499 Salmar A venue
Dear Mr. Kittler:
Thank you for your submittal of a preliminary application for the establishment of a personal
training facility in an existing commercial/industrial building on the referenced property. The
subject property is presently zoned P-D (Planned Development) and is designated as mixed use
area allowing residential/office and commercial/retail uses on the City's General Plan Land Use
Map in the North of Campbell A venue Study Area.
The proposed project would require approval of a Conditional Use Permit application:
1. Conditional Use Permit: Projects in a P-D Planned Development Zoning District with an
estimated construction cost of less than 50 thousand dollars may be considered under a
Conditional Use Permit process. The conditional use permit approves the proposed use, site
plan, elevations, and landscape plan for the subject property. The purposes of the Conditional
Use Permit review is to allow consideration of uses on a case by case basis. This approval
process takes into to 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.
The Planning Division completed the review of your preliminary application and has the
following comments regarding your proposal:
1. Site Design and Architectural Compatibility: No elevations were submitted. The Planning
Commission will be interested in how the storefront and roll up door will be improved with
the establishment of the new use.
2. Parking: The proposed training facility typically would require one parking spaces for each
200 square feet in gross building area. Your proposed 2000 square foot space would generate
a parking demand of 10 parking spaces. Your application indicates you have four parking
spaces. Please demonstrate that adequate parking is provided for your proposed use. The
Planning Commission will want to see that all parking needs are addressed on-site.
3. Landscaping: Typically a minimum of 10-15 percent of a commercial site is required to be
landscaped. No landscaping currently exist at this location. It is anticipated that the
Commission at a minimum will ask for landscaping adjacent to the tenant space and perhaps
some street trees.
