ORDINANCE NO. 11 -944
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TEMPLE
CITY, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING A ZONE CHANGE (ZC 09 -1741)
FROM MUZ (MIXED -USE) TO C -2 (GENERAL COMMERCIAL) AT
9021 LAS TUNAS DRIVE & 5770 ROSEMEAD BOULEVARD, AND
AMENDING THE ZONING MAP OF THIS CITY ACCORDINGLY
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TEMPLE CITY HEREBY ORDAINS AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. Based upon information presented in a Staff Report dated March 15, 2011,
Planning Commission Resolution No. 11 -2323 PC, and based upon a Public Hearing by this City Council
on March 15, 2011 to consider such a Zone Change, the following findings are made:
1. The General Plan designation of the subject site is Commercial, which is consistent
with the proposed C -2 (General Commercial) zoning of the site; and
2. The proposed Zone Change to C -2 is appropriate in this more urbanized portion of
the City, located on primary streets in proximity to major transportation corridors. The
project site is arguably within the most urbanized portion of the City at one of the main
commercial nodes in the City (Rosemead Boulevard and Las Tunas Drive). The site
is appropriate for commercial development of the nature proposed by the applicant;
and
3. This site was zoned C -2 (General Commercial) prior to the 2006 action which
changed the zoning to Mixed -Use; and
4. The project site is within "Block D" of the Rosemead Boulevard Redevelopment
Project Area. The Gateway all- commercial project as proposed by the applicant
would further the overall intent of the Rosemead Boulevard Redevelopment Project
Area plan in that it would feature a variety of commercial uses which are identified as
desirable in the Redevelopment Plan.
SECTION 2. This project should result in no significant effects upon the environment, a
Subsequent Mitigated Negative Declaration has been prepared for this Zone Change (ZC 09 -1741) and
the related Conditional Use Permit (CUP 11 -1778) and the City Council hereby adopts a Subsequent
Mitigated Negative Declaration in accordance with the State CEQA Guidelines, as set forth in City Council
Resolution No. 11 -4736. The initial statement as prepared indicates that there is no potential for adverse
impact to the environment as it relates to all wild animals, birds, plants, fish, amphibians and related
ecological communities, including the habitat upon which the wildlife depends for its continued viability.
SECTION 3. Based upon the above findings, the City Council hereby adopts the requested Zone
Change (ZC 09- 1741), rezoning 9021 Las Tunas Drive & 5770 Rosemead Boulevard from MUZ (Mixed -
Use) To C -2 (General Commercial) and amending the Zone Map of the City accordingly.
SECTION 4. The City Council finds and determines that this Ordinance and re- zoning is
consistent with the adopted General Plan of the City as specifically set forth in Resolution NO. 00 -3969 on
November 7, 2000, and is consistent with the overall intent of the Rosemead Boulevard Redevelopment
Project Area plan.
SECTION 5. The City Clerk shall certify to the passage and adoption of this ordinance and to its
approval by the Mayor. The City Clerk is authorized and directed to cause this Ordinance to be published
within fifteen (15) days after its passage in a newspaper of general circulation and circulated within the
City in accordance with Government Code § 36933(a) or, to cause this Ordinance to be published in the
manner required by law using the alternative summary and posting procedure authorized under
Government Code § 36933(c).
APPROVED AND ADOPTED on this 5th day of April, 2011.
