COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY SURVEY AREA AS
ADOPTED BY RESOLUTION 00 -3960,
The City Council of the City of Temple City does ordain as follows:
Section 1. Ordinance No. 00 -852U was adopted by this City Council on
October 25, 2000 for a period of 45 days as an urgency ordinance under

set forth therein) a moratorium on all new construction and development
entitlements within the commercial zones of the new Survey area adopted by this
City Council in Resolution No. 00 -3960. As a means of protecting the areas in its
present state pending the completion of the Redevelopment Plan for such area,
and to avoid developments inconsistent with such plan, the Council further finds
that said Ordinance 00 -852U and this Ordinance 00 -853U are exempt from
CEQA both as emergency and temporary action, but also because under the
citations contained in Ordinance 00 -852U these Ordinances are designed to
protect the environment during a sensitive and developing period.

the adoption of Ordinance 00 -852U on the development of the Project Plan for

been issued and consultants have been retained, preliminary sketches have
been developed, and studies are underway with regard to public hearings.
Section 3. It is necessary that Ordinance 00 -852U be extended beyond
the initial 45 day period in order to protect the environment and permit the full
development of the proposed Project Plan. Staff has published the requisite
Notice for a hearing on December 5th 2000 for an extension of ten months and 15
days.
Section 4. Except as set forth below, any and all development within the
commercially zoned property (Downtown Specific Plan Boundaries) of the CRA
