RESOLUTION NO. 4100 - A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COLTON APPRO ;3 ING REORGANIZATION OF THE DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY SERVICES. RESOLUTION NO. 4101 - RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COLTON AMENDING RESOLUTION NO. 4011, ESTABLISHING A PAY AND CLASSIFICATION PLAN FOR THE EMPLOYEES OF THE CITY OF COLTON, EFFECTIVE JULY 1, 1980. ING COMMISSION REPORTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS: City Properties Detachment Planning Director Aguilera reported on a request from the City of Grand Terrace that Colton consider detaching an area having frontage along Washington Street, owned by the Riverside Highland Water Company. Mr. Aguilera advised that the Planning Commission studied this item, at a meeting held April 14, 1981, to determine if the sale of this property would serve a use- ful and valid purpose and it was found that the request would tend to accommodate the applicant and not necessarily benefit the City of Colton, and being inconsis- tent with the General Plan; therefore, it was recommended to deny the request from Grand Terrace concerning the property along Washington Street. r,- Moved by Councilman Rehrer, seconded by Councilman Hayes, approving recommendation N from Planning Commission concerning property fronting Washington Street within the (,) City of Colton. Unanimous vote. 7 Variances Q P. C. Res. Nos. 989 & 990 Q Mr. Aguilera read a report concerning a Variance application requested by Guinn E. Lumpkin, involving property located on Hunter Road, between Johnston and Mill Streets, to vary from previously approved conditions of a zone change, in 1977, which re- quired that any future development should take access from Mill Street, and also not more than eight units per acre be allowed. Mr. Aguilera continued the plot plan submitted delineates a parcel of approximate- ly 2 acres in size with 22 proposed units and access to be taken from Johnston Street. Mr. Aguilera stated the original owner subdivided the parcel, in 1976, without allowing the south portion access to Mill Street, therefore, the only access available to said parcel is to the south, or Johnston Street, and it was found that this item was in conformance with the requirements of the City's Muni- cipal Ordinance which must be met before a Variance may be granted. Mr. Aguilera further stated under the normal provisions for the R-3 zone, the applicant would be allowed to build up to 21 units per acre, however, due to the property's proxi- mity to the R-1 zone, it was originally recommended that the zone change be granted with the condition that the density not exceed 8 units per acre, and that item was not in conformance with the City Municipal Ordinance requirements which must be met before a Variance may be granted. Mr. Aguilera concluded that the Planning Commission, after studying this matter at a public hearing held April 14, 1981, therefore recommended denial of the Variance application to allow 11 units per acre instead of the required 8 units per acre, as outlined in Planning Commission Resolution No. 989, and recommended approval of the Variance application allowing access onto Johnston Street, as out- lined in Planning Commission Resolution No. 990. Moved by Councilman Rehrer, seconded by Councilman Hayes, to approve Planning Com- mission Resolution Nos. 989 and 990 as outlined. Unanimous vote. Conditional Use Permits P. C. Res. No. 991 Mr. Aguilera read his memorandum regarding a Conditional Use Permit application re- quested by Wilford and Sarah Sklar to construct 67 condominium units on approximate- ly 4.78 acres of vacant land located east of Pepper Avenue between San Bernardino Avenue and Valley Boulevard, in Tract No. 11876. Mr. Aguilera stated the density is approximately 14 units per acre, the project is both consistent with the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance, and will be compatible with the surrounding uses. Mr. Aguilera advised that the Planning Commission reviewed this matter at a public hearing held April 14, 1981, and recommended approval of the Conditional Use Permit, subject to findings and 13 conditions as outlined in Planning Commission Resolution No. 991.
