(Application No. 1707-10)
The site is a Successor Agency property located on the east side of Long Beach Boulevard between E. 49th Street to the north and the Union Pacific Railroad to the south. Long Beach Boulevard is primarily a commercial corridor with abutting residential uses. The site is located in the Addams Neighborhood area in North Long Beach. The site encompasses five parcels for a total project area of 1.102 acres (approximately 48,003 square feet) and is zoned Community Commercial Automobile-Oriented (CCA). Two adjacent lots located east of the project site at 132 and 134 E. 49th Street are also zoned Community Commercial Automobile-Oriented (CCA). (Exhibit A - Vicinity Map) The five-parcel site that is proposed to be developed is currently vacant covered with ruderal vegetation. The developer seeks to construct 18 three-story townhomes within three buildings that are a maximum height of 38' (three-stories). The adjacent lots have one existing single-family residence per lot. No new development is proposed on the two adjacent lots. The proposed project includes a Zone Change from CCA to R-4-N (Medium-Density Multiple Residential) to facilitate the development of the townhomes. A Zone Change for the two adjacent lots (132 and 134 E. 49th Street) from CCA to R-3-T (Multi-family Residential, Townhouse) is proposed for consistency with the existing residential land use and adjacent neighborhood zoning.
