June 12, 19 June 12, 1973 TO: PLANNING COMMISSION FROM: PLANNING DEPARTMENT SUBJECT: ZONE CHANGE Z-73-4 77 WEST LAS TUNAS DRIVE APPLICATION This application filed by Milton Enterprises, Inc., is a request for a change in zoning fro~ CoO to C-2 on property located at 77 West Las Tunas Drive. PRESENT LAND USE AND ZONING Subject property is vacant and zoned C-O. Property to the north is zoned R-1 and is 'developed with single family dwellings; property to the south is developed with commercial uses and is zoned C-M; property to the east of this site is zoned c-o and C-2and is the site for jojo's Restaurant and parking lot (approved February 13, 1973). Property to the west is zoned CoO and is developed with single family homes. PROPOSAL The applicant requests a change in zone for the site which is approximately 210 feet ,in width and 128 feet in depth, for a total of 28,696 square feet. The Planning Department feels the best land uses for this lot would be found in the c-o zone which would pro- vide proper commercial-residential interface. ANALYSIS The General Plan designates the area of the subject site to be general commercial. Both the pl'esent 'C-'O zoning and the proposed C-2 zonin~ would be consistent ,with the current General Plan designation. , l;l ;'-1- _.l I\l:,J', ('P(, \, Y', , . . . Z-73-4 2 The C-2 zone classification permits a greater range of land uses which are generally more intensive than the uses permitted under the existing zoning'. Therefore" the relationship be'tween the activities permitted and the adjoining properties is of 'critical concern. The existing R-1 single family area north of the sub- ject site has enjoyed some measure of protection from the poten-tial commercial deve10pmen,t of this property by the more restrictive C~O zoning.- The types of uses permitted in a C-2 zone are generally not desirable use~ to abut existing single family areas. The requested change of zone would not be contiguous to zoned property in the same zone classification, both of the adjoining properties to the ea'st and west are zoned CoO. RECOMMENDATION . The Planning Department recommends denial of this application for a zone change. However, should the Planning Commission wish to approve this application, such approval should be made subject to the following conditions. 1. Conditions as outlined in the attached report from the Department of Public Works sHall be complied with to the satisfaction of the Director ,of Public Works. PLANNING DEPARTMENT ~~ 1Y. W~ JE#~~~.

Does public necessity require the proposed change: Is there a real need in the community for more of the types of uses permitted by the zone requested than can be accommodated in the areas already zoned for such uses? (Fully explain your answers, considering the' surrounding property as well as the property proposed to be reclas,sified.) It is necessarv. considerina the quality of the develnpment, the need for a crime location. and a larger p;,rrel th;,n i~ 1I~1I;,1l.v available. to meet the parkin9 re9ulations The 7nne rh;,nge i~ ;,l~O neceSsarv. because this development will provide QII;,lit,y ;,nn ~ervires, . to the oublic. which are not presently prnviden ;,t ;,~ nther lnr;,tion to our knowledge. · B. Is ,the property involved in the proposed reclassification more suitable for the purpose~ permitted in the proposed zone tha~ for the purposes permitted in the present classification? (Answer completely; give all reasons for your answer). This could be answered "yes'" and "no" The prnperw h;,~ h""n Tor ~ale and available for quite sometime under its present zone, and it remains undeveloped. It would definitely be suited to the zone change requested, in as much as most of the property on Las Tunas is zoned commercial, except for the C-O zoni~g on the houses immediately west. . -2- . . , i. C. Would the uses permitted by the proposed zone be detrimental in any way to the surrounding property? (Explain reasons supporting your answer.) In no way should this be true. On the contrary. to transform a weedy, dirt lot into an architectuallv attractive development with heavy landscaping, and paved drives. this project would be, a. big improvement. . D. What were ,the original deed restrictions, if any, concerning the type and class of uses permitted on the property involved?' Give the expiration date of these restrictions.
