CERTAIN FINDINGS IN CONNECTION THEREWITH.
(DEV2013- 00015)
(1807 —1855 WEST ORANGE AVENUE,
EXCLUDING A PORTION OF 1853 WEST ORANGE AVENUE)
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Anaheim (the "Planning
Commission ") did receive a verified petition for reclassification, designated as Reclassification
No. 2013- 00254, for that certain real property located at 1807 — 1855 West Orange Avenue,
excluding a portion of 1853 West Orange Avenue developed with a church, in the City of
Anaheim, County of Orange, State of California, as generally depicted on the map attached
hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by this reference (the "Property"); and
WHEREAS, the Property is currently developed with single - family residential
structures, a plant nursery, and a portion of the Orange Avenue Baptist Church parking lot and is
located in the "T" (Transition) Zone. The Anaheim General Plan designates this Property for
Low Density Residential land uses; and
WHEREAS, the applicant requests to rezone or reclassify the Property from the
"T" (Transition) Zone to the "RS -4" (Single - Family Residential) Zone; and
WHEREAS, Reclassification No. 2013 -00266 is proposed in conjunction with
Tentative Tract Map No. 17701 and Conditional Use Permit No. 2013 -05733 to establish a 37 -lot
residential subdivision with four (4) lettered lots to allow for the future development of 37
single - family homes on the Property (collectively referred to herein as the "Proposed Project");
and
WHEREAS, on July 28, 2014, the Planning Commission did hold a public
hearing at the Civic Center in the City of Anaheim, notice of said public hearing having been
duly given as required by law and in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 18.60
(Procedures) of the Anaheim Municipal Code (the "Code "), to hear and consider evidence for
and against the Proposed Project and to investigate and make findings and recommendations in
connection therewith; and
WHEREAS, by the adoption of a separate resolution concurrently with but prior in time
to this Resolution, this Planning Commission has heretofore found and determined, as the "lead
agency" under the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Section 21000
et seq.; herein referred to as "CEQA "), that, on the basis of a thorough review of the Proposed
Project and a Mitigated Negative Declaration prepared therefor, including the Mitigation
Monitoring Plan and the comments received to date and the responses prepared, the Proposed
Project will have a less than significant impact upon the environment with the implementation of
the conditions of approval and the mitigation measures adopted by the Planning Commission in
connection with Tentative Tract Map No. 17701 and Conditional Use Permit No. 2013- 05733;
and
- 1 - PC2014 -060
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission, after due inspection, investigation and
study made by itself and in its behalf, and after due consideration of all evidence and reports
offered at said hearing, does find and determine the following facts:
1. Reclassification of the Property from the "T" (Transition) Zone to the "RS -4"
(Single- Family Residential) Zone is consistent with the Property's existing Low Density
Residential land use designation in the General Plan.
2. The proposed reclassification of the Property is necessary and/or desirable
for the orderly and proper development of the community and is compatible with the adjacent
properties to the north which are designated for Low Density Residential land uses and are
developed with single family homes.
3. The proposed reclassification of the Property does properly relate to the zone
and its permitted uses locally established in close proximity to the Property and to the zones and
their permitted uses generally established throughout the community.
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission determines that the evidence in the record
constitutes substantial evidence to support the actions taken and the findings made in this
Resolution, that the facts stated in this Resolution are supported by substantial evidence in the
record, including testimony received at the public hearing, the staff presentations, the staff report
and all materials in the project files. There is no substantial evidence, nor are there other facts,
that detract from the findings made in this Resolution. The Planning Commission expressly
declares that it considered all evidence presented and reached these findings after due
consideration of all evidence presented to it.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that pursuant to the above findings,
this Planning Commission does hereby approve Reclassification No. 2014 -00266 to authorize an
amendment to the Zoning Map of the Anaheim Municipal Code to rezone and reclassify the
Property into the "RS -4" (Single - Family Residential) Zone and recommends that the City
Council adopt an ordinance reclassifying the Property in accordance with Reclassification No.
2014- 00266.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that this Resolution shall not constitute a
rezoning of, or a commitment by the City to rezone, the Property; any such rezoning shall require
an ordinance of the City Council, which shall be a legislative act, which may be approved or
denied by the City Council at its sole discretion.
