Agenda Item A

A Consideration and possible action to conduct a public hearing to consider a\nZone Change and read by title only, waive further reading, and introduce\nOrdinance No. 1426 – An Ordinance changing the Zoning Designation from\nC-G (General Commercial) Zone to R-1 (Low Density Residential) Zone for\nproperties located at 10473, 10505, and 10511 Artesia Boulevard. [CITY]\nCEQA: The City reviewed the environmental impacts of the proposed Ordinance\npursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code\n§§ 21000, et seq. “CEQA”) and the regulations promulgated thereunder (14 Cal.\nCode of Regs. §§ 15000, et seq., the “CEQA Guidelines”). CEQA Guideline\n§ 15164 provides that an addendum to an adopted Negative Declaration may be\nprepared where none of the conditions described in CEQA Guidelines § 15162\nhave occurred. The proposed Ordinance is within the scope of the City’s General\nPlan Map update which was evaluated under a Negative Declaration (“ND”)\n(Attachment D) and will not result in substantial changes in the project requiring\nmajor revisions to the ND, substantial changes with respect to the circumstances\nunder which the ND was undertaken, and that there is no new information of\nsubstantial importance which was not known and could not have been known at\nthe time the ND was adopted. Accordingly, the Ordinance is not subject to further\nenvironmental review.\nRecommendation to City Council: 1) Open the public hearing; take testimonial and\ndocumentary evidence; and after considering the evidence, introduce Ordinance\nNo. 1426; or 2) Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item.
