NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of the City of Carlsbad as follows: 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 A) B) That the foregoing recitations are true and correct. That based on the evidence presented at the public hearin th Commissio APPROVES PARKS MAINTENANCE BUILDING - CUP 03-31, based on the following findings and subject to the following conditions: Findinps : 1. 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 existing modular building is in disrepair and reduces the ability to provide maintenance functions to the City parks and selected roadway medians and parkways; the modular building is designed to the seismic safety standards of the State Department of Housing and Community Development; and the proposed modular office would not generate any additional traffic. 2. That the site for the intended use is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the use, in that all proposed improvements can fit within the existing site without the need for significant improvements or modifications and the proposed modular building would meet all applicable development standards. 3. 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 that the internal location of the modular building substantially screens it from view due to existing landscaping and structures, and thereby negates the need for any additional features to adjust the use to existing and permitted future uses and the proposed modular building conforms to the required setbacks. 4. That the street system serving the proposed use is adequate to properly handle all traffic generated by the proposed use, in that no additional traffic would be generated by the proposed modular building. 5. 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 fi-om the requirement for the preparation of environmental documents pursuant to Section 15303 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. 6. 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.
