PROPOSAL:
City of Arcadia
Text amendment adding the lot area designations
for the R-O and R.l zones to the "Division"
titles, and adding the lot area designations to
the Division on "Creation of Zones."
GENERAL INFORMATION
At the present time, the zoning ordinance in Division 1, Part 3,
Chapter 2 of Article IX on "Creation of Zones" does not include
in the R-O and R-l category, the minimum lot sizes. There are no
specific references to lot sizes in the zoning ordinance. It is
staff's opinion that in order to make the zoning ordinance more
comprehensive, the various lot sizes should be incorporated in
the zoning ordinance as follows:
Division 1, Part 3, Chapter 2, of Article IX "Creation of Zones"
should read:
"9231.1. R-O. FIRST ONE-FAMILY ZONE.
9231.1.1. R-O 30,000.
9231.1.2. R-O 22,000.
9231.1.3. R-O 15,000.
. 9231.1. 4. R-O 12,500. "
.
.
T .A. 78-1

"9231.2. R-1. SECOND ONE-FAMILY ZONE.
9231.2.1. R-l lZt500,
9231.2.2. R-l 10,000.
9231.2.3. R-17,500."
Division 1 of Article IX, Chapter 2, Part 5 should be amended
to read:
"DIVISION 1. R-O 30,000, 22,000, 15,000 AND 12,500 FIRST
ONE-FAMILY ZONE."
Also Division 2 of Article IX, Chapter 2, Part 5 should be amended
to read:
"DIVISION 2. R-l 12,500, 10,000, 7,500 SECOND ONE-FAMILY
ZONE."
Including these lot sizes in the "Division" titles establishes
these zones as classifications in the zoning ordinance. These
zones could then be applied to any property within the City
through zone change procedures and not through text amendments to
the subdivision ordinance as is presently the case.
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 signifi-
cance. 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."
RECOMMENDATION
The Planning Department recommends approval of T.A. 78-1 as noted
above.
