A. The zone change is necessary and desirable for the development of the community in
harmony with the objectives of the General Plan and this chapter and is in the interest or
furtherance of the public health, safety, and general welfare. The subject site has a
General Plan Land Use Designation of Neighborhood Commercial but dual zoning on
the zoning map. The north 42 feet along Telegraph Road is zoned P-B (Parking Buffer)
and the remainder of the site is zoned C-2 (Commercial). Although a portion of the
property is currently zoned P-B, the P-B zoning has been phased out of the Zoning
Code. The proposed zone change would bring the entire property into compliance with
the General Plan Land Use Designation. Furthermore, this action is in compliance with
Program 1.3.2.3 of the General Plan, which states, "Change the zoning of properties
where inconsistent with the General Plan Land Use Designation." The proposed zone
change will allow the property to be consistent with current zoning and Municipal Code
designations.

The zone change will be compatible and complementary to existing conditions and
adjoining property in the surrounding area. The zone change will rezone the entire
property to be within the C-2 zone. This is consistent with the General Plan and as
developments and changes are made along Telegraph Road, all neighboring properties
will follow this zone change as well.
C. The site is adequate in size to accommodate the uses permitted in the zone requested
and that all applicable property development standards can be complied with. The
minimum size requirement for new parcels in the C-2 zone is 10,000 square feet in size;
however, the subject parcel comprises 21,865.91 square feet. Inasmuch as the property
exceeds over two times the minimum required, it has sufficient size to allow C-2 uses,
such as medical offices, to be developed in a manner that will meet the development
standards set forth in the code. The proposed project demonstrates that the subject site
is able to fully comply with all development standards for the proposed C-2 zone.
D. The site properly relates to streets and highways designed and fully improved to carry
the type and quantity of traffic that is expected to be generated in the area and that
utilities exist or are planned which will adequately serve the property as rezoned. The
subject site is accessed via Telegraph Road, a major arterial, which was designed for
higher traffic volumes. This portion of Telegraph Road contains six travel lanes (three in
each direction) and has been designed to accommodate traffic generated from the
various C-2 properties that front the street. Eliminating the P-B zone on this site will not
increase the anticipated traffic generated by new uses since the majority of the parcel is
already zoned C-2 and the P-B zone is not used in the analysis of traffic generated from
this site.
The proposed zone change is in general conformance with the General Plan and
General Plan land use designation for the parcel. The subject site has a General Plan
Land Use Designation of Neighborhood Commercial, which is implemented with this
project as it serves the surrounding neighborhood and is a smaller development than
typical general commercial such as shopping centers or hotels in the C-2 zone. Although
portions of the property are currently zoned P-B, the P-B zoning has been phased out of
the Zoning Code. This action would allow the entire property to be zoned for commercial
use and therefore bring the parcel into general conformance with the General Plan Land
Use Designation.

The applicant is proposing to construct a two-story, 7,788 square -foot medical office building.
The ground floor of the building will be 1,268 square feet made up of a lobby, research room,
and break room. The second floor is 6,520 square feet and includes an elevator, stairs, a
medical office suite, restrooms, an equipment room, and a vanilla shell for potentially one or two
more medical office suites. The site is accessible from Telegraph Road, through one, 26-foot
wide driveway. This development will include both covered and uncovered parking. The covered
parking will be located directly adjacent to the first floor and will be covered by the second floor
and will include 15 parking spaces with 2 of them being accessible. The remaining 24 parking
spaces and 2 additional accessible spaces will be installed along the southern and western
property lines. In addition to the 39 parking spaces, there will be 8 bicycle parking spaces
located north of the entrance to the site. The trash enclosure will be located in the southwest
corner of the property in the parking lot, which is located to the rear of the building.
There is an existing 6-foot masonry wall bordering the north, south, and west property lines. As
part of this project, the wall on the north property line will be replaced to match the material and
appearance of the other existing walls. The wall along the west property line will remain, and a
portion of the south wall will remain with 101 feet of the south wall to be removed because the
proposed building will be constructed there. Access to the site will be from Telegraph Road and
entry to the building will be near the street side of the site in order to be easily accessible by
pedestrians and the four ADA accessible parking spaces. The egress and ingress to the site
has been reviewed by the Public Works department who also determined the proposed use will
not generate any additional traffic beyond the expected capacity for Telegraph Road. From the
covered parking areas, there will be a secondary passageway into the southeast side of the
building.

Architecture
Rendering of site from Telegraph Road
The proposed project features a Modern architectural design. The design includes various
elements and horizontal and vertical features, all helping to create a linear inspired design
common in Modern architecture.
The building fagade will include varying wall planes as well as contrasting colors and materials.
The building was designed to be at the front setback, closer to the street line, to enhance the
commercial aesthetic along Telegraph Road. The materials for the new building will be a Stone
in "Whisper White" along the first floor and extending up the east portion of the front fagade for
accented detail to break up the wall planes and create a subtle contrast. The second floor will
primarily be provided with smooth stucco in the Sherwin Williams color "Elastomeric Creamy".
The northwest corner of the building will consist of large glass panes to create a focal feature
from the first to second floor. An aluminum cladding veneer will be placed along the top of the
front windows to create dimension. The window and door trim will be a gray pre -weathered
aluminum.
Landscape
The development will contain a total of 3,616 square feet of landscaping throughout the setback
areas and planters within the parking areas. In accordance with the City's landscape
regulations, the proposed project will provide a total of 14 on site -trees of various sizes. There
will be seventeen (17) drought -tolerant trees added to the site as part of the landscape plan for
this project. In addition to trees, the landscape plan also includes shrubs and vines to create a

The proposed planting design concepts provide drought tolerance, variation and dimension
including the use of vines on walls, and flowering plants to provide pops of color. The trees
installed along the rear property line will not be less than six feet in height at the time of planting
and no less than 15 feet in height at maturity. This will provide screening of the site for the
abutting residential units to the south.
The City's Development Review Committee reviewed the project on October 31, 2019. The Fire
Department has placed conditions regarding the size of the elevator, knox box, emergency
access, and requiring the entire building be fully equipped with sprinklers. The Public Works
Department provided conditions to ensure that the driveway approach would meet current
standards as well as requiring proper permits to be obtained for any public utilities. The Police
Department expressed that the address must be highly visible. Conditions have been included
to address all concerns.
In accordance with the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), Staff has
determined that the proposed development is categorical exempt, pursuant to Section 15332
(In -fill Development) of the CEQA Guidelines. Categorical Exemptions are projects, which have
been determined not to have a significant effect on the environment and have been exempted
from the requirements of CEQA. The project is categorically exempted under this Section
because the property is consistent with the General Plan land use designation and complies
with the C-2 development standards. The project is also developed on a parcel of less than five
acres and is surrounded by urban uses. In addition, the proposed project is not likely to result in
causing any significant effect to the existing traffic, noise, air quality, or water quality. The
proposed development would also be served by all required utilities and public services.

The subject site has a General Plan Land Use Designation of Neighborhood
Commercial, which is implemented with this project as it serves the surrounding
neighborhood and is a smaller development than typical general commercial such as
shopping centers or hotels in the C-2 zone. Although portions of the property are
currently zoned P-B, the P-B zoning has been phased out of the Zoning Code. This
action would allow the entire property to be zoned for commercial use and therefore
bring the parcel into general conformance with the General Plan Land Use Designation.
The Site Plan Review allows the Planning Commission to review the site layout, as well as the
architectural style of the buildings. In order to approve the Site Plan Review, the Planning
Commission must adopt the following seven findings:
1. The site plan is consistentgoals and policies embodied in the Genera'
Plan • other applicableplans and policies adopted by r
The project's objective to revitalize the site helps achieve various long-term goals.
Specifically, the following policies are promoted by the Site Plan Review:
Policy 8.1.1— Promote architectural design of the highest quality,
Policy 8.1.2 — Promote the upgrading of properties.
The proposed architecture is a significant upgrade compared to the facilities that
previously existed on site or the current vacant condition of the property. The
development will serve as an example of higher quality architecture for future
developments within its proximity and the entire city. Additionally, the development of
this site as a medical office building, meets the goals of the General Plan; specifically,
General Plan Goal 1.1, to provide sufficient land areas for uses that serves the needs of
residents, visitors, and businesses.
2. The proposed development is In accordance with the purposes and objectives of
Article IX r the zonelocated.
Pursuant to Article IX, Section 9314.02, the intent and purpose of the Commercial Zone
regulations is to ensure that the appearance and effects of commercial buildings and
uses are harmonious with the character of the area in which they are located.
Specifically, the C-2 Zone is intended to provide for and encourage orderly development
of general commercial uses, with a variety of goods and services, for the residents of the
entire City, with provisions designed to ensure that such commerce will be efficient,
functionally related, and compatible with adjacent noncommercial development. The
proposed medical office building will consist of three medical offices. As such, this will
provide a service to the adjacent, noncommercial uses, for Downey residents and
visitors to Downey. As such, this development is in accordance with the purposes and
objectives of the C-2 Zone.

3. The proposed development's site plan and its design features, including
architecture and landscaping, will integrate harmoniously and enhance the
character and design of the site, the immediate neighborhood, and the
surrounding areas of the City.

consideration to the patients who will be using these facilities. The convenient entry
locations into the building were designed to achieve functionality for visitors to the site.
The site plan as proposed complies with all development standards and does not
present potential conflicts in use.

and that all applicable property development standards can be complied with. The
minimum size requirement for new parcels in the C-2 zone is 10,000 square feet in size;
however, the subject parcel comprises 21,865.91 square feet. Inasmuch as the property
exceeds over two times the minimum required, it has sufficient size to allow C-2 uses,
such as medical offices, to be developed in a manner that will meet the development
standards set forth in the code. The proposed project demonstrates that the subject site
is able to fully comply with all development standards for the proposed C-2 zone.
D. The site properly relates to streets and highways designed and fully improved to carry
the type and quantity of traffic that is expected to be generated in the area and that
utilities exist or are planned which will adequately serve the property as rezoned. The
subject site is accessed via Telegraph Road, a major arterial, which was designed for
higher traffic volumes. This portion of Telegraph Road contains six travel lanes (three in
each direction) and has been designed to accommodate traffic generated from the
various C-2 properties that front the street. Eliminating the P-B zone on this site will not
increase the anticipated traffic generated by new uses since the majority of the parcel is
already zoned C-2 and the P-B zone is not used in the analysis of traffic generated from
this site.
E. The proposed zone change is in general conformance with the General Plan and
General Plan land use designation for the parcel. The subject site has a General Plan
Land Use Designation of Neighborhood Commercial, which is implemented with this
project as it serves the surrounding neighborhood and is a smaller development than
typical general commercial such as shopping centers or hotels in the C-2 zone. Although
portions of the property are currently zoned P-B, the P-B zoning has been phased out of
the Zoning Code. This action would allow the entire property to be zoned for commercial
use and therefore bring the parcel into general conformance with the General Plan Land
Use Designation.
SECTION 4. Based upon the findings set forth in Sections 1 through 3 of this resolution,
the Planning Commission of the City of Downey hereby recommends that the City Council of the
City of Downey rezone 42-feet of the northern -most portion of the subject site from P-B (Parking
Buffer) to C-2 (General Commercial, as shown on the zoning map attached hereto as Exhibit A.

from CEQA, pursuant to Guideline Section 15332 (in -fill Development).
SECTION 3. Having considered all of the oral and written evidence presented to it at

and other applicable plans and policies adopted by the Council. The project's
objective to revitalize the site helps achieve various long-term goals. Specifically, the
following policies are promoted by the Site Plan Review:

specifically, General Plan Goal 1.1, to provide sufficient land areas for uses that
serves the needs of residents, visitors, and businesses.
B. The proposed development is in accordance with the purposes and objectives of
Article IX and the zone in which the site is located. Pursuant to Article IX, Section
9314.02, the intent and purpose of the Commercial Zone regulations is to ensure that
the appearance and effects of commercial buildings and uses are harmonious with
the character of the area in which they are located. Specifically, the C-2 Zone is
intended to provide for and encourage orderly development of general commercial
uses, with a variety of goods and services, for the residents of the entire City, with
provisions designed to ensure that such commerce will be efficient, functionally
related, and compatible with adjacent noncommercial development. The proposed
medical office building will consist of three medical offices. As such, this will provide
a service to the adjacent, noncommercial uses, for Downey residents and visitors to
Downey. As such, this development is in accordance with the purposes and
objectives of the C-2 Zone.
C. The proposed development's site plan and its design features, including architecture
and landscaping, will integrate harmoniously and enhance the character and design
of the site, the immediate neighborhood, and the surrounding areas of the City. The
proposed medical building is designed in such a way as to have a positive visual
impact to the area. The building is two -stories in height, as opposed to the allowable
three stories because it is proportional to the adjacent and surrounding commercial
development in the area. The new development will serve as a significant upgrade
from the surrounding sites with modern architecture and curb appeal with drought -
tolerant landscape within the front setback. Additionally, the focus on scale will
prevent the development from appearing dominant and out of place.
D. The site plan and location of the buildings, parking areas, signs, landscaping,
luminaries, and other site features indicate that proper consideration has been given
to both the functional aspects of the site development, such as automobile and
pedestrian circulation, and the visual effects of the development from the view of the
public streets. The site design and overall integration of the landscaping, building
orientation, and driveway access was well -envisioned by the applicant. The
relationship of the building to the street creates a welcoming entrance into the
building and is appropriately scaled for the area. The location of the parking spaces
throughout the development gives consideration to the patients who will be using
these facilities. The convenient entry locations into the building were designed to
achieve functionality for visitors to the site. The site plan as proposed complies with
all development standards and does not present potential conflicts in use.
E. The proposed development will improve the community appearance by preventing
extremes of dissimilarity or monotony in new construction or in alterations of
facilities. The proposed project reflects true contemporary style architecture and
keeps with the same building height as the other commercial developments directly
across Telegraph Road as well as the commercial building adjacent to the west. The
proposed project will enhance the existing commercial and residential uses in the
area. The existing buildings on the site will be replaced with a new style of
architecture with quality materials, design, and variation in colors. This proposed
development will bring quality and improve the overall appearance of the area.
