The final boundaries of the study area may be enlarged by staff to
create, a more logical planning boundary.

processing the amendment request.
BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS
Mr. George Swallow, a professional architect, has requested a
General Plan Amendment on an approximately one half acre parcel in
the Alamo area. The request is to go from Single Family
Residential Low Density to Limited Office. The site is located
between Danville Boulevard and the abandoned Southern Pacific
Railroad right-of-way which now houses the Iron House trail.
The applicant wishes to convert an existing single family residence
to office use. There have been other requests for office use for
the property to the north of this site. While staff has no opinion
on whether such a change has merit, we do feel that the request for
study should be authorized.
It may be desirable to expand the study area north and south of the
site to consider similarly situated properties.
