Honorable Mayor & City Council

Zone Change 82-2
Applicant:
Location:
Request:
Taco Bell on behalf of Realty Income Properties
14232 Newport Avenue (C-1 District
Change the Zoning District of the property at the northeast
corner of Newport Avenue and Mitchell from the Retail
Commercial District (C-1).
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION
The subject property is developed as a fast food facility (Taco Bell) which
was constructed in June, 1970. The property has been in the retail
commercial district since the initial passage of the Zoning Code in 1961.
Taco Bell has made a request for a drive-thru service window on the
northern side of the building. Drive-thru restaurants are not authorized
in the C-1 District (Section 9232a2(o)). Drive-thru restaurants can be
authorized in the Central Commcercial (C-2) and Commercial General (CG) by
use permit approval. This zone change approval in no way implies approval
of a use permit which will be heard by the Planning Agency on September 7,
1982.
The area has a mixture of old and new commercial developments, the most
recent being a two-story office building just southwest of this silte. Over
the years, traffic has increased along this section of Newport Avenue to
26,250 vehicle trips per day and 7,100 trips on Mitchell Avenue.
FINI)I~ & CONCLUSIONS
The area has developed from a neighborhood commercial area to a strip
commercial district. All indications are that the area will continue to
intensify in commercial development.
2. The traffic volumes along Newport Avenue are consistent with existing
volumes in the City's central business area.
The Commercial General District is the most recently developed zoning
classification which was devised by the City to aid in the growth of
commercial areas while providing mitigating measures for possible
increased environmental impacts.
