Preliminary Application Comments - Hafez Academy
File No.: PRE 2004-25 - 400 Budd Avenue
Dear Applicant:
Thank you for your submittal of a preliminary application for the establishment of a language
and art program in an existing church on the referenced property. The subject property is
presently zoned R-1-8 (Single-family residential) and is designated as a Low Density Residential
Land Use on the City's General Plan Land Use Map. The church was originally established at
this location via a Conditional Use Permit in the 1980' s.
The establishment of the proposed use will require approval of a Modification to the prior
Conditional Use Permit. An application is enclosed.
Your application was distributed to the Public Works Department, Building Division, Planning
Division and County Fire Department. Please note that these comments are meant to be
preliminary. Conditions of approval from each department will be developed when the formal
application is submitted.
The Planning Division completed the review of your preliminary application and has the
following comments regarding your proposal:
1. Conditional Use Permit: The Modification to the Conditional Use Permit approves the
proposed use, site plan and elevations for the subject property. The purpose of the
Conditional Use Permit review is to allow consideration of uses on a case-by-case basis.
This approval process takes into consideration the location of the use as well as on-site
improvements. An application for a Conditional Use Permit is enclosed. A processing time
of 45-60 days is typical for a Conditional Use Permit and requires consideration by the
Planning Commission through a public hearing process.
2. Building Permits: Tenant improvement plans will need to be submitted to the Building
Division after the Planning Commission's approval. Plans for a commercial occupancy need
to be prepared by a licensed Architect or Engineer.

3. Parking: Please illustrate the parking needed for employees and clients as well as a
designated area for drop off and pick-up of students.
4. Potential Noise: Your use permit application needs to address the operational hours of the
center and any potential noise associated with the educational use. Please provide any
relevant information with your use permit application that will demonstrate how your
existing establishments monitor noise levels generated by students.
5. Landscaping: The project site is deficient in landscaping. It appears that landscaping
associated with the church has not been maintained.
6. Accessory Structure: The site plan depicts an accessory structure in the rear parking area.
The original plans and a search of Planning Division records does not provide an indication
that this structure has been approved.
Thank you for the opportunity to review your preliminary application. Please do not hesitate to
contact me at (408) 866-2144 or by email at timh@citvofcampbel1.com to schedule a meeting to
discuss these comments or the application process.
Sincerely,
