RESOLUTION NO. 766 A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF ARCADIA MAKING RECOMMENDA- TIONS RELATIVE TO ZONING IN THE AREA ON BOTH SIDES OF FIRST AVENUE BETWEEN FOOTHILL BOULEVARD AND THE FOOTHILL FREE- y!AY, INCLUDING THREE IRREGULAR PARCELS ON COLORADO BOULEVARD ADJACENT TO AND EASTERLY OF THE FREEWAY. WHEREAS, a public hearing was held on January 25, 1972, for the purpose of considering changing the existing R-2 and ,R-3 zones to the R-l zone on the following described property: . All property on both sides of First Avenue between Foothill Boulevard and Foothill Freeway; 60, 62 and 67'East Floral Avenue; 50, 63 and 05 East Forest Avenue; 105 and 123 East Haven Avenue; 15l East Colorado Boulevard; and portions of Lots 4 and 5 of Tract 16772, Map Book 422, pages 27 and 28, and portions of Lots 1 and 2 of Haven Tract, Map Book 13, pages 22 and 23; and WHEREAS, all interest persons were given full oppor- tunity to be heard and to present evidence. NOW, THEREFORE, THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF ARCADIA HEREBY DETERMINES AND RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1. The Planning Commission recorrmends to the City Council that the portion of said property which is presently zoned R-2 remain as R-2, and the property presently zoned R-3 be rezoned to R-2. SECTION 2. The Planning Commission finds that the publiC . necessity, convenience, general welfare, good zoning practice, and the following findings justify the above recommendations. a. If the recommendation is adopted, all property on First Avenue between the freeway and the commercial property adjacent to Foothill Boulevard will be in the R-2 zone which will -1- 766 .' . . '. . provide a continuity of the R-2 zone which is more desirable than separating this area into R-2 and R-3 zones. b. The existing R-2 property should remain with that zoning because of the location of a substantial amount of the property along the Santa Anita Wash and the type of existing developments; the size and shape of most of the parcels are not ideal for single-family or R-3 development. . c. The parcels of p~operty in the R-3 zone are of such a size and location that R-2 development is more suitable and such zoning will permit the nine existing R-l properties to be remodeled, enlarged and maintained in good condition, whereas present non- conforming use regulations in the R-3 zone make it difficult to remodel and maintain a single-family residence. SECTION 3. The Secretary shall certify to the adoption of this resolution and shall cause a copy to be forwarded to the City Council of the City of Arcadia I HEREBY CERTIFY that the foregoing resolution was adopted at a regular meeting of the Planning Commission of the City of Arcadia held on the 22nd day of February , 1972, by the following vote: AYES: Commissioners Kuyper, Lauber, PerIis, Reiter, Erickson NOES: Commissioner Huddy .
