ORDINANCE NO. 1569 - AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COLTON AMEND - First Reading ING ORDINANCE NO. 1450. CORRESPONDENCE: Zoning Mayor Gonzales read a letter from Mr. B. B. Merrell with regard to the zoning of his property, located on East Valley Boulevard, Lots 19 and 20, Block 103, which he believed to be an M-2 zone, and requested the Council's consideration in waiving the filing fee of $150 for a zone change amendment. Planning Director Gonzales read his memorandum dated August 17, 1979, advising that the property in question is zoned M-1, which does not allow the storage of wrecked vehicles, and which is the type of business proposed for that location. Mr. Gonzales stated the storage of wrecked vehicles is allowed in an M-2 zone, with a Conditional Use Permit. Mr. Gonzales stated the lots in question have been researched by Staff for per- mitted uses within the past twenty years and no approvals for the storage of wrecked vehicles has been found. The lots in question may be used for a park- ing lot, but cannot be used to store wrecked vehicles, and a zone change does not seem to be feasible since the property faces Valley Boulevard and the sur- rounding uses are commercial or light manufacturing. Mr. B. B. Merrell, 1011 Valencia Drive, Colton, requested Council's considera- tion and approval of his request, stating he agreed to install a block wall along the front of the property, and there would be no wrecked cars on the lot, the vehicles that would be parked there would be those impounded by the police and for insurance purposes. After additional discussion, on Council consensus, Mr. Merrell was instructed to apply for the zone change amendment on the property in question and pay the filing fee. Chamber of Commerce Mr. Elliott referred to a letter from the Chamber of Commerce regarding a request for allocation of funds, recommending that this matter be referred to the next Regular Council Meeting, September 18, 1979. Mayor Gonzales stated the City Council will deviate from the Agenda and take care of Item No. 27 at this time.

Bickley, Attorney at Law, and Attorney for Colton Iron and Metal, appealing the requirement of an addition- al EIR for their Conditional Use Permit application.
