(The City Attorney felt that the flexibility and potential lack of uniformity within the Planned Community Zone would present legal problems. Consequently the City Attorney felt that rather than approve the PC, Planned Community Zone over an area, some existing ~ity of Anaheim zone would have to be applied to the specific areas proposed for development. As a resuit of that determination, it was the opinion of staff that the best way of handling this situation would ae to require a zoning plan or element whereby the developer wouid designate at the outset the City of Anaheim zoning that he intends to apply in implementing the planned community); and WNEREAS, the developers of Anaheim Hills propose the expansion of the boundaries of the planned community which has already been approved by the Planning Commission and City Council by adding an 18 acre parcel located west of the Lakeview development and south of the Parkview development as well as a 5.5 acre parcel located southwest of the Eastridge development and southeast of the La{:eside development; and WHEREAS, the City Planning Commission did hold a duly advertised public hearing in the City Hall in the City of Anaheim, on August 7 end 21, 1972 at 7:30 o'clock P.M., notice. of said public hearing having been duly given as required by law and in accordance with the provisions of the Anaheim ~ ~ Municipal Code, to hear and considar evidence for and agains~ said Amendment to the General Plar., and to investigate and make findings and recomrnendations in connection therewith, and WHEREAS, said 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 HEREBY FIND 1, That under the eristing Planned Community Zone, property owners and developers have the alternative of d~signating eir_her City of Anaheim zoning or having approval of specific site develop- ment standards for a particular phase or type of development within the planned community. 2, That in order to alleviate the legal concern expressed by the City Attorney and to comply with the language of a proposed amend- ment to the PC Zone, Anaheim Hills, Inc. submitted a zoning element which designates the City of Anaheim zoning that is to be employed in implementing the development of each of the specific areas within the planned community. 3, That Anaheim Hills, I~c., since the August 7, 1972 hearing, has submitted a revised Zoning Element which has reduced the proposed zoning from R-S-5000 to R-1, One Family Residential within the following areas: Area No. 3 within the Northridge development, the entire Eastridge development, and Area No. 2 of the Lakeside development. 4. Th ~iidence was presented at said hearings which justifies the C ~- anning Commission's recommending to the City Council the inc,~usion of a Zoning Element to designate the City of Anaheim zones which will be used in implementing the development of the specifir. planning areas within the planned community. ;, That rather than taking action cn the proposed amendments to the PC, Planned Community, Zone, the Planning Commission felt that additional consideration should be given to the subject and with- held final determination until a later date. 6. That the 23.5 acres proposed for inclusion into the planned commun;ty area would appear to be a lcgical extension of the existing 55Z-acre site since it is contiguous to said acreage. NOW, THEREFORE, BG IT RESOLVED that L•he Anaheim City Planning Commission does hereby adopt and recommend to the City Council adoption of the Zoning Element - Exhibit No. 12, and the revised Land Use and Density Element - Exhibit No. 11, Revision No. 1, on the basis of the foregoing findings.
