Ordinance No. 810 has been drafted to extend Urgency Ordinance No. 804, which was
adopted by the City Council on May 9, 2000. This urgency ordinance was adopted to
allow staff sufficient time to study the land use classifications of certain areas along Valley
Boulevard. These two areas are generally described as the northeast corner of Temple
City and Valley Boulevards and the southeast corner of Rio Hondo Avenue and Valley
Boulevard. This moratorium was put in mace to allow staff time to study the general plan
and zoning classifications of the properties and make any appropriate changes. Proposed
changes include amending the general plan and zoning map land use classifications from
industrial to commercial. City staff recommends that the City Council adopt this urgency
ordinance for an additional six-month period to allow planning department staff to process
a City initiated general plan amendment and zone change for the outlined properties.
