        3841k

   8:00 P.M.

  B.  PUBLIC HEARING: AMENDMENT TO PLANNED DEVELOPMENT-11 (PD-
       11, FOOTHILL BOULEVARD, CRAIG AVENUE, AND WHITE STREET)
       ZONING DISTRICT
       Recommendation of City Manager: It is recommended that the City
       Council, following a public hearing:
       (1)    Approve the Initial Environmental Study as revised, the Mitigated
       Negative Declaration, and Mitigation Monitoring Program (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)    Find that the proposed amendments to the PD-11 are consistent with
       the policies and goals of the General Plan and the purposes of Title 17 as
       outlined in the body of the report;
       (4)    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);
       (5)    Approve the amendments to the PD-11 (Planned Development-11,
       Foothill Boulevard, Craig Avenue, and White Street) described in the body of
       the report (Attachment 4 of the agenda report);
       (6)    Direct the City Attorney to prepare an ordinance amending the PD-11
       (Planned Development-11, Foothill Boulevard, Craig Avenue, and White
       Street) district.
       Recommendation of Planning Commission: The Planning Commission
       reviewed the proposal at the July 14 and July 28, 2004 meetings. At the latter
       meeting, the Commission voted 7 to 1 to recommend denial of the proposed
       PD amendment.  As part of the amendment staff had recommended that self-
       storage use be permitted in the PD-11 district.  However the Commission
       requested that staff explore other options to consider the expansion as a non-
       conforming use.  While staff returned with an alternative, which involved a
       two-step process, the Commission ultimately recommended denial of the PD
       amendment.  Commission objections focused on the inappropriateness of the
       use for the area and its lack of benefits to the community in terms of jobs and
       revenues.
           The two-step process is consistent with Ordinance 6925 adopted by the
       City Council, in that it allows for expansion of existing self-storage facilities
       under the non-conforming provisions of the Zoning Code.  Under this
       process, the self-storage expansion will involve first a PD amendment to
       modify the PD site plan and then a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to review
       the expansion of the self-storage as a non-conforming use.  In essence, the
       use will remain as a non-conforming use.  The two-step process presented to
       the Commission is now staff's recommendation to the City Council.
       Recommendation of Design Commission: The Design Commission
       reviewed the proposed amendment at its meeting of July 12, 2004 and
       recommends City Council approval of the setbacks, heights, and other
       design-related standards for the PD-11 amendment and acknowledged that
       the proposed new construction, including architectural design will be reviewed
       by the Design Commission when the City receives applications to entitle the
       new construction.
