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 April 11, 1967, which hearing was duly continued from
time to time to June 27, 1967, at each of which times all interested

dia Municipal Code, pursuant to which, after notice duly given a
public hearing was duly held on August 1, 1967, by and before the
City Council of the City of Arcadia, at which time all interested
persons were given full opportunity to be heard and to present evi-
dence;
NOW, THEREFORE, THE, CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ARCADIA,
CALIFORNIA, DOES DETERMINE AND RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. That the proposed extension of the existing
convalescent hospital far exceeds the density of development per- ,
mitted by the original variance under which the hospital was con-
structed and is far in excess of the density of development contem-
plated by such variance. That the proposed expansion would encroach
into what is now open space and would be entirely too close to the
properties to the south facing Callita Street; and that the proper-
ties on Callita Street would be seriously and adversely affected by
the proposed expansion. That though the type of development may be
a proper use of the vacant property to the' north, the combination

of such development with the addition to the front'and rear of the
existing convalescent hospital would permit over-development of the
property, excessive density of development, and an unsatisfactory
resulting condition.
SECTION 2. That for the foregoing reasons this City Council
sustains the action of the City Planning Commission in denying the
request for a conditional use permit to expand an existing convales-
cent hospital and to construct a retirement home on the above-des-
cribed property, and said request is hereby denied.
SECTION 3. 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
on the 5th day of September, 1967, by the affirmative vote of at
