1 21.42.010 Purpose
2 The purpose of the minor conditional use permit or conditional use permit is to allow special
consideration for certain uses to be located in zones other than those in which they are
3 classified as permitted because of their particular characteristics.
4 Such uses may only be suitable in specific locations in a zoning classification or only if such
uses are designed or laid out in a particular manner on the site or are subjected to specific
5 conditions to assure compatibility within the zone and its surroundings. Since it would be
impractical and detrimental to the peace, health, safety and general welfare to permit such uses
6 in all areas of the city in any one or more zones, the peace, health, safety and general welfare
will be promoted if such uses are authorized only by minor conditional use permit or conditional
7 use permit in accordance with the standards hereinafter set forth.
8 The privileges and conditions of a minor conditional use permit or conditional use permit
are a covenant that runs with the land, and, in addition to binding the permittee, bind each
9 successor in interest.
10 21.42.020 Authority.
The Planning Director or his designee may approve, conditionally approve or deny minor
conditional use permits and the Planning Commission or City Council may approve,
conditionally approve or deny conditional use permits, for uses in zones as prescribed in the this
. „ title, upon making the findings of fact listed in 21.42.030 below.
14 21.42.030 Findings of fact.
15 A. A minor conditional use permit or conditional use permit shall be granted only if
the following facts are found to exist in regard thereto:
16 1. That the requested use is necessary or desirable for the development of the
community, and is in harmony with the various elements and objectives of the general plan,
17 including, if applicable, the certified local coastal program, specific plan or master plan.
2. That the requested use is not detrimental to existing uses or to uses
18 specifically permitted in the zone in which the proposed use is to be located.
3. That the site for the proposed conditional use is adequate in size and shape
19 to accommodate the yards, setbacks, walls, fences, parking, loading facilities, buffer areas,
landscaping and other development features prescribed in this code and required by the
20 planning director, planning commission or city council, in order to integrate the use with other
uses in the neighborhood.
21 4. That the street system serving the proposed use is adequate to properly
handle all traffic generated by the proposed use.
22
B. When the subject of the application for minor conditional use permit or
23 conditional use permit is protected by the First Amendment to the United States Constitution, or
Article I, Section 2 of the California Constitution then only the definite objective guidelines and
24 standards of this chapter and of any other chapter of this code applicable to the property shall
apply. The general health, safety and welfare requirements of this subsection shall not apply
25 and any requirements of this code which may not be constitutionally applied shall be severed
from the requirements which may be constitutionally applied and those applicable shall remain
26 in full force and effect.
