RESOLUTION P.C. NO. 83-11
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF
THE CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES RECOMMENDING
DENIAL OF GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT NO. 12 AND
RECOMMENDING CERTIFICATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL
IMPACT REPORT NO. 22.
WHEREAS, Bredero Hawthorne, Inc. , and J. Ray Construction Company
have requested a General Plan Amendment, and prepared an Environmental Impact
Report, which would amend the land use designation from Commercial to Residential
Multiple Family on a vacant site approximately seven hundred (700') feet south
and east of Hawthorne Boulevard and Palos Verdes Drive West.
WHEREAS, after public notice issued pursuant to the provisions of
the Government Code, public hearings were held on May 10, May 24, June 14,
July 12, and July 26, 1983, at which time all interested parties were given an
opportunity to be heard and present evidence.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF RANCHO PALOS
VERDES DOES HEREBY FIND, DETERMINE AND RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1: The City has limited commercial zone property. A change
in land use designation to residential would limit the possibility of future
sales tax and other revenues should the site be developed other than for
commercial use.
Section 2: The site is adjacent to an existing commercial center which
could utilize this property in an expansion program.
Section 3: The location of the proposed residential units in close
proximity to the existing Golden Cove Center would not be a desirable amenity for
residential occupants and would inhibit future commercial use.
Section 4: Environmental Impact Report No. 22 has been prepared for
a residential land use and a specific project design which was reviewed by the
Planning Commission and the Commission finds the Environmental Impact Report
prepared to be adequate.
Section 5: For the foregoing reasons, the Planning Commission of the
City of Rancho Palos Verdes recommends certification of Environmental Impact
Report No. 22 and recommends denial of General Plan Amendment No. 12.
APPROVED and ADOPTED this 9th day of August, 1983.
