Proiect Characteristics: " The subject property contains a 1,551 sq. ft..one (1) story „ , � building on a 12,360 sq. ft. lot. Within the building, a ` smog facility, work area, and office is housed. The auto '. - use provides towing service. The parking area,,containing �.. six (6) parking spaces, is generally covered with vehicles `' awaiting repair or in storage. The site is enclosed with an eight foot {8') high wrought iron fence. The site has an approved landscape plan, however, landscaping has not been installed. � 8. Zoning Enforcement Histor� � The site has had a number of code violations cited against„ , it since October 1. 1990. Due to these violations, on , February 12, 1991, Staff informed the owner\applicant that � approval of a CUP was required to address the code , J { violations'and continue the use.

Consistencv with General Plan � � �. - The proposed land use is consistent�with the existing Zoning Classification (C-3) and General Plan designation of • Commercial. Therefore, maintaining Conditional Use'Permit No. 67, if conditions are met, will be in conformance with " and not adversely affect the General Plan: .� . � - f\planning\staffrpt\f:cup67r ' � _ �' � � ' � 2 ; '� � . � - . . . . . . ' . . . . 2. Site Suitabilitv • : . The property is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the.existing development relative to structures, parking, � . walls, fences, landscaping, driveways and other development features required by the Zoning Ordinance. 3. Compatibilitv The proposed development is'surrounded by commercial and residential uses. Residential uses exist to east of the � site and ars screened by the wrought iron fence and , separated from the site by a twenty (20') foot wide ally '. . running behind the site. Therefore, the project will be compatible with the surrounding land uses if conditions of - , CUP 67 are met. 4. Compliance with Develonment Standarda The proposal meets the development standards required by the -; Zoning Ordinance with respect to setbabks; lot coverage, . building height and density. However, the existing project does not meet the Conditional Use Permit requirements for . landscaping, limitations for vehicle storage, keeping parking area clear, visibility requirements, signage, and . conducting all automotive repair inside a building. � 5: Conditions of Approval � The Conditions of Approval under CUP 67 have still not been fu1Ty met. As of Staff inspection on July 10, 1995, issues .' regarding compliance are still unresolved. � , - In addition, the owner/applicant has not submitted a, landscape plan. o 6. Benefits to Communitv . The existing development, as operated, does not assist in ,. ` upgrading the surrounding area, and does not support the � , purpose and intent of the General Plan. ' 7. Environmental Assessment - .' Actions by a regu7atory agency to revoke"a permit are' ' '- categorically exempt under Section 15321 of the State CEQA Guideline_s. Therefore', a Notice of Exemption has been , . prepared and.fi,led with the County Clerk. 8.

DATE: July 11, 1995 TO: PLANNING COMMISSION FROM: Gary Chicots, Director Community Development Department SUBJECT: Zoning Ordinance Amendment ZOA 95-04, Modifications to • Permitted Locations for Automotive Uses and Addition of Two New Use Cateaories, "Minor Auto Servicina and Repair" and "Auto Tire Sales and' Service". Applicant: City of Lynwood � PROPOSAL The City of Lynwood is proposing to amend sections .of the Zoning -... Ordinance to add two new categories of permitted automotive related ' uses, defined as "Minor Auto Servicing and Repair" and "Auto Tire , Sales and Service", and to reduce the possible locations for new. major automotive repair, tire sales and other auto related businesses. . . FACTS ' �At its meeting of June 13, 1995, the Planning Commission directed staff'to evaluate the effectiveness of current Zoning Ord'inance provisions in regulating the location and number of auto repair ' facilities and other auto related uses. On July 05, 1995,.the City Council imposed a moratorium on all auto related uses until current regulations could be reviewed and recommendations presented to the Planning Commission and City Council. ANALYSIS The attached survey, based on issued business licenses, show that, � since 1991 there has been a slight decrease in used car sales lots, _ service stations and auto repair shops in Lynwood. There has been an increase in tire shops and auto supply stores. Overall, there has been a slight reduction in the total number of auto related uses in the City. However, as commercial rehabilitation.programs expand on arterial. streets and street trees and bus shelters are installed, the - adverse visual impact of existinq auto:uses becomes more apparent. ' Most new or rehabilitated auto uses that comply with current City standards seem to be acceptable. However, many older uses are poor housekeepers, are inadequately screened and have too many nori , conforming signs. In the:past few years, tlie City has: • ' • 1. adopted higher standards for new auto related deveTopment - 2. worked with certain property owners to rehabilitate or' improve the appearance of existing uses, 3. required improved signage on businesses that change ownership > � 4. increased enforcement conditions for those auto uses that have Conditional Use Permits. : In spite of these efforts, there is still a perception of "too many uses" and an over concentration of those uses on Atlantic Avenue and Long Beach Boulevard. The problem is mostly with existing uses that do not comply witch current standards. RECOMMENDATION In order to deal effectively with this problem, the City needs to establish a program that deals with all of the issues in a comprehensive, ongoing manner. Staff ie recommending the following : actions: 1 � ��, 1. minimize impact of new uses a. amend the Zoning Ordinance to restrict new auto uses to areas less visible and more suitable to heavy commercial uses (ordinance attached) b. rezone appropriate portions of commercial strips to zones that don't permit auto repair. b. investigate possible increased development standards 2. make existing uses comply with current standards a. continue Planning Commission review of compliance with conditions for those auto related uses that have Conditional Use Permits b. increase code enforcement investigation of auto related uses and Fire Department inspections c. investigate requiring a Conditional Use permit where there are serious ordinance or code violations, or making current standards retroactive d. require sign clearance upon business license renewal. PROPOSAL The next step in implementing the above recommendations is to amend the Zoning Ordinance to minimize the impact of new automotive uses. The attached table of existing auto related uses shows that our current ordinance allows almost all auto related uses in any C Zone. The attached ordinance amendment: 1. adds a definition of "Minor Auto Servicing and Repair". 2, adds "Minor Auto Servicing and Repair" as a permitted use in the C2-A and C-3 Zone ( in order to restrict the types of auto repair activity that can take place in those zones). 3. adds a definition of Auto Tire Sales and Service 4. adds "AUto Tire Sales and Service" as a permitted use in the C-3 Zone (in order to restrict this use to the heavy commercial zone only. 5. deletes Auto Repair as a permitted use in the C-2 and C2-A Zones 6. deletes Car Wash, Storage Garage, and Used Car Sales as Permitted Uses in the C-2 Zone. 7. deletes Tire Retreading as a permitted use in the C-2A Zone. These changes are summarized in the Table titled "Auto Related Uses - Proposed". At the next Planning Commission meeting, staff will prepare additional ordinance changes dealing with development standards and conditional use permits. Also staff will recommend areas to rezone to higher commercial zoning categories. Source of Authoritv: Section 25-27.2 of the Lynwood Zoning Ordinance states that a change in zoning regulations may be initiated by the Council, Planning Commission or City Manager. Property Impacts: This ordinance will affect property 2oned commercial, with primary impacts on the commercial corridors of Atlantic Avenue, Long Beach Boulevard, and Imperial Avenue. The removal of auto repair from the C-2 and C-2A zones as a permitted use and removal of other auto related uses from the C-2 and C-2A zones will probably create some legal non conforming uses. Legal non conforming uses can remain in operation, but cannot be rebuilt if over 50% destroyed, cannot be reestablished if they ceased operation for 90 days, and may be abated after l0 years. 2 I , ' ' a ° � . � Public Response:_ As of the writing of this report, staff has received no public ' inquiries regarding this matter. Environmental Assessment: Neqative Declaration � RECOMMENDATION: • Staff respectfully requests that after consideration, the Planning Commission adopt the attached Resolution No. 2554: • 1. Certifying that the project will not have a significant effect on the environment and that a Kegative Declaration has been issued pursuant to the provisions of the - California Environmental Quality Act and State CEQA � ' Guidelines. , 2.

The ordinance drafted by the City, Attorney contains a revision to Section 25-16.18 of this Zoning, ' ordinance which requires review and recommendation by the Planning : Commission. Facts• � � � Recently the City Council directed staff to restrict garage sales to one weekend per calendar guarter, as'a way of reducing the ' impact of such sales and to simplify their regulation. At their 'meeting of June 20, 1995, Council directed staff to process ' ' Ordinance and Code changes to carry out this directive. Discussion� Currently the .Code . permits two yard sales per year per person/address on any weekend provided the appropriate perinit fee is paid. Permitting yard sales once per .quarter has certain . benefits, but may poses some practical problems. Benefits 1. Would simplify enforcement on non sale weekends, since any ' sale would be illegal. 2. Would simplify enforcement and issuing license, since address , would not have to be checked for previous sales. 3. Might' encourage more block wide sales which promote more � cooperation and social contact, especially if some incentives �, were provided in the ordinance. , 4. would signifioantly reduce the number of yard sales on non sales weekends � • Problems 1. Would create a major problem for the License Collector 4 times ; " " per year, since most people will wait until the last Thursday to secure their license. This will, in turn, cause „ unnecessary delays at the license counter and may contribute , - to an already busy license division which also handles billing and fee collection. . 2. As currently proposed, would double the number of potential . - garage sales, since sales by any individual currently are ' ' ° limited to 2 per year. This would riow permit 4 per year_ -_.. 3. Would be difficult to enforce,license requirement, since there ' could be 300 or more sales on one weekend (the City has approximately. 1200 garage sales per year). The process of ' checking 300 sales in_order to find those without pertnits . could not be done in one day with two code enforcement , officers. . . ,. i, __ ' �� ^ A r .

A new paragraph g has been added which empowers the ' City Council, by resolution, to authorize sales of used personal property at such times, dates and locations as ' it may determine to be appropriate. , 3.

Ten � years seems to be a reasonable lifespan estimate for billboards.- The estimated cost was then converted to an annual cost. ESTIMATED ANNCJAL COST TO ENFORCE BILLBOARD RBCaIILATIONS (Annualized over 10 veare) � ` Billboard Inventory • $260 ' Inventozy Update 100 . Fee Collection 500 Abatement of Non- $5000/sign 10,000 , Conforming Signs � Code Enforcement 1�000 , - TOTAL 11,860 Spreading this cost over an estimated 70 legal non confonning billboards gives a cost of approximately $160 per billboard. ' If a buyout program were established to purchase one billboard : evexy two years, an additional annual cost of $40,000 to $50,000 would be incurred. This would amount to an additional $570 to $700 per billboard. , In many cases, planning and development fees and' charges are limited by State law to amounts not to exceed the cost of providing the service or issuing a permit. However; business license fees are considered revenue fees and do not-have to be limited to the cost of providing services. , + , . r f -. � ,` _�.� DATE: July 11, 1995 TO: PLANNING COMMISSION FROM: Gary Chicots, Director Community Development Department SUBJECT: Report on Selection of Consultant to Perform Mitigation Monitoring for CUP 154 (American Recycling Technologies) Attached is the staff report sent to the City Council concerning authorization to contract with a consultant to do the mitigation monitoring for CUP 154 (American Recycling Technologies).

That action was appealed to the Planning Commission by a neighbor. The Commission heard the appeal on January 10, 1995. As you will recall, the Commission upheld the approval by the Site Plan Review Committee, added additional conditions and directed staff to report back in 6 months on the status of applicant's compliance with conditions. Discussion• The City has received several complaints since the approval of SPR 119 alleging that the applicant had illegally dumped additional material on the site, had been operating the rock crusher late at night or early in the morning, was illegally parking trucks on the. roadway adjacent to the property, had removed one truckload of material from the site without wetting down the load, was operating without a business license and had made no progress in meeting the � Conditions of Approval for this use. An inspection by staff.on July 03, 1995 confirmed that additional material had been dumped on the lot (lumber and surplus pontoons), there was a truck at the site and a load of concrete was in the ' _ crusher. CONCLUSION• On the advice of the City Attorney it was determined that these � problems could best be resolved by the abatement process.
