Minutes - San Leandro City Council Meeting - February 1, 1993 Page - 10 - PUBLIC HEARINGS (continued) zone, the use becomes a legal , non-conforming use. However, he said this situation is just the opposite; the re-zone would go from more restrictive to less restrictive, so conditions that pertain to the I-P zoning would not carry over to the I-2 zone, and the property owner would have no legal obligation to carry on with any improvements. He said property may not be zoned conditionally. He said, when property is re-zoned, the only conditions are those which are specific to the Zoning Ordinance. Council Member Faria asked, if the property were re-zoned to I-2, would it be the new or old I-2 zone. Mr. Meyers said the zoning would be the current I-2 because, although the new Zoning Code is adopted, it is not operative until the Zoning Maps themselves are adopted. Council Member Myers asked, if this property were re-zoned to I-2, could the City not make a Condition that they keep the I-2 improvements. Mr. Meyers said, if they re-zone the property and the new Zoning Code then comes before them, when the property is redeveloped they would have to comply with the new Zoning Code. Norm Weisbrod said there are three industrial zones in the new Zoning Code and these properties could be placed in any of them. He described the setbacks, landscaping, and building coverages in the three zoning districts. Steve Meyers, in response to Council questions, said that, until the City Council adopts the Zoning Maps, the current provisions of the Zoning Ordinance would be in effect for these properties. In response to questions, Mr. Weisbrod said any development in. the ' I-P District requires Site Development Review by the Site Development Subcommittee.

He said, if the property is re-zoned to I-2, those Conditions will no longer apply because the I-2 General Industrial District does not require such conditions. Council Member Perry asked if the City Council could apply an interim zone on the properties indicating that they are being studied until the • new Zoning Code is adopted. Mr. Meyers said the matter that was appealed to the City council is on the re-zoning to I-2, and the City Council would have to do a new Hearing to apply an interim study zone. He said the City Council could re-zone the property and not make the Ordinance operative until the new Zoning Code was operative or they could table the matter until the new Zoning Maps are approved. Council Member Faria asked if Zoning Maps would be adopted in whole or in pieces. Steve Emslie, Planning Manager, said the Maps would be adopted in whole and would probably be presented to the Planning Commission around May or June of this year and to the City Council in July or August. He said staff is currently meeting with every
