DISCUSSION:
/ Attached for the Council' s review and approval is the revised text
for the three industrial districts: Articles 951, 953 , and 955 .
The text incorporates Code Amendment No. 83-3 approved by the
Planning Commission on January 17, 1984 , which assures that all
industrial developments located within 150 feet of residential
property comply with certain noise standards and that those which
abut residential property incorporate increased setbacks, height
restrictions, and landscaping provisions. Another part of the
text changes is Code Amendment No. 83-25 , approved by the Planning
Commission on March 6, 1984 , which concerns increasing the
permitted height of security/screening walls for outside storage
to nine feet and establishing design standards and approval
procedures for screening walls that abut arterial highways in the
M1-A and M1 Districts.
Following the Planning Commission' s direction, staff revised the
text of Articles 951., 953 , and 955 to make them internally
consistent. Staff feels that this- is an effort to begin
establishing a consistent style and organization for the zoning
ordinance, Division 9 of the Huntington Beach Ordinance Code. The
Planning Commission directed staff to bring back the revised
ordinance for a public hearing as a new code amendment on June 5 ,
1984 , and it was at this meeting that it was approved and
recommended to the City Council for adoption.

approved code amendments that make up Code Amendment No. 84-4.

Commission for Code Amendment No. 83-3 on January 17 , 1984 , and
Code Amendment No. 83-25 was determined to be categorically exempt
from environmental review. No additional environmental assessment
