RESOLUTION NO. 3917
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF
THE CITY OF ARCADIA, CALIFORNIA,
DENYING A ZONE VARIANCE TO PERMIT THE
CONSTRUCTION OF A SHOPPING CENTER ON
PROPERTY LOCATED AT 250 WEST COLORADO
BOULEVARD IN SAID CITY.
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ARCADIA, CALIFORNIA, DOES
DETERMINE AND RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. That there was filed with the City Planning
Commission on September 27, 1966, the application of Norman L.
Scheinman as owner for a zone variance to permit the construction
of a market, restaurant and two shops on property located at 250
West Colorado Boulevard in the City of Arcadia, County of Los
Angeles, State of California, more specifically described as follows:
A part of Lot 1, Tract No. 949, as shown on map
recorded in Book 17, page 13, of Maps, records
of Los Angeles County, described as follows:
Beginning at the intersection of the curved
southerly line of Colorado Boulevard with the
northeasterly line of Colorado Place; thence
easterly along said curved southerly line of
Colorado Boulevard 290.04 feet; thence South
17041'40" West 235.47 feet to a point in the
northeasterly line of Colorado Place; thence
North 30033'16" West along said northeasterly
line of Colorado Place 385.26 feet to the point
of beginning.
That after due notice as required by the Zoning Ordinance of said
City a publiC hearing was duly held on the matter by and before the
City Planning Commission on October 25, 1966, at which time all
interested persons were given a full opportunity to be heard and to
present evidence. That said City Planning Commission thereafter on
November 8, 1966 adopted its certain Resolution No. 601 wherein and
whereby it recommended the denial of the requested variance.
SECTION 2. That subject property is a vacant parcel in
Zone R-3, formerly used for service station purposes. The adjacent
properties to the east and south are zoned R-3 and developed with
a motel and a church. Property to the west is zoned R-l and is part
-1-
3917
of the Turf Club complex. Properties to the north are in Zone R-3
and R-l with a mixture of uses. That although the irregular shape
of the parcel presents some problems, full development can be
achieved through proper architectural control and treatment. There-
fore there are no exceptional or extraordinary circumstances appli-
cable to the property involved, or to the intended use of the prop-
erty that do not apply generally to the property or class of use in
the same zone or vicinity. That the granting of commercial uses as
requested in this location would be detrimental to the public health
or welfare and injurious to property or improvements in such zone or
vicinity, and would adversely affect the comprehensive general plan.
That such variance is not necessary for the preservation and enjoy-
ment of a substantial property right of the applicant possessed by
other propert~r in the same zone or vicinity'.
SECTION 3. That for the foregoing reasons this City
Council hereby denies the requested zone variance to permit the
construction of a shopping center on the above-described property.
SECTION 4. The City Clerk shall certify to the 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
