sales be allowed as a permitted use in the CC, CS, 1L and IG zoning districts, provided that a maximum of two vehicles be allowed to be temporarily stored, in conjunction with the on-line used vehicle sales, for a period not to exceed 72 hours. Planning Commission /Board of Zoning Adjustments worksession review has indicated support for these recommendations. TOD Strategy Clean-Up Items The Downtown San Leandro Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) Strategy consisted of a comprehensive land use policy change affecting a'/z mile radius around the intersection of Davis and East 14th Streets. An effort is currently underway to focus on follow-up items that need to be addressed in the City's Zoning Code, as a result of adoption of the TOD Strategy. These changes are focused on the following: Enumerating a density standard for mixed-use residential zoning, clarification of existing Single-Family and Two-Family Residential Uses in the DA Districts and other minor housekeeping actions including replacement of "CD" zoning designations with the DA-1 to DA-6 in miscellaneous Articles of the Zoning Code. Planning Commission /Board of Zoning Adjustments worksession review has indicated support for these recommendations. DRAFT ORDINANCES Please see copies of attached strike-out and red-lined versions of the Zoning Code language. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS The proposed ordinances for the adoption of Zoning Code amendments related to various use regulations and development standards changing the Fences, Walls and Hedges standards, allowing limited on-line auto sales and changes prompted by the Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) Strategy are exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to Section 15061 (b) (3). This is because the proposed ordinances have no potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. These ordinances do not, in themselves, allow the construction of any projects and therefore, have no potential for resulting in physical changes in the environment, directly or ultimately. PUBLIC OUTREACH Legal requirements for notification of this meeting included publication of a legal notice in the Daily Review and posting of the meeting agenda at City Hall a minimum of 72 hours in advance of the meeting date. Notices were also mailed to a total of four interested property owners, the San Leandro Chamber of Commerce and to the City's list of Homeowners Associations. On November 8, 2007, a joint worksession was held between the Planning Commission and the Board of Zoning Adjustments in the Sister Cities Gallery, which was also noted according to the above protocol.
