SUBJECT: ADOPTION OF AN ORDINANCE, REZONING PROPERTIES AT 715 & 735
TANK FARM ROAD FROM SERVICE COMMERCIAL SPECIFIC PLAN
PLANNED DEVELOPMENT (C-S-SP-PD) TO OFFICE SPECIFIC PLAN (O-
SP). CITY FILE#: R 52-04.
CAO RECOMMENDATION
Adopt Ordinance No. 1468 (2005 Series) rezoning properties at 715 and 735 Tank Farm Road.
DISCUSSION
Situation
On December 7, 2004, the City Council voted 5 to 0 to introduce Ordinance No. 1468, rezoning
property at 715 and 735 Tank Farm Road from Service Commercial with the Specific Plan and
Planned Development overlays (C-S-SP-PD) to Office with the Specific Plan overlay (O-SP).
This change will allow for a broader range of professional office uses without floor area
limitations and land use restrictions established by Large Office Planned Developments 51-93 &
182-02. Ordinance No. 1468 is now ready for adoption. The Zoning Map change will become
effective 30 days after its adoption.
Significant Impacts
The City Council adopted a Negative Declaration (ER 52-04) for the proposed rezoning on
December 7,2004, which concluded that the project would not have a significant adverse impact
on the environment.
Consequences of Not Taking the Recommended Action
If the Council does not adopt the ordinance, the site zoning would remain C-S-SP-PD and land
uses established by Large Office Planned Developments 51-93 & 182-02 would remain in effect.

impacts of the proposed project, and reflects the independent judgment of the City Council. The
Council hereby adopts said Negative Declaration.
SECTION 2. Findings. Based upon all the evidence, the Council makes the following
findings:
1. The proposed Rezoning is consistent with General Plan Land Use Element policies on office
locations for the following reasons: 1) The site is already developed with 65,000 square feet
of commercial office space, parking and landscaping; 2) The site is already approved for
construction, architecture, engineering, industrial design and certain professional office uses
via Large Office Planned Developments 51-93 and 182-02; 3) The site has street frontage
and access from a Highway/Regional Route and Parkway Arterial; and 4) The project will
not significantly increase traffic in residential areas.

2. The proposed project is consistent with the Edna-Islay Specific Plan because office uses are
considered compatible with residential uses and will provide additional employment
opportunities and services for surrounding neighborhoods.
3. The proposed Rezoning will not create non-conforming uses at the site because all existing
uses are allowed within the Office zoning district.

October 21, 2004. The Negative Declaration concludes that the project will not have a
significant adverse impact on the environment.
SECTION 3. Action.. The City Council does hereby approve the Zoning Regulations
Map amendment (R 52-04), as shown on Exhibit A, and rescinds Ordinances 1247 & 1433
