FRANCISCO RECOMMENDING THAT THE CITY COUNCIL ADOPT AN ORDINANCE

WHEREAS, the City of South San Francisco has submitted a request to amend the
Zoning Ordinance, Title 20 of the Municipal Code, as follows:
1. Amend the Zoning Ordinance, Chapter 20.71 “Front, Rear, and Side Yard
Regulations,” Table 21.71.030, Footnote “Q” to allow for reductions in the rear
yard setback on Substandard Reverse Corner Lots in the R-1 (Single Family
Residential) Zoning District to no less than 10 feet subject to approval of a Minor
Use Permit, as further described in Exhibit A; and,
WHEREAS, the City of South San Francisco Planning Commission held a duly noticed
public hearing on September 5, 2002; and,
WHEREAS, as required by the “Amendment Procedures” (SSFMC Section 20.87), and
in support of the amendment to the zoning ordinance of Chapter 20.71 entitled “Front, Rear, and
Side Yard Regulations,” and based on public testimony and the Staff Report to the Planning
Commission dated September 5, 2002, the Planning Commission finds that the proposed
amendment is consistent with the City’s General Plan which requires residential neighborhoods
to contain private outdoor open space on each lot to the maximum extent feasible; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 15305(a) of the California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA) Guidelines, this ordinance is categorically exempt from environmental review as it only
involves minor changes to the City’s land use limitations,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, based on evidence in the record, including the
staff reports and oral and written comments received at the duly notice public hearing of the
Planning Commission on September 5, 2002, by the Planning Commission of the City of South
