CC Ordinance 2001
ORDINANCE NO. 2001
BEING AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
CAMPBELL EXTENDING A MORATORIUM FOR ONE YEAR ON THE
APPROVAL OF ANY APPLICATION INCONSISTENT WITH THE
RESIDENTIAL DENSITY RANGE OF LOW-DENSITY - LESS THAN 6 UNITS
PER GROSS ACRE, AND/OR INCONSISTENT WITH THE REQUIREMENTS
OF THE R-l ZONING DISTRICT IN THE AREA DESCRIBED IN
ATTACHMENT A. COMMONLY REFERED TO AS THE RESIDENTIAL AREA
OF NORTH HARRISON AVENUE AND CENTRAL AVENUE BETWEEN
HAMIL TON AVENUE AND GRANT STREET
The City Council of the City of Campbell does ordain as follows:
SECTION ONE: The City Council hereby finds that this ordinance is necessary for the
immediate preservation of the public peace, health and safety, in that there is a current
and immediate threat to the public health, safety, and welfare, and that the approval of
additional subdivisions, use permits, variances, building permits, or any other applicable
entitlement for use which is required in order to comply with a zoning ordinance would
result in that threat to public health, safety, and welfare, as is more particularly set forth
below:
A. The City Council has authorized an update to the General Plan to consider city-wide
modifications in Land Use Policies and General Plan Map Designations that could affect
the development policies as they relate to the residential area of North Central Avenue
and Harrison A venue between Grant Street and Hamilton Avenue ("area"); and
B. The "area" is currently designated on the General Plan Map as Low-Medium Density
Residential and has a Zoning Designation of Multiple-Family Residential; and
C. The General Plan Task Force, appointed by the City Council to oversee the
development of the draft General Plan Update, has recommended reducing the residential
density of this "area", and
D. On April 4, 2000, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1985, establishing a 45-day
moratorium on any development in the "area" that does not conform to Low-Density
Residential designation of the General Plan or the requirements of the R-1 Zoning
District;
E. On May 2, 2000, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1987, extending the
moratorium, for up to 10 months and 15 days which will expire on April 3, 2001, on any
development in the "area" that does not conform to Low-Density Residential designation
of the General Plan or the requirements of the R-1 Zoning District;
F. The General Plan is scheduled to be presented to the City Council for adoption in
September 2001, and
G. There are properties in the subject "area" that could be brought forward for a
development application before the completion of the General Plan adoption; and
H. The development of dwellings at a higher density than may ultimately be adopted
would result in an inconsistent development pattern that is disruptive to the
neighborhood, and could negatively impact property values and the quality of life of
persons residing in the "area;" and
1. The City has held public hearings on the General Plan Update that were continued to
evaluate traffic concerns; and
1. The City has entered into a contract with an environmental consulting firm to complete
an Environmental Impact Report on the General Plan Update that will be completed and
the adoption hearings held by September 2001.
SECTION TWO: Ordinance 1985 is hereby extended to April 3, 2002, or until it is
repealed by the City Council, whichever comes first.
