Ordinance 2 3 O c Approving rezoning of 0.59 acres from
R-1 to R-2-P
SUBMITTED BY: Director of Planning e t'
REVIEWED BY: City Manager),^ /7 _ (4/5ths Vote: Yes No x )
This item involves the rezoning of a portion of five parcels located on the
northerly side of "D" Street, between Las Flores Drive and Minot Avenue, from
R-1 (single-family) to R-2-P (two family/precise plan). The request has been
privately initiated for the most westerly parcel , and City staff has expanded
the proposal to include the four adjacent parcels to the east.
The Environmental Review Coordinator has determined that the proposal is
• exempt from environmental review.
RECOMIENDATION: That Council concur with the recommendation of the Planning
Commission.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: On March 8, 1989, the Planning
Commission voted 7-0 to recommend that Council approve the rezoning in
accordance with Resolution PCZ-89-F.
DISCUSSION:
Adjacent zoning and land use.
North R-1 Single Family
South R-2-P Single & Two Family
East R-1 Single Family
Nest R-1 . Vacant
Existing site characteristics.
The 0.59 acres represents the northerly portion of five parcels which are
presently split-zoned between R-2-P on the south and R-1 on the north.
Topographically, the properties rise in elevation from south to north and from
west to east. The most westerly parcel is vacant. The other four parcels
contain single and two-family dwellings.

General plan.
The General Plan designates the area for Medium Density Residential (4-12
du/ac). Both the existing R-1 and proposed R-2-P zones are consistent with
this designation.
ANALYSIS:
The zone boundary in question has been in existence at least since 1949. At
that tine, the boundary followed the property line between two lots--the 0.59
acres in question was a single, long R-1 lot which extended between Las Flores
Drive and Minot Avenue, and all of the property south to "D" Street was a
single, large R-2 lot. In the interim, the two lots were combined and divided
from north to south into smaller parcels, split by the zone boundary, as they
are today.
The rezoning would adjust the zone boundary northward to again conform with
the property lines, and thereby rezone the northerly portions of the parcels
consistent with the predominant R-2-P zoning on the balance of the parcels.
In terms of density, the rezoning would increase somewhat the potential yield
on all of the developed lots, and would also specifically allow for the
construction of two units rather than one unit on the westerly, vacant
Balistrieri parcel .
The rezoning would increase somewhat the R-2 interface with R-1 properties •
directly to the west and east of the proposal area. The incursion is modest,
however, and should not result in any conflict with the single family areas.
Also, the precise plan requirement was specifically added to this R-2
neighborhood in recognition of the general R-1/R-2 interface, and to thereby
ensure a more sensitive and qualitative approach than is normally associated
with duplex development.
For these reasons, we recommend approval of the rezoning.
FISCAL IMPACT: Not applicable.
