SECTION 1. That the portion of the property at the corner
of Baldwin and Lemon Avenues consisting of 175 feet width on Baldwin
Avenue and 394 feet depth on Lemon Avenue is in Zone R-2, and is the
site of the existing church in existence at the time of its annexation
to the City and is the par'cel upon which the additional building is
proposed to be constructed. That the remainder of subject property
is in Zone R-l but was granted a variance for church parking purposes
by Resolution No. 3725 adopted by the Arcadia City Council on October 20,
1964. That until April 16, 1965, churches and schools were a use
permitted in Zone R-2, whereas a conditional use pernlit is not required
for such uses. That the additional building is necessary to provide
space for a growing congregation and to relieve the present crowded
conditions. That the granting of such conditional use permit will not
be detrimental to the public health or welfare or injurious to the
property or improvements in such zone or vicinity. That the use applied
for at the location indicated is properly one for which a conditional
use permit is authorized. That the site for the proposed use is ade-
quate in size and shape to accommodate said use, and all yards, spaces,
walls, fences, parking, loading, landscaping and other features re-
quired to adjust said use with the land and uses in the neighborhood.
That the location of the proposed structure is sufficiently removed
from any residential structures as not to be detrimental to the en-
vironment. That the site abuts Baldwin Avenue which is adequate in
width and pavement type to carry the kind of traffic generated by the
proposed use. That the granting of such conditional use permit will
not adversely affect the comprehensive general plan.
SECTION 2. That for the foregoing reasons, this Commission
hereby grants a conditional use permit to allow the construction of an
additional building to be used for Sunday School classrooms and nursery

PLANNING COMMISSION (~ 1 ~
PLANNING DEPARTMENT
FROM:
SUBJECT:
CONDITIONAL USE APPLICATION - C.U.P. 65 - 9, 1735 S. BAL[MIIN AVENUE
APPLlCA TlON
The applicotion is filed in the nome of the Arcadia Christian Reformed Church, requesting
a Conditional Use Permit to add to the church property a building to be used for Sunday
School classrooms and nursery facilities.
The property is located on the northwest corner of Lemon Avenue and Baldwin Avenue.
The church property, consisting of three lots, is commonly known as 721 W. Lemon
Avenue, 1735 and 1741 South Baldwin Avenue.
SUBJECT PROPERTY, SURROUNDING LAND USE AND ZONING
The subject site consists of approximately 58,950 square feet, with 175 feet of frontage
on Baldwin Avenue and 394 feet along Lemon Avenue. All three properties that make
up the church site are in Zone R-l as is all the surrounding property. The surrounding
properties are developed with single-family structures.
The existing and proposed development on the church site is indicated on the attached
plot plan. The church has 310 seats and 58 parking stalls, or I stall per every 5.8 seats.
This exceeds the present code requirements which allows a minimum of I stall per every
8 seats.
PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT
The location of the proposed building as illustrated on the plot plan would extend along
the southwest 75 feet of the property known as 1731 S. Baldwin Avenue, with a setback
of 5 feet. Although the proposal could meet the distance and construction requirements
of the building code, the Zoning Ordinance requires that all churches located in "R"
zones sholl be removed at least 15 feet from every boundary line of a property. To aid
the Planning Commission in evaluating the setback, improvements on the adjacent
properties hove been shown on the plot plan.

ANALYSIS
In the past, the subject property has been determined by the Commission and Council as
appropriate for church purposes.
The new building would add to the present facilities a nursery and sunday school rooms.
These odditions ore necessary to provide space for a growing congregation and to
relieve the present crowded conditions.
.
After investigation of the property in which the surrounding improvements, environment,
streets, lot area and dimensions were considered, it is the opinion of the Staff that the
new addition can be adjusted to the surroundings and accommodated on the church lot.
The present 1-1/3 acres of church property provide ample space for the present congre-
gation. The corner location on Baldwin Avenue gives the site desirable accessibility.
The location of the proposed structure would be removed sufficiently from any residential
structures so as not to be detrimental to the environment. The area should be further
enhanced by the conditions set forth in Resolution No. 3725 which gave the church permission
to use part of their property for park ing purposes (i,ndicated on the plot plan) Continu ing
compliance with these conditions should be required (See attachment).
RECOMMENDA TION
The Planning Department would, therefore, recommend approval of the plot plan, subject
to the following conditions:
1. Continuing compliance with the conditions of Resolution No. 3725.
-", .'
2. An architectural screen to be approved by the Planning Deportment sholl be provided
to screen visibility from the interior of the building to the adjacent residential
