MADRE AVENUE FROM W TO R3a AND CERTIFYING THE NEGATIVE
DECLARATION FOR SAID PROJECT.
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AZUSA DOES HEREBY ORDAIN
AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. The City Council of the City of Azusa
determines and declares as follows:
A. The Planning Commission for the City of Azusa held
a duly noticed public hearing on March 15, 1995, and,
after fully considering all oral and written testimony
offered at the aforementioned public hearing, adopted
Resolution No. 95-11, recommending to the City Council
the adoption of this ordinance.
B. The City Council of the City of Azusa held a duly
noticed public hearing on April 17, 1995, concerning this
ordinance and fully and carefully considered all oral and
written testimony offered therein prior to acting on this
ordinance.
C. The 8,540 square foot piece of land purchased from
the Los Angeles County Flood Control District consists of
a 2 ,850 square foot strip on the western edge of the site
and a 5, 690 square foot piece along the northern edge.
The proposed zone change would bring the designations for
this small strip of land into conformance with those of
the remainder of the project site. The addition of this
land allows more flexibility in the design of the project
and would add 2 more homes to the City's housing stock
without overcrowding this project.
D. The amendment to the Zoning Map as set forth in this
ordinance is consistent with and in conformance to the
General Plan of the City of Azusa, and each of the
elements thereof and furthers the intent and purpose of
Chapter 86, ZONING, of the Azusa Municipal Code.
E. In taking this action, the City Council has
considered the effects of its decision on the housing
needs of the region in which the City is located and
balanced those needs against the public service needs of
the city's residents and available fiscal and
environmental resources.
SECTION 2 . The Zoning Map of the City of Azusa is
hereby amended to reflect the change in zoning for the property
located at 475 West Sierra Madre Avenue from W to R3a.
SECTION 3 . Pursuant to the State CEQA guidelines, a
negative declaration, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit
A, has been prepared and reviewed, finding that the proposed
project could not have a significant effect on the environment.
The City Council hereby certifies said negative declaration, with
the proviso that the mitigation measures, if any, recommended in
the initial study, be implemented.
SECTION 4. The City Clerk shall certify to the
passage of this ordinance and shall cause the same to be published
in compliance with Division 3, Article II, Chapter 86 of the Azusa
Municipal Code.
