PUBLIC HEARING, Appeal of Challstrom Builders, Inc., from denial by Planning Commission of their application to amend Zoning Map by rezoning Jefferson Terrace Subdivision (area bounded on the West by the Hetch Hetchy right-of-way, and on the North by Jefferson Avenue, opposite Utah Way, from R-1, (Single Family Residential) District to R-2 (Residential -Duplex) District, declared open and affidavits of publication and mailing ordered filed. Report of the Planning Commission was read in which action of this matter had been for denial of the application to rezone from R-1 to R-2 after a public hearing. Staff analysis read describing surrounding land uses as having Hetch Hetchy right-of-way at one side, presently used for parking and tennis courts in connection with the adjacent Tennis & Swim Club, a 23 -unit apartment complex along another side, and single family residences across Jefferson Avenue on the remaining side. History of the site was reviewed, it having been unclassified when annexed to City, and subsequent request for con- struction of 15 -unit apartment development which had been conditionally approved by the Commission, but on appeal by adjacent property owners the Council had reversed and denied, with property being zoned R-1 single family residential upon adoption of Ordinance 1130. Staff further advised at this point in their report that it appeared reasonable to consider a transitional use on this site between the single family developments and the more active recreational and apartment developments in the area adjacent. Excerpt from Minutes of Planning Commission meeting at which this property was discussed during public hearing also was read. Letter of protest to change of zoning was read from the following: Marshall A. Blank, 823 Piedmont Way, Redwood City Planning Director advised his report to Commission had been submitted before the public hearing, and that he now concurs in the Planning Commission action. Coun- cilman Petersen questioned whether petition included in appellants' written report submitted to Council members, had been submitted for record for this public hearing.
