CONSTRUCTION AND USE OF BUILDINGS FOR MOTEL
OR HOTEL PURPOSES. URGENCY MEAURES)
The City Council of the City of Baldwin Park does
ordain as follows:
SECTION 1. The City Council of the City of Baldwin
Park does hereby find, determine and declare, as follows:
a) That the City staff has indicated to this
Council that land use and police problems
have arisen with respect to a number of
motels and hotels located within the City's
boundaries;
b) That such problems range from serious criminal
law problems, i.e. prostitution, drug dealing,
etc., and the use of such hotels and motels
as apartments and not for transient occupancy
only in violation of City Building and
Zoning codes;
c) That it is necessary to re-examine all of the
zoning regulations, and other Municipal Code
provisions relating to hotels and motels to
determine what steps can be taken so as to
properly regulate and allow hotels and motels
within the City but at the same time insuring
that the use of such facilities is proper
i.e. for transient occupancy only, and to
eliminate, to the extent possible, police
problems inherent of current usage of such
hotels and motels;
d) That it is necessary, pending the conduct of
such study and the enactment of regulations
based thereon, that a moratorium on the con-
struction of any new or additional hotel
and motel units must be imposed pending the
completion of such study and report
e) That if such moratorium were not imposed,
construction of such additional hotel and
motel units would be undertaken which could
very well frustrate the zoning proposal to be
examined and studied;
f) That the public interest, convenience and
necessity require the extension of the
moratorium relating to motels and hotels
as imposed by Ordinance No. 928.
SECTION 2. That notwithstanding any provision of the
Baldwin Park Municipal Code to the contrary, during such time as
this Ordinance is in full force and effect, no person shall
