CC Resolution 10689
RESOLUTION NO. 10689
BEING A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF CAMPBELL APPROVING THE CAMPBELL DOWNTOWN
DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2006 OF THE GENERAL PLAN.
After notification and public hearing, as specified by law on the proposed amendments
to the Downtown Development Plan, and after presentation by the Community
Development Director, proponents and opponents, the City Council did determine that
the adoption of the Campbell Downtown Development Plan 2006 are warranted based
upon the following findings:
1. The Campbell Downtown Development Plan 2006 was reviewed by the City of
Campbell Planning and Public Works Departments, the City of Campbell
Redevelopment staff, and the Downtown Business Association.
2. The proposed project is consistent with all six elements of the City of Campbell's
General Plan. Specifically, the Downtown Development Plan Update 2006 supports
the following General Plan Policies and Strategies: Strategy LUT-2.2d supports
traffic calming measures in the Downtown; Strategy LUT-3.1c allows higher
residential densities along transit corridors; Strategy LUT-5.3e encourages
community and cultural events in the Downtown; Strategy LUT-5.3f facilities
Downtown revitalization; Strategy LUT-5.3g encourages day and evening activities
in the Downtown; Policy LUT -6.1 a encourages gateway treatments; Policy LUT -8.1
supports historic preservation; Strategy LUT-13.2a plans for sufficient parking;
Strategy LUT-13.2b plans for efficient parking; Policy LUT-18.1 mandates
consistency of new development with the Redevelopment Plan; Policy CNR-1.1
supports historic preservation; Strategy CNR-2.1 a encourages a pedestrian-friendly
atmosphere; and, Strategy CNR-2.1 b encourages historic amenities.
3. The proposed project is consistent with the Municipal Code. The Downtown
Development Plan Area includes properties which are zoned Public Facilities/Open
Space, Planned Development, Central Commercial, and General Commercial. The
Downtown Development Plan Update 2006 is consistent with all development
standards established for these zoning districts. The Plan Update also corrects the
Downtown Development Plan, February 1996 by specifying a maximum allowable
floor area ratio which is consistent with the zoning code.
4. The Environmental Impact Report prepared for the City of Campbell General Plan
provides full and adequate environmental review for adoption of the Downtown
Development Plan Update 2006.
Based upon the foregoing findings of fact, the City Council further finds and concludes
that:
