Z 2' 21 2' 2' consistent with the City of Colton General Plan ("General Plan"), and will systematically implement the goals and objectives of the General Plan. Moreover, the City Council hereby makes the following specific findings in accordance with Section 18.58.05 of the Colton Municipal Code and state law: A. The proposed zone change is in conformity with the General Plan of the City because a general plan amendment has been approved concurrently with the zone change request. The general plan amendment changes the land use designation of the Subject Property from "Commercial (General Commercial)" to "Low Density Residential." The proposed R-1 (Single Family Residential) zoning designation is consistent and in conformity with the proposed amended general plan designation. B. There is a need in the community for more of the types of uses permitted by the proposed zoning designation. The proposed R-1 (Single Family) zoning designation permits use of the Subject Site for single family residential development. Moreover, designating the Subject Site from a commercial land use classification to a residential land use classification will increase the availability of land to meet the region's housing needs and promotes the goals and policies of the City's Housing Element C. The proposed change of zone will not adversely affect the surrounding area or the community in general. The Subject Site is located in the northwest area of the City. This area is already primarily developed with single family residential housing. Approval of this zoning designation will promote a compatible mix and arrangement of land uses and continue the residential land use patterns established in this neighborhood. RNPUB\DRD\617733 3
