City Council Minutes - Final June 11, 2024
Sale of Vehicles on All City Owned/Controlled Property (Kelly Garry)
City Attorney Kelly Garry advised that this item was considered and introduced by the

Boulevard and Beachcomber Boulevard on the Island. Ms. Garry said the proposed
ordinance prohibits a vehicle to be parked or displayed for the primary purpose of
advertising the vehicle for sale upon any city-owned or city-controlled property.
Mayor Sheehy opened the public hearing. There being no comments, he closed the public
hearing.

APN 120-03-046, a 10-Acre Metes & Bounds Parcel, from Light Industrial (LI)
District to Industrial (I) District (Chris Gilbert)
Planning Division Manager Chris Gilbert advised that the subject property is located at
2305 Victoria Farms Road and accessed through an easement through Victoria Farms
Road through the neighboring property. He said the parcel is approximately 10-acres and
was rezoned in 2020 to Light-Industrial (LI) to permit the applicant to conduct certain
activities that fall under the category of heavy industry, which is only permitted in the
Industrial (I) District for which the applicant has filed the new application. He said zoning
on the property is LI with all surrounding zoning being LI or I. Mr. Gilbert added that the
General Plan map shows the entire area as employment which is consistent with the
proposed zoning. He said based on the findings, the Development Review Committee
recommends approval of this application and noted that the Planning Commission
recommended approval on May 15, 2024.
Mr. and Mrs. Wilde, applicants, were present remotely and did not have any comments or
questions.
Mayor Sheehy opened the public hearing. There being no comments, he closed the public

7.5 ID 24-4291 Adopt Resolution 24-3751 Approving a Minor General Plan Amendment Revising
the Future Land Use Map Designations for 2778 and 2786 McCulloch Boulevard N.,
Tract 121, Block 10, Lots 2 and 3, Containing 0.57 Acres, from Low Density
Residential to High Density Residential (Chris Gilbert)
Mr. Gilbert advised that the item before the council is the land use component of two
hearings tonight on this item. He said the subject properties are located at 2778 and 2786
McCulloch Boulevard North and are approximately 0.57 acres. He explained the
applicant intends to construct nine new dwelling units on the subject properties which are
currently zoned Low-Density Residential (R-3) on the General Plan map that permits four
to six units per acre and is compatible with part of the surrounding area; however, it does
not match the overlying zoning of R-3 and the remainder of the area shown on the zoning
map that permits four to ten units per acre. The applicant is requesting High-Density
Residential which would be compatible with the R-3 zoning that is already in place. Mr.
Gilbert explained that approval of this amendment will clean up the discrepancy between
the land use map and existing zoning. He noted that staff plans to address the larger issue
of these major areas being in conflict with zoning all across the city with the upcoming
General Plan update due in 2026. Mr. Gilbert explained that the zoning on the property
and surrounding parcels to the north, east, and west is R-3, Limited Multiple-Family
Residential, which is not consistent with the underlying land use category. He said being
that the applicant is requesting to add a PD rezone to the R-3 zoning to permit a higher
unit density, the underlying land use is required to be amended to be consistent with the
zoning. Mr. Gilbert concluded that based on the finding, the Development Review
Committee recommends approval of this application and added that the Planning
Commission recommended approval on May 15, 2024.
Discussion ensued related to the process, timeline, and fees for rezone applications.
Mayor Sheehy opened the public hearing. There being no comments, he closed the public
hearing.
Vice Mayor Moses moved to adopt Resolution 24-3751 approving a Minor General
Plan Amendment revising the Future Land Use Map Designations for 2778 and 2786
McCulloch Boulevard N., Tract 121, Block 10, Lots 2 and 3, from Low Density
Residential to High Density Residential, seconded by Councilmember Dolan, and

7.6 ID 24-4292 Adopt Ordinance No. 24-1336 Approving a General Development Plan and Planned
Development Rezone for 2778 and 2786 McCulloch Boulevard N., Tract 121, Block
10, Lots 2 and 3, 0.57 Acres, from Limited Multiple-Family (R-3) District to
Limited Multiple-Family/Planned Development (R-3/PD) District, To Allow Nine
Dwelling Units Across the Two Lots (Chris Gilbert)
Mr. Gilbert advised that this item is the zoning component to the previous item for the
subject properties located at 2778 and 2786 McCulloch Boulevard North. He said the
subject properties are shown as Low-Density Residential land use category which is not
compatible with the overlying R-3 zoning already in place and was approved by the City
Council in the previous hearing to change the land use map to reflect High-Density
Residential. The zoning on the property is R-3 Limited Multiple-Family Residential
which is not compatible with the underlying land use but will become compatible
following approval of the General Development Plan amendment. He noted that most of
the surrounding parcels to the north, east, and west are zoned R-3 (Limited
Multiple-Family Residential) and to the south is R-1 (Low-Density Residential). The
applicant is requesting to add a PD rezone to the existing R-3 zoning to permit a higher
unit density on the two subject properties of 16 units per acre where the underlying
zoning only permits a maximum of 10 units per acre. He added that the General
Development Plan intends for a total of nine individual single-story dwelling units across
both lots combined with attached garages and meets the current multi-family parking
requirements. Mr. Gilbert concluded that based on the findings, the Development Review
Committee recommends approval of this application with the following conditions:
1) The Minor General Plan Amendment recommended for approval by the Planning
Commission and Land Use Action 24-4262 is approved by the City Council.
2) The development of the property shall substantially match the General Plan
Development provided with the request.
3) Combine Lots 2 and 3 into one parcel through the City process for lot combinations
prior to applying for a building permit.
4) Building permits and design review for compliance with City Codes are required prior
to development of the property.
He added that the Planning Commission recommended approval on May 15, 2024.

City Council Minutes - Final June 11, 2024
Mayor Sheehy asked if the applicant intends to sell or lease the units, to which Mr. Frank
Ortiz, applicant, responded both.
Councilmember Campbell asked Mr. Ortiz how long it took him to go through this rezone
process, to which Mr. Ortiz said two to three months.
Mayor Sheehy opened the public hearing.
Mr. Newman addressed the council with concerns regarding the rezone process and how
the rezone of this property affects the surrounding properties and city.
There being no further comments, Mayor Sheehy closed the public hearing.
Councilmember Lane moved to adopt Ordinance No. 24-1336 approving a General
Development Plan and Planned Development Rezone for 2778 and 2786 McCulloch
Boulevard N., Tract 121, Block 10, Lots 2 and 3, containing 0.57 Acres, from Limited
Multiple-Family (R-3) District to Limited Multiple-Family/Planned Development
(R-3/PD) District, to allow nine dwelling units across the two lots, with the following
conditions:
