Section 2. This ordinance is an ordinance for the
immediate preservation of the public peace, health and safety and
pursuant to the provisions of subsection (b) of section 36937 of
the Government Code of the State of California shall take effect
immediately.
The facts constituting such urgency are as follows:
There is presently pending before the planning com-
mission of the City of Rosemead a proceeding for change of zoning
of certain areas within said city now zoned for residential uses to
industrial uses. Difficult problems have arisen in connection
with these proceedings as a result of possible detriment to the
owners of adjacent residential properties by the influx of certain
industrial uses presently permitted by the temporary interim zoning
ordinance in the M-1 industrial zone and an urgent need exists for
the creation of a more restricted commercial and manufacturing
zone which would provide a transition between adjacent residential
uses and commercial and manufacturing uses of the type now permitted
by said ordinance. Unless such a zone is created immediately, it
would not be possible to consider its establishment in connection
with public hearings now scheduled before the plannings commission
with reference to the aforementioned zone change proceeding and
thus the public interest in effective planning for the most
beneficial and equitable use of property within the City would be
hampered to the permanent damage of the properties involved and
to the detriment of the public peace, health and safety.
PASSED, APPROVED and ADOPTED this lst day of November, 1961.
