SECTION 1. Findings.
1. The proposed General Plan Amendment and Rezoning is consistent with General Plan
Land Use and Housing Element policies to locate student housing projects, fraternities
and sororities, and generally more affordable housing in close proximity to the campus.
2. The General Plan Amendment and Rezone from Medium -High Density Residential (R -3)
to High- Density Residential (R -4) will allow for density required for the proposed
condominium project and group housing use, and will provide for more viable future
redevelopment of other properties to be consistent with the above General Plan policies
and Land Use Element policy stating that housing likely to attract faculty or students
should be encouraged to locate close to Cal Poly, to reduce commute travel.
3. The proposed General Plan Amendment and Rezone will not be detrimental to the health,
safety and welfare of those living and working in the vicinity since it will not allow
incompatible land uses. The area of the proposed GP /R and project site is already
adjacent to other High- Density zoned properties and is bordered by the Cal Poly campus
to the north.
