PC: 6-3-93 GP-93-4 RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Planning Commission: 1. Approve the Negative Declaration; and 2. Forward General Plan Text Amendment Application No. GP-93-4 to the Board of Supervisors with a recommendation for approval based upon the 'Basis for General Plan Amendment' contained in the staff report. BASIS FOR GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT 1. The internal consistency of the General Plan is maintained in the adoption of the Amendment. • This determination can be made because the policy as proposed for addition does not conflict with other policies of the General Plan. PROJECT DESCRIPTION This General Plan Text Amendment consists of a new policy to be added to the 'Commercial Development' section that would allow for the blending of uses between Limited Industrial, General Industrial, and certain Commercial designations. STAFF ANALYSIS PROPOSED TEXT AMENDMENT: The application is a Text Amendment to the County General Plan 2010, in the form of a new Policy 7 to be added to the 'Community Organization and Development Pattem, Commercial Development' section of Volume I, Page IV-30. The new Policy 7 would read: 7. In areas where a commercial General Plan designation is adjacent to an industrial General Plan designation, commercial and industrial uses may be mixed in order to form a transition between the two designated areas. The specific uses that may be allowed must be based upon land use plans and criteria included in an approved Special Purpose Plan, which applies to both designated areas. This provision may not be applied to areas designated by the General Plan as Neighborhood Commercial,Commercial Recreation, or Truck Terminal, and may not be applied to properties that do not have a full range of public services. UNDERLYING PROJECT: The application for a General Plan Text Amendment has been submitted by Bud Lyons, of King & Lyons. Mr. Lyons wishes to apply the policy to the first 80 acres of commercial and industrial development -3-
