<br />PUBLIC HEARINGS
<br />Assignment of Zoning Districts to the Area of Annexation No. 38, Stanley Blvd. Annex
<br />"B" (cont. from Oct. 18, Oct. 251 and Nov. 22, 1965)
<br />Mayor Long declared the Public Hearing on the above matter open.
<br />The City Clerk reported that there had been no written public hearing communi-
<br />cations.
<br />Mr. Fales reviewed the past action in chronological order as follows:
<br />The report of the Planning Commission regarding this matter, dated Sept. 27,
<br />1965, recommended that the area in question be zoned R -1. The Commission report
<br />pointed out three factors leading to their recommendation, even though the area is
<br />designated "High Density" on the General Plan. The factors involved the existing
<br />land use in the area, the extensive RG zoning already existing in the City, and the
<br />problems associated with the location of the Del Valle Parkway within the area in
<br />question.
<br />The recommendation of the Commission also had the effect of denying the con-
<br />current application of J. Comer for the zoning of a parcel located at 4160 Stanley
<br />Blvd., to the RG -15 District. This parcel is within Annexation No. 38.
<br />The Council expressed particular concern regarding the future location of the
<br />Del Valle Parkway within the area in question, and continued the matter from Oct.
<br />25 to Nov. 22 in order that a cost and time estimate could be secured regarding the
<br />necessary studies required for the establishment of a Plan Line for the Del Valle
<br />Parkway.
<br />On Nov. 22, upon receiving a cost and time estimate which placed completion of
<br />these studies at the third week in Feb. 1966, the Council adopted Ord. No. 431, an
<br />emergency ordinance which imposed a 90=day building permit "freeze" on the area of
<br />Annexation No. 38 until such time as the Del Valle Parkway Plan Line could be con-
<br />sidered and adopted. At the same time the Council continued the public hearing
<br />regarding the zoning of Annexation No. 38 to Feb. 21, 1966.
<br />Mr. Fales reported that in addition, it should be noted that previous to com-
<br />pletion of Annexation No. 38, and previous to Planning Commission consideration of
<br />the zoning of the area, Mr. Comer was offered an annexation agreement which would
<br />obligate the owner regarding the necessary right -of -way for the Del Valle Parkway,
<br />and the establishment of future width lines for the Parkway. This agreement also
<br />would have allowed RG zoning in the area in accordance with the General Plan. Mr.
<br />Comer chose not to execute this agreement.
