Approximately 104,017 square feet (2.39 acres) North - Commerciall zoned C-2 South - Residential 1 zoned R-l East - Residential and commercial useSl zoned R-2 and C-2 West - Commercial; zoned C-2 Commercial . . . SPECIAL INFORMATION In 1949 the subject site was rezoned from R-3 to PR-3 to allow for parking. The subject site is located within the Alquist-Priolo Special Studies Zone. Before any project is constructed within the Special Stu~ies Zone, a geologic report must be prepared and submitted to the City's geologist. ANALYSIS The proposed zone change to C-2 would be consistent with the General Plan designation of Commercial and would encourage development of the area. This zone change would eliminate the problems associated with properties which have two zone designations, i.e., the possibility of constructing an R-3 development on the rear of a property currently developed with commercial uses. The C-2 zone requires a 20 foot rear yard setback which reduces the negative impacts of commercial properties which back up to (adjoin) residential properties. 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 disclose any sub- stantial or potentially substantial adverse change in any of the physical conditions within the area affected by the project in- clUding 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 City Council takes action on this project, the Council should "move to approve and file the Negative Declaration and find that the project will not have a significant effect on the environment."
