GPA -88-4) THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AZUSA DOES HEREBY RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1. The City Council of the City of Azusa does hereby find, determine, and declare that: A. The General Plan Amendment which is the subject of this Resolution was considered by the Planning Commission of the City of Azusa at a duly noticed public hearing held on November 23, 1988. By Resolution No. 2678 the Planning Commission recommended that the City Council amend the text of Section III of the General Plan for the purpose of bringing the Land Use Element into consistency with the Azusa Municipal Code. B. On January 3, 1989, the City Council of the City of Azusa held a duly noticed public hearing to determine whether the land use designation of the properties located in the area bounded by Foothill Boulevard, Pasadena Avenue, First Street, and San Gabriel Avenue should be amended in the General Plan from High Density Residential to Medium Density Residential. C. After public hearing and in consideration of all the oral testimony and written evidence presented at said public hearing, the City Council finds that: 1. There is in effect a duly adopted General Plan for the City of Azusa which contains a Land Use Element designating all property within the City for certain land uses. 2. The subject property is located in an area bounded by Foothill Boulevard on the north, San Gabriel Avenue on the west, First Street on the south, Pasadena Avenue on the east, as shown on the map on file with the City Clerk. 3. The adoption of an amendment changing the land use designation of the subject property from High Density Residential and General Commercial to Medium Density Residential is in the interest of the public health, safety and welfare of the City and is -1- FJN/RES7967 • • consistent with good zoning and planning practices.
