b) That based on the evidence presented at the public hearing, the Board hereby
RECOMMENDS APPROVAL of ZONE CODE AMENDMENTS ZCA 95-10(AX1)
based on the following findings:
1. The proposed Zone Code Amendments, ZCA 95-10(aX1), are consistent
with the revised General Plan language that provides for implementing
policies and strategies to facilitate development in the Village Area that
helps to create a strong identity for the Village, revitalize the area,
enhance the economic potential of the Village and establish specific site
development standards.
2. The proposed Zone Code Amendment, ZCA 95-10(aX1), reflects sound
principles of good planning in that it (a) ensures internal consistency with
the procedures and standards of the rest of the existing Zoning
Ordinance, as amended, and the Village Master Plan and Design
Manual, with proposed revisions thereto, and (b) implements the policies
and programs of the General Plan, as revised to accommodate related
language/heading revisions and/or language additions.
3. The proposed amendment will be effective thirty (30) days after approval
date, in all areas of the Village, except those areas of the Village which
are located in the Coastal Zone. For properties in the Coastal Zone, the
amendment will not be effective until approved and certified by the
California Coastal Commission.
