BEING A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF
THE CITY OF CAMPBELL RECOMMENDING APPROVAL OF A
GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT TO THE LAND USE ELEMENT OF
THE GENERAL PLAN FOR THE CAMBRIAN NO. 36 COUNTY

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
recommends that the City Council approve a General Plan Land Use Map designation
of:
• General Commercial for non-residential properties located along Camden Avenue;
• Neighborhood Commercial for non-residential properties located at the intersection
of Union and Bascom Avenues;
• Low Density Residential (less than 4.5 dwelling units per gross acre) for residential
properties located within the Cambrian No. 36 County pocket;
• Low Density Residential (less than 6 dwelling units per gross acre) for residential
properties located within the Central Park detachment neighborhood; and
• Open Space for the Water District property fronting McGlincy Lane, within the
detachment neighborhood.
The Planning Commission finds as follows:
1. The subject properties are located within the unincorporated areas of the Cambrian
No. 36 County pocket and the incorporated lands of the City of San Jose commonly
known as the Central Park neighborhood.
2. The City of Campbell City Council has reached agreement with the City of San Jose
and the County of Santa Clara to annex this territory.
3. These neighborhoods, although not within the City's Sphere of Influence or Urban
Service Area, will achieve logical City boundary lines through the ultimate
annexation of said territory.
4. The proposed General Plan land use designations will achieve consistency with the
City's policies and the existing development pattern of the neighborhoods.

Based upon the foregoing findings of fact, the Planning Commission further finds and
concludes that:
1. The proposed General Plan designations will not be detrimental to the public
interest, health, safety, convenience, or general welfare of the City.
2. The proposed amendment is internally consistent with the goals, policies, and
actions of the General Plan.
3. 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.
4. The recommended General Plan designations are identified on the attached map
(Exhibit A).
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission recommends approval
of a General Plan Amendment to the Land Use Element of the General Plan for the
Cambrian No. 36 County Pocket and the Central Park Neighborhood Detachment
currently located within the City of San Jose and both proposed for annexation into the
City of Campbell.
