6. PROJECT CHARACTERZSTICS
j.
' The applicant proposes to operate a auto repair shop and
service center at the subject site. The center will include
an auto parts store in addition to the proposed uses. The
center will be maintained in a commercial building,
approximately, 7,240 square feet at the northeast corner
of Olanda Street and Atlantic Avenue. The applicant
requests to maintain several uses in a building where no
off-street parking is currently being provided.
The rear portion of the existing building contains
printing equipment. However, the equipment is slated to be
removed from the premises to allow automobiles awaiting �
, repair to be housed.
i
The proposed development is required to provide fifteen �
(15) parking spaces. The applicant must obtain at least �
twelve (12) of the required spaces, and such these spaces �
must be provided off-site if the printing business is to
remain. �
7. Chronoloav of Events �
On March 22, 1990, the Site Plan Review Committee i
recommended approval of the proposed development to the
Planning Commission, subject to specific conditions, j
including parking (see item no. 8),
On April 12, 1990, the Planning Commission opened public I
hearings on the matter and voted to continue the item to I
its regularly scheduled meeting on May 8, 1990, in order �
to allow the applicant time to secure required parking. i
On April 18, 1990, staff inet with the applicant to discuss
the possibility of providing alternative parking within 300 (
feet of the proposed development as allowed by the Zoning I
Ordinance.
It was discussed that the existing site does not have �
sufficient off-street parking for the proposed use. �
However, the interior layout of the existing building on '
site can provide for adequate space to house automobiles �
awaiting repair. The applicant was informed that there
would be no parking allowed on City streets.
The applicant was also informed that he would be required I
to secure parking located within 300 feet of the project '
site for employee and student parking. The applicant must
obtain at least twelve (12) of the required fifteen (15) �
. parking spaces within a 300 foot radius. In addition, a i
covenant and agreement would be signed by the applicant,
the City, and the lessor, to guarantee required parking. �
During the meeting, staff furnished the applicant with i
owners names and address for property directly opposite the �
subject site. The applicant agreed to contact the owner of I
the vacant property to �segotiate for the use of the I
property for parking. The applicant inform the staff that
attempts had been made to contact the owner of the property 1
to the north of his site to secure parking. However, at ;
that time, tiie owner intended to begin construction on the '
site in three (3) months.
On June 12, 1990, at the regularly scheduled meeting of the
Planning Commission, Staff distributed a letter from the
applicant requesting an extension. it was advised by the
Deputy City Attorney that the item should remain on the �
agenda in order not to approve the request by default. The d
Commission agreed to continue the item to its regularly �
scheduled meeting on July 10, 1990.
�
2
• After the June 12th meeting, Staff found that the rear
, portion of the building is still housing a printing press
operation and it will remain in the building for three (3)
months. Since Mr. Gray proposes to provide some parking
within the building, the use of the rear portion for
printing poses a parking problem. Thereby, eliminating the
potential for parking within the building.
On June 22, and 25, 1990, staff inet with Mr. Gray fo
discuss his inability to acquired parking within (300)
three-hundred feet of the property. He informed Staff that
employee parking is available across the street. With the
inability to provide the required parking, Mr. Gray and
staff have agreed that the auto repair portion of the
business is not available for use, because of lack of
parking. When necessary parking is secured, Mr. Gray can �
return to the Commission and request approval of a Modified �
Conditional Use Permit to include the auto repair service. �
i
On July 10, 1990, Staff reported to the Planning Commission �
that it was proposing a change of recommendation from
approval to denial because required parking had not been
obtained and automobiles were being repaired at the subject
site and on the street.
After testimony by the applicant and discussion by the �
Commission, a motion was made and approved to grant a 30-
day extension to the applicant with the condition that no '
auto repair take place on the proposed site, and, the rear �
of the building be vacated for parking., �
On July 11 and 26, 1990, Staff documented that the '
applicant was, or, had repaired automobiles at the proposed • I
site in violation of the condition established by the �
Planning Commission during its July 10, 1990 meeting. In �
addition several conversations, either in person, or via
telephone, was held with the applicant concerning this
matter.
Mr. Gray continuously violated the motion by the Planning
Commission that no auto repair shall be conducted during �
. the 30-day extension period. Staff inspections show 1 to 3 �
cars had been worked on. The date and time of inspections �
is documented. Staff spoke personally to Mr. Gray on July
13, 26, and 31, 1990, with respect to parking requirements
and the status of the building. The practice by Mr. Gray's
employees of working on cars parked in the street has �
continued, and will continued as long as the printer '
equipment occupies the rear portion of the building.
8. Site Plan Review
At its regular meeting on March 22, 1990, the Site Plan '
Review Committee evaluated the proposed development and
recommended approval to the Planning Commission, subject to
specific conditions and requirements. ,

ANALYSIB AND CONCL08ION
• • 1. Consistencv With General Plan
The proposed land use is consistent with the existing
zoning classification, (CS-1 Planned Business) and the
General Plan designation of Commercial. Therefore, granting
Conditional Use Permit No. 40 will not adversely affect the
General Plan.
2. Site Suitability �
The property is adequate in size and shape to accommodate !
the proposed development relative to structures, walls, and �
� other development features required by the Zoning
Ordinance. However, the site is unsuitable because it does �
not contain enough area for required parking. i
Atlantic Avenue is a major arterial and is well suited to !
carry the quantity of traffic the proposed development �
would generate. �
3. Comoatibility I
The proposed development is surrounded by a mixture of �
commercial developments; therefore, the.project will be i
compatible with the surrounding land uses. However,
residential uses are adjacent west and east of the proposed I
use.
4. Comoliance With Development Standards , i
The proposal does not meet all of the development standards
required by the Zoning Ordinance with respect to parking
requirements. j
5. Conditions Of ADproval �
The improvements as proposed, will have a negative effect '
on the values of the surrounding properties or interfere i
with or endanger the public health, safety or welfare.
, 6. Benefits To Communitv i
The proposal as planned, and without providing required i
parking, will not assist in upgrading the commercial use of �
the property and support the Commercial designation of the I
General Plan.
7. �nvironmental Assessment !
The Community Development Department Staff has determined �
that the project is categorically exempt pursuant to '
Section 15061 b(3) of the State of California Environmental
Quality Act of 1989 as amended.
RECOMMENDATION �
Staff respectfully requests that after consideration, the �
Planning Commission deny C.U.P. 40. I
1. Certifying that the project is categorically exempt from
the provisions of the State CEQA Guidelines as amended by
Section 15061 b(3). �
I
2. The inability of C.U.P. 40 to provide adequate parking for
intended uses poses a parking problem for the area. The �
parking requirement is not met.
3. The applicant continues to repair cars in the street in I
violation of the condition stipulated in the 30-day
extension period that there shall be no auto repair. �
