Calera Avenue (Case C-116 - J. H. Hedrick Co.). The Associate Planning Director addressed Council and reminded them they had requested, when the zone change was granted to Soelberg, to be advised as this property is developed, because one of the concerns expressed at the time rezoning was granted was that Council approve all precise plans for improvements on said property. He informed Council that one of Council's considerations was that a road extending northward from the subject property to Alosta Avenue would be made part of any precise plan and would become a dedicated street. The feeling of Council was that the road would follow and be adjacent to the westerly property line. However, there appears that there may be a problem due to the fact that Los Angeles County has jurisdiction over Alosta Avenue and it may not approve an exit onto Alosta Avenue at the location that this property line would afford. The County may require a more easterly exit, which would necessitate winding the street toward the middle of the C-2 property, north of the subject location. Council reaffirmed its feeling that the exit should be at the westerly boundary of the property. George Stimson, City Engineer, addressed Council and inquired as to whether it would be necessary for a left - turn pocket to be established for this new street, as traffic coming from the east would more likely turn left at Calera Avenue to gain entrance to the property. If the left -turn pocket were not needed, then the County may be more inclined to approve the westerly site for the street entrance onto Alosta Avenue. Council indicated that it would approve this compromise, if necessary to maintain the westerly exit site. No action taken by Council. An Ordinance was presented for second reading and adoption, amending Section 9207 of, and adding Sections 9223 thru 9223.5 to, the Municipal Code, establishing the "CBD" (Central Business District) Zone.
