The USE DISTRICT HrARING ON THE PROPOSED ZONE CHANGE, R-1, SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCE ZONE, TO TCR-PD, TOURIST, COMMERCIAL, RECREATION, PLAITED DEVELOP- MENT ZONE (PORTIONS LOT 65 & 66, SWEETWATER HEIGHTS) was held at this time. City Clerk Minogue stated the Certificate of Publication was on file, the Planning Commission recommendation the request for zone change be denied and the appeal by Macey L. McMillin, Jr. were attached to the Agenda. Director of Planning Stockman stated the request was to re -zone the area north of Sweetwater Road in the 3300 to 3300 blocks encompassing approximately seven- teen acres of land to TCR-PD, the recently created zoning, adopted by the Council to be placed around 805 and 54 in Sweetwater Valley; at the November 24 meeting of the Planning Commission they voted 4 - 3 to deny this request. Mrs. Stockman stated notices of the Planning Commission hearing were mailed to all property owners within 300' of the property in question; only one protest was received and that person spoke orally before the Planning Commis- sion; it was his objection that he would have to look down upon the trailer park and he did not think it would be the best use. Lloyd Hill, 41 E. 25th Street, representing Macey L. McMillin, Jr. was present and said they didn't foresee any problems with the Planning Commission when they went before them; the Planning Director and the staff were going along with their recommenda- tions for the project; all of the Council members have his prepared presen- tation in detail. Mr. Hill said in the presentation he prepared it shows the proximity to the future interchange of the South Bay Freeway and Freeway 805; they are on a major street, Sweetwater Road, and this is ideal; the General Plan recommends mobile home parks be located on a good access like that and near the freeway; the shape of the site is odd but it fits in and they can get a yield of 7 units per acre which is a low density for the Gen- eral Plan. Mr. Hill said two lenders are interested in the project; one of the criteria is that it must be a 5-star park. Macey 'McMillin was present and said he was the applicant and had gene into a detailed study with his staff on the project; he quoted from a book prepared by the Economic Research Department of the Pacific Security Bank in relation to the 200th Anniversary of San Diego. Mr. IcMillin said the particular ground in question relates itself to this type of development; any other development is out of the question and is needed for good planning and good city growth; trailer parks are providing housing and are of equal necessity as airports and schools. Moved by Hogue, seconded by Colburn, the hearing be closed, the ruling of the Planning Commission be overruled and this zoning be allowed for this area. Carried by the following vote, to -wit: Ayes: Camacho, Colburn, Hogue. Mays: Reid. Abstaining: Morgan. 12/23/59 238 Moved by Hogue, seconded by Reid, the meeting be closet.
