The applicant is also requesting approval of a Zone Change to reclassify two (2) parcels from R-1 (Single-Family Residential) and fro'm R-3 (Multiple-Family Residential) to C-2A (Medium Commercial), in order to construct a convenience store/market and parking. Facts ' 1. Prouerty Location The subject ,parcel consists of two residential lots located on the west side of Lewis Street at the northerly terminus of Lewis Street adjacent to the Century (I-105) Freeway and at the northwest corner of Louise Street and Lewis Street. The subject parcel immediately adjoin an existing commercial center located at 11538-50 Long Beach Boulevard. 2. Property Size The subject property is approximately 1.25 acres in size including the commercial center properties located along Long Beach Boulevard adjacent to the parcels proposed for rezoning. 3. Existin� Land Use The existing commercial lots located at the northeast corner of Louise Street and Long Beach Boulevard are zoned C-2A, (Medium Commercial) and are developed with an existing dry cleaning plant (6,147 square feet) and coin laundry (7,010 square feet) and � service station. The property north of the westerly terminus of Lynwood Road and abutting the Century (105) Freeway right-of-way is developed with a single-family dwelling (to be demolished) and ' is zoned C-2A (Medium Commercial). The residential lot at the northerly terminus of Lewis Street and abutting the freeway right-of-way, which is proposed to be developed with a portion of the grocery market, is vacant and is zoned R-1 (Single-Family Residential). The lot located at the northwest corner of Louise Street and Lewis Street and proposed for a commercial parking lot is developed with a single-family - residence and is zoned R-3 (Multiple Family Residential). The surrounding land uses are as follows: North - Century (I-105) Freeway - South - Single Family Residential East - Commercial ' West - Commercial ' DISK 30:88030ZC 1 ; , 4.' Land Use Designation The General Plan designation for the commeroial properties fronting on Long Beach Boulevard is Commercial. The General Plan designation for the residential lots proposed for the convenience store/market and commercial parking is Single-Family Residential. The surrounding land use designations are as follows: North - Commercial (C-2A) East - Single Family (R-1) - South - Commercial (C-2A) West - Commercial (C-2A) 5. Pro.iect Characteristics The applicant proposes to construct a 7,200 square foot - convenience store/market as an expansion to an existing commercial center. The applicant also proposes to establish a commercial parking lot at the northwest carner of Louise Street -. and Lewis Street consisting of 23 parlcing spaces (10 compact). The lot is currently zoned R-3 and is developed with a single- family residence. The existing and proposed uses and the required parking are as follows: Required Use Area Ratio Parking Dry Cleaning Plant 6147 sq. ft. 1/400 15 Coin Laundry 7010 sq. ft. 1/400 17 � Proposed Market 7200 sq. ft. 1/300 24 . Total: . 56 A total of fifty-four (54) spaces (16 compact) are proposed to serve the existing and proposed uses on the property. Primary vehicular access would be provided from three (3) driveways along Long Beach Boulevard and from a 32-foot radius cul-de-sac extending into the property from Lynwood Road. Access to the proposed commercial parking lot at the northwest corner of ' Louise Street and Lewis Street would be from two (2) new � driveways located on Louise Street. Landscaping proposed for the ! property equals approximately 1,711 square feet 7% of all parking � areas. � I 6. Site Plan Review I i The Site Plan Review Committee reviewed the proposed project at I its regular meetings on May 17, 1988, May 31, 1988, and June 16, � 1988. The �applicant submitted a number of revisions to his i plans to the Site Plan Review Committee for its review and i comment. I . � A major concern with the proposed project addressed by the Site I Plan Review Committee focused on Lynwood Road which terminates in I a cul-de-sac on the subject property. The applicant submitted i various designs for the cu2-de-sac including a sub-standard � circular cul-de-sac and hammerhead turnaround. Lynwood Road i currently terminates on the property in a large, modified cul- de-sac which was constructed by Cal-Trans as,a result of the I alignment of the Century (I-105) Freeway. - � � - , � � DISK 30:88030ZC � t � I 2 � I � � The applicant is proposing to remove the existing cul-de-sac on the property and replace it with a standard 32-foot radius cul- de-sac. Entrance to the property from the cul-de-sac would be via two (2) 26-foot wide driveways. A two-foot high block wall would enclose the cul-de-sac except at the driveway locations. The applicant is also dedicating five (5) feet of frontage along Louise Street and Lewis Street, and ten (10) feet of frontage along Long Beach Boulevard for street Widening purposes. The Public Works Division has accepted the design of the proposed cul-de-sac. However, the Public Works Division has expressed concern over access to the property from Lynwood Road and the potential for automobiles to use the property as a si�ort cut for access to the east bound on-ramp of the Century (I-105) Freeway. Another major issue which was identified regarding the development proposal centered on the applicant's request to rezone two (2) lots from residential to commercial to accommodate the proposed market and required parking. Staff indicated to the applicant that it would not be desirable to permit commercial uses to encroach into an established residential area. 7. Public Response As of the date of preparation of this report the Planning Division has not received any public response with regard to subject proposal. , 8. Zoning Enforcement History �i None of record. � � ANALYSIS AND CONCLUSZON � 1. Consistenc.y with General Plan � � � The proposed development is not in compliance with the permitted i land uses as contained in the Zoning Ordinance. The proposed � development also does not conform with the existing General Plan , designations for the property. As previously mentioned, the � applicant is requesting approval of a General Plan Amendment and � Zone Change to permit the proposed grocery market and required � parking to be lacated on residentially zoned parcels. I The proposed development would allow the encroachment of � commercial uses into an established residential area. Also, + adequate buffers between the expanded commercial uses and � existing residential neighborhood are not being provided � in the development proposal. A more desireable alternative � would be to redesignate all of the properties west of Lewis ' Street for commercial land uses and redevelop the property with I a larger-scale commercial center; Therefore creating a better i buffer between the commercial uses fronting Long Beach Boulevard � and the adjacent residential residential neighborhood east of I Lewis Street. � i I i 2. Consistency with Redevelooment Plan � I The proposed development is not consistent with the Redevelopment , Plan. The Redevelopment Plan encourages, the development of properties in a manner which is consistent with the City's � General plan and which results in the elimination of blighted conditions on the properties located in the Redevelopment Project Area. As previously mentioned, the proposed development is not consistent with the General Plan. Also, the applicant has ; not presented a plan for substantially upgrading the existing , buildings on the property. DISK 30:88030ZC ' 3 i � I i i � • The Redevelopment Plan also encou'rages the development of commercial centers along major arterial highways that can take full advantage of access and visibility, especially when such properties adjoin freeway rights-of-ways. A more ambitious and desirable development proposal for this property would include either a major commercial shopping center, motel/hotel, or any other freeway-oriented uses. 3. Site Suitability The property is not adequate in size or shape to accommodate the proposed development relative to structures, parking (56 spaces required; 54 spaces proposed), driveways and other development features required by the Zoning Ordinance. Of particular concern is the proliferation of driveways proposed to serve the property, access to and over the property from the Lynwood Road cul-de-sac, and inadequate maneuvering space in the parking areas. 4. Compliance with Development Standards The proposed project generally meets all of the Developmen£ Standards of the Zoning Ordinance with the exception of the i required nvmber of parking spaces (56 spaces required; 54 spaces proposed), the existing service station canopy which will project into the new right-of-way (after dedication) along Long Beach Boulevard, and shallow maneuvering space in the parking areas adjoining the Lynwood Road cul-de-sac and in the parking area proposed at the northwest corner of Louise Street and Lewis Street. The proposed development does not conform with Redevelopment Guidelines for the Redevelopment Project Area which call for . consistency in,building design and uniform signage. 5. Conditions of Approval ' No Conditions of Approval are suggested at this time. 6. Benefits to Communitv . The proposed development wo�ld be of marginal benefit to the community by offering a grocery store to nearby residents. Of greater concern is the detriment it would cause by permitting commercial uses to encroach into a residential area without adequate buffering. Also, the proposed development will not ' sUbstantially alter or upgrade the appearance of the property along 'one of the major arterials in the City (Long Beach Boulevard). Furthermore, the proposed development would be inconsistent with both the City's General Plan and Redevelopment Plan. 7. Environmental Assessment � Staf£ has found that no substantial environmental impact will result from the proposed development; therefore, a Negative Declaration has been prepared and is on file in the Community Development Department and the Office of the City Clerk.

A six (6') foot high block wall will be constructed along the perimeter of the lot, except in the twenty (20') feet front yard setback in which the wall, if built, will not exceed four (4') feet in height. _ The site plan shows that 31°sof the lot will be landscaped. 7. Site Plan Review On June 16, 1988, the Site Plan Review Committee evaluated the proposed development and recommended approval by the Planning Commission, subject to specific conditions. 8. Zoning Enforcement Historv .. None of record. 9. Public Response A letter from the Lynwood Unified School District was received � in the Planning Division regarding the proposed development.

Consistencv with General Plan � The proposed land use is consistent with the existing zoning � classification (R-3) and the General Plan designation (Multiple- � Family). Therefore, the granting of the Conditional Use Permit I No. 88041 will not adversely affect the General Plan, j 2. Site Suitabilitv ! i i The subject property is adequate in size and shape to accomodate the proposed development relative to proposed density, bulk of � the structures, parking, wall fences, driveways and other � development features required by the Zoninq Ordinance. Furthermore, the subject property is adequately served with the � required public utilities and offers adequate vehicular and � pedestrian accessibility. 3. Compliance with Development Standards ; The proposed development meets all the Development Standards ' required by the zoning Ordinance regarding off-street. parking; i front, side, and rear yard setbacks; lot coverage, building ' height; unit size; and density. , ! ; i DISK 29:88041CUP � i i I I � � � f � � � ' 4. Compatibility � The proposed development is surrounded by multiple family residential and manufacturing land uses; therefore, the project will be compatible with current and future development in the area. The base density within the R-3 zone (18 units per acre) would allow the development of four (4) units on the property; however, with the 25a density bonus for low and moderate income housing, the developer is able to build an additional dwelling unit. 5. Conditions of Approval The improvements as proposed, subject to the conditions recommended by the Site Plan Review Committee, will not have a negative effect on the values of the surrounding properties or interfere with or endanger the public health, safety or welfare. 6. Benefits to Communitv The proposed development will aid in aesthetically upgrading the neighborhood and will add favorably to the City's housing stock. 7.

Mas, Director Community Development Department SUBJECT: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT - CASE NO. 88042 � Applicant(s): Jose Rodriquez/Sergio Lopez Proposal• The applicant is requesting approval of a Conditional Use Permit to build four (4) apartment units at the rear of an existing single-family home, 11230 Louise Avenue, Lynwood, CA. The total number of units to be maintained on the parcels is five (5).. Facts 1. Source of Authority Section 25-4.5 of the Lynwood Zoning Ordinance requires that a Conditional Use Permit be obtained for any residential development in the R-3 zone. ' 2. Property Location The subject property is located on the east side of Louise Avenue between Beechwood and Sanborn Avenues (Refer to attached Location Map). � 3. Property Size The subject site is a 200' by 60' foot lot with approximately 12,000 square feet.. - 4. Existing Land Use The subject property is developed with a single-family dwelling. - The surrounding land uses are as follows: North - Duplex East - Multiple Family - South - Single Family West - Elementary School 5. Land Use DescriAtion The General Plan designation for the subject property is Multi- Family, while the zoning classification is high density residential (R-3). The surrounding land use descriptions are as follows: DISK 30:88042CUP 1 , � :;, General Plan: Zoning: North - Multi-Family North - R-3 South - M�lti-Family South - R-3 East - Multi-Family East - R-3 West - Public West - P 6. Pro,iect Characteristics: The proposed project calls for the development of four (4) two- bedroom, one (1) bath units in one (1), two (2) story building. An existing single-family home will be maintained on the parcel. The four (4) units will be built on the second floor above carports on the first floor. There are nine (9) carport parking spaces, and one (1) open air parking space. In addition, the proposal includes a laundry room, storage room, and tool room. A six foot (6') block wall will be built on the perimeter of the lot, except in the twenty-eight (28'j foot front yard setback area. " 7. Site Plan Review On June 16, 1988, the Site Plan Review Committee evaluated the proposed development and recommended approval by the Planning - Commission, subject to specific conditions. 8. Zoning Enforcement History None of record. 9. Public Response ' A letter from the Lynwood Unified School District was received in the Planning Division. A copy of the letter is attached. ANALYSIS AND CONCLUSION 1. Consistency with General Plan The proposed project is consistent with the existing zoning classification (R-3) and the General Plan designation (Multiple- Family), as well as the intent of the General Plan. The predominate land use in the neighborhood is single-family residential. However, the area is undergoing a transition from one and two single-family homes on a lot to multi,ple-family development. To date, there are only seven multiple family complexes in the neighborhood -- two are occupied, three (3) are nearly complete, while one is currently under construction. Each project consists of four (4) to fifteen (15) units. Because of regulatory and economic pressures, there is evidence that land in the subject neighborhood is actively being sought for development. The transition from a single-family neighborhood to multiple-family is already in progress. Under the current Zoning Ordinance, multiple-family residential areas can accommodate up to eighteen (18) units per acre. For the subject site, this is equivalent to 4.95 units. With 25� density bonus allowed by State Law, the applicant may be allowed up to 6.2 units. DISK 30:88042CUP 2 ¢s �;; �� _. . The proposal calls for the development of four (4) units in addition to the existing single family dwelling for a total, and five (5) units on site. That is 1.0% above the basic density under the General Plan and 18% below that allowed on site with a density bonus provided by state mandate. ' 2. Site Suitability _ The subject property is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the :proposed development, but the arrangement of the structures on the parcel, with the given number of units, does - not optimize the use for the open space. In addition, staff finds that family units should have direct access to open space areas, if possible, to make visual supervision from inside the �nits possible. Staff also finds that, to the maximum extent possible, there should be a separation of vehicular and pedestrian play activity areas. The subject site has 28.5� of the site in landscaped open space; that is 3.5% more than required. Zn addition, the existing front yard setback area is 28 feet, only 20 feet is required. The subject property is adequately served with the required public utilities and offers adequate vehicular and pedestrian - accessability. Zn addition, Louise Avenue is sixty (60') feet wide, a standard width, and is sufficient for carrying the required traffic volume that would be generated by the proposed use. Louise Avenue is also sufficient width to allow parking on both sides of the street. 3. Compliance with Development Standards The proposed development meets all the standards required by the Zoning Ordinance regarding off-street parking; front, side and rear yard setbacks; distance between structures; lot coverage; building height; unit size; landscaping; and density. The development standards are adequate to protect the adjacent residential uses. 4. Conditions of Approval The improvements as proposed, subject to the conditions - recommended by the Site Plan Review Committee, will not have a negative effect on the values of the surrounding properties or interfere with or endanger the public health, safety, convenience, or welfare. 5. Benefits to Communitv The proposed development, with the conditions stated in the subject resolution, will aid in sesthetically upgrading the neighborhood and will act as a catalyst in fostering other quality developments in the area. Furthermore, the development will add favorably to the City's housing stock and will provide additional affordably-priced housing in furtherance of the policies of the Housing Element of the General Plan. - DISK 30:88042CUP 3 �' 6. Environmental Assessment Staff has found that no substantial environmental impact will result from the project; therefore, a Negative Declaration has been prepared, and is on file in the Community Development _ Department and the office of the City Clerk.

Mr. Garcia said that Mr. Rodriquez will accept all conditions and presented a copy of the plans to the ' Commissioners, who all examined them, in return. Chairperson Kanka asked if anyone else wished to speak for the proposed business, there being no one, she asked if anyone wished to speak against the proposed business. Robert Frye, 12501 Alpine, Lynwood, stated that 12519 Long Beach Boulevard is very close to his home, and that the transmission shop located next to 12519 Long Beach Boulevard is in horrible condition, one of the worst looking spots in Lynwood. The building at 12519 Long Beach Boulevard is now a nice looking building and Mr. Frye is positive that if it is used as a tire and automobile repair shop, it will soon look as terrible as the transmission shop next door to it. This deterioration will decrease the value.of residential areas nearby and he hates to see the value of his property go down any further than it has I already.

Mr. Kirby suggested allowing high density from 27 units to as many as 70 units per acre. He said Paramount is now "developed out." He was particularly interested in vacant property near Kinney's Shoe Store in Lynwood. Joe Wang discussed the relationships between high density and usage of sewer, water and traffic flows. Mr. Wang and the City of Lynwood now has no water problems, but it should be remembered that the Metropolitan Water District does not have unlimited water to sell. Mr. Wang stated that our present storm drain service was built in the 1950's and is undersized, and that's why we have flooding during the rainy season. In a 100- year flood, probably one-half of Lynwood would have flood of one foot, enough to damage rugs, but not enough to totally ruin homes. This possibility must be addressed, Mr. Wang said, regardless of the amount of.development in Lynwood. Mr. Wang stated that Lynwoad traffic volume hasn't increased very much in the last 6-7 years. The problem in Lynwood 'isn't traffic, Mr. Wang said, but parking. It is Mr. Wang's opinion that on-site parlcing should be required. He expects the I-105 Freeway to .reduce traffic on Imperial Highway. However, he anticipates an increase in traffic on Long Beach Boulevard because of the on/off ramps to be located there. 2. "The Role of the Plannin� Commission in Land Use Plannin� " A. The Role of the Planning CCommission in Land Use I Determination.. B. State Planning and Zoning Law. I I Dean Sherer, Planning Consultant, Willdan & Associates said he I would like to have several workshops with the Commission, as there is a need for consistency in its action. Mr. Sherer I presented each Commissioner with two books, Job oP Planninu I Commission. by Albert Solnit, and Citizen's Guide to Plannin� by Herbert H. Smith. i Mr. Sherer, . along with Deputy City Attorney Barnes, discussed � local laws and excerpts of the state planning laws, The ' consultant continued by explaining the Commission's duty with I respect to administering the General Plan. Mr. Sherer said it is important that the Commission understand the needs and desires of the community, in view of the fact that the General � Plan will be updated very soon. , i Commissioner Cole-Dennis asked when does a citizen of the j community become a developer. I � DISK 30:PCO52488 I � � � 3 ' I I . � I � I I Mr. Sherer responded that anyone in the city wishing to improve his property, even as little as adding one bedroom, is a developer. He said that people consider development of their property as a"right," but it is really a"privilege." The consultant said it is immportant for the Commission to consider the reasonableness of conditions imposed upon developers. Mr. Barnes interjected that the people who come before the Commission are not the ones who want to add a bedroom or a garage. The people the Commissioners see are the bigger developers and the Commission should sim at protecting the "general" welfare of the City's citizens. Mr. Barnes said there should be a definite linkage -- "nexus" -- between requirements imposed and what is actually being done, he added. C. Legal Authority of the Planning Commission The consultant said there is a presumption of validity inherent in zoning ordinances. He commented that the developer must . prove something is wrong with any condition imposed by the Commission. There are instances where a developer might believe the City is "taking" his property, if the conditions are not reasonable. Mr. Barnes briefed the Commi'ssion on the recent landmark decisions with respect to land use issues. STAFF COMMENTS Because of the lateness of the hour, it was decided that the workshop would be continued at another time. However, no definite time was established for the next workshop. The Commissioners expressed approval of the form and content of the workshop. It was suggested that the next workshop should not include any other items I i for consideration. I , Mr. Barnes suggested that the Commission might want to consider I discussing conditions for smaller developments not requiring a Conditional Use Permit at the next workshop. The Chairperson thanked staff and the participants in the workshop.
