opportunity to be heard, and did receive evidence and reports, and did consider the same; and
WHEREAS, the City Council, 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. That the "5 Points Neighborhood" and Area 1 is developed primarily with
single-family dwellings including some second units and granny units (which may or may not
conform with Code regulations), and some multiple-family units and vacant parcels.
2. That the Anaheim General Plan designates the properties within Area 1 for
General Commercial Land Uses but that a general plan amendment is pending in connection with
the Recommended Land Use Alternative of the General Plan Update, currently under
preparation, which will, if approved, designate the properties within Area 1 for Low Density
Residential Land Use; and that the proposed RS-5000 (Residential, Single-Family) zoning is
consistent with the density range for said land use designation.
3. That the proposed reclassification of subject properties is necessary and/or
desirable for the orderly and proper development of the community.
4. That the proposed reclassification of subject properties does properly relate to the
zones and their permitted uses locally established in close proximity to subject properties and to
the zones and their permitted uses generally established throughout the community.
5. That the proposed reduction in density of 12 units in Area 1 is consistent with the
General Plan as proposed to be amended, including the Housing Element, and that the remaining
sites identified in the Housing Element are adequate to accommodate the City's share of the
regional housing needs, as there will be no net loss of Housing Opportunity Sites resulting from
the proposed reclassification, as analyzed in paragraphs (17) through (21) of the Staff Report to
the Planning Commission dated November 17, 2003; and
WHEREAS, the City Council does find and determine that the Zoning Map
referred to in Title 18 of the Anaheim Municipal Code should be amended and that the property

incorporated in the zone and zones as hereinafter set forth.
