BACKGROUND INFORMATION: On May 19, 1993 the City Council introduced Ordinance No_ 1577 which prezoned 451 East Turner Road (County address for 2801 West Turner Road) to C -S, Commercial Shopping and approved a General Plan Amendment redesignating the parcel from PR, Planned Residential to NCC, Neighborhood -Community Commercial. Subsequent to that Ordinance the Council initiated annexation procedings for the subject property which was approved by the Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO). APPROVED. THOMAS A. PETERSON City Manager L: recvciec :aper cc-* City Council - Public Hearing to Consider GPA -LU -3 & Rezone for 2801 West Turner Road Meeting Date: July 5, 1995 Page two During the past two years the developers have been unable to generate any interest in a shopping center at this location and now believe tht the property could best be used as a high end single-family development. Recently, Keszler-Baker applied to the Planning Commission and City Council to prezone the property north and east (i.e. APN's 015-230-36 and 38) of 2801 West Turner Road to R-1, Single -Family Residential. This request was approved and the annexation request for those properties is pending before LAFCO. The applicants believe that the commercial site should be added to the proposed residential subdivision. FUNDING: Application fees. " L � Jaes B.

Keszler and A. Fred Baker for General Plan Amendment GPA LU 95-3, to redesignate the parcel at 2801 West Turner Road (APN 015-230-39) from NCC, Neighborhood -Community Commercial to LDR, Low Density Residential, and to rezone the parcel at 2801 West Turner Road from C -S, Commercial Shopping, to R-1, Single -Family Residential, and finally, to certify the filing of a Negative Declaration by the Community Development Director as adequate environmental documentation on the above projects. Community Development Director Schroeder introduced this matter for the Planning Commission. He explained that approximately two years ago the City had approved a General Plan Amendment and rezoning to designate a 9.53 acre parcel on the north side of Turner Road to Commercial Shopping Center. At the same time this property was also annexed to the City. Subusequently, the property was not developed and there does not appear to be strong interest in developing the property for a shopping center. The property owners are back before the City to request that the parcel be redesignated low density residential and rezoned to R-1, Single -Family Residential. Chairman Stafford asked about separating this General Plan Amendment from the other General Plan request located at Kettleman Land and Lower Sacramento Road. Mr. Schroeder stated that by separating the two the City will be utilizing two General Plan Amendments. However, he felt it would not be right to hold up Mr. Baker's request because of delays encountered by the Geweke Properties and Southwest Associates projects. He explained that he does not anticipate many additional General Plan requests in the near future, and if there are some, they could be grouped together and done with a single General Plan Amendment late in the year. Coming forward to speak on the request was Fred Baker. Mr. Baker reviewed the history of the property and explained the reason for the original shopping center request. He explained that at that time a major tenant, Albertson's Super Market was interested in developing a store at that location and becoming the anchor for the shopping center. Shortly after the rezoning, Albertson's changed their mind and dropped out of the picture. Subsequently, there has been no interest by another major tenant to build in the shopping center. For that reason, the property owners now wish to rezone the property so it can be developed with a single-family residential subdivision. Mr. Baker noted that he and his partners also own the 32 acres which surround the subject site to the north and west. This property is currently going through the annexation process and it is planned for a single-family residential subdivision. If the rezoning is granted on the shopping center property, the two projects will be joined to create a single residential subdivision. He felt the residential project DocumenO BRIDGETOWN I GPA & REZONE NEIGHBORHOOD COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL TO LOW DENSITY RESIDENTIAL will be more compatible with the surounding residential development than a commercial shopping center. Mr. Baker also reviewed with the Planning Commission his discussion with the Parks and Recreation Commission regarding a neighborhood park proposed for the subdivision. The Parks and Recreation Commission has requested a park which will be located in the center of the project. He noted that he does not entirely agree with the location or the size of the park. However, he is willing to abide by whatever the City determines is appropriate for the location. Several of the Planning Commissioners also commented on the proposed park with some feeling that a more appropriate location would be adjacent to Turner Road making it more accessible to people in the surrounding area. Community Development Director Schroeder stated he is not convinced that putting the park in the center of the project would be the best location. However, currently that was not an issue before the Planning Commission. He explained that the Planning Commission would have the opportunity to review the park issue at a later date when a specific development pian is submitted to the City. He felt that if there are philosophical differences between the Planning Commission and the Parks and Recreation Commission in terms of park location and size, it might be helpful for the two bodies to hold a joint meeting to discuss the matter. Senior Planner Morimoto noted that he had participated in the task force that helped develop the Parks and Recreation Master Plan and he explained the philosophy behind the size and location criteria established by the Parks and Recreation Master Plan. - Following some additional discussion, the Planning Commission concluded that a rezoning of the property to single-family residential was appropriate and would be more consistent with the uses in the surrounding area. With that on a motion by Commissioner McGladdery, second by Commissioner Marzolf, the Planning Commission unanimously approved the filing of a Negative Declaration on the project by the Community Development Director. Next, on a motion by Commissioner McGladdery, second by Commissioner Schmidt, the Planning Commission unanimously approved the General Plan Amendment to redesignate the parcel at 2801 West Turner Road from NCC, Neighborhood Community Commercial to LDR, Low Density Residential, and to rezone the same parcel from C -S, Commercial Shopping, to R-1, Single -Family Residential.
