e. The application contemplates warehouse tenants. Warehouse intensive uses are
permitted in this development district. Additional potential tenants include manufacturing uses which
are permitted subject to the availability of parking on-site; and
f. The applicant is required to provide 47 and 57 parking stalls for Building A and B,
respectively. They have provided 50 and 61 parking stalls for each respective building; and
3. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Commission during the
above-referenced public hearing and upon the specific findings of facts set forth in Paragraphs
1 and 2 above, this Commission hereby finds and concludes as follows:
a. The proposed development is in accord with the General Plan,the objectives of the
Development Code, and the purposes of the district in which the site is located. The proposed
project is to construct an industrial building and is consistent with development in the vicinity.
b. The proposed development,together with the conditions applicable thereto,will not
be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare or materially injurious to properties or
improvements in the vicinity. The surrounding properties are zoned industrial and the surrounding
uses are industrial-oriented.
C. The proposed development complies with each of the applicable provisions of the
Development Code. The proposed development meets all standards outlined in the Development
Code and the design and development standards and policies of the Planning Commission and the
City.
4. The Planning Department Staff has determined that the project is categorically exempt
from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the City's CEQA
Guidelines. The project qualifies as a Class 15 exemption under State CEQA Guidelines Section
15315 Minor Land Divisions as the project proposes the subdivision of one parcel into two parcels
and Section 15332, Class 32, In-Fill Development Projects as the project site is surrounded on all
sides by existing industrial development. In addition, there is no substantial evidence that the
project may have a significant effect on the environment. The Planning Commission has reviewed
the Planning Department's determination of exemption, and based on its own independent
judgment, concurs in the staff's determination of exemption.
