to the Planning Commission and called attantion to part

3. ROSEMEAD BOULEVARD R-4 ZONING
The Planning Commission discussed possible alternate C -2
zoning of Rosemead Boulevard. The comparatively shallow
165 foot depth of lots was noted as possible deterrent to
either apartment or retail shopping development. Also noted
was heavy traffic on Rosemead Boulevard. The Planning Dir-
ector noted the possibility of leaving zoning as is and re-
working the permitted uses in Zone R-4 to permit most if
not all professional offices as defined by State Code. The
Commission was specifically concerned with the possibility
cf Zoning Ordinance revisions to allow Commission review
of site plans for all such uses, either through setting pro -
fessional offices in C.U.P. category or through a regulation
similar to West Covina's "Precise Plans of design" ordinance.
Staff was requested to review the question with the City
Attorney and then prepare a study for Commission study at a
later date.
4. REQUIRED CHURCH LAND AREAS - Letter
A letter from the Temple City Christian Church was read to the
Planning Commission. It requested early consideration of
possible removal of minimum land area for churches. The Plan-
ning Commission and staff reviewed the existing ordinance re-
quirements and limitations. It was agreed the amendments are
probably desirable. Staff was instructed to add letter to
the agenda of January llth, under communications so Commission
could officially take action to order hearings.
5. POSSIBLE COMMERCIAL ZONING IN AREA OF 3ALDWIN AND OLIVE
INTERSECTION
Commissioner Briggs raised the question of whether it would
be out of reason to consider a possible commercial develop-
ment at Baldwin and Olive. It was a consensus that a good
plan for expanding one of the commercial corners would not be
an unreasonable request.

6. TEEN CENTERS - PROBLEMS OF POLICING AND CONTROL
Commissioner Beckley noted there had been inquiries concern-
ing possible Teen Centers in this City. He suggested that
two points are of concern to him in such an enterprise which
would be policing and control around the property. Other
Commissioners expressed similar concern and asked the staff
to make inquiry of other cities that have had Teen Centers
and report to the Commission at a later date. Intent was to
provide time for impartial study before any specific requests
appear on the calendar.
