That there vere numerous protests both written and oral against the requested reclassification, base1 in part upon a lessening of privacy and decline in value of adjacent single family residential properties; that the requested re- classification would result in a lessening of OlJner interest with consequent decline in upkeep and appearance of subject pro- perty to the detriment of the adjoining single family resldentlal properties. SECTION 2. That, as heretofore found in prooeedings affect- , ing si",1.lar1y situated property, subject properties are not ideally slrl-tad for single family residential development) that when zoned R-l Baldwin Avenue had not been extended as a major traffic arterial to Colorado Boulevard; that the extension of Baldwin Avenue and development as a major traffic arterial militates against its continued restriction to single family residential uses; however, the unqualified transition to Zone R-3 would be extremely detrimental to adjaoent properties and entirely -1- 10'! . . . . . . . unwarranted; that the orderly development of these properties and the protection of the entire area requ1re the eonsideration of all properties similarly affected by and abutting Baldwin Avenue from Huntington Drive to the Los Angeles State .and County Arboretwn.
