NOW, THEREFORE, THE DIRECTOR OF PLANNING OF THE CITY OF TEMECULA

Section 1. That the above recitations are true and correct and are hereby
incorporated by reference.
Section 2. Findinqs. The Planning Director, in approving Planning Application No.
02-0625 (Minor Conditional Use Permit) hereby makes the following findings as required by
Section 17.04.010.E of the Temecula Municipal Code:
A. The proposed minor conditional use permit is consistent with the general plan
and development code because the project site is zoned light industrial and the general plan
designation for the site is business park, which allows for automobile brokerage and sales of
new and used cars with no outdoor display provided a conditional use permit is issued and the
parking is consistent with the required demand. The number of parking spaces existing on the
site exceeds the parking required for the existing and proposed tenants together; therefore the
project is consistent with the parking standards within the development code.
B. The proposed conditional use is compatible with the nature, condition and
development of adjacent uses, buildings and structures and the proposed conditional use will
not adversely affect the adjacent uses, buildings or structures because the proposed use is a
conditionally permitted use in the light industrial zone and the project site is currently developed
p:'~PLANNING'tDIRHEAR~Resolutions~2003~DH Reso 02-0625.doc
with all improvements in place including parking and the all the uses on the site include some
type of automobile repair or service which functions in a similar manner of the proposed use.
C. The site for a proposed conditional use is adequate in size and shape to
accommodate the yards, walls, fences, parking and loading facilities, buffer area, landscape
and other development features prescribed in the development code and required by the
Planning Commission or Council in order to integrate the use with other uses in the
neighborhood because the project site is currently existing and developed and the proposed
use does not propose any additions or exterior alterations to the existing building site. The
proposed parking demand does not exceed to existing parking spaces and therefore the site is
adequate for the proposed use.
D. The nature of the proposed conditional use is not detrimental to the health safety
and general welfare of the community because the showroom and brokerage will provide
additional opportunities and services to the community to purchase used cars within the
community and the project site is adequate for the size and scope of the project because all the
uses on the site include automobile service and/or repair.
Section3. Environmental Compliance. A Notice of Exemption for Planning
Application No. 02-0625 was made per the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines
Section 15301 (Existing Facilities, Class 1). This project is a minor interior modification of an
