C. The C -3 (Heavy Commercial) zoning designation will be consistent with
goals and policies set forth in the Lynwood General Plan Land Use and
Economic Development Elements.

the properties surrounding the site and would not negatively impact the
public health, safety, or general welfare. Mitigation measures and
conditions of approval have been included in the project to mitigate
potential impacts to a level of insignificance.
E. A C -3 zoning designation permits land uses that are less intensive than M

utilize hazardous materials, do not manufacture, do not have large truck
deliveries, do not operate 24 hours a day, and are better maintained.
Section 2. The City Council of the City of Lynwood, based upon the
aforementioned findings and determinations, hereby approves Zone Change No. 2004 -02
