AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF SANTA CLARITA AMENDING THE OFFICIAL ZONING HAP
(ZONE CHANGE CASE NO. 89-5)
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA CLARITA DOES HEREBY RESOLVE AS
FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. The City Council does hereby find and determine as follows:
a. Applications for Zone Change 89-5, Tentative Tract Map 47320, and
Conditional Use Permit 89-11 were filed at the City of Santa
Clarita by Lori Johnson on July 18, 1989. The applications relate
to approximately 5.87 acres currently developed with one residence
and equestrian structures and located east of Bouquet Canyon Road
at the easterly terminus of Urbandale Avenue. The purpose of the
applications is to subdivide the property into five (5) lots, four
(4) for single-family residences and one (1) condominium lot for
twenty (20) condominium units. The application also requests a
change in zone from A-2-2 to R-1-11,000 for the four single family
lots and R-2 (DP) for the condominium lot. The (DP) Development
Program overlay zone requires a conditional use permit. The
Assessor's Parcel Number for the site is 2849-004-010.
b. The Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing on the
applications on Tuesday, March 6, 1990. At that time, the Planning
Commission adopted Resolution No. P90-12 approving the tract map
and the conditional use permit and recommending approval to the
City Council of the requested zone change.
c. The City Council held a duly noticed public hearing to consider
this ordinance on Tuesday, April 24, 1990 at the City of Santa
Clarita City Council Chambers, 23920 Valencia Boulevard, Santa
Clarita, at 6:30 p.m.
SECTION 2. Based upon the testimony and other evidence received at the
public hearing, and upon studies and investigation made by the Planning
Commission and the City Council, and on their behalf, the City Council further
finds and determines as follows:
a. The City of Santa Clarita is proceeding in a timely fashion with
the preparation of a general plan. There is a reasonable
probability that this project will be consistent with the general
plan proposal currently being considered or studied, that there is
little or no probability of substantial detriment to or
interference with the future adopted general plan if the proposed
ordinance is ultimately inconsistent with that plan, and that the
proposed project complies with all other applicable requirements of
state law and local ordinances.
b. The recommended zone changes will not result in a significant
negative environmental effect.
c. The subject property is of a size and shape which lends itself to'
the proposed zone.
d. The proposed development is consistent with other zones in the
surrounding area.
e. The housing needs of the region were considered and balanced
against the public service needs of local residents.
f. The existing zoning is A-2-2. The revised zones for the project
are R-1-11,000 for the single family lots and R-2 (DP) for the
condominium portion of the project.
g. Implementation of this proposal will cause no adverse effects in
the environment which cannot be adequately mitigated through the
application of available controls. The change in zone will not
cause substantial environmental damage or substantial and avoidable
injury to fish or wild life or their habitat, since the project
site is not located in a significant ecological area.
h. There are no oak trees on the site.
i. Modified conditions warrant a revision from the existing A-2-2
(heavy agricultural) as it pertains to this area.
j. The proposed zoning of R-1-11,000 and R-2 (DP) is appropriate for
this area.
k. The subject site is a proper location for the proposed zoning
designations.
1. The placement of the proposed zones at this location will be in the
interest of public health, safety, and general welfare, and in
conformity with good zoning practice.
SECTION 3. In approving this ordinance, the City Council has
considered certain principles and standards, and finds and determines as
follows:
a. The requested change in zoning will not:
1. Adversely affect the health, peace, comfort, or welfare of
persons residing or working in the surrounding area; or
2. Be materially detrimental to the use, enjoyment or valuation of
property of other persons located in the vicinity of the
subject property; or
3. Jeopardize, endanger or otherwise constitute a menace to the
public health, safety or general welfare.
b. The proposed site is adequately served by highways or streets of
sufficient width and improved as necessary to carry the kind and
quantity of traffic such use would generate, and by other public or
private service facilities as are required.
SECTION 4. The City of Santa Clarita City Council has reviewed and
considered the environmental information contained in the Initial Study, which
was approved by the Planning Commission, and determines that it is in
compliance with CEQA and that the proposed project will not have a significant
impact on the environment. A mitigated negative declaration was prepared for
this project. Based upon the findings stated above, the City Council hereby
approves the mitigated negative declaration.
SECTION 5. Based upon the foregoing, the City Council does hereby
ordain that the application for a zone change from A-2-2 to R-1-11,000 and R-2
(DP) is approved. The zoning boundaries shall conform to the attached Exibit
"A", Tentative Tract Map 47320, with the single-family lots to be zoned R-1-
11,000 and the condominium portion of the project zoned R-2 (DP).
PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED this 8th day of May, 1990.
