The Planning Commission finds and determines as follows': a. That Section 65852.2 of the Government Code of the State of California (Planning and Zoning Law) authorizes the creation of second units in single-family and multi-family residential zones and areas may be designated within the City where second units are permitted. b. That the designation of areas for second units may be based on criteria and development standards may be impo. sed. c. That a public hearing was duly called, noticed and held on the proposed amendment to the Zoning Ordinance. d. The Planning Commission hereby makes the following findings of fact: 1. Local residential units within theE-4 District and the R-3 District do not exceed the allowable density for the lot on which it is located and that second units are a residential use consistent with the existing General Plan and zoning designations for the lot. 2. The authorization of second residential units will provide partial accommodation of the housing needs specified in the Regional Allocation Housing Model to be incorporated in revisions of the Housing Element of the Tustin Area General Plan. 3. The 80-foot frontage and 10,000 square foot lots of the E-4 District can accommodate residential units without adverse impacts upon the density or neighborhood amenities of the E-4 District as related to parking accommodations and lot coverage. 4. Second units within the R-3 District are in conformance with density and development standards and lot coverage. 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 2~ 25 26 27 28 Resolution No. 2ug6 July 25, 1983 Page 2 5. Pursuant to Section 21080 (b)(17) of the.Public Resources Code 'of the State of California, the creation of a second residential unit is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act. 6. The creation of second units in residential dlstricts other than E-4 and R-3 will adversely impact the community due to the limited lot frontage available for on-street parking, the absence of on-site lot width to accommodate parking requirements and set-backs from adjoining structures, constricting of adequate light and air spaces for adjoining residential structures, and the potential for hazards .to health and safety due to restricted accessibility to second units where existing properties are developed with minimum sideyard setbacks. 7. The protection of the amenities of a residential district authorized second unit can be assured by a public hearing, use permit, and the application of criteria and development standards for the second residenti al units. 1'I. The Planning Commission hereby recommends to the City Council amendments to the Zoning Ordinance (Ordinance' 157) and the Tustin City Code as follows: 9222 RESIDENTIAL ESTATE DISTRICT (E-4) al eeee b.
