Land Use Inventory Mr. Kee advised the Commission that in September of 1974, the Planning .Department acquired the services of a planning intern and one of his first tas}:s involved a complete land use inventory of the City and unincorporated area within Campbell's Sphere of Influence.

The following tables Caere submitted for the Commission's review: 1. Existing Toning - Existing City Limits. 2. Existing Zoning - Unincorporated area within Campbell's Sphere of Influence. 3. Existing Zoning - Maximum City area if all unincorporated land within Campbell's Sphere of Influence were to be annexed to the City. 4. ,Planned Land Use- Existing City Limits. 5. Planned Land Use- Unincorporated area within Campbell's Sphere of Influence. ~.

Mr. Tedesco advised that all the information obtained has been recorded on the Assessor's Maps and the next time this study is done it will be a much shorter process. Mr. Kee advised that the information developed from this survey is of great value to the Planning Staff inasmuch as calls are received from developers, State and County asking about the re- lationship between the different land uses within the City. The five charts give a great deal of information and is very helpful in the Planning Office in determining very quickly just what the status of land use is in the City. He stated that Campbell is 9$ developed in commercial land use, which is over the County average. This study is part of a goal which was submitted, to the City Manager and has been completed with the assistance of tRr.
