under advisement and has since considered the evidence presented and
the findings and recommendations of the City Planning Commission re-
la. ti va thereto;
NOW, THER1WORE, the City Council of the City of !l.rcadia does
hereby find, de tel'mine and resol ve e.s follows:
SECTION 1. That all of the property adjacent to and on the
.
North side of the subject property is zoned R-l. That subject property
is wall suited for and may readily be used for the purposes for whtch
1.t is presently zc.ned. That subject property is zoned R-3 and in
e.ddi tion to mul tiplo family purposes subject property may la'tfully
be used for bungalow courts, boardine &~d lodGins houses, offices
of physiciQns, surgeons, dentists and other practitioners, privete
cluba, schools end churches among other th1r-es. That the fact that
.

. .
.
subject propert~ is suitable for some of such uses is evidenced
by the fact that within the same block of subject propert~ &~d on
the same side of the street there is a lares group of professional
offic€s, towit: the Live Oak Medical Building. Although Live Oak
Avenue is one of the major East-West traffic arterials in the
City of Arcadia, Second Avenue is neither a through North-South
traffic arterial nor is it nearly so ~eavily travelled as Santa
Anita Avenue and Baldwin AVenue. It is not a truck route as is
Santa Anita hvenuG, nor is it presently plennod to become a through
traffic arterial. That the use of the subject property for the
majority if not all of the uses permitted in Zone C-2 would be
injuriOUS and detrimental to the adjacent and surrounding properties
in the general Vicinity and zone. That the subject property is a
relatively small parcel and the commercial zoning thereof would
permit it to be used for purposes inharmonious with and detrimental
to the uses permitted on adjacent properties. That the reclassifi-
cation of the subject property to Zone C-2 would be premature and
. would retard or prevent the orderly development of the area. That
.
.
the requested change of classification is not necessary for the
preservation or' protection of substantial property rights of the
applicante. Ttat there are no circumstances applicable to the
subject property that are not equally applicable to other properties
in the same Vicinity and zone especially along Live Oak Avenue.
SECTI01\'" 2. That for the foregoing reasons the request of
peti~rfor a change of classification from Zone R-3 to Zone C-2
shall be and the same is hereby denied.
SECTIO~ 3. The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption
of this Resolution.
I HEREC~ CERTIFY that the foregoing Resolution vas adopted
at a regular meeting Qf the City Council held on the 16th day
of December, by the affirmative vote of at least three Council-
men to-wit:
