This being the time and place for the Public Hearing on the above matter, Kathleen Grady, Associate Planner, said the subject property is a single- family residence which was severely damaged in the October earthquake. She said the Applicant, Mrs. Arellano, had applied for FEMA aid and subsequently became ill . She has now obtained funding to build a two- to three-unit rental on the site to support herself. She said the current C-2 zoning is inconsistent with the existing single-family use and showed slides showing the surrounding properties, which are primarily multi -family. She said that the Planning Commission recommends that the City Council adopt the Negative Declaration and approve the re-zoning. The Hearing was then opened to the public. There being no comments from the public, on motion of Council Member Santos,- seconded by Council Member Perry, and carried unanimously, the Public Hearing was closed.

Martin Vitz, City Planner, said that the three Public Hearings are related to Amendments to the current Zoning Code. He said they have been reviewed by the Zoning Code Advisory Committee and recommended to the Planning Commission which held Hearings in December and which recommends City Council approval .
