SUBJECT: PUBLIC HEARING - PLANNED DEVELOPMENT PERMIT NO. 1064 AND
ZONE CHANGE NO 2813 (TOPA MANAGEMENT COMPANY) CONTINUED FROM
12/16/88
Background
At its meeting of December 16, 1987 the City Council held a
public hearing on the above item.
Confusion arose as to the status of General Plan Amendment
No. 84 -2. This was adopted by Resolution No. 84 -148 on
October 24, 1984. The resolution itself authorized a change
in land use classification from medium Density Residential to
Commercial Office. However, there is no commercial office
category in the text of the General Plan land use element.
The map of the land use element was amended to show a general
commercial category. Of the existing land use categories,
general commercial is the closest appropriate land use
category to the desired commercial office category. From
this point, it was the Council's intention to initiate a zone
change from Trailer Park Development (TPD) to Commercial
Office (CO). The zone change was initiated by the adoption
of Resolution No. 84 -150 on November 7, 1984. However, it
was never followed through and the zoning has remained TPD.
On December 16, 1987 by a 3 :1 vote the Council made the
finding that the CPD zone is compatible with the general
commercial land use category in the General Plan land use
element.

PUBLIC HEARING - PLANNED DEVELOPMENT PERMIT NO
ZONE CHANGE NO. 2813 (TOPA MANAGEMENT COMPANY)
Background
PD -1064 AND
At its meeting of August 17, 1987, the Planing Commission
held a public hearing on the above items. The applicants
request is to construct a 27,594 sq. ft. shopping center on a
2.23 acre site. The site is presently zoned T -P -D Trailer
Park Development and will require a zone change to a
commercial zone to accommodate the proposed development.
An important issue is the General Plan classification of this
property. General Plan Amendment No. 84 -2, adopted by
Resolution No. 84 -148 on October 24, 1984 classified this and
twenty (20) acres of surrounding property as "Commercial -
Of£ice ". Only a small portion of the C -0 classified land is
proposed for retail commercial development . The land use
compatibility matrix of the General Plan shows all commercial
zones as compatible with all commercial land use categories;
therefore, staff is of the opinion that the requested C -2
zone (or the C -P -D zone preferred by staff) is generally
consistent with the General Plan.
Discussion
The Planning Commission felt that the proposed project was
not in keeping with the intent of the General Plan. The
Commission would have preferred that it were a smaller
commercial project that would serve as support to larger
office project. The project site does have the capability to
support an adjacent use since it occupies only 2.23 acres and
is surrounded by twenty (20) acres of land on both the west,
southwest, and south of land classified as commercial -

office by the General Plan. Also, the design of the shopping
center allows for pass - through access to the adjacent
parcel to the west. Both vehicular and pedestrian access are
proposed.
An alternative that the Council may wish to consider is the
phasing of the shopping center. It is proposed as three
separate buildings that could be phased if necessary.
Building "B:" as shown on the plans could be built first,
with buildings "A" and "C" as single or separate future
phasing.
Additionally, state law requires that when a trailer park is
proposed for closure, a relocation impact report must be
completed by the applicant and reviewed and considered by the
City Council prior to rendering a decision affecting the site
of the trailer park. The Council held a public hearing on
the report and approved the report on November 23, 2987.
Recommendation
Approve a change of zone from T -P -D To C -P -D Commercial
Planned Development, and the requested planned development
permit.
1. If the Council desires to approve these requests, the
findings outlined in the attached staff repor:Cs dated
August 13, 1987 must be made.
2. Also, it is advised that Council find that the
proposed C -P -D zone is consistent with the General
Plan.
3. Direct staff to prepare a resolution approving the
planned development permit and draft ordinance for
introduction authorizing the change of zone at its
next regulary scheduled meeting of January 6, 1988.

Site & Project History:July 10, 1962: Ordinance No. 1235 was adopted by the
County of Ventura changing the zone classification of the
subject property (only), to TPD /Trailer Park Development.
This zone still exists today and is now proposed to be
changed as part of the proposed project.
December 18, 1979 : The General Plan Land Use Element of
the County that was in effect prior to the incorporation of
the City of Moorpark classified the site and vicinity
southwest of the intersection of Los Angeles Avenue and
Moorpark Road as Residential Medium Density.
November 2, 1983: Four months after the incorporation of
the City of Moorpark. The City adopted the Land Use Element
of the Moorpark Community Plan of the Ventura County General
Plan as its own land use element. The element designated
the subject property as General Commercial
October 24, 1984: Resolution No. 84 -148 adopted by the

Description: The proposed shopping center is arranged in a complex of
three (3) separate buildings a total of 21 units are located
throughout the center. Units 1 - 6 are in Building "A ";
units 7 - 19 in Building "B" and units 20 & 21 are located
in Building "C ", which lies as a free standing pad at the
street corner. The two major buildings are connected by an
open area to allow future pedestrian circulation to the
west. Variations in the building footprint is shown on the
site plan. Long straight lines of storefront arcade are
avoided by this design. The site is not crowded with
free - standing pads as is the case with other neighborhood
centers.

(Related Case No.: Zone Change No. 2813 Page 3
Applicant: TOPA MANAGEMENT PARTNERSHIP
Date of Meeting: August 17, 1987
The general architectural style is "town and country" which
makes predominant use of mission clay tile as the roofing
material, exposed rafter tails and heavy use of wood
siding. Building facade materials consist of split face and
fluted split face block; some use of accent stucco bands
will be made as well. An earth tone palette will be the
general color scheme. Rear elevations will offer some
change in color texture, and relief so as not to provide
featureless blank walls as a rear elevation.
Parking: The base parking requirement for the entire center is one
parking space per 300 square feet of floor area. The gross
floor area is 27,594 square feet which requires 92 parking
spaces. A total of 112 parking spaces are provided. This
will enable some restaurant uses in the center. The 20
additional spaces would accommodate up to 60 restaurant
seats through the center. Presently units 6 and 7 are
intended to be leased as restaurant uses.
Access: Access to the site is provided by two (2) driveways, one
each on Los Angeles Avenue and Moorpark Road. Both
driveways are set well back from the intersection. The Los
Angeles Avenue driveway is approximately 176 feet from the
corner radius return and the Moorpark Road curb cut is
approximately 128 feet away. Presently there is no need to
restrict turning movements into or out of the site.
Eventually both street frontages are expected to have a
raised center median which will cause movements to be
limited.
Additionally access is provided to the adjacent parcels west
and south. A 25 foot wide landscaped area adjacent to units
1 and 19, serve as a future access point. In the interim
the areas will remain as additional landscape setbacks. At
such time as the adjacent parcels are developed and the City
determines that through access is necessary, then the
landscaped areas will be required to be opened, paved and
connected to the adjoining parcels. This will cause the
loss of three (3) parking spaces per each access point.
Also pedestrian access to the parcel to the west has been
provided as well in the event of future development of the
parcel to the west.
Landscaping: Site landscaping consists of a minimum of a 15 foot front
landscaped setback. At the corner a 30 foot landscaped
setback is provided. At the extreme ends of the property a
40 feet landscaped setback is provided. (However, only 15
feet of this area will remain after the through access
points are open). The areas between parking bays will be
landscaped as well with 10 wide planters. Additional
landscaping will be provided at the corner between the two
large buildings with a theme structure above.

(Related Case No.: Zone Change No. 2813 Page 4
Applicant: TOPA MANAGEMENT PARTNERSHIP
Date of Meeting: August 17, 1987
Public Improvements: Existing improvements consist solely of asphalt curb on
both street frontages. No sidewalk is present. The one
existing driveway on Los Angeles Avenue is asphalt paved as
well. Required public improvements of the project site will
be a meandering sidewalk of five (5) ft. on both street
frontages with intregal curb and gutter and 30 ft. wide
driveway aprons.
Discussion: The site of the proposed center is at the southwest
corner of Moorpark Road and Los Angeles Avenue. This is the
busiest intersection for traffic volume in the City.
Traffic generation is not expected to be a significant
factor regarding this project. A major portion of the use
of the center will be pass by traffic. Users of the
shopping center, are anticipated to be enroute to multiple
destinations much of the time when using this site. Its
location is a central one, convenient to area residents but
not an intrusion to any existing neighborhoods. Although
most surrounding property is zoned for single family
residential, it is not developed in a typical R -1 pattern.
The general plan recognizes the entire vicinity of the
project site as suitable for commercial use. The site plan
and design of the center may tend to give it the appearance
of many typical neighborhood shopping centers. However, the
break up into two main buildings with pedestrian pass
through access the variation in the footprint, and the
increased setback and landscaping make this project more
acceptable.
Housing displacement will occur as a result of the proposed
project. This is identified in the negative declaration
(attached). A trailer park with 27 trailers presently
exists on the site. It is the City Council's intent to have
the Planning Commission review the usual matters pertinent
to the requested planned development permit and zone
change. The subject of the relocation will be discussed at
a separate public hearing on the state required impact
report of the effects of the housing displacement. Prior to
consideration of the planned development permit or the zone
change the Council will hold its hearing on the impact
report. Although the design details of the project are to
be the Commission's primary concern, the Commission is not
altogether precluded from discussing the housing
displacement issue.

Recommended Action: 1. Make the following findings:
August 13, 1987
Page 5
a. The proposed uses and design of the proposed
project would be consistent with the purposed,
intent, guidelines, standards, policies and
provisions of the City's General Plan and
Chapters 1 and 2 of the Ordinance Code;
b. The proposed uses would not impair the integrity
and character of the zone in which they are to
be located; as part of its action the Planning
Commission finds that the proposed zone
classification for the project site is
compatible with the general plan.
C. The proposed uses would be compatible with land
uses permitted within the General Plan land use
designations and the zones in the general area
where the uses are to be located;
d. The proposed uses would not be detrimental to
the public interest, health safety, convenience
or welfare.
2. Recommend to the City Council approval of the attached
Negative Declaration as having been completed in
compliance with State CEQA Guidelines. As part of its
recommendation, the Planning Commission has reviewed
and considered the information contained in the
Negative Declaration.
3. Direct staff to prepare a resolution recommending to
the City Council to conditionally approve Planned
Development Permit No. 1064 for consideration_ at its
next regular meeting_of September 8, 1987.
Final Disposition: Pursuant to Resolution No. 86 -276, this is a Commercial
Planned Development of more than 20,000 square feet.
Therefore the Planning Commission's action on this matter
will be a recommendation to the City Council. The Council
will be required to hold a public hearing on this matter.

A request to change the zone from TPD Trailer Park Development
to C -2 General Commercial.
The project site is approximately 2.23 acres in size and
located at the southwest corner of Los Angeles Avenue and
Moorpark Road.
Assessor Parcel No.:506 -0- 020 -36.
Site Size: 97,298 square feet (2.23 acres)
Summary: Zone Change No. 2813 is proposed to facilitate construction
of a 27,594 sq.ft retail shopping center. A planned
development permit is also required (see related Case No.
PD- 1064).
Recommendations: Find that the zone change will not have a significant
effect on the environment and recommend to the City Council for
a change in zone from Trailer Park Development to Commercial
Planned Development for the subject site.

g. Compatibility of proposed project with zoning:
Will bring the property into conformance with the adopted General Plan and
amendments thereto.
h. General Plan Designation:
Commercial Office
i. Applicable Land Use Regulations:
Moorpark General Plan
II. History:
a. General Plan Amendment 84 -2 was approved by the City on October 24, 1984,
which amended the Land Use Element to Commercial Office.
b. Zone Change Case No. 2813 was filed on March 23, 1987.
III. Project, Staff Testimony and Proposed Findings:
a. Applicable Land Use Regulations:
1. General Plan.
2. The General Plan lists the following goals and policies.
(See Excerpt from the Land Use Element of the General Plan_
Existing and adjacent land use:
a. To the north and west of the subject site are single family residences, to
the east is a service station and a shopping center (under construction),
south is a construction company office and yard.
Natural features and infrastructure:
1. Natural features: The site is relatively flat with gentle slope to the
arroyo.
Case No.: Zone Change No. 2813
Applicant: TOPA MANAGEMENT PARTNERSHIP
Date of Meeting: August 17, 1987
August 13, 1987
Page 3
2. Infrastructure:
a. Sanitation - the subject site is connected to the local sewer system.
b. Water - The project site is located within Water Works District No.
1. Sufficient resources exists to service the site.
C. Flood Control - Flooding problems are not associated with this site.
d. Police and Fire - This project does not appear to create additional
costs for surveillance. Existing fire protection facilities within
the area are adequate to service the site. The project is not
located in a high fire hazard area.
e. Traffic and Circulation - The proposed change in zone will increase
trips per day. However, this will be analyzed at the time of
application for a Planned Development Permit.
Public Comments Received
No written comments have been received at the present time addressing the proposed
change of zone.
IV. Zoning Compliance
Section 65860 of the California Government Code states that zoning be consistent
with the officially adopted General Plan of any City of the County. And in the
event that a Zoning Ordinance becomes inconsistent with a General Plan by reason of
amendment to such a plan, or any element of such a plan, such a Zoning Ordinance
shall be amended within a reasonable time so that it is consistent with the General
Plan as amended. The requested change of zone is generally consistent with the
City's adopted general plan, identified by Table 9 of the land use element as
amended by Resolution No. 86 -318.
Based upon the above, the following findings would be required:
a. The proposed rezoning is consistent with the Moorpark General Plan.
b. The public convenience, general welfare and good zoning practice justifies
the zone change.
C. The effects of this zone change has considered the housing needs of the
region and balanced those needs against the public service needs of its
residents and available fiscal and environmental resources.
Case No.: Zone Change No. 2813
Applicant: TOPA MANAGEMENT PARTNERSHIP
Date of Meeting: August 17, 1987
V. Fnvironmental Impacts
August 13, 1987
Page 4
a. An initial study and Negative Declaration has been completed. A finding
has been made that the project will not have a significant effect on the
environment.
VI. Discussion
1. If the Planning Commission recommends a Commercial zone for the subject
site, it would be compatible with adjacent residentially zoned land and
land within the vicinity.
2. To the west and south of the subject site is also designated a Commercial
Office on the General Plan. A future zone change request on the adjacent
property would create consistent zoning in the vicinity.
3. Since the General Plan Amendment was approved by the City Council
approximately 2 years ago (October 24, 1984), State Law states that a
municipality should have consistency between the General Plan and zoning
within a "reasonable time period ". Therefore, a zone change should occur
soon, to meet State Law requirements but may be postponed until
consideration of a Planned Development.
4. The applicant has applied for a change of zone from TPD Trailer Park
Development to C -2 General Commercial to facilitate construction of a
proposed shopping center. The C -2 zone would permit the proposed use.
However, the CPD Commercial Planned Development zone is preferred by the
staff and would still permit the proposed project. Both zones still
require a planned development permit. To utilize the CPD zone would make
use of a more current zoning practice.
5. A discrepancy presently exists with respect to City records reflecting the
designated general plan land use for this parcel. The present map of the
land use element of the general plan shows a C -2 general commercial land
use category. However, the vicinity of the subject property was amended
by Resolution No. 84 -148 on October 24, 1984 to place this and
surrounding property to the west and south in a "Commercial Office"
category. The commercial land use categories in the land use element are
generally consistent with either the proposed C -2 or recommended CPD zone.
VII. Summary
The project is located in an area determined by an amendment to the General Plan as
Commercial Office. The zone change request is compatible with surrounding uses and
zoning according to Table 9 of the General Plan Land Use Element.
Case No.: Zone Change No. 2813 August 13, 1987

b. Recommend the staff preferred alternative of Commercial Planned Development..
C. Deny the zone change request.
IX. Recommendation
a. Make the following findings:
1. The proposed project will not have a significant effect on the
environment and that this Commission has reviewed and considered
the information contained in the Negative Declaration and approved
the attached Negative Declaration having been completed in
2. Approve the staff requested alternative of the CPD for the subject
property. compliance with State CEQA Guidelines issued thereunder;
and
b. Direct staff to prepare a resolution recommending approval to the City
Council of Zone Change No. 2813.

21. MANDATORY FINDINGS OF SIGNIFICANCE.
a. Does the project have the potential to degrade
the quality of the environment, substantially
reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species,
cause a fish or wildlife population to drop
below self- sustaining levels, threaten to
eliminate a plant or animal community, reduce
the number or restrict the range of a rare or
endangered plant or animal or eliminate important
examples of the major periods of California
history or prehistory? x
b. Does the project have the potential to achieve
short -term, to the disadvantage of long -term,
environmental goals? (A short -term impact on
the environment is one which occurs in a
relatively brief, definitive period of time
while long -term impacts will endure well into
the future.)
c. Does the project have impacts which are individu-
ally limited, but cumulatively considerable?
(A project may impact on two or more separate
resources where impact on ea.h resource is
relatively small, but where the effect of the
total of those impacts on the environment is —
significant.)
d. Does the project have environmental effects
which will cause substantial adverse effects
on human beings, either directly or indirectly.
III. RECOMMENDATION
On the basis of this initial evaluation:
_ In conformance with Section 15060 of the State EIR Guidelines, I find
with certainity that the proposal would not have a significant impact
on the environment.
I find the proposed project is categorically exempt pursuant to
class
I find the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on
the environment, and a NEGATIVE DECLARATIOdN. should be prepared.
I find that although the proposed project could have a significant
effect on the environment, there will not be a significant effect in
this case because the mitigation measures described on an attached
sheet could be applied to the project. A MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION
SHOULD BE PREPARED.
_ I find proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the
environment, and ail ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required.
_ I find proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the
environment, and an ADDENDUM to an existing certified Environmental
Impact Report is required.
I find the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the
environment, and this effect is adequately addressed in a certified
Environmental Impact Report, and thus SUBSEQUENT USE of the existing
EIR is required.

ADDENDUM_TO.INITIAL STUDY
The following are responses to "yes" and "maybe" responses to the
Initial study.
l.b. As a result of grading and site preparation, displacement,
compaction and over.covering of soil will occur. These are
construction impacts and will be short term. No long range
impacts are anticipated due to the necessary pre- construction
earthwork.
C. The site as it presently exists, is below street grade. To
facilitate construction of the proposed shopping center,
elevating of the site to street grade will be required. No
significant impact is expected as a result of this change in
topography. A flat developable construction site will result
with appropriate drainage facilities as required by the City.
2.b. Although no specific tenants are identified at present,
restaurant uses may occur in the shopping center when the
leasing period begins. The possibility exist that though the
use of exhaust fans, objectionable odors may be transmitted.
The potential for this problem is minimal and is not
anticipated to be an adverse impact. Also, the project is
conditioned to provide smoke chamber exhaust system and
filters to the satisfaction of the City.
d. The proposed project when considered collectively with other
project proposals in the City may contribute to cumulative
Adverse impacts on air quality in the vicinity. There is no
present mitigation measure available at this time inasmi:ch as
single projects are concerned.
3.b. A relatively small amount of the existing site is paved.
The proposed project with only 14,872 sq.ft. of landscaping
out of 2.12 acres will result in an increase of surface area
impervious to water, this will increase the rate and amount
of surface runoff. However, existing storm drains in the
vicinity are adequate to accommodate the increased runoff.
6.a. The primary on site source of noise generation is
anticipated to emanate from vehicular traffic. At present
the existing trailer park has thirty -one (31) trailers. Even
assuming a total of 62 cars for the entire park, this
represents less than two thirds of the parking spaces due to
be provided in the shopping center. This would indicate a
minimum of a 50% increase in automobiles utilizing the site
at a peak period; therefore vehicular noise will similarly be
increased. However, more of the potential uses of the
slopping center are likely to be daytime and early evening
users, thereby limiting the time of day to reasonable hours
when potential noise problems might occur.

ADDENDUM TO INITIAL STUDY
7. New light and glare will be introduced as a result of the
proposed project. Illumination from stores signs, parking
lots and vehicular traffic will contribute to an increase in
existing light and glare.
The particular sitting of the buildings that is proposed on
the site is expected to minimize transmission of light and
glare to adjacent property. The overall impact of new light
and glare is not expected to adversely impact the vicinity.
8. A substantial alteration of the present land use will occur
as a result of this proposal. A 31 space trailer park will
be replaced with a 29,029 sq.ft. shopping center.
11. The proposal will alter the location, distribution, and
density of the human population of the area by changing a
residential use to a commercial use. The residential uses
will be dispersed.
12. Due to the closure of a trailer park, a demand for
replacement trailer spaces will be created. Replacement
trailer space is a regional problem. Very limited
replacement spaces are known to exist within Ventura County.
Alternatives dealing with other forms of housing for the
residents of the trailer park are limited. Most qualify as
low and moderate income families. Federally assisted housing
programs subsidizing rents to qualified families have long
waiting lists. No affordable housing is currently available
within Moorpark. Although the park has space for 31 trailers
only 27 are currently occupied. Relocation assistance will
be provided by the applicant.
1.3.a. A substantial amount of additional vehicle movement will be
generated by this project. However, the traffic generated
will not significantly .impact key intersections in the City.
Please refer to the traffic study dated July 28, 1987 by
Linnscott, Law, and Greenspan. Even with certain
intersection improvements made, the level of service is not
expected to change. The study specifically notes that any
increase in the intersection capacity utilization is not
expected to be considered significant. This is due to the
estimation that many of the shopping center patrons are
probably already driving by the site.
b. A demand for new parking will. be created by the project
proposal. However current Municipal Code requirements will
require a specific number of spaces to serve the proposed
project.

ADDENDUM_ TO INITIAL STUDY
C. A substantial impact may occur with respect to State
Highways 23 and 118, due to the conversion of the site to a
shopping center and the resultant increase. However design
features of number of driveways and their remote locations
with respect to the corner of the site will. help mitigate the
impact on the two State Highways.
f. An increase in traffic hazards with respect to motor
vehicles, bicyclists and pedestrians will. occur as in the
case in any development project where the site potential is
intensified. Design features of the site such as setbacks,
sight distance requirements driveway and aisle widths will
help mitigate traffic safety concerns and potential hazards.
21.c. A cumulative impact will result with respect to traffic. The
project alone is not expected to significantly impact the
vicinity or the City as a whole. However i.t will have a
cumulative impact when considered with other existing
projects and projects pending approval.

Re: P D 1064
Honorable Members of the Moorpark City Council:
This letter is to request your consideration for
relief from some of the conditions imposed upon our
proposed development at Los Angeles Avenue and Spring Road.
The conditions requiring your consideration are:
Community Development Department Conditions:
l.j. The condition requires us to defend the City against
any action brought against the City as a result of
issuing the permit.
If we comply with all ordinances it seems unfair
to be required to defend what would have to be an attack of
a City Ordinance. To the extent a variance or conditional
use permit were granted, then we would assume the risk and
responsibility but only to the extent of that variance or
conditional use not with regard to existing City ordinances.
City Engineer Conditions:
l.c. Road Improvements.
While we do not agree that the City can establish
a rational connection between the need for the widening
of both streets and the impact of our project we will agree
to the dedication of 9' on Los Angeles Avenue and 4' on Spring
Road as required. We will also complete the required road
way improvements on the south side of Los Angeles Avenue and
and the west side of Spring Road for the frontage of our
property on both streets. However, we feel that the traffic
signal modification is a benefit and requirement which extends
far beyond and need caused by our development and we feel
that the cost should be borne by the Los Angeles Avenue

Dear Ms. Robinson:
At your request, over the past six weeks Topa has been in
contact with your attorney, Saul Reiss. During our last
conversation Topa made a settlement offer which was viewed both
by Topa and Mr. Reiss as reasonable. Subsequent to that
conversation we were advised by Mr. Reiss that he no longer
represents you and that we should contact you directly.
Topa has been equitable in its settlements with other residents
at the trailer park. It has always been our intention to do the
same with you. However this is difficult, if not impossible,
without both communication and cooperation on both of our parts.
To date you have not been willing to do either.
Prior to contact by your attorney's office several calls were
made to you and none were returned. Since we received
notification that you are no longer represented by Mr. Reiss I
have left several messages on your answering service machine but
to date none have been returned. Yesterday we received your
letter saying you have no place to relocate. We would be happy
to provide you assistance in relocation alternatives however we
will need to discuss the parameters. I encourage you to please
contact me.
Your continued unwillingness to communicate will leave us no
choice but to pursue our legal options.
Sincerely,
TOPA MANAGEMENT COMPANY

sented to Council at its meeting of October 17, 1984, and made

sequently divided into GPA -84 -1, GPA -84 -2 and GPA- 84 -3). Motion
carried by the following roll call vote:

There was discussion regarding the subsequent use of the environ-

Plan Amendment 83 -1 ", dated September 28,`1983, which concerned
properties covered by GPA -84 -1, GPA -84 -2 and GPA -84 -3, with con-
cern as to whether or not it would be deemed adequate for proposed
GPA -84 -4, which would encompass the balance of the properties the
subject of the noticed public hearing of October 17, 1984, as
depicted on EXHIBIT B, hereina/(bove referred to.
The Director of Public Works' gave a verbal report on the matter,
and at the request of Councilmember Straughan, said report is
set forth in this record, substantially as follows:
"The General Plan presently designates the S & K property
and 70% of the Catholic Church property as General
Commercial.
The remaining 30% of the Church site is Medium -Low Density
Residential. No significant site issues associated with
a change in land use designation have been identified.
Also, until about 3 years ago, the S & K property was
designated as Medium -Low Residential.
Cumulative environmental impacts would include schools,
water, sewer, air quality and regional growth plans --
208/AQMP. Traffic impacts would be reduced with a change
to residential use. The earlier action this evening on
GPA -84 -2 reduced cumulative population projections within
the City. If the discussed changes to the S & K and
Catholic Church properties were adopted, the net population
increase would be 491 people. The EIR for GPA -84 -2 dis-
-4-
cussed the cumulative effects of population changes of
similar amounts and this report would be adequate for
the proposed S & K and Catholic Church properties."
Moved by Councilmember Straughan and seconded by Councilmember
Harper that staff prepare and process an.amendment to the General
Plan, to be designated as GPA -84 -4, to cover the balance of the
promo ertties shown on EXHIBIT hereinabove referred to, and that
the environmental document entitled. "Environmental Impact Report,
General Plan Amendment 83 -1 ", dated September 28, 1983, be
reviewed as to its adequacy for subsequent use for said General
Plan Amendment No. GPA -84 -4. Motion carried by the following
roll call vote:
AYES: Councilmembers Straughan, Harper, Beaulieu,
Prieto and Mayor Yancy- Sutton;
NOES: None;
ABSENT: None.
RECESS

Dear Mr. Richards and Planning Commission, Members:
I air; unable
to
attend the December 16, 1987, Wednesday
Planning Commission
Meeting so this
letter plus the last letter I wrote you
will have to be my
voice.
I still have
not
found a relocatable site either, because
of unavailability or
financially
not
feasible.
So if you
do
approve the Tapo Management Company's
Commercial Rezoning
application,
I will
then become one of the "homeless ". I
truly hope this does
not happen.
I will have no where to go or live.
My home is bought and paid for and yet I will join the many other "homeless"
through no fault of my own. I am a tax paying citizen of Moorpark, does this
matter?
Does anyone Cure? (Besides me)
I THINK NOT.
