II. Tentative Parcel Map:
� i
Chairperson Kanka opened the public hearing. I
Mr. Oskoui stated the dedication on tne northeast corner i
of Fracar and Imperial Highway is still needed for curb
returns.
�
, Mr. Clark said he needed clarification on several '
conditions required by the Public Works Department under
Ztem A'o. 5 on the list of conditions. The first states
"plant five parkway trees along Fracar Avenue, Imperial
Highway and Alexander Avenue". He wanted to know exactly �
what that meant. �
. � �
� Mr. Karefa-Johnson explained that meant that one tree
would have to be planted in the parkway on Ale�ander
Avenue, two trees would have to be planted on Imperial
Highway and two on Fracar Av�:nue. They should be planted
20' to 25' apart.
Mr. Clarke then questioned another condition, "replace
existing wooden pole with a marbelite street light with
underground services and conduits". He wanted to know
what kind of marbelite street light and how far the
underground conduit would be expected to extend.
Mr. Oskoui explained that Caltrans has specifications for
the marblelite street light, which should be Type 83,
and is just like others installed in the City. He
suggested that Mr. Clarke can give the specifications to
his electrician. Also, the underground services are
expected to extend no further for him than for anyone
else, just from a given post to a given post, as shown on
the map. l
Mr. Clarke asked an explanation of "construct a concrete j
alley approach, and sidewalk with wheelchair ramps at i
Alexander Avenue", He wanted to 4now why he has to i
construct an alley approa�h if the alley is to be i
vacated, and further s+.ated that there is only eight feet �
of alley t� consider. �
Mr. OsAaui said this condition is only if someone plans �
to use the alley for a driveway approach; otherwise, the �
alley could be put into sidewallc and curbs, and the �
condition amended to permit this. I
Mr. Clarke indicated he understood, and would follow, all I
the conditions as amended. �
�
Mr. Mike Ferguson wanted to be sure this construction f
wouldn't raise his taxes, he was assured that the church �
would pay all costs. Mr. Ferguson again asked about 'the I
same house and was again assured the house would not be (
changed in any way.
There being no further comments from the audience, �

REGULAR ORDER OF BUSINESS:
1. General Plan Annual Report
Mr. Karefa-Johnson stated that an annual report of the •
Lynwood General Plan is required by State law.
Commissioner Gilbert asked if we still have "P" zones,
and, if so, will we be able to get rid of them? Mr. j
Karefa-Johnson indicated that we still have "P" zones and �
will probably continue to do�so . ,
Mr. Mas said the land use designation must be �
reconsidered. He stated we must ask ourselves, how much �
growth do we want? How much groc:th is enough? There are
conflicts between residential and commercial Land uses I
and Land designations elements; therefore the land use (
element and the circulation elements mUSt be revised. �
In the past, land use was predicated on talcing land away �
from the size of lots,' which meant taking away the �
parkways, for the widening of streets. Once the freeway i
comes into being, the City must develop an arterial to
address the east/west traffic through the City south of �
Fernwood. 1
We must set up the frameworlc for staff to use to address (
the mandated elements. The attempt should be made to I
reduce the number of elements, while still adding two new i
elements to include Land Use Circulation, Housing, ,
Conservation, Open Space, Seismic Safety, Noise, Scenic
Highway and Safety, Economic Development, Recreation, and '
a Community Design Element: We should try to maintain the ,
integrity of individual components within the City. We '
must decide if we want a single downtown, which would '
entail moving the Civic Center to Long Beach Boulevard or '
leave things as they will be after the completion of the I
new freeway, with two centers of the City, one of which
is commercial (Long Beach Boulevard) and one governmental
(Bullis Road). �

past. Chairperson fianlca asked Dtr. Frye how many units he
has and he replied that he has and he four, with ei�ht

population to drop below self .sustaining
levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or
animal co�unity, reduce the number or re-
strict the range of a rare or endangered
, plant or animal or eliminate important ex-
amples of the major periods of California /
' history or prehistory? V
b. Does the project have the potential to
achieve short-term, to the disadvantage
of long-term, environmental goals? (A
short-term impact on the environment is
one which occure in a relatively brief,
definitive period of time while long-term
impacts will endure well into the future.) _�
' c. Does the project have impacts which are
individually limited, but cumulatively
cocisiderable? (A project may impact on
` two or more separate resources where the
impact on each resource is relatively
small, but where the effect of the total
. of those impacts on the environment is
significant.) �
d. Does the project have environmental effects
' which will cause substantial adverse effects
on human beings, either directly or �
indirectly?
III. DISCUSSION OF ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATION ,
IV. DETERMINATION ,
ON THE BASIS OF THIS ZNITIAL EVALUATION: '
/ / I find the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the
environment, and a NEGATI�IE DECLARATION will be prepared.
� /�/ I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect
on the environment, there will not be a significant effect in this case
because the mitigation measures described on an attached sheet have been
added to the project. A NEGATIVE DECLARATION WILL BE PREPARED.

E�PLANATION SHEET
lb. There will be 3isruption and displacement of so:i.l �
during the construction phase of the project. This
impact will be short-term in nature and cai� be
mitigated by limiting construction to hours :;s '
specified in the Lynwood Municipal Code.
le. There may be an increase in an erosion of the ;�oil
during the construction.phase. Again, this impact wi:l.].
' be short-term in nature. Mitigation measures incluae
the prompt planting of vegetation and proper wateii.n�
techniques to minimize dust and wind erosion.
3b. There may Ue a decrease in the amount of surface �aater
runoff because of the overcrowding of a portion oY the
parking lot with vegetation.
6a. Noise-related impacts are associated with constru�ci.o�:
activities; therefore, there will be a temoporar��
increa5e in eaisting noise levels during cl�e
construction phase.
The noise impacts are considered minor (i.e., not
significant). Many of the design measures contain::d
in the proposal, such as providing the.perimeter wall
will mitigate noise-related impacts.
7. A new building may create glare to motorists i�c
residents who live adjacent to the site. However,
this can Ue minimized by the use of less glass.
8. The present zoning of the site is R-3 (Multiple Fami1;A
Residential). The proposed use would be compatible
with the surrounding lan3 uses.
12. Project-related impacts on housing iriclude impacts on .
nearb,y residential uses. The wall abutting the
properties at the rear of the site will create visual
impacts for these residences. Design features ar�d
� other measures to limit activities at the site c.ill
mitigate . the potential impacts to less thar,
significant levels.
13. There will be an additional demand for parking as �s
result of this proposal. Tlie propoonent will U�:
required to accommodate the new units by
providing 12 off-street parking spaces. There iai.:11
not be a significant traffic impact in the area, in
that the surrounding land uses are high-densit�•
residential.
The roadway evaluated in the Negative Declaratioii i.s
Wright Road. The traffic-related impacts are oP
three types: {1) construction-related traffic; (21
automobile traffic related to operation of the nc�c:
building area; and (3) parking. The impacts evaluaci�d
in these areas are considered minor (i.e., �iui:
significant).

SliBJECT: The "Condit Bill" proposed legislation by
the State of California to lift bans on
simultaneous sale pf alcoholic beverages
and gasoline.
Comments: I I
The attached article illustrates that the issue of concurrent I
sale of alcoholic beverages and �
gasoline is still a current as I
caell as a controversial one.
9ssemblyman Gary A. Condit (D.-Ceres) is the author of a Bill �
which, if passe3, will take away the aut.hority of cities and ,'
counties to impose blanket bans on the sale of gasoline and �
alcoliol from the same outlets. An� ban enacted after August 1,
1985 would be nulliFied by the bill. �dhile the bi11 proposed b5-
Condit takes away tFie power of local �avernments to ban the !
concurrent sale of alcohol and gasoline, it funnels all �
decisions on such sales through the Conditional Use Permit I
process used by local governments, including the City of
Lynwood, in many zoning and land use decisions. I
i
The City of Lynwood has a ban on the concurrent sales of !
�asoline and alcoholic bevera�es (Chapter 25-16.17 of the �
Lpnwood Municipal Code). '
Passing of this Bill will mean that our City Ordinance will �
have to be amended to reflect deletion of the ban. �
Periodical amendments of Ordinances to reflect chan�es in j
society should be considered to be a normal activity•

would be more cumbersome and
time consuming than the enact-
ment of an outright ban. But he said
.any city or counly that wanted co .
prohibit all simultaneous sales of
alcohol arid gasoline could do so
under the bili simply by denying ,
every application.
"This bill would allow cities to do
exactly what they've been doing
except they have to do it through a
condilional use permit;' he said.
"The business community then
knows what the conditions aze.
They know what the rules aze." '
The conditional use-permit pro-
cess is being used with some suo-
cess by L.os Angeles to regulate
Iiquor stores in South-Central Los
• Angeles. Dis� Atty. Reiner and the
South-Central Organizing Com- �
miuee contend that the-prolifera-
tion of off-sale ouUets in chat part
of the city is a more serious
problem than gas stauons and
convenience stores tha[ sell both
gasoline and alcohol. Reiner and
the cocnmuni4Y Hroup favor the
Condit compromise because it
would leave their permit process
intact�
But city officials say that the
permit system is weaker, more
e�ensive and more time consum-
ing than adopting a Clanke[ prohi-
bition. The choice of whether to
issue permits or enact an outrigh[
ban should be left W elected city
councils.theysay
� •.Obviously, �the perntit process�
does nat accompliah the same ob-
jectiye, which is to substantiallY
reduce or eliminate the concurrent
sales of gasoline and alcohol;' said
pAan Rceder, city . manager ot
Costa Mesa. which last yeaz banned
all new joint-sale ouUets.
Glendale Councilwoman Brem-
berg added: "The conditional use
. Process is a cop-out to make it
sound like you've got home rule i
and you don't_"
Faced with Srow�ng opposition
W his bill. Condit has postponed a I
Capitol hearing scheduled tor.
TuesdaY so that he can mee[ with �
opponents and attempc to work ouc i
an accep�able solution.
