Irwindale Municipal Code, to change the zoning of a parcel of land located at 16203
Arrow Highway (APN: 8619-010-907) from M-2 (Heavy Manufacturing) to M-1 (Light
Manufacturing); and
WHEREAS, the parcel is part of an approved development project on a site

667(15). Although the two applications are being processed simultaneously, they are

environment; and

conditioned to obtain approval of the subject Amendment prior to issuance of building
permits; and

public hearing, took testimony on the Amendment, at which time they received input
from staff, the City Attorney, and the Applicant, heard public testimony, discussed the
