use and development of land, buildings, and structures within the city in order to
render the usage thereof compatible with surrounding and adjacent uses.
Section 8.12 Scope of Regulations
The zoning regulations shall regulate the use and development of buildings,
structures and land and shall provide for agricultural, industrial, commercial, residential and other uses. The regulations shall establish:
(1) The height, size and bulk of buildings and structures;
(2) The size and usage of lots, yards, and courts;
(3) The percentage of any lot which may be occupied by a building or structure;
(4) The intensity of land use and development;
(5) The amount and development of open space;
(6) The required amount and design of off-street parking and loading facilities
and facilities for the movement of people;
(7) The building setback lines;
(8) The effect of non-conformity with the regulations; and
(9) The necessary procedural provisions for effective administration of the regulations.
Section 8.13 Zones
The zoning regulations shall divide the city into such zones as are best suited to
carry out the purpose of this article. The regulations applicable to a particular zone
shall apply uniformly to all uses in that zone.
Section 8.14 Adoption of Zoning Regulations
The zoning regulations and amendments thereto including the reclassification of
specific properties from one zone to another shall be prepared by the director of
planning with the advice of the planning commission. The regulations shall be reviewed by the ciry attorney as to form and shall be the subject of at least one public
hearing before the city council prior to adoption by ordinance. Prior to adopting or
amending a zoning regulation, the city council shall first find that the regulation is
consistent with the policies and objectives of the comprehensive general plan.
Section 8.15 Conditional Use Permits
The zoning regulations may designate certain uses which are unique and unusual
in character, and thus are not subject to control by regulations of general application. Such uses shall be designated conditional uses, and a conditional use permit
therefor shall be required. No conditional use permit shall be issued until after at
least one public hearing is held by the office of zoning administration upon the application therefor and, based upon competent evidence, it is found that the following
facts are present
(1) That the topography, size and shape of the site for the proposed use are adequate to accommodate the use;
(2) That the site has sufficient access to streets or highways which are adequate
in width and type to carry the quantity and quality of traffic reasonably expected to
be generated by the proposed use;
(3) That the proposed use will not have an adverse effect upon the peaceful use
and enjoyment of immediately adjacent and surrounding properties and uses;
(4) That the proposed use is consistent and compatible with other existing and
permitted uses located immediately adjacent thereto; and
(5) That the proposed use is consistent with the policies and objectives of the
comprehensive general plan.
Section 8.16 Zone Variances
Variances from the terms of the zoning ordinance shall be granted only when,
because of special circumstances applicable to the property, including size, shape,
topography, location or surroundings, the strict application of the zoning regulations

| Description | Section 2: City government for the future: report of the Los Angeles City Charter Commission. Los Angeles, California: Los Angeles City Hall, 1969 July. PART OF A SERIES: A critical component of the Commission's investigation centered on the idea that governance of the LAPD was shared between the Office of the Chief of Police, an administrative body, and the Board of Police Commissioners, a citizen body. To better understand the dynamic between these two entities, the staff of Heller, Ehrman, White, & McAuliffe researched the history of the Los Angeles City Charter, focusing primarily on its provisions regarding the distribution of power and the structure and organization of the LAPD. Included in the series are reproductions of reports, dissertations, article clippings, excerpts from city documents, and charter amendments related to the charter's conception and development over time. The series also includes several summaries of expert witness interviews regarding the effectiveness of this structure. |
