<br />Ordinance No. NS-XXX <br />Page 3 of 8 <br />G. AA No. 2024-03 is consistent with and implements the amendments <br />proposed by ZOA No. 2024-02 by ensuring uniform and legally consistent <br />mapping of the City’s Zoning Districts; and enables the City to implement a <br />regulatory framework that protects the health, safety, and welfare of the City <br />and its residents. <br /> <br />H. The proposed amendments to the Zoning Map contained in AA No. 2024- <br />03 are required to ensure consistency with the City’s General Plan in <br />accordance with California Government Code, Section 65860. <br /> <br />I. Adoption of AA No. 2024-03 is consistent with and implements the <br />Amended General Plan. Specifically, it is consistent with the following: <br /> <br />The amendments timely address current inconsistencies within an area of <br />the City prioritized for addressing EJ. <br />(a) Policy LU-1.1 (Compatible Uses), <br />(b) Policy LU-2.4 (Cost and Benefit of Development) <br />(c) Policy LU-3.8 (Sensitive Receptors), <br />(d) Policy LU-3.9 (Noxious, Hazardous, Dangerous, and Polluting <br />Uses), <br />(e) Policy LU-3.11 (Air Pollution Buffers), <br />(f) Policy LU-4.3 (Sustainable Land Use Strategies), <br />(g) Policy LU-4.6 (Healthy Living Conditions), <br />(h) Policy CM-3.2 (Healthy Neighborhoods), <br />(i) Policy EP-1.9 (Avoid Conflict of Uses), <br />(j) Policy EP-3.3 (Mitigate Impacts); <br />(k) Policy CN-1.5 (Sensitive Receptor Decisions), <br />(l) Policy CM-3.2 (Healthy Neighborhoods), and <br />(m) Policy HE-5.5 (Community Development) which are targeted at <br />correcting past land use planning practices that have placed an <br />unequitable environmental and health burden on certain <br />neighborhoods now termed disadvantaged communities. The <br />proposed amendments support these goals and policies by: <br /> <br />1. Fostering the compatibility between residential and nonresidential land <br />uses within the TZC to enhance livability and promote healthier <br />lifestyles, and improve public health and quality of life; <br />2. Resolving the development of industrial land uses and sensitive <br />receptors being in close proximity to each other that pose health hazards <br />by eliminating an overlay zone that promulgated continuation of <br />industrial uses without recourse; <br />3. Improving the health of the existing and future residents of the TZC by <br />regulating the operations of noxious, hazardous, dangerous, and <br />polluting uses by giving priority to the discontinuance of those uses;
