THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ARCADIA, CALIFORNIA, DOES
HEREBY DETERMINE AND RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION l. That there was filed with the City Pla~ning
Commission on March 28, 1967, the application of T. Howard Davis,
et aI, as owners, requesting the reclassification from Zone R-3 to
Zone C-2 and D or other more appropriate zoning of property located
at 8l~-857 Duarte Road and 1122-1l26 Golden West Avenue in the City
of Arcadia, County of Los Angeles, State of California, more spe-
cifically described as follows:
Lots 128, 129, 130, 131 and l32 of Tract
No. 273l as recorded in Book 33, Page 29,
of Maps, in the office of the County
Recorder of Los Angeles County;
That after notice required by the Zoning Ordinance of said City, as
amended, a pUblic hearing was duly held on said amended application
by and before said City Planning Commission on May 23, 1967, at which
time all interested persons were given a full opportunity to be heard
and to present evidence. That the City Planning Commission thereupon
adopted its certain Resolution No. 613 on June 13, 1967, wherein and
whereby it made findings and determinations and recommended the denial
of the requested zone change. That thereafter, after notice duly
given, a public hearing on said matter was held by and before this
City Council on July 18, 1967, at which time all interested persons
were given full opportunity to be heard and to present evidence.
SECTION 2. That subject property includes eleven lots with
a gross land area of approximately 180,000 square feet with nine lots
fronting on Duarte Road with a frontage of approximately 700 feet, the
remaining two lots fronting on Golden West Avenue with a frontage of
-1-
3953
approximately l14 feet. That property to the south is zoned C-2 and
C-l; property to the east is zoned C-2 and D; and property to the west
, and north is R- 3.
SECTION 3. That subjec.t property is developed with resi-
dential uses. That at present there are approximately 23 acres of
, .
property in the West Arcadia area zoned for commercial use that is un-
developed a~d which is sufficient to meet projected future demands;
that there are large amounts of commercially developed land that should
be used more intensely than has been done in the past. That expansion
of strip commercial zoning'is undesirable. That the City's primary
purpose to serve as a quality residential area would be undermined if
the concept be followed that the best use of land is necessarily the
most intensive use to which it can be developed,
SECTION 4. That for the foregoing reasons the requested
reclassification of the above described prop~rty should be and the
same is hereby denied.
SECTION 5. The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of
this resolution.

1967, by the affirmative vote of at least
