MASTER PLAN OF LAND USE REVISIONS
The Planning Director presented maps
of the current studies toward revision of the Master-P1ah of
Land Use.* The City has been divided into planning areas and
the studies of the Talbert Valley area are almost complete.
The plan of the Talbert Valley area was discussed at length
and preliminary plans of other districts were briefly discussed.
The Planning Director noted that
further data would be forthcoming in the near future.
It was the concensus that th-e Talbert
Valley Plan would be studied by the Commission and discussed
further at an adjourned meeting, January 29, 1963.
ZONING ORDINANCE REVISIONS
Discussion was held on drafts of pro-
posed revision of the 11R" Zones. Jack Randall, representing
the Home Builders Association; Jim Deane, representing Deane
Bros. Construction Co; and John Parker, representing Macco
Corporation, were present and explained some of the problems
from the developers' viewpoint. They emphasized that they
could not offer suggestions on the proposed revisions as they
had not had sufficient time for review of the drafts.
Several points were discussed by the
Commission including cantilever construction projecting into
side and rear yards, encouraging variations in setbacks, pro-
viding flexibility and variations in lot sizes and floor areas,
providing greater flexibility throughout the Code to encourage
better design of houses and better use of land and yard space.
