SECTION 2. That much of the subject property has been
. reclassified to Zone C-l within the last year; that there has been
no commercial development of the property since such rezoning; that
sufficient time has not elapsed to show the need of a different
zoningj that there is still much vacant C-2 property in the City of
Arcadia available for such commercial development that should be
used before more property is changed to general commercial use.
That the rezoning of subject property in three different blocks on
Duarte Road would constitute spot zoning.
SECTION 3. That no exceptional or extraordinary circum-
stances were shown applicable to the propertYj that it doe{l not
appear that public necessity, convenience, general welfare or good
zoning practice justify the requested zone change. That the granting
of such a variance would be detrimental and injurious to the surround-
.
ing R-l property.
SECTION 4. That for the foregoing reasons, this Commission
recommends to the City Council that the request of Fred M. Coxon and
others for a change of zone be denied.
SECTION 5. The Secretary shall certify to the adop~ion of
this Resolution and shall cause a copy to be forwarded to the City
Council of the City of Arcadia.
I HEREBY CERTIFY that the foregoing Resolution was adopted
