AVENUEo
WHEREAS, the City Planning Commission of Hermosa Beach, at a public hearing
held December 6, 1972, December 20, 1972, January 17, 1973 and February 26, 1973,
considered the request of the City Council to change the land use zone classification
from R-3 Multiple family residence to R-2 Two Family Residence zone or such other
zone as the Planning Commission may recommend on: Lots 1 through 18 and 30 through
32 of block 16; Lots 1 through 34 of block 17; Lots 1 through 34 of block 18; Lots 8
through 31 of block 19; Lots 8 through 26 of block 20; Lots 8 through 20 of block 21;
Lots 9 through 10 of block 22 of Hermosa Beach Tract; and
WHEREAS, at said public hearings, testimony pro and con was heard and evaluated; and
WHEREAS, after due consideration it is the opinion of the Commission that the present
physical development of public ways (walk streets) makes realization of the R-3 density
difficult and creates congestion in the service alleys and on.Hermosa Avenue; and
WHEREAS, a lower density would create a better living environment and tend to
stabilize the neighborhood; and
WHEREAS, the R-2 B zone would encourage the maintenance and construction of owner-
occupied dwelling units which would further tend to preserve and enhance the existing
environment; and
WHEREAS, in the opinion of the Commission the environmental impact of the proposed
change will be negative and no Environmental Impact Report need be filed; and
WHEREAS, the inclusion of lots 1, 2 and 3 of block 16, Hermosa Beach Tract should
be subject to an R-3 Potential;
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the City Planning Commission of Hermosa
Beach hereby finds that the proposed change is necessary for the general welfare of
the City of Hermosa Beach; is consistent with the form and intent of the General Plan;
will not create a degrading impact on the city or the neighborhood; and therefore recom-
mends to the City Council that the properties listed herein above be changed to R-2B,
and that lots 1, 2 and 3 of block 16 Hermosa Beach Tract also be given R-3 Potential.
