IN,THE GENERAL AREA.BETWEEN PALACE,AVENUE,
NINETEENTH, STREET.,_POMONA AVENUE, AND
HAMILTON STREET, AND,. BETWEEN BERNARD'_
STREET,:.CHARLE STREET,.MAPLE AVENUE, AND
HAMILTON STREET,;'DECLARING SAID ORDINANCE -
TO BE AN URGENCY.ORDINANCE AND SETTING
FORTH THE REASONS .THEREFOR.
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COSTA MESA DOES -HEREBY
ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
'SECTION 1. The City Council of. .the Ci.ty.of Costa Mesa
finds and declares that.the health, safety, and general
welfare of the community requires. the prohibition of"uses in
certain areas which may be in conflict with a contemplated
zoning proposal.
`Accordingly, the following urgency. measure is adopted.
SECTION 2. All uses.are-pr.ohibi.ted in a general area
'bounded by Hamilton Street on.the north, 19th Street on the
south, Pomona Avenue on the east, and Palace Avenue on the
west; and bounded by -Hamilton Street on..the,nor.th,,Bernard
Street on'.the south,:Map.le Avenue on -the west, and Charle
Street on the east,, excluding.therefrom.certain .territory,
all as appears on maps.attached.to .this Ordinance marked
Exhibit "A" and' -Exhibit "B" and by :this specific reference
made'' part hereof.
The City staff is hereby directed, not to issue any
permits of.any kind for construction or use within the
aforementioned area.for_the duration of -this Ordinance,
provided .that any application for City action that has been
filed- with the City, or permit issued by. -the. City, within the
said area: before: the. effective ' -date of this...Ordinance; shall
not'be denied,.enjoined,.or .otherwise prevented from being
pursued or completed solely by reason of this Ordinance
having been adopted. ..Such projects. may be.processed or
completed if otherwise approved by:the-City.
-SECTION 3. The City Council finds and declares that
the protection of the health, safety, and general welfare of
the community requires. that this Ordinance be.adop.ted as an
urgency measure,.pursuant to .S.ection 65858,. California
Government Code.
The reasons in support ofthe necessity of an urgency
measure.are as follows:
Existing zoning in. the Study -Area allowsconstruction
of multiple units at R3 and -R4 -densities on narrow, deep
lots. Such developmentis creating unsafe fire protection
conditions due'to inadequate..water mains and inadequate and
obsolete hydrants.. Traffic circulation efficiency is also
reduced due to the necessity for access to..each narrow lot
and the unimproved status of Palace and -Sterling Avenues.
The continuation of R3 and R4 densities on .these narrow,
deep lots is contributing to the blight of this section of
the City. The prevention of.neighborhood.blight requires
that existing.public policy conflicts be resolved prior to
allowing further development.
SECTION 4. This Ordinance shall. take effect and be in
full force immediately from and after its passage, and prior
to the expiration of.. -fifteen (15) days from the passage
thereof, shall be publ.i.shed.once in the Orange Coast Daily
Pilot, a newspaper of"general circulation, printed and
published in the City of Costa Mesa, together with the names
of the members of the City Council voting for. and against
the same.
