represented by that of the Tech Kote Company, presently lo-
cated in the City of Inglewood, and
WHEREAS, the equipment and processes employed by said com-

WHEREAS, a report from staff on the date of February 10,

said question and recommends that, in view of the circum-

of Ordinance No. 306 provides among other things "if any single

of a particular use within the meaning and intent of this ordi-
nance, it shall be the duty of the City Planning Commission to
ascertain all pertinent facts concerning said use and by Reso-
lution of Record set forth its findings and the reasons for
designating this particular classification for such use and such
findings and resolution should be referred to the City Council,
and if approved by the City Council, thereafter such designated
classification shall govern."
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that by reason of the findings
contained in the said report attached hereto and made a part
hereof, it be the conclusion of the Planning Commission that

WHEREAS, the staff report attached to said Resolution
No. 77 and made a part thereof is in words and figures as follows,
to wit:
"STAFF REPORT
Responding to the Chairman's request for an interpretation of
the proper classification for an industrial enterprise which
processes and deals with products for concrete, I have the fol-
lowing to report:
The products manufactured are:
1. Sealtex concrete curing compounds
2. Air- entraining agent, "Durair"
3. Air - entraining equipment
4. Spray equipment
5. Joint- scaling compound
The equipment used consists primarily of a large mixing tank
and a gas -fired steam boiler. The process involved is that of
mixing resins, waxes and solvents not employing a boiling pro-
cess.
The manufacturing of the air entraining and spray equipment
is done on a minor scale and is secondary to the other processes.
The manufacture of these various products is definitely not
obnoxious or offensive by reason of emission of odor, dust,
smoke, gas, noise or other similar causes.
The investigation has produced evidence which makes it ap-
parent that the establishment in question is clearly and pro-
perly classified as an "M -1" use. It is important to point
out that the company investigated may possibly employ a process
which involves the heating of asphalt to a temperature of 3000
to obtain a proper viscosity for mixing purposes. This would
not be a boiling process inasmuch as the boiling point of as-
phalt is much higher than 3000. Even with this additional pro-
cessing, it is the opinion of this office that the nature of the
- 3 -
I09 4�iry
business would be such as to be pronerly classified in
