F. The Planning Commission, in approving the proposed Conditional Use Permit,
makes the following findings, to wit:
1. There is a reasonable probability that Case No. PA92-0054, Conditional
Use Permit will be consistent with the City's future General Plan, which will be completed in
a reasonable time and in accordance with State law due to the fact that the tire store is consistent
with the existing zoning and the Draft General Plan land use designation of Community
Commercial.
2. There is not a likely probability of substanfml detriment to or interference
with the future General Plan, if the propos~ use is ultimately inconsistent with the plan due to
the fact that the proposed use is consistent with the existing zoning, the Draft General Plan Land
Use Designation of Community Commercial and the SWAP land use designation of Commercial,
and the existing developments of the surrounding area.
3. The proposed use or action complies with State planning and zoning laws
due to the fact that the proposed use complies with Ordinance No. 348 and the action complies
with State Planning Laws.
4. The site is suitable to accommodate the proposed land use in terms of the
size and shape of the lot configuration, circulation patterns, access, and intensity of use due to
the fact that the proposed development complies with the standards of Ordinance No. 348.
5. The project as designed and conditioned will not adversely affect the public
health or welfare due to the fact that the Conditions of Approval include measures which will
ensure that public health and welfare will be maintained.
6. The project is compatible with surrounding land uses. The harmony in
scale, bulk, height, intensity, and coverage creates a compatible physical relationship with
adjoining properties due to the fact that the proposed development is consistent with current
surrounding development and Ordinance No. 348.
7. The proposal will not have an adverse effect on surrounding property,
because it does not represent a significant change to the present or planned land use of the area
due to the fact that the surrounding properties are zoned Scenic Highway Commercial (C-P-S)
which are consistent with the project zoning and proposed use.
8. The project has acceptable access to a dedicated right-of-way which is open
to, and useable by, vehicular traffic due to the fact that the interior circulation is suitable and
connects with Winchester Road.
9. The project as designed and conditioned will not adversely affect the built
or natural environment as determined in the initial study performed for this project due to the
fact that the Conditions of Approval provide for the necessary mitigation for the project.
R:\S\STAFFRPT~54PA92.PC 2/23/93 klb 9
10. The design of the project and the type of improvements are such that they
are not in conflict with easements for access through or use of the property within the proposed
project as represented on the site plan.
G. As conditioned pursuant to Section 3, the Conditional Use Permit proposed is
compatible with the health, safety and welfare of the community.
Section 2. Environmental Compliance. An Initial Study was performed for this project
which determined that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the
environment, no significant impact would result to the natural or built environment in the City
because impacts will be mitigated by adherence to the attached Conditions of Approval which
have been added to the project, and a Negative Declaration, therefore, is hereby granted.
