4. The provision of utilities (e.g., potable water, schools, solid waste collection and
disposal, storm drainage, wastewater collection, treatment, and disposal, etc.) is
adequate to serve the site. All areas within the JCOZ are currently equipped with
utilities or access to utilities.

The proposed JCOZ includes no new development. However, future qualifying
projects within the JCOZ would be subject to all requirements of the underlying zone
in which they are located and be subject to CEQA on a project-by-project basis.

SECTION 8. ADDITIONAL FINDINGS FOR ZONE CHANGE 19-001. Based on the
foregoing facts and findings for Master Case No. 19-002, the City Council finds as follows:

A. That the modified conditions warranted a revision in the zoning map as it pertains
to the area(s) under consideration;

The JCOZ would apply to eight areas within the City and would assist in achieving goals
and policies identified in the General Plan. In order to preserve the existing urban
context, minimize impacts on residential zones, and provide for efficient goods
movement, areas within the JCOZ were selected by applying five distinct criteria.
Although JCOZ areas would be subject to requirements of the underlying zone, it would
amend these requirements with new incentives for qualifying projects. These incentives
are not applicable to projects that do not qualify, nor are they applicable to projects
outside of the JCOZ. As such, the creation of an overlay zone is warranted.
Attachment: Ordinance [Revision 2] (JCOZ)
B. That a need for a proposed zone classification exists within such area(s); and

The JCOZ would apply to eight areas within the City and would assist in achieving goals
and policies identified in the General Plan. In order to preserve the existing urban
context, minimize impacts on residential zones, and provide for efficient goods
movement, areas for the JCOZ were selected by applying five distinct criteria. Although
JCOZ areas would be subject to requirements of the underlying zone, it would amend
these requirements with new incentives for qualifying projects. These incentives are not
applicable to projects that do not qualify, nor are they applicable to projects outside of the
JCOZ. As such, the need for a proposed overlay zone within such areas is warranted.

C. That the particular properties under consideration are a proper location for said
zone classification within such area:

1. That the placement of the proposed zone at such locations will be in the interest of
public health, safety and general welfare, and in conformity with good zoning
practice; and

The proposed JCOZ includes no new development and, as such, does not conflict
with the public health, convenience, safety, and the general welfare of the public.
Because future qualifying development would be subject to the requirements of the
underlying zone and require CEQA review on a project-by-project basis, the JCOZ is
in conformity with good zoning practices.
