Enactment #:
Title:
Ordinance amending the Planning Code to remove the conditional use authorization for formula retail
uses in the Residential-Commercial zoning districts along Van Ness Avenue, for lots fronting Van
Ness Avenue, and to establish that a change of owner or operator of a pre-existing formula retail use
that had not previously received a conditional use authorization is not an intensification of such use
that would require conditional use authorization; affirming the Planning Department’s determination
under the California Environmental Quality Act; and making public necessity, convenience, and
welfare findings under Planning Code, Section 302, and findings of consistency with the General Plan
and the eight priority policies of Planning Code, Section 101.1.
