7. Notice of the public hearing satisfied the noticing requirements set forth in
Government Code Sections 65090 and 65091.
8. The project site is zoned M-2, Heavy Manufacturing.
9. The project site is designated Industrial by the Mid -Century General Plan.
10. The project proposes the redevelopment of the site for an auto body/repair
business.
SECTION 3. Based upon the information above, the Director finds:
1. The construction complies with all applicable provisions of the Zoning Code.
The project is for the construction of a new auto body/repair shop in M-2 zone. The
business is a permitted use and the Special Development Standards does not apply as
the site does not abut any R zoned properties. All activities will be conducted within
the proposed building. The proposed on-site parking meets the requirement of the
Zoning code. Therefore, the project meets this finding.
2. The construction is consistent with the General Plan, any applicable specific plan, and
any special design theme adopted by the City for the site and vicinity.
The project is consistent with the City's Mid -Century General Plan. The proposal is for
a new industrial building and the proposed Floor Area Ratio is .59, conforming to the
designated industrial use and the Maximum Floor Area Ratio of 1.0 set by the Mid-
century General Plan. The City's Architectural consultant has reviewed the project and
has determined that with condition of approval number two — the project will be
consistent with the Scope of Review section of the Site Plan Review Code, which
requires that a project improve the quality of development. The project design
incorporates a modulated exterior with appropriate articulation, high quality materials,
and will have sufficient glazing to introduce natural lighting for the offices on the
second floor and to further improve the quality of the architecture. Therefore, the
project meets this finding.
3. The approval of the site plan review is in compliance with the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA).
The project is exempt from the Californian Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in
accordance with Section 15332 (In -fill Development Projects) of the CEQA Guidelines.

4. The proposed structures, signs, site development, grading and/or landscaping are
compatible in design, appearance and scale, with existing uses, development, signs,
structures and landscaping for the surrounding area;
The surrounding developments feature a cluster of industrial buildings at a height of
20 to 35 feet. The proposed structure will be one story and at a height of 26 feet,
compatible with the surrounding developments. No substantial grading is proposed
and the landscaping will be finished according to the professionally prepared plans.
To complete the street right-of-way, the project will dedicate the first 30 feet land area
to the right-of-way and make necessary improvements. Therefore, the project meets
this finding.
5. The site is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the proposed structures, yards,
walls, fences, parking, landscaping, and other development features.
The site has a land area of 21, 250 square feet, large enough to accommodate the
proposed 12,500 square foot building and its parking need. The number of parking
spaces and the size of the parking lots both meet the parking standards of the Zoning
Code. Landscaping will be provided in the parking lots to soften the hardscape. The
landscaping will also provide a planter buffer for the trash enclosure located at the
end of the front parking lot. Therefore, the project meets this finding.
SECTION 4. This project is Categorically Exempt from environmental review pursuant to
Section 15332 an -fill Development Projects) of the California Environmental Quality Act
Guidelines.
SECTION 5. Accordingly, File No. 17-769 a request for a major site plan review to merge
two parcels and to construct a new industrial building for a auto body/repair shop is
approved, subject to the applicant complying with all requirements of the Temple City
Municipal Code and the conditions as set forth in Exhibits A through D to this resolution.
