December l2, 1978 TO: CITY OF ARCADIA PLANNING COMMISSION FROM: PLANNING DEPARTMENT CASE NO: GENERAL PLAN CHANGE 78-2 PREPARED BY: JEFFREY F. WITTE ASSOCIATE PLANNER APPLICATION An application has been filed by Bud Heck to change the General Plan Land Use Designation from Single Family (0-6 du/ac) to Multiple Family (7+ du/ac) for the property at 45-55 Christina Street. This property was previously used as a parking lot for a market building that fronted on Duarte Road to the north. The old market building has been demolished and replaced with a racquetball club (C.U.P. 77-2) which does not need the parking lot fronting on Christina Street to comply with Code. All of the lots on the north side of Christina Street from Santa Anita to the Arcadia Church of Christ are zoned R-3. These lots with the exception of the subject site and the church site are developed with well-maintained multiple-family units. The applicant can, at the present time, develop an apartment complex without any special authorization from the City other than the customary building permits. However, the owner would like to develop condominium units on the property. Condominiums, unlike apartments, must be developed on a site where the zoning and General Plan are consistent. All of the properties on the north side of Christina Street have been included in the notice of this consideration so as to permit a more comprehensive general plan change. LAND USE AND ZONING The area for consideration by the Planning Commission contains 12 lots developed with apartment units and a parking lot zoned R-3 in addition to a church that is zoned R-2. The property to the south, east and west is developed with single-family residential uses and has R-l zoning. The property to the north is developed with a variety of commercial uses and is zoned C-2 and PR-I. . G.P. 78-2 2 ZONING CONSISTENCY The Arcadia General Plan was adopted prior to the State's requirements for zoning consistency, at a time when a City's General Plan was intended to serve as a policy document rather than a mirror image of the zoning map. In several areas, the Arcadia General Plan does not provide the small scale details necessary to make the appropriate findings in respect to consistency with the zoning ordinance. State Government Code Section 65860 (a) encourages cities to review their zoning and planning policies in order to evaluate whether the various land uses authorized by the city ordinances are compatible with the objectives, policies and general land use programs specified in their General Plans. ANALYSIS . The properties on the north side of Christina Street between Santa Anita Avenue and First Avenue are generally well-maintained multiple-family uses and provide a good residential mix in the neighborhood. A zone change in this area now zoned and developed with R-3 type uses to R-l type uses which would conform to the present General Plan, appears to be unrealistic at this time. The proposal to change the General Plan designation for all of the north side of Christina would not have an adverse impact on the existing Arcadia Church of Christ as churches are permitted in a wide variety of land use settings with an approved conditional use permi t. Staff feels that a change in the General Plan from Residential Single Family (0-6 du/ac) to Multiple Family (7+ du/ac) would be consistent with good planning practice. Pursuant to the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act, the Planning Department has prepared an initial study for the proposed project. Said initial study did not dis- close any substantial or potentially substantial adverse change in any of the physical conditions within the area affected by the project including land, air, water, minerals, flora, fauna, ambient noise, and objects of historical or aesthetic significance. Therefore, a Negative Declaration has been prepared for this project. .. Before the Planning Commission and City Council take action on this project, the Council and Commission should "move to approve and file the Negative Declaration and find that the project will not have a significant effect on the environment." . . ". , .~ G.P. 78-2 3 RECOMMENDATION The Planning Department recommends that the Land Use Element of the General Plan be amended to show the area between Santa Anita Avenue and First Avenue on the north side of Christina Stre~t as Residential Multiple Family (7+ du/ac).
