A. Recitals.
(i) The City of Irwindale has been developed with
and pursuant to various zoning districts and zoning standards
which currently present a broad spectrum of development
opportunities. The current R-3 zoning district development
standards present the standards most advantageous to the
100' development of higher density residential development.
(ii) The City has experienced ongoing demand for
affordable housing, and particularly housing available to senior
citizens. A development site for such housing has been
identified; this site comprises the parcels identified as 16140
Arrow Highway (C-3), 16148 Arrow Highway (C-3) and 5172 Ayon
Avenue (A-1). These parcels are currently zoned either (C-3)
Heavy Commercial -Residential, or (A-1) Agricultural. To
accommodate the anticipated affordable housing development, City
staff has determined that the zoning district should properly be
(R-3) Heavy -Multiple Residential to ensure that adequate zoning
related dwelling density is provided for on the ultimate site.
