If tJ/ ~183 /' . . . . . . recommended is necessary for the preservation of substantial prop- erty rights of the applicant for the foregoing reasons. That the granting of the variance as hereinafte~ recomruended will not be in- consistent with good planning practice, nor vllth the provisions of the master zoning plan, nor with the present or prospective develop- ment of the neighborhood in which the property is located, but rather in conformity with each of the foregoing. That it will make possible the completion of a well planned and partially constructed medical office center. Nor will the granting of the variance here- inafter recommended adversely affect the comprehensive general plan; nor will it be materially detrimental t,o the property or improve- ments in the vicinity or zone in which the property is located. SECTION 3. That the use of any portion of the premises for e pharmacy will, however, exceed the uses presently or previ- ously allowed in the same vicinity or zone; will set a precedent of commercial use in~he immediate area and is not necessary for the preservation of substantial property rights of the applicant for the reason that subject property, at least since the adoption of Ordi- nance No. 760, has never been useable for such cO!lllllercial purpose.s. SECTION 4. For the foregoing reasons, this Commission reconnnends to the City Council of the City of Arc&dia that a vari- ance be granted to permit the above described property to be used for the construction, maintenance and operation thereon of a medical office building, including uses permitted in Subsections d, e, 1', i, j, k, 1 and n of Section 8.1 A 2 of Ordinance No. 760 as amended by Ordinance No. 900.
