CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA) The proposed project is exempt from CEQA, pursuant to Section 15301, existing facilities, as no revisions to the existing development on the subject site are proposed in conjunction with this application. ANALYSIS As noted above,the applicant is requesting approval of a Zoning Map Amendment to change the zoning designation of the subject property from Office Industrial Park (OIP) to Industrial Light (IL). Refer to Attachment B. No changes to the General Plan Map are proposed in conjunction with this application, as the General Plan land use designation for the subject site is Industrial, with which both the OIP and IL zones are consistent. The applicant is proposing to sell the site, and therefore, is requesting the IL zoning designation for the site to allow a wider variety of land uses on the site. No new development is proposed on the site at this time. Updated: 6/11/2013 by Henry Empeno Jr.B Packet Pg. 685 6.6 2311 FINDINGS OF FACT 1. The proposed amendment is consistent with the General Plan,in that per Table LU-2,"Land Use and Zoning Designations Consistency" in the General Plan Land Use Element, the OIP and IL zones are both considered industrial designations, and therefore, the change of zoning designation of the subject site from OIP to IL will be consistent with the General Plan. 2. The proposed amendment would not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare of the City, in that as noted above, there is no development proposed in conjunction with this application and the change in zoning designation of the site from OIP to IL will maintain an industrial land use classification on the site. 3. The proposed amendment would maintain the appropriate balance of land uses within the City, in that as noted in Findings 1 and 2, above, the change in zoning designation of the subject site from OIP to IL will maintain the industrial General Plan land use designation for the site. Thus,the balance of land uses in the City will not be affected by this proposal. ? 4. The subject parcel(s) is physically suitable (including, but not limited to, access, provision of utilities, compatibility with adjoining land uses, and absence of physical constraints) for the requested land use designation(s) and the anticipated land use development(s). The site is rectangular, generally flat, and is approximately 19 acres in size. As noted above, the site is presently developed with an industrial use, and the surrounding properties are also developed with a variety of business park and industrial uses. The site has direct access from Tippecanoe Avenue on the west, Victoria Avenue to the south and San Bernardino Road to the north, and is presently served by all utilities. Further,the proposal to change the zoning designation of the subject site from OIP to IL will maintain the industrial General Plan land use designation for the site.
