365 MAYOR'S REPORTS AND PROCLAMATIONS Awards Councilman Rios stated that on behalf of the City Council, and all the citizens of the City of Colton, he would like to extend a warm welcome to the Fairbanks Little League, Alaskan Champions, and all those involved in the 1983 Western Regional Championship Little League Baseball Tournament. Mr. Rios advised that Division 21 is hosting this team from Alaska. Mayor Huntoon then presented each player, the Manager, Coach, and District Administrator with key chains containing the City of Colton emblem. Mayor Huntoon also presented a key chain to Bob Levine, who had contributed a great deal of time and effort during the Tournament. PUBLIC HEARINGS: Zoning Ord. No. 1649 Mayor Huntoon declared the Public Hearing open. Deputy City Clerk Veralrud submitted the Affidavit of Publication (� and reported that no protests or objections had been received. Planning Director Aguilera reported on the request for a change of Q zone from RE to RE/PC, on a 42 acre site void of development and presently zoned RE, located in the Reche Canyon area approximately 100 feet north of Westwood, 2,400 feet west of Reche Canyon Road, bounded on the west by the Colton City limits and 1,500 feet south of Barton Road. Mr. Aguilera continued the applicant has indicated the proposed project will consist of the development of 84 single-family de- tached residences. No development plans have been submitted at this time. The Planned Community overlay will allow the applicant to vary from the Zoning Ordinance development standards and there- by allow the applicant to transfer densities. These variations are subject to approval by the Planning Department during the re- view of the required tentative tract. Mr. Aguilera concluded the Planning Commission, at a Public Hearing held August 9, 1983, recommended approval of the zone change request as outlined in Planning Commission Resolution No. 1084. Mr. Aguilera stated if Council concurs with the recommendation, it would be in order to consider First Reading of Ordinance No. 1649. Mayor Huntoon asked if there was anyone in the audience that desired to speak on this matter. Mr. Joseph E. Bonadiman, of Joseph E. Bonadiman & Associates, Inc., 606 East Mill Street, San Bernardino, stated his firm is the engi- neer for this project, and if the Council Members, or anyone, have any questions, he would be more than happy to answer them. Mr. Gene McMeans, 12004 Glenwood, Colton, stated that he was not particularly opposed to the zone change, however, he felt the City Council should make sure there are provisions for proper access roads in and out of the development and that this should be outlined in the final Engineer's Report. Mr. McMeans stated the roads through the Westwood development are narrow, with many curves, and putting in a loop road that returns to Barton Road should possibly be con- sidered. Moved by Councilman Rehrer, seconded by Councilwoman Cisneros, to terminate the Public Hearing. Unanimous vote. Moved by Councilman Rehrer, seconded by Councilman Rios, to waive full reading and pass First Reading of Ordinance No. 1649. Vote was unanimous. AUG 16
