from Zone R-l to Zone PR-3, looated at the corner of Santa Anita
. Avenue and Live Oak Avenue, pursuant to Which, after notioe as re-
quired by law. a public hearing was held by and before this Commis-
sion on December 13, 1955, at which time all interested persons were
given full opportunity to be heard and to present evidence.
.
SEC~ION 2. That while there were expressions in favor of
the requested rezoning, both oral and written, as being the best de-
velopment of the property in that locality, there were numerous pro-
tests against the rezoning because of the additional traffio hazards,
which would result therefrom and because of the resultant olose
proximity of business to a residential area whioh would depreciate
property values. That a portion of the property along Live Oak Ave-
nue is presently zoned C-3; that the rezoning, if granted, will per-
mit the building site to be relocated so as to provide more par~ng
area in front of the building which is the present trend for large
markets. That a partial reclassification of the subject property
can be acoom11shed, upon the conditions hereinafter recommended
without detriment to the adjacent residential properties.
.
SECTION 3. That for the foregoing reasons, this Commis-
sion recommends to the City Council that the follOWing desoribed
property be reclassified to Zone C-3:
