Title

Amendments to the City's General Plan Land Use Element and Proposed Interim Zoning Ordinance Pertaining to the Regulation of Automobile Dealerships Citywide

Description

The proposed interim ordinance would allow existing auto dealerships to develop inventory storage/parking facilities (parking structures) or surface parking/storage lots on lots already associated with dealerships located in residential zones or in residentials zones designated as parking overlay "A" zones; modify regulations to allow increases in height and floor-area ration; change the approval process for dealerships in C4 and C6 commercial zones; allow auto dealerships in M1 industrial zones and establish development standards and an approval process; allow vehicle stacking equipment with screening; modify provisions to allow existing automobile inventory storage lots in the BCD zone to be used also for employee parking for the dealership; and modify provisions related to temporary use permits or establish a new approval process to permit storage of auto dealership inventory for limited duration on parcels in certain commercial and industrial zones. The project also includes a General Plan Land Use Element amendment related to the proposal to allow automobile dealership parking structures and surface lots to be located on parcels zoned for residential use.
