A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF AZUSA, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING A TWO-YEAR
TIME EXTENSION FOR DESIGN REVIEW DR 2007-43
FOR THE 700 BLOCK OF DALTON AVENUE, AZUSA,
CALIFORNIA
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Azusa, approved Design Review DR -2007-43
for the Dalton Avenue Project on April 7, 2008 for two years or until April 7, 2010; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Municipal Code Section 88.52.040.C, the review authority may
extend the time for an approved permit to be exercised; and
WHEREAS, on March 24, 2010, the Planning Commission recommended that the City
Council extend the Design Review expiration date from April 7, 2010 to April 7, 2012; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has carefully considered all pertinent testimony and the
staff report offered in the case as presented.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AZUSA DOES
HEREBY RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1: In accordance with City of Azusa Municipal Code Section .52.040.C.2, the City
Council does hereby approve the two-year time extension of Design Review DR 2007-43, based
on the following Findings of Fact.
The proposed extension is consistent with the General Plan, and any applicable
specific plan, and the overall project remains consistent with those plans as they exist
at the time the extension request is being considered.
The proposed Design Review extension of time is being requested for the originally
approved project, without any changes. The original project is consistent with
General Plan Chapter 3, Goal 1: "Provide for a complete and integrated mix of
residential, commercial, industrial, recreational, public and open space meeting the
needs of existing and future residents and businesses", and with General Plan Chapter
3, Goal 3 "Azusa's corridors (Azusa Avenue, San Gabriel Avenue, Foothill
Boulevard and Arrow Highway) will be transformed into well-planned transit
corridors, providing some retail and commercial opportunities in mixed-use settings,
providing opportunities for new homes and connecting all the neighborhoods and
Districts." Therefore, the extension of time for the unchanged Design Review would
also be consistent with the General Plan. In addition, allowing the project extra time
to obtain funding would help to ensure the completion of the project, which is
consistent with General Plan Chapter 3, Policy 4.1 to "encourage the revitalization of
the four districts each with its special or unique focus, identity and mix of uses."
2. There are adequate provisions for public services and utilities (e.g., access, drainage,
fire protection, sewers, water, etc.) to ensure that the proposed extension would not
endanger, jeopardize or otherwise constitute a hazard to the public health, safety, or
general welfare, or be injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity and
applicable zoning district.
The original project was reviewed by the various City Departments. At that time,
Conditions of Approval were attached to the proposed project to ensure that adequate
provisions for public services and utilities were in place. These Conditions of
Approval are still a component of the project and will be enforced prior to the
issuance of Building Permits and Occupancy Permits. In addition, the site of the
proposed project is adequately enclosed by temporary construction fencing. This
ensures that the approval of an additional extension of time for the project will not
endanger, jeopardize or otherwise constitute a hazard to the public health, safety, or
general welfare, or be injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity and
applicable zoning district.
Section 2: This Resolution shall take effect immediately upon its adoption.
Section 3: The Mayor shall sign this Resolution and the City Clerk shall attest and certify to the
passage and adoption of this Resolution.
PASSED AND ADOPTED this 21" day of June, 2010.
