THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SEAL BEACH DOES HEREBY
RESOLVE:
WHEREAS, on April 3, 1991, the Planning Commission was requested by several
property owners along Seal Beach Boulevard between Pacific Coast
Highway and Electric Avenue to re-institute hearings to allow for a
mixture of residential and commercial uses within the subject area. At the
present time the General Plan and the Code of the City of Seal Beach do
not allow for a mixed-use development of this nature. Staff was requested
to report back as to the current status of those previous studies and
reports and to indicate the necessary steps to re-institute consideration of
those previous proposals; and
WHEREAS, on April 17, 1991, the Planning Commission considered the report
prepared by staff, and received comments from four (4) persons relative to
this issue; and
WHEREAS, on June 5, 1991, the Planning Commission received and considered a staff
report regarding the establishment of a mixed-use zone and accompanying
development standards for the subject area; and
WHEREAS, on August 7, 1991, the Planning Commission considered a more detailed
staff report regarding the proposed General Plan amendments to the Land
Use and Housing Elements to establish the Limited Commercial (loC)
land use designation and set forth the area to be designated as such, the
proposed Zoning Ordinance Text Amendments to establish the Limited
Commercial (loC) Zone, and the proposed area of the zone change from
General Commercial (C-2) to Limited Commercial (loC)' At the
conclusion of consideration of this matter by the Planning Commission,
staff was directed to proceed with the scheduling of the necessary public
hearings; and
WHEREAS, the City is proposing to establish a Limited Commercial (loC) General
Plan land use designation and zoning designation and to change the zoning
of thirteen (13) lots from General Commercial, (C-2) to Limited
Commercial, (loC); and
WHEREAS, the subject area is described as the westerly side of Seal Beach Boulevard
between Landing Avenue and the northerly Electric Avenue alley, more
particularly de;c:il.ed as:
Lots 9, 11, 13, 15, !7, 19, 21, 23, 25, 27, 29, 31, 33, 35, ~'7, 39, 41, 43, 45,
47, 49, 51, 33, 55, 37, 59, and 61, in Block 218 of Tract 10, "Anaheim Bay
Tract", in the City of Seal Beach, County of Orange, State of California, as
per map recorded in Book 9, Page 10 of Miscellaneous Map, in the Office
of the County Recorder of Said County; aJ:d
WHEREAS, the subject area is comprised of thirteen (13) lots, encompassing an area of
69,907.5 square feet (1.60 acres). Presently, all thirteen (13) of the lots are
Resolution Number '//()!
designated in the General Plan for General Commercial purposes and are
zoned General Commercial, (C-2); and
WHEREAS, staff has prepared an initial environmental assessment and proposed
Negative Declaration as required by the California Environmental Quality
Act (CEQA); and .
WHEREAS, a duly noticed public hearing was held on November 6, 1991, and said
public hearing was continued to November 20, 1991 to consider General
Plan Amendment 2B-91; and
WHEREAS, the said Commission held said aforementioned Public Hearing; and
I
WHEREAS, at said public hearing there was oral testimony received from four (4)
persons in favor of the proposed General Plan Amendment by the
Planning Commission; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission made the following findings and approved the
subject General Plan Amendment on November 20,1991 by a 4-0-1 vote:
1. The proposed General Plan Amendments, Zoning Text
Amendments and Zone Change will provide a less intensive use
than is presently allowed under current General Plan and zoning
designations.
2. This proposal will result in completion of a city study which was
initiated in 1983 and adopted in 1986, but not finalized until
adoption of the proposed General Plan Amendments, Zoning Text
Amendments, and Zone Change.
3.
This proposal will encourage the establishment of new commercial,
service, institutional and office uses that do not attract large
volumes of traffic and continuous customer turnover.
I
4. This proposal will limit and discourage development of strip-type,
highway-oriented commercial uses that create traffic hazards and
congestion because they require numerous individual curb cuts and
generate higher traffic volumes.
5. This proposal will minimize visual and functional conflicts between
residential and nonresidential uses within and abutting the zone.
6. This proposal will encourage elimination of curb cuts for vehicular
access and promote more efficient and economical parking facilities,
utilizing both on-street parking, off-street parking and off-site
parking facilities.
7. This proposal will encourage uses that minimize noise and
congestion.
WHEREAS, the City Council noticed a public hearing on December 9, 1991; and
I
WHEREAS, the City Council received into evidence the Report of the Planning
Commission, including the Staff Report dated November 6, 1991, Planning
Commission Resolution's No. 1657 through 1660, and the Minutes of the
Planning Commission meeting of November 20, 1991. In addition, the City
Council considered all written and oral evidence presented at the time of
the public hearing; and
.
Resolution Number ~t)J
WHEREAS, at the conclusion of the public hearing, based upon the evidence presented,
the City Council determined to ADOPT Negative Declaration 8-91 and
approve Gel\eral Plan Amendment 2B-91.
NOW, TIIEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Seal
Beach does hereby approve General Plan Amendment 2B-91 as indicated below:
I
1)
The Housing Element Land Use Table, Commercial section, Is hereby amended to
read as follows:
"Proposed!
Develooed Undeveloped Total
Commercial
Limited
Commercial 1.6 0.0 1.6
Professional
Office 0.0 0.0 0.0
I Service 54.0 0.0 54.0
General 149.6 18.0 167.6"
NOW, TIIEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council hereby
finds and determines as follows:
1) This General Plan Amendment 2B-91 is effectively an amendment to the Land
Use Element and not to the Housing Element because the Housing Element
Land Use Table is merely a reproduction of the Land Use Element Land Use
Table; accordingly, this General Plan Amendment 2B-91 effects no amendment of
the Housing Element which requires review by the State Department of Housing
and Community Development.
2) That the amendment to the Land Use Element effected by General Plan
Amendment 2A-91 and reflected in this General Plan Amendment 2B-91
implements Housing Element policies 5.2.1.2(A), 5.2.1.2(F), and 5.2.1.(1) and is
therefore fully consistent with the existing goals and policies 'of the Housing
Element and serves to provide additional housing opportunities in the City.
