  C.  PUBLIC HEARING: PROPOSED PLANNED DEVELOPMENT, ZONE
       CHANGE, AND SUBDIVISION TO CONSTRUCT 35 SINGLE-FAMILY
       RESIDENCES LOCATED AT 1000 ROSE AVENUE
       Recommendation of City Manager: 
       (1) Approve the Initial Environmental Study and Mitigated Negative
       Declaration (Attachment 1 of the agenda report);
       (2) Approve the De Minimis Impact Finding on the State Fish and Wildlife
       Habitat (Attachment 2 of the agenda report);
       (3) Adopt the findings that the zone change from RS-1 (one unit per acre) to
       Planned Development (PD) are consistent with the goals and objectives of
       the General Plan and the purposes of Title 17 as outlined in the body of the
       agenda report;
       (4) Approve the Zone Change from RS-1 to Planned Development-32,
       Rose Avenue (PD-32, Rose Avenue), and approve the recommended
       development standards (Attachment 6 of the agenda report);
       (5) Direct the City Clerk to file a Notice of Determination and a Certificate of
       Fee Exemption for the California Department of Fish and Game with the
       Los Angeles County Recorder (Attachment 3 of the agenda report);
       (6) Adopt and approve the findings for the Vesting Tentative Tract Map
       No. 53880 (Attachment 7 of the agenda report); and
       (7) Direct the City Attorney to prepare an ordinance amending the official

       Pasadena Municipal Code for the zone change from RS-1 (one unit per acre)
       to Planned Development-32 (PD-32).
       Recommendation of Planning Commission: On July 26, 2006, the
       Planning Commission unanimously recommended approval of the Planned
       Development, Zone Change, and Subdivision (Vesting Tentative Tract Map),
       and adopted the staff recommendations listed above.  The Commission
       recommended the adoption of the development standards proposed by staff
       with modifications including an adjustment to Floor Area Ratio, addition of
       yard encroachments and accessory structures, sidewalk widths, the project
       entry to be improved as a proper street as opposed to a curb cut, and
       addition of street trees along Rose Avenue.  Further, the Planning
       Commission recommended that the Housing Division work with the developer
       to find and produce affordable housing as opposed to paying the in-lieu
       Inclusionary fee.  In general, the Planning Commission incorporated all of the
       Design Commission's comments on the project site design and aesthetics.
         The Commission further recommended that the Initial Environmental Study
       be approved with the understanding that it is based on the Memorandum of
       Understanding between the City and the Pasadena Unified School District to
       implement the Pasadena High School Traffic Improvements Program
       identified in the Traffic Improvement Consolidated Report, dated July 2006. 
       The Initial Environmental Study cites the conceptual approval of the
       Pasadena High School Traffic Improvement Program.
         The Planning Commission's recommended modifications have been
       incorporated into the proposed Development Standards, with the exception of
       one recommendation.   Condition No. 27, regarding the project entry must be
       improved as private driveways to reinforce to subdivision residents and the
       public that the development is in a private area, as opposed to the Planning
       Commission's recommendation to improve as a proper street.
       Recommendation of Design Commission:   On July 26, 2006, the Design
       Commission conducted an advisory review of the project.  The Commission
       made the following comments on the site design and aesthetics:
           The development should not be a gated community.  (Developer does
           not intend to gate the subdivision, a condition of approval has been
           added accordingly.)
               The entries to the project should be defined as a proper street rather
               than a curb cut (discussed above).
           Front-facing garages should be minimized as much as possible.  (There
           has been an adjustment.)
           Maximize more on-street parking on Street A and reorganize the curb
           line bump outs to be more flowing, to undulate more naturally, and to be
           less arbitrary.
       Other comments:
           Areas of concern are sidewalks, guest parking, and insufficient
           community space amenities.
           Some variation in plan (such as double-up driveways; through-block
           passageway) may create more interest.
           Some units on Street A could be rearranged to accommodate guest
           parking.
       The applicant has agreed to explore the other comments provided above by
       the Design Commission.  A condition of approval has been added that the
       applicant shall submit a preliminary plan which attempts to examine these
       areas of concern.

       (4) Adopt the findings that the proposed Zone Change is consistent with the
       Zoning Code and approve a Zoning Map Amendment from PS (Public and
       Semi-Public) to RS-2-HD (Single-Family Residential/2 du/net acre-Hillside
       District Overlay) (Attachment A of the agenda report);
       (5) Adopt findings that the variance for lot width submitted with the revised
       parcel map application, that there are exceptional circumstances and
       conditions applicable to the subject site that do not apply generally to sites in
       the same zoning district; and approve the variance for lot width (Attachment A
       of the agenda report);                                
       (6) Find that the proposed two-parcel subdivision is consistent with the
       goals, objectives, policies, and land uses of the general plan and the
       Pasadena Municipal Code Titles 16 and 17, and approve the proposed
       subdivision and conditions;
       (7) Direct the City Attorney to prepare a resolution amending the official
       Land Use Diagram established by Section 2.105.110 of the Pasadena
       Municipal Code for the General Plan amendment from Institutional to Low-
       Density Residential (0-6 du/acre); and
       (8) Direct the City Attorney to prepare an ordinance to change the existing
       zoning from PS (Public/Semi-Public District) to RS-2-HD (Single-family
       Residential/2 du/net acre-Hillside District Overlay) within 60 days.
       Recommendation of Planning Commission: On January 25, 2006, the
       Planning Commission recommended that the City Council 1) adopt the staff
       recommendations on the environmental analysis and the General Plan,
       Zoning Map Amendments; and deny the variance for lot width; and 2) deny
       both proposals to subdivide the property.  The applicant was not asked to
       return to the Planning Commission with additional information.  However,
       since the public hearing, the applicant has developed a potential
       development concept, including footprints, to facilitate discussion of the
       proposed subdivision.
       Recommendation of Historic Preservation Commission: On     
       November 7, 2005, the Historic Preservation Commission 1) acknowledged
       that the proposed project would maintain the Charles Richter Laboratory and
       garage; 2) found that the proposed General Plan, Zoning Map Amendments
       and two-parcel subdivision would not result in an adverse impact to the
       historic resources on site; and 3) recommended approval of the proposed
       General Plan and Zoning Map Amendments.
