A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION
OF THE CITY OF TUSTIN, RECOMMENDING RECON-
SIDERATION OF THE LIMITS OF FIRE ZONE NO. 1
Whereas, Fire Zone 1 classification was applied to the central
section of the City of Tustin, in the area ge~nerally known as
the intersection of Main and'E1 Camino Re~l, at a time in the
City's history when the area was the commercial "heart" of the
City, and
Whereas, at the time of the designation of Fire Zone 1-it was
anticipated that this area would ultimately comprise the area
of the most dense development, highest assessed value, and
area of greatest conflagration hazard, and
Whereas, the subsequent development of the City changed the
traffic pattern, areas of high valued commercial development,
shopping patterns of the residents, and characteristics of
the community, and
Whereas, the central commercial area of the City has not
developed in the prior anticipated manner nor is it projected
that at any time in the future a market demand will exist for
high valued commercial development within this area, and
Whereas, the stringent requirements of Fire Zone 1 increases
development costs and is one element among many factors that
impedes development and redevelopment within the area, and
Whereas, the Planning Commission is currently proposing a
development plan for the central commercial area in the desire
of stimulating the economy and bringing new economic activity
to the area.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED~that the Planning Commission
recommends to the City Council the scheduling of a public
hearing for the purpose of considering the feasibility of
removing the limits of Fire Zone 1 in the central commercial
area of the City and extending the limits to other areas
that have been developed as high valued commercial centers.
PASSED AND ADOPTED at a regular meeting of the Planning Commission,
held on the 22nd day of February, 1971.
