Based upon a public hearing for a Conditional Use Permit, Zone Variance and Tentative Parcel Map to allow the development of a three (3) unit residential condominium project without the required minimum lot width of 80 feet for property located at 5215 Farago Street, the Planning Commission - finds: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 1. That the site for the proposed use is adequate in size, shape, topography and circumstances in that the site has 75 feet of street frontage and a length of 210 feet for a total land area of 15,750 square feet or 0.36 acres. This land area would allow a total of four (4) dwelling units. The proposal involves three (3) units. 2. That the site has sufficient access to streets and high- ways, adequate in width and pavement type to carry the quantity and quality of traffic generated by the proposed use in that Farago Street is a local street with a 60 foot -wide right -of -way and a 36 foot wide roadway. 3. That the proposed use will not have any adverse effect upon the use, enjoyment or valuation of adjacent property or upon the public welfare in that the project has been designed with 15 foot second story setbacks, three park- ing spaces per dwelling unit and is of architectural design to compliment the immediate vicinity. ZONE VARIANCE 1. That there are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable to the property involved or to the intended use of such property, which do not generally apply to other properties in the same zone in that the subject site is proposed to be improved with detached two -story condominiums whereas surrounding properties are primarily improved with single -story single - family resi- dences.
