CT.Ow ATTACll'!E NT "A" PROPOSED REZONING REQUE ST SECTION l Curr ent Zoning: 1-1, Li ght Industrial Proposed Zoning: R-2, Hedium Den s'lty Res iden tial General Oescrl~tlon: Sect i on 1 is bo unded by the center! ine of I/est Dart m uth Av enue on the orth, Cinderella City 's North Parking 1 ot on the So uth , the AT & SF RR r i ght-of-way on the I/e st, and Cushing Park on th e East . Historical Background: Currently, t his property is zon ed 1-1 (Light In- dustrial). The reason for this zoning class i fication takes place pr ior to t he 1940 adoption of zoning laws by the City , at which time the Public Service Company 1 ocattd I subs ht I on on West Da rtmouth Avenue i n what is now the NorUust corner of Cushing Park. In addition, a cannery was located on the South side of West Oartllouth Avenue, next to the AT a SF railroad ri ght-of- w1y. Hence, the Industrial classification was applied t o this area (under the 1940 zoning laws) In order to permit the continued use of the substat ion and 'the cannery . · Rnsons for Ruonl 11 Th• City's 1979 C011prehe nsiv e Pla n recomm ended that the City purchue the f ve acre parcel that Is adjacent t o t he pa rk (which It has done) and provide additional recreation f 1~11it ies (pp . 64 -6). Further• more, the Comprehensive P11,1 outlines (pp . 82-84) the nee d for a more unifoni zoning policy within the tlty. Although the park i s all owed under the current 1-1 class i fication , part of this public facility 1s located in an R-2 {Medi um Density Residential) dis- trict. In light of this r eferen ce , it is rec ommended th at th e l·l zo ni ng clas sification be chang ed to R-2 (Me dium Density Res idential ), to confor m more appropriately with the surrounding resi de ntial an d recreati ona l charact•r of the area. Furthermore , the R-2 cla ssificati on wou l d pro vid e for mor e uni,"irm zoning within the City as outlined in the Comprehens iv e Plan. --DART MO UTH !// i ~ I t i-------..,.,.,.=-- Proposed R-2 :z .li 0 I a: I----__;' ~ 1 ! ~--........
