WHEREAS, at its October 3, 1990 meeting the Planning Commission

westerly 25 feet of the Southern Pacific right-of-way
from S-P Parking to Residential Low Density; and
WHEREAS, through its review of General Plan 2A-90, General Plan
Amendment 2B-90 and Zone Change 1-90, staff felt the
following concerns should be addressed:
1. In conjunction with the increase in lot size, each
individual property owner must be limited from
further subdivision of the property at some future
date.
2. The text of Sections 28-500 through 28-506 and
Sections 28-601 through 28-604 of the Code of the
citv of Seal Beach must be amended to provide
specific development standards for parcels B-1
through B-70. Such standards should include a
specific minimum lot size, density requirement,
parking requirements, setbacks and height
requirements; and
WHEREAS, staff has prepared an initial environmental assessment
and proposed Negative Declaration as required by the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Staff
received comments back from several governmental
entities, each expressing "no concern" with the
proposed project; and
WHEREAS, a duly noticed public hearing was held on December 5,
1990 to consider ZTA 7-901 and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission makes the following findings:
1. The proposed zoning Text Amendment and
accompanying Zone Change and General Plan
Amendments will not increase the number of lots
within the Surfs ide Colony. The affected lots are
presently utilizing the southerly 25 feet of the
S-P right-of-way for Residential Low Density uses,
namely detached garages and rear yards.
2. The proposal will not increase the density of
development within Surfside.
3. As conditioned by staff, the proposal will result
in a more orderly use of the affected lots.
