ZONING COMMITTEE AND PLANNING DEPARTMENT
SUBJECT: PROPOSED AMENDMENTS - ZONE (-1
1. Delete from Section 9262.1 references to residential uses.
fR. ~~ tU-.C'~/~1'(, U4b>~M(!-/
2. Amend Section 9262. f.3. The code presently permiK automobile service
stations, except super service stations. The differences between the two
as defined by the code are:
(A) An automobile service station is a filling station containing not more
than six (6) pumps, one (1) grease rack, and one (1) wash rock, to
supply gasol ine and oil to motor vehicles and provide minor servicing
and soles of motor vehicle occessories.
(B) A super service station is an automobile filling station to supply
gosoline, oil and aiesel fuel to motor vehicles, and including
grease rocks or elevators, wash racks or pits, tire repoirs, battery
servicing and repairing, ignition service, sales of motor vehicles
accessories and other customary services for automobiles, including
major repair, towing service ond equipment rental, but excluding
painting, body work and steam cleaning.
If service stations are determined to be a suitable use in Zone (-1 they
should be limited expressly to automobile service stations, as presently
defined by the code and be subject to speciol regulations. Super stotions
ore not presently permitted in Zone C-l and should not be in the future.
If the Commission decides to prohibit service stations in Zone (-1, the three
stations ot the corner of Duorte Road and Second Avenue would assume a non-
conforming stotus. This situotion could be corrected, however, when the
Commission reviews the study currently underway which will recommend changes
in the zoning regulations on Duarte Road between First and Second Avenues to
encourage better development.
There are two service stotions in Zone (-Ion Live Oak Avenue which would be
offected by this oction. One is located at the northeast Corner of Santa Anita
and Live Oak Avenues. Both would become non-conforming. However, this
status could be temporary provided the Commission would initiote pubnc
hearings to ploce those properties in Zone (-2 and 0 which permits service
stations.

None of the stations on Hunti ngton Drive are presently in Zone C-1. However,
if the Commission (after public hearings) places these properties in Zone C-l
they would also become non-conforming. These statians are located on the
northwest and southeast corner of Huntington Drive ond First Avenue ond on the
southwest corner of Huntington Drive ond Second Avenue. All of these
properties, except the one ot the northwest corner of Huntington Drive and
Santa Anita Avenue ore in Zone H.
If, on the other hand, the Commission decides to permit service stations
in Zone C-1, such permission should be subject to site and merchandising
restrictions.
The Staff's solution to the service station problem is to place the ones located
on Duarte Rood and on live Oak Avenue in Zone C-2 and 0; to prohibit them
in Zone C-l which would cause the eventuol elimination of the stations on
Huntington Drive.
3. Change Section 9262.1.31 to permit the sale of intoxicating beverages in
restauronts, tearooms, cafes, whenever such sales constituted an auxiliary
rather than principle use of the premises.
REGULATIONS
1. Delete Section 9262.2.3 and 2.5. These sections pertain to residential
setbacks ond would not be required if residential uses are not permitted.
2. Amend Section 9262.2.6. A port of this section limits the size af a commercial
building to 5000 square feet.
