NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the City Council of the City of National City will hold a Public Hearing after the hour of 6:00 p.m., Tuesday, September 16, 2025, in the City Council Chambers, Civic Center, 1243 National City Blvd., National City, CA., to consider:
CONSIDERATION OF CERTIFICATION OF A NEGATIVE DECLARATION FOR A
GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT AND ZONE CHANGE TO CHANGE THE ZONING FROM RS-2 (SMALL LOT RESIDENTIAL) TO MXC-1 (MINOR MIXED-USE CORRIDOR) FOR PROPERTIES LOCATED AT 3040, 3042-3046, 3102-3104, & 3106-3108 EAST 16TH STREET AND 1540 SOUTH HARBISON AVENUE
CASE FILE NO. 2025-02 GPA, ZC
APNS: 558-162-18, 558-220-06, 558-220-07, 558-220-35, 558-220-42, 558-220-11 The Planning Commission conducted a Public Hearing at their meeting of August 18, 2025 and voted to recommend approval to the City Council of the General Plan Amendment and Zone Change, by a vote of 5 to 1. The applicant is proposing to develop the property at 3040 East 16th Street with a five-unit multi-family residential building. The proposed development requires the existing single-family zoning to be changed to a zone that permits multi-family dwellings. For consistency with the existing development pattern and zoning in the area, the applicant has included five neighboring properties with this request. This type of change also requires a General Plan Amendment to change the Land Use from Low-Medium Density Residential to Medium Mixed-Use. The City conducted an Environmental Initial Study that determined the proposed project would not have a potentially significant environmental impact and qualifies for a Negative Declaration per Section 15071 of the CEQA Guidelines.
Anyone interested in this matter may appear at the above time and place and be heard.
The City Council will also accept written public comments regarding this matter.
Written comments or testimony from the public must be submitted via e-mail to [email protected] by 2:00 P.M. on the day of the City Council Meeting. For information on registering to provide public comment via Zoom please visit the City Clerk’s webpage at https://www.nationalcityca.gov/government/cityclerk/public-comments If you challenge the nature of the proposed action in court, you may be limited to raising only those issues you or someone else raised at the Public Hearing described in this notice via e-mail, or through written correspondence delivered to the undersigned prior to the Public Hearing.
