THE CITY OF TUSTIN RECOMMENDING THAT THE CITY
COUNCIL APPROVE ZONE CHANGE 07-002, AMENDING
THE ZONING DESIGNATIONS FROM PUBLIC AND
INSTITUTIONAL (P&I) TO CENTRAL COMMERCIAL (C-2)
ZONING DISTRICT TO ACCOMMODATE THE
CONSTRUCTION OF A 201-UNIT ASSISTED
LIVING/CONGREGATE CARE FACILITY AGE
RESTRICTED TO 62 YEARS OR OLDER AT 13841 RED
HILL AVENUE
The Planning Commission does hereby resolve as follows:
The Planning Commission finds and determines as follows:
A. That a proper application has been submitted by American Senior Living
Development, LLC to change zoning designation from Public and
Institutional (P&I) to Central Commercial (C-2) to accommodate the
construction of an age-restricted (62 years or older) assisted
living/congregate care facility at 13841 Red Hill Avenue;
B. That a public hearing was duly called, noticed, and held on said application
on November 13, 2007, by the Planning Commission.
C. That the proposed amendment to the zoning district is in the best interest of
the public in that it provides for the construction of a new library to replace
the existing library that is obsolete and inadequate to serve the existing and
future communities needs.
D. That the proposed zone change is consistent with General Plan Amendment
07-002 and the policies of the General Plan, as evidenced by the following
findings:
(a) The proposed zone change to Central Commercial District is
consistent with the General Plan Amendment 07-002.
(b) The project site is bounded by areas zoned Retail Commercial (C-1)
and Central Commercial (C-2) districts to the east across Red Hill
Avenue, Central Commercial (C-2) district to the south, Public and
Institutional (P&I) district to the west, and Multiple Family Residential
(R-3, 2200) and Retail Commercial districts to the north. The zone
change to Central Commercial (C-2) district would be compatible with
the surrounding zoning districts.

(c) The location of the proposed project desired by the community to
allow for improvements in the area.
D. That an Initial Study was prepared to evaluate the potential environmental
impacts associated with General Plan Amendment 07-001, Zone Change
07-002, Conditional Use Permit 07-011, and Design Review 07-02 that
concluded, with mitigation measures, potential significant impacts can be
reduced to a level of insignificance and a draft Mitigated Negative
Declaration (MND) was prepared;
The Planning Commission hereby recommends that the City Council approve Zone
Change 07-002, amending the Zoning designations from Public and Institutional
(P&I) to Central Commercial (C-2) zoning district, as identified in Exhibit A attached
hereto.
