GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT 83-3, ITEM A
TEXT AMENDMENT
(to be included under Special Study section
of the Land Use Element, page 11)
The City Council, in December 1983, approved an amendment to
the Land Use Element by designating a 7.68+ acre parcel
SS (Special Studyl• The purpose of this amendment was to
designate particular land uses which would be appropriate
for the area due to the many environmental constraints present
on the property. As a part of the Council's consideration,
the following development constraints were identified for
the area:
a) Tree Preservation - There are several large
groups of trees located within the study area.
Whatever land use mix is developed is to
preserve these tree clusters.
b) Circulation and Access - The study area will
be served by Valle Road. The types of land
uses should be designed such that the overall
traffic volumes would not be increased from
that currently projected for the area.
c) Hillside Preservation - A portion of the study
area has existing slopes greater than 10 percent.
Primary focus should be directed to minimizing
the grading impacts into such portions of the
study area.
d) Architectural Elevations - Any building elevations
for the study area should address particular
attention to implementing a full pitched roof
design. In addition, all mechanical equipment
should be ground -mounted and screened or located
within a building.
e) Compatibility With Adjacent Residential Uses -
Land uses should be visually pleasing and have
operational characteristics which will be compatible
with the residential and open space uses adjacent
to the study area.
f) Noise - The area is totally within a high noise
impact area. Therefore, any type of land use
mix should be such that it is either compatible
with such an environment or that adequate mitigation
measures can be accommodated in an ultimate
development program.
In response to these criteria, the following land use mixes
would be considered generally consistent with the Special
Study designation on the General Plan subject to development
and ultimate approval of a specific plan. They include
public institutional and commercial recreation uses. Possible
mixed use concepts are graphically described by the following
examples:
