Mr. Harry L. Keiffer, President of A & K Developments, Inc., spoke to the City Cofra5l in opposition to the City's proposed General Plan as it relates to his piece of prop- erty, a 50 acre parcel at Barton Road and Hilltop Drive, requesting there be no in- crease in density and a zoning designation of RE -PC to allow clustering of a 44 home development in conjunction with the contiguous westerly property. Mr. Keiffer review- ed information concerning his property, from the time of purchase in 1979, with regard to the topography of the land, hilly terrain, and his proposals for development of the acreage. Mr. Keiffer concluded they would like to maintain the current density, and he would like to complete what he has started on this parcel of land.

Moved by Councilwoman Garcia, seconded by Councilman Hayes, to approve Resolution No. 4163. Unanimous vote. RESOLUTION NO. 4163 - A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COLTON ADOPT- ING THE GENERAL PLAN FOR THE CITY OF COLTON. Mayor Gonzales said he would like to thank the Blue Ribbon Committee, Staff, and all those involved with the completion of the General Plan for the City of Colton. NCouncilwoman Cisneros said she would like to make a motion to instruct Staff to make appropriate additional regulations for the Industrial Park concept in our City's zoning, and bring this back to the Council. Motion seconded by Councilman Hayes. 7 Q Planning Director Aguilera stated he would like to clarify a point, in that not only Q is Industrial Park a new designation, but also the downtown Multi -Use Corridor, and the Mt. Vernon Avenue/Colton Avenue Multi -Use Corridor. Mr. Aguilera said the text of the General Plan calls for Conditional Use Permits being required for those new designations until such time as the zoning ordinance is amended to reflect those new designations, and because of this, he would respectfully request that a Conditional Use Permit be required, as per the text of the General Plan, for those areas until such time as the new zoning designations can be introduced. Councilwoman Cisneros said she would amend her motion to instruct Staff to prepare an amendment to the Zoning Ordinance to reflect the new designations of Industrial Park and Multi -Use Corridor, and to require a Conditional Use Permit until the amend- ment is completed. Motion seconded by Councilman Hayes and unanimously passed.
