CITY OF TEMPLE CITY RECOMMENDING APPROVAL OF A
REQUEST BY THE REORGANIZED CHURCH OF JESUS
CHRIST OF LATTER DAY SAINTS FOR A MODIFICATION
OF CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 83 -688 AND ZONE
VARIANCE 98 -1338 TO EXPAND AN EXISTING CHURCH
USE WITH THE ADDITION OF 3,088 SQUARE FEET AND
A PARKING VARIANCE LOCATED IN THE SINGLE
FAMILY RESIDENTIAL (R -1) ZONE AT 9468 BROADWAY
AVENUE; THE PROPERTY IS DESIGNATED
INSTITUTIONAL ON THE CITY'S GENERAL PLAN (THE
REORGANIZED CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER
DAY SAINTS)
The Planning Commission of the City of Temple City does hereby
resolve:
Section 1. Based upon a public hearing for the above
Modification of Conditional Use Permit 83 -688 and Zone Variance
98 -1338, the Planning Commission finds:
MODIFICATION OF CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
1. That the site for the proposed use is adequate in size, shape,
topography and circumstances in that the subject site has been
utilized for several years as a church use; the proposed
modifications and addition would allow for optimal use of the
available land and building area. Furthermore, the subject
site is situated in an ideal location, furnishing adequate
access without possible adverse impacts on neighboring
properties; and
2. That the site does have sufficient access to streets, adequate
in width and pavement type to carry the quantity and quality
of traffic generated by the proposed use in that the site is
served by Cloverly Avenue, a secondary street with a 40 foot
roadway and a 60 foot right -of -way and Broadway Avenue, a
secondary street with a 40 foot roadway and a 60 foot right -
of -way; and
3. That the proposed use will not have an adverse effect upon the
use, enjoyment or valuation of adjacent or neighboring
properties or upon the public welfare in that the addition of
the a second floor for sleeping quarters and the additional
building modifications maintains the current use of the
property. The subject property is designated as Institutional
on the City's General Plan; therefore, the use is consistent
with the City's General Plan.
ZONE VARIANCE
1. That there are exceptional and extraordinary circumstances or
conditions applicable to the property involved or to the
intended use of such property which generally apply to other

properties in the same zone in that the lot is 250 feet by 200
feet; which provides for a total lot size of 50,000 square
feet; and
2. That such variance is necessary for the preservation and
enjoyment of a substantial property right possessed by other
property similarly situated but which is denied to the
property in question in that the subject lot is comparable in
size, shape and proposed use to other properties in and around
the immediate area; other institutional uses including
churches have been granted similar approvals based upon the
fact that all available space is not occupied at any single
time; and
3. That the granting of the variance will not be materially
detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the adjacent
or neighboring properties in that the church use at this
location has been in existence for many years and the proposed
expansion will primarily accommodate dormitory type sleeping
for attendees at youth retreats which will be sponsored by the
facility. Said sleeping accommodations are not likely to
result in any additional parking or traffic problems at this
location; and
4. That there are special circumstances as provided in Section
65906 of the California Government Code in that the proposed
expansion would not conflict with either the Zoning Code or
the General Plan of the City of Temple City.
Section -2. This project should result in no significant
affects upon the environment and a negative declaration has been
prepared in accordance with the State CEQA guidelines. The initial
statement as prepared indicates that there is no potential for
adverse impact to the environment as it relates to all wild
animals, birds, plants, fish, amphibians and related ecological
communities, including the habitat upon which the wildlife depends
for its continued viability.
Section 3. Accordingly, the Modification of Conditional
Use Permit 83 -688 and Zone Variance 98 -1338 is approved subject to
the following conditions:
1. The proposed development shall be in substantial compliance
with the submitted development plans, except as modified
herein.
2. Building permits shall be obtained for all demolition work and
all new construction.
3. The exterior building facade shall match the coloring and
design indicated on the submitted colored elevations. The
architecture and design of the exterior building facade shall
