WHEREAS, at its meeting of August 27, 2013, the Planning Commission
conducted a duly-noticed public hearing on Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 2013-04:

WHEREAS, at its meeting of September 4, 2013, the City Council conducted a
duly-noticed public hearing on Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 2013-04: an
Amendment to Section A (Retail and Service Uses) of Table 17.020.060 of Section
17.020.060 (Permitted Uses in Commercial and Industrial Zones) of Title 17 (Zoning) of
the Moorpark Municipal Code to allow retail uses in the M-1 Zone with a Conditional
Use Permit when immediately adjacent to a freeway interchange, received public
testimony on the proposed amendments, and after receiving oral and written public
testimony, closed the public hearing and reached a decision; and
WHEREAS, the Community Development Director determined that this project is
exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act in accordance
with Section 15301 (Class 1, Existing Facilities) of the California Code of Regulations
(CEQA Guidelines), in that the Zoning Ordinance Amendment would only apply to two
sites that are already fully developed.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MOORPARK
DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENTATION: The City Council has
reviewed the Community Development Director's determination that the proposed
Zoning Ordinance Amendment qualif ies for a Categorical Exemption from the provisions
of the California Environmental Quality Act in accordance with Section 15301 (Class 1,
1
Ordinance No. 419
Page 2
Existing Facilities) of the California Code of Regulations (CEQA Guidelines), in that the
Zoning Ordinance Amendment would only apply to two sites that are already fully
developed. Because these sites are already fully developed, the City Council finds that
there is no substantial evidence that it will have the potential for causing a significant
effect on the environment. The City Council has reviewed the Community Development
Department's determination of exemption, and based on its own independent judgment,
concurs in staffs determination of exemption.
SECTION 2. GENERAL PLAN AND SPECIFIC PLAN CONSISTENCY: The
City Council finds Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 2013-04 to be consistent with the
City of Moorpark General Plan and all adopted Specific Plans in that Goal 7 of the Land
Use Element of the General Plan is to "Provide for a variety of commercial facilities
which serve community residents and meet regional needs," and Goal 8 of the Land
Use Element of the General Plan is to "Provide for new commercial development which
is compatible with surrounding land uses." The proposal to allow retail uses in the M-1
zone on properties immediately adjacent to a freeway interchange is compatible with
the existing and allowable uses in the M-1 zone, which already allows retail uses in up
to 20 percent of the building area.
SECTION 3. CODE AMENDMENT. Section A (Retail and Service Uses) of
Table 17.020.060 of Section 17.020.060 (Permitted Uses in Commercial and Industrial
Zones) of Title 17 (Zoning) of the Moorpark Municipal Code is hereby amended as
shown in Exhibit A: Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 2013-04.
SECTION 4. If any section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase, part or
portion of this ordinance is for any reason held to be invalid or unconstitutional by any
court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining
portions of this ordinance. The City Council declares that it would have adopted this
ordinance and each section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase, part or portion thereof,
irrespective of the fact that any one or more section, subsections, sentences, clauses,
phrases, parts or portions be declared invalid or unconstitutional.
SECTION 5. This Ordinance shall become effective thirty (30) days after its
passage and adoption.
