NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of the City of Carlsbad as follows: A) That the foregoing recitations are true and correct. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 B) That based on the evidence presented at the public hearing, the Commission APPROVES CANYON CREEK ANIMAL CLINIC - CUP 02-10, based on the following findings and subject to the following conditions: Findinps: - 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. That the requested use is necessary or desirable for the development of the community, is essentially in harmony with the various elements and objectives of the General Plan, and is not detrimental to existing uses specifically permitted in the zone in which the proposed use is located, in that the proposed veterinary clinic is a conditionally permitted use in the C-2 zone and will provide a necessary and desirable service to the residents of Carlsbad; required on-site parking exists to service the site and the site has adequate traffic circulation. Potential noise and waste impacts associated with veterinary clinic operation are to be mitigated through sound attenuation and waste mitigation measures incorporated into the design and operation of the clinic. That the site for the intended use is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the use, in that the project involves only tenant improvements to a building in an approved commercial center. No expansion of previously approved square footage is proposed. That all the yards, setbacks, walls, fences, landscaping, and other features necessary to adjust the requested use to existing or permitted future uses in the neighborhood will be provided and maintained, in the approved Site Development Plan for the commercial center ensured compatibility with surrounding residential uses through increased building setbacks and landscaping. The proposed veterinary clinic incorporates sound and waste mitigation measures into the design of the building and the operation of the clinic in order to minimize the potential impacts of veterinary clinic operation on surrounding land uses and tenants. That the street system serving the proposed use is adequate to properly handle all trafic generated by the proposed use, in that the impacts of future commercial tenants on the existing street system were evaluated and addressed though the approval of Site Development Plan, SDP 99-07, which approved the commercial center in which the clinic is to be located. That the Planning Director has determined that the project belongs to a class of projects that the State Secretary for Resources has found do not have a significant impact on the environment, and it is therefore categorically exempt from the requirement for the preparation of environmental documents pursuant to Section 15301, Existing Facilities, of the State CEQA Guidelines. In making this determination, the Planning Director has found that the exceptions listed in Section 15300.2 of the State CEQA Guidelines do not apply to this project. The Planning Commission has reviewed each of the exactions imposed on the Developer contained in this resolution, and hereby finds, in this case, that the exactions are imposed to mitigate impacts caused by or reasonably related to the project, and the extent and the degree of the exaction is in rough proportionality to the impact caused by the project.
