It is concerning the approval of the motion and action to place the [Q] Qualified Conditions on the three lots that were zoned C1-1XL on and near the corner of 20Th Street and Walker Avenue.
Vista del Oro Neighbors Against Condos (VDONAC) is the organization which found neighbors banding together to make sure the site of the former McCowan's Market didn't become a huge project site that would have been completely out of character with the surrounding areas.
VDONAC, with the incredibly great support from Councilwoman Janice Hahn and her office were successful in having the Harbor Area Planning Commission approve a motion brought to them by Councilwoman Hahn, to approve restrictions on development on the three lots.
It all seems to have come down to the following short sentences:
[Q] QUALIFIED CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL
Pursuant to Section 12.32.G of the Los Angeles Municipal Code, the following limitations are hereby imposed upon the use of the subject property, subject to the "Q" Qualified classification.
1. Minimum Lot Area. The residential use of the subject property shall be limited to 1-unit per 5,000 square feet of lot area for the development of these parcels as single family dwellings.

The Planning Commission took action to approve the staff report and Adopt the attached Findings.
They also Approved and Recommended that the City Council Adopt a Zone Change from C1-1XL to [Q]C1-1XL.
They Approved and Recommended that the City Council Adopt Categorical Exemptio to No. ENV-2008-359-CE dated February 26, 2008.
They also Recommended that the applicant be advised that effectuation of a zone in the [Q] Qualified Classification is specified in Section 12.32.G of the LAMC
The Harbor Area Planning Commission approved the action by a vote of 3-0 with two members absent.
The applicant still has rights to appeal, with a Final Appeal Date of April 15, 2008.
