before the Planning Commission on June 10, 2008, and a Public Hearing before the City Council on July 15,

Code of the City of Temple City as described in Section 4 below based upon the findings set forth in Section
2 below and based upon the Environmental Assessment which is discussed in Section 3 below.
SECTION 2. The need for a Zoning Code amendment is based upon the following findings:
1. While numerous financial procedures are permitted in the City, currently, the existing
Zoning Code is silent in regards to Bail and Surety Bond Businesses;

use in the Heavy Commercial (C -3) Zone with the approval of a Conditional Use
Permit;

allow Bail and Surety Bond Businesses in the Heavy Commercial (C -3) Zone with the
approval of a Conditional Use Permit.

Negative Declaration has been prepared in accordance with the State CEQA Guidelines. The initial study

wild animals, birds, plants, fish, amphibians and related ecological communities, including the habitat
upon which the wildlife depends for its continued viability.
