DISCUSSION
1. Existing site characteristics.
The subject property is a 751x290' level parcel developed with a single family
dwelling and detached garage. The two parcels included by the Planning Commission are
adjacent to the subject property on the west and lie within the boundaries of the Town
Centre Recevelopment area and are being used for parking in conjunction with the bank
located at the southeast corner of Third Avenue and IIH" Street.
2. Adjacent zoning and land use.

3. General Plan
The frontage along the east side of Third Avenue, south of IIHII Street is designated
on the Land Use Element of the General Plan for development as IIProfessional and Adminis-
trative Commercial II and the frontage along the south side of IIH" Street, east of Third
Avenue, is designated for IIHigh Density Residential (13-26 DU/acre)" development. The
subject property, as well as the additional two parcels, is located at a point where the
two land use designations meet and, therefore, can be considered consistent with the
General Plan if zoned either comercially or residentially.
.. 4. Transitional area.
The two lots recommended by the Planning Department and Planning Commission for
inclusion in the rezoning are, in effect, used comercially inasmuch as they form the
Form A-113 (Rev. 11/79)

parking lot for the bank on the corner. However, they are zoned R-3. The lot adjacent
on the east to the subject property was developed with an apartment complex in 1977.
Thus, the subject property is a transitional property which is suitable either for
commercial office use or multiple family development. Inasmuch as the owner also owns
the two lots on Third Avenue immediately south of the bank, which are also contiguous
with the subject property (in an "L" shaped configuration) and plans to develop the
three lots into a mid-rise office complex, it seems appropriate to zone the subject
property to C-OP. The C-O zone is the city's most restrictive commercial zone and allows
office and professional uses which are quite compatible with multiple family uses.
