AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF AZUSA AMENDING THE CITY ZONING MAP TO
REFLECT THE RECLASSIFICATION OF THE
PROPERTIES LOCATED AT 840 EAST FOOTHILL
BOULEVARD, 830 SOUTH AZUSA AVENUE, 600 WEST
GLADSTONE STREET AND 1081 WEST ARROW HIGHWAY
TO RMP AND CERTIFYING NEGATIVE DECLARATION
FOR SAID PROJECT.
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that it is the
responsibility of each city to provide a range of housing options
for its residents. Mobilehome parks present affordable housing
opportunities for many people who desire a single-family
residential atmosphere yet cannot afford a conventional home.
The imposition of the RMP zone on these four existing parks would
protect this option for the residents by preventing the
redevelopment of these sites for other uses. This would help to
preserve this endangered housing option within the City.
WHEREAS, the City Council has approved in concept a zone
change for the properties located at 840 East Foothill Boulevard,
830 South Azusa Avenue, 600 East Gladstone Street and 1081 West
Arrow Highway to RMP. Such a zone change requires an amendment
to the City Zoning Map the procedure for which is set forth in

c. Does the project have impacts which are individually limited but
cumulatively considerable? ( A project may impact on two or more
separate resources where the impact on each resource is relatively
small, but where the effect of the total of those impacts on the

III. DISCUSSION OF ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATION
8.a.&b. The proposed project would rezone four existing mobilehome parks
from R3a and R3c (Multi-family Residential) and C3 (General
Commercial) to RMP (Residential Mobilehome Park). This would
eliminate future non-mobilehome park uses from these properties.
11. The project would eliominate the possibility of medium to high
density residential or commercial development from being constructed
in the future on four parcels currently occupied by mobielhome parks.
12. The proposed zoning would protect the existing mobilehome parks
from redevelopment with other uses.
IV. MITIGATION MEASURES
Describe mitigation measures included in the project, if any are
needed, to avoid potentially significant effects:
None Required
V. DETERMINATION
(To be completed by Lead Agency)
On the basis of this initial evaluation:
y I find the proposed project COULD NOT HAVE a significant
effect on the environment, and a NEGATIVE DECARATION has
been prepared and is attached.
I find that although the proposed project could have a
significant effect on the environment, there will not be a
significant effect in this case because the mitigation
measures described on an attached sheet have been added to
the project. A NEGATIVE DECLARATION WILL BE PREPARED.
I find the proposed project MAY have a significant effect
effect on the environment and an ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
REPORT is required.
