CITY CLERK OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM EXHIBIT A "Commercial-Recreation--The Commercial-Recreation category was adopted by the City in the 1960's to encourage commercial-recreation land uses primarily in the Disneyland area. Currently, in addition to the Disneyland area, the area around the Anaheim Stadium is also designed as Commercial-Recreation. This category is primarily implemented by the C-R, Commercial, Recreation Zone which is intended to provide for the development of businesses directly related to the recreation and entertainment industries providing services to the tourist. The Commercial-Recreation category is also implemented by The Disneyland Resort Specific Plan, which provides for the development of an approximate 489.7-acre international multi-day vacation destination resort including ongoing modifications to the Disneyland theme park, the development of a new theme park, additional hotels and entertainment areas, administrative office facilities, new public and private parking facilities, and an internal transportation system. This development is within five planning Districts (Theme Park, Hotel, Parking, Future Expansion and District A) and a C-R Overlay which allows development within the Overlay to either be consistent with the underlying Resort District or subject to the same land uses as in the C-R Zone. The Disneyland Resort Specific Plan also identifies maximum development density designations for hotel/motel development in the Hotel District (up to 5,600 hotel rooms for the entire District with up to 1,000 hotel rooms transferable to the Theme Park District), in District A (the maximum number of units permitted would be 75 hotel/motel rooms per gross acre or 75 hotel/motel rooms per parcel existing on June 29, 1993, whichever is greater) and the C-R Overlay (the maximum number of units permitted on a parcel would be the following: 1) for parcels designated Low Density - up to 50 hotel rooms per gross acre or 75 rooms, whichever is greater; and 2) for parcels designated Medium Density - up to 75 hotel rooms per gross acre or 75 rooms, whichever is greater; provided that for those parcels that are developed with hotel/motel rooms which exceed the maximum density designation, the number of rooms existing on the date of adoption of The Disneyland Resort Specific Plan Ordinance may be rebuilt or modified at their existing density.) It should be noted that accessory uses may be developed as well as other visitor-serving commercial/retail and restaurant uses along with these hotel/motel uses. ap2071~.wp -3- PC94-22
