PC Res 3829
RESOLUTION NO. 3829
BEING A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF
THE CITY OF CAMPBELL RECOMMENDING APPROVAL OF A
GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT (PLN2007-100) TO THE LAND
USE ELEMENT OF THE GENERAL PLAN FOR THE SOUTHERLY
.22 ACRE PORTION OF A .62 ACRE PARCEL FROM
PROFESSIONAL OFFICE TO LOW-DENSITY RESIDENTIAL
(LESS THAN 6 UNITS PER GROSS ACRE) FOR PROPERTY
OWNED BY TERSINI FAMILY, LP, LOCATED AT 1670 GRACE
AVENUE.
After notification and public hearing, as specified by law and after presentation by the
Community Development Director, proponents and opponents, the hearing was closed.
After due consideration of all evidence presented, the Planning Commission did find as
follows with respect to application PLN2007 -100:
1. This proposed General Plan Amendment covers a .22 acre area.
2. The project site entrance is located on Grace Avenue. The project site is bordered to
the south and west by single-family residential uses.
3. The proposed land use designation of Low Density Residential (less than 6 units per
gross acre) establishes a desirable land use pattern in this neighborhood.
4. The requested land use designation change would establish a land use designation
that acts as a transition with land use designation of surrounding properties to east
and north of the project site.
5. The proposed land use amendment is consistent with other General Plan Elements
as follows:
. The residential designation allows the continuation of the existing residence or
redevelopment of a single-family residence furthering the objectives of the
Housing Element by diversifying available housing opportunities.
. The intensity of development is supported by the existing circulation system and
is consistent with the Circulation Element.
Based upon the foregoing findings of fact, the Planning Commission further finds and
concludes that:
1. The proposed development will result in a more desirable environment and use of
the land than would be possible under any other General Plan Land Use
Designation.

2. The development will be compatible with the General Plan of the City and will aid in
the harmonious development of the immediate area.
3. The proposed General Plan Land Use Designation change will not be detrimental to
the health, safety or welfare of the neighborhood or the City as a whole.
4. There is a reasonable relationship and a rough proportionality between the
Conditions of Approval and the impacts of the project.
5. No substantial evidence has been presented from which a reasonable argument
could be made that shows that the project, as currently presented and subject to the
required Conditions of Approval, will have a significant adverse impact on the
environment.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission recommends approval
of a General Plan Amendment (PLN2007 -100) to the Land Use Element of the General
Plan for the southerly .22 acre portion of a .62 acre parcel from Professional Office to
Low-Density Residential (less than 6 acres per gross acre) for property owned by
Tersini Family, LP, located at 1670 Grace Avenue.
