PLN2009-10 Public Hearing to consider the application of Mr. Alireza Hirsa, Hirsa, A. D.C., for a Conditional Use Permit (PLN2009-10) to allow a medical (chiropractic) office on property owned by Ross-Green Valley II located at 268 E. Hamilton Avenue, Suite A, in a C- 2-S (General Commercial) Zoning District. Staff is recommending that this project be deemed Categorically Exempt under CEQA. Planning Commission action final unless appealed in writing to the City Clerk within 10 calendar days. Project Planner: Stephen Rose, Planning Intern Mr. Stephen Rose, Planning Intern, presented the staff report as follows: • Advised that the applicant is seeking a Conditional Use Permit to allow the establishment of a medical (chiropractic) use. • Described the project site as being on the south side of E. Hamilton Avenue, between Third Street and N. Central Avenue. The site is surrounded by commercial uses to the north, east and west and by residences to the south. • Added that the Zoning is C-2 (General Commercial), which allows medical office uses with issuance of a Conditional Use Permit. The General Plan land use designation is General Commercial. • Said that the site consists of 4.43 acres. The building coverage is 55,909 square feet. The tenant space consists of 726 square feet representing 1.3 percent of the building area. • Explained that 184 parking spaces are provided on site. The pro-rated share for this tenant space is three. The parking requirement for this use is four parking spaces. The Planning Commission has the authority to adjust parking if such an adjustment could be found to be warranted. • Said that that this use would consist of one full-time chiropractor. His proposed hours of operation are between the hours of 7 a.m. through 10 p.m. daily. Staff is recommending operational hours between 8 a.m. and 9 p.m. daily. • Recommended that the Commission adopt a resolution approving this Conditional Use Permit. Campbell Planning Commission Minutes for February 24, 2009 Page 3 Commissioner Gibbons asked if there is any record of how many uses on this site are deficient in parking. Is there a collective shortfall? Planner Stephen Rose replied no. Commissioner Gibbons said that this issue might need to be discussed later. Chair Ebner opened the Public Hearing for Agenda Item No. 1. Chair Ebner closed the Public Hearing for Agenda Item No. 1. Motion: Upon motion of Commissioner Rocha, seconded by Commissioner Gairaud, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution No. 3935 approving a Conditional Use Permit (PLN2009-10) to allow a medical (chiropractic) office on property owned by Ross-Green Valley II located at 268 E. Hamilton Avenue, Suite A, by the following roll call vote: AYES: Alderete, Alster, Ebner, Gairaud, Gibbons, Rocha and Roseberry NOES: None ABSENT: None ABSTAIN: None Chair Ebner advised that this action is final unless appealed in writing to the City Clerk within 10 calendar days. *** Chair Ebner read Agenda Item No. 2 into the record as follows: 2. PLN2009-01 Public Hearing to consider the application of Mr. Mike Callahan, M. Callahan for a Conditional Use Permit (PLN2009-01) to a martial arts (Taekwondo) studio in an existing retail center on property owned by Callahan/Mortin Trust located at 2020 S. Bascom Avenue, in a C-2-S (General Commercial) Zoning District. Staff is recommending that this project be deemed Categorically Exempt under CEQA. Planning Commission action final unless appealed in writing to the City Clerk within 10 calendar days. Project Planner: Stephen Rose, Planning Intern Mr. Stephen Rose, Planning Intern, presented the staff report as follows: • Reported that the project site is located on the southeast corner of Bascom and Campbell Avenues. It is surrounded by commercial uses to the north, south and west and residential uses to the east. Campbell Planning Commission Minutes for February 24, 2009 Page 4 • Said that the zoning for the site is C-2 (General Commercial) and the General Plan land use designation is General Commercial. A commercial school is allowed in this zoning district with issuance of a Conditional Use Permit. • Stated that the tenant space consists of 1,034 square feet or seven percent of the building area. • Added that site parking includes 77 spaces. The pro-rated share for this tenant space is four spaces. The use requires 15 spaces. However, the Planning Commission has the authority to adjust parking if appropriate. Staff feels that the parking adjustment is warranted due to the shared parking concept and the fact that the youth clientele of this business are non-drivers. Additionally, there are distinct and different use periods of the proposed use with the majority of the tenant space. • Said that the operation includes one-hour classes with between 10 and 15 students. • Stated that the studio would only operate two hours (between 3 and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday) when the great majority of other uses are in operation. • Advised that as a condition of approval, classes shall be staggered with 15-minute separations with a limit of one class or testing operation at any given time. There shall be no greater than 15 students at a time. • Informed that if a substantiated complaint is received, the Community Development Director can immediately revise hours and bring the Use Permit back to the Planning Commission for reconsideration. • Recommended approval. Commissioner Gibbons thanked staff for responding to the questions she raised earlier. Asked if this site is one parcel or two. Planner Stephen Rose said it was a single parcel. Commissioner Gibbons asked if there are existing parking deficiencies on site. Planner Stephen Rose said that the total parking provided is 77 spaces where 87.2 spaces are required. Commissioner Gibbons pointed out that with the need for 15 to support this Use Permit this applicant is creating the deficit of 11 spaces. Planner Stephen Rose replied correct. Commissioner Gibbons advised that she went and counted parking spaces on site and they didn't match the plan. She asked for verification that staff did its count using an aerial photograph of the site. Planner Stephen Rose replied correct. Campbell Planning Commission Minutes for February 24, 2009 Page 5 Commissioner Gibbons said that by her count there are one or two fewer spaces and another space has a dumpster sitting on it. Planner Stephen Rose said that the site plan deficiency is three spaces when compared to the aerial. Chair Ebner opened the Public Hearing for Agenda Item No. 2. Mr. Ryan Callahan, Applicant: • Said that he is the property owner. • Stated that he agreed with the staff recommendations. • Added that he is available for any questions. Commissioner Alderete thanked Mr. Ryan Callahan for coming. He asked about the white recycling dumpster that appears to be free-floating on the site. Is there a place where it should go? Mr. Ryan Callahan said that it should be stored in the dumpster corral. He assured that this is something that they could look at and corrected. Commissioner Alderete mentioned some graffiti he saw on the building during his site visit. Mr. Ryan Callahan agreed saying he had stopped by the property before this evening's meeting and saw that. He advised that this graffiti would be taken care of. Chair Ebner closed the Public Hearing for Agenda Item No. 2. Commissioner Alderete: • Reported that he had forwarded a question to staff about the conditions for this application that would cover one of the unique things about this use to support a parking deficiency -the young age of its customers. • Asked if the findings and/or conditions were modified to address this. • Reminded that this Use Permit approval runs with the property. • Added that it could become a real issue if a different martial arts operator were to take over this space with adult clients. Interim Director Ciddy Wordell pointed to the desk item distributed this evening for this item, which provided revised conditions. Commissioner Gibbons: • Said that this project review raises a problem with her. • Reminded that the Commission has approved lots of Conditional Use Permits over the last few years. • Reiterated that the Use Permit approval goes with the property. Campbell Planning Commission Minutes for February 24, 2009 Page 6 • Stated that when a condition of approval restrains a use, enforcement is a huge problem and there is often no way to enforce those restrictions. Many times the operator does anything that they want to do. • Concluded that she is more cautious with any liberal uses within a Conditional Use Permit. • Said that parking and safety are major considerations. • Said that when doing a Conditional Use Permit with a parking deficiency she is combining two things -the use does not quite blend in and there is parking to consider. • Reiterated her issues as: enforcement of restrictions; the fact that the Use Permit goes with the property; and the parking deficiencies. • Expressed appreciation for the parking table provided by staff. While there is a lot of parking there is still a deficiency of 11 spaces, which represents a 15 percent deficiency. All of the uses on site are retail and commercial. • Stated that she did not think that the conditions are enforceable. She added that she feels that the parking deficiency is an excessive percentage of spaces available. It sets the site up for a good neighbor/bad neighbor situation. • Informed that she is not supportive of this application. Commissioner Rocha said that he would support it. He said that given the varying types of uses, a deficiency of 10 spaces is a problem only if everyone affiliated with the site is there all at one time, which he believes is highly unlikely. He concluded that it is safe to say that there is no problem with this 10-space deficiency. Motion: Upon motion of Commissioner Rocha, seconded by Commissioner Alderete, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution No. 3936 granting Conditional Use Permit (PLN2009-01) for a martial arts (Taekwondo) studio in an existing retail center on property owned by Callahan/Mortin Trust located at 2020 S. Bascom Avenue, by the following roll call vote: AYES: Alderete, Alster, Ebner, Gairaud, Rocha and Roseberry NOES: Gibbons ABSENT: None ABSTAIN: None Chair Ebner advised that this action is final unless appealed in writing to the City Clerk within 10 calendar days. *** Chair Ebner read Agenda Item No. 3 into the record as follows: Campbell Planning Commission Minutes for February 24, 2009 Page 7 3. PLN2009-15 Public Hearing to consider the application of Mr. Jared Taylor, J. Taylor, on behalf of CVS Pharmacy, for a Conditional Use Permit (PLN2009-15) to allow 24-hour operation of an existing CVS Pharmacy (Longs Drugs) on property owned by Hamilton Avenue Investors, LLC, located at 1720 S. Bascom Avenue, in a C-2-S (General Commercial) Zoning District. Staff is recommending that this project be deemed Categorically Exempt under CEQA. Planning Commission action final unless appealed in writing to the City Clerk within 10 calendar days. Project Planner: Daniel Fama, Assistant Planner Mr. Daniel Fama, Assistant Planner, presented the staff report as follows: • Advised that the applicant is seeking approval of a Conditional Use Permit to allow late night operations for an existing drugstore located at 1720 S. Bascom Avenue in the Hamilton Plaza Shopping Center. • Reported that in 2001, Council adopted an Ordinance requiring that late night operations obtain a Conditional Use Permit to stay open after 11 p.m. and/or before 6 a.m. Even existing businesses were required to comply by 2003. • Described the site as consisting of amulti-building center. Longs has been on site since 1974. The site is at the northeast corner of Bascom and Hamilton Avenues and abuts residential uses to the east and commercial uses to the south. • Added that the zoning is C-2 (General Commercial) and the General Plan land use designation is General Commercial. This proposal is consistent with the issuance of a Conditional Use Permit. • Said that the Use Permit is for 24-hour operations. There are no physical changes proposed for the tenant space or site. • Stated that the currently operational hours are from 7 a.m. to 12 a.m. most days. There are no other businesses in this center that operate 24-hours a day. • Informed that the only other major drugstore in Campbell with 24-hour operation is Walgreens located at the corner of Hamilton Avenue and Winchester Boulevard, which was approved for 24-hour operations by the Planning Commission in 1997. • Said that a condition has been imposed that this use can be reviewed if verified complaints are received by the City and the Community Development Director can immediately reduce the hours of operation. • Reported that when Longs opened in 1974, it was issued a general liquor license without a Conditional Use Permit. As such, it is considered anon-conforming use. • Said that the Planning Commission must review the sale of alcohol in conjunction with this request for 24-hour operations. The Use Permit would allow the sale of alcoholic products subject to State law, between 6 a.m. and 2 a.m. • Added that although staff is not recommending reduced sales hours for alcoholic products, the Commission may choose to do so. • Pointed out that a condition of approval has been included that states that the area for sale of alcohol can be no more than 10 percent of the gross floor area. This is Campbell Planning Commission Minutes for February 24, 2009 Page 8 to ensure that this Use Permit is not used by a liquor store or similar use in the future. • Reported that currently the store uses less than 5 percent of its floor area for alcoholic products. • Informed that the Police Department has reviewed this application and has concerns about delivery and construction hours and use of the rear alley. • Added that, as conditioned, the time for deliveries, construction and use of the alley would be restricted to between 7 or 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. With these conditions, the Police Department is supportive of this application. • Recommended approval. Commissioner Rocha said he had wondered if it was within the Commission's purview to adjust hours for alcohol sales. Commissioner Gibbons reported that she had asked for clarification on Walgreens and thanked staff for providing that information. Chair Ebner asked staff if there have been any problems with Walgreens. Planner Daniel Fama said he didn't look into that. Chair Ebner opened the Public Hearing for Agenda Item No. 3. Mr. Jared Taylor, Applicant: • Said he was available for questions. • Thanked the Commissioners and staff for their work. • Reported that they are converting their locations across the country to provide consistent and public convenience. Commissioner Roseberry asked Mr. Jared Taylor how the sale of alcohol is restricted during hours that sales are not allowed by State law. Mr. Jared Taylor said that it is managed at the cash register. Clerks are not allowed to ring up alcohol after 2 a.m. He described the alcohol display areas as consisting of three 25-foot tiers and coolers along the wall. Commissioner Gairaud asked Mr. Jared Taylor if the Longs located at San Tomas Aquino Road and Campbell Avenue would also go to 24-hour operation or has one Campbell location been chosen over the other. Mr. Jared Taylor said that he is not involved in the decisions on which locations are chosen to go to 24-hour operation. Commissioner Alderete pointed out that Walgreens cancelled its liquor sales in the 1990's. Campbell Planning Commission Minutes for February 24, 2009 Page 9 Mr. Jared Taylor said his company prefers to sell alcohol in its locations. Their goal is to provide one-stop shopping. It is a public convenience. He pointed out that alcohol is only an accessory to overall sales. Chair Ebner closed the Public Hearing for Agenda Item No. 3. Commissioner Alderete said that he supports this request and that 24-hour operation is a good thing for Campbell. When someone needs medicine at night such an operation is critical and there are not many around. Commissioner Gibbons: • Said that she noticed the Noise and Noise Management conditions. • Suggested that Condition 12 be modified so that no garbage/recycling (especially glass) be allowed to be placed into the dumpsters after a certain hour. • Suggested adding 12-c to read, "Dumpster activity shall be restricted to prior to 10 p.m. and after 7 a.m." • Agreed that 24-hour operations are important but she also has trouble with 24-hour liquor sales so she has mixed feelings. Commissioner Rocha said he would like to see more restrictive alcohol sale hours and recommended midnight rather than 2 a.m. Commissioner Gairaud said he totally agreed that midnight was preferable but he had thought they were constrained by State law. Commissioner Roseberry said he has a different opinion. He said that State law is easier to enforce. It would be more problematic and harder for people working there to differ the alcohol sales hours from State law. He added that he does not see alcohol sales as a big contributor to the use. Chair Ebner said that he too has problems with the hours of alcohol sales and would like to see them restricted up to midnight. He added that he likes the idea of a 24-hour operation pharmacy. Commissioner Alderete said he supports the application as it stands. He said that the issue of alcohol sales is not a swing issue as grocery stores also sell liquor. He said he would not support further restrictions on alcohol sales hours. Commissioner Alster said he agreed with Commissioner Alderete. She pointed out that Safeway sells alcohol. She said it would be unfortunate if someone shops at Longs to fill a prescription late at night but would have to go to another store if they also happen to want to purchase alcohol. Commissioner Gibbons said that they have to be practical and agreed that it might be easier for staff to enforce hours with the provisions of State law. Commissioner Rocha asked if everyone is sure that Safeway sells alcohol up to 2 a.m Campbell Planning Commission Minutes for February 24, 2009 Page 10 Chair Ebner said he had forgotten about 24-hour supermarkets also being able to sell alcohol up to 2 a.m. Therefore, it is kind of a moot point. Motion: Upon motion of Commissioner Rocha, seconded by Commissioner Alderete, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution No. 3937 granting a Conditional Use Permit (PLN2009-15) to allow 24-hour operation of an existing CVS Pharmacy (Longs Drugs) on property owned by Hamilton Avenue Investors, LLC, located at 1720 S. Bascom Avenue, with the addition of Condition 12-c that requires trash and cleanup to be done between 6 a.m. and 11 p.m. daily, by the following roll call vote: AYES: Alderete, Alster, Ebner, Gairaud, Gibbons, Rocha and Roseberry NOES: None ABSENT: None ABSTAIN: None Chair Ebner advised that this action is final unless appealed in writing to the City Clerk within 10 calendar days. *** Chair Ebner read Agenda Item No. 4 into the record as follows: 4. PLN2009-08 Public Hearing to consider the application of Mr. Kabad Bugwadia, K. Bugwadia for a Conditional Use Permit (PLN2009-08) to allow a commercial school (Tutoring Center) in an existing 1,026 square foot tenant space located within an existing retail center on property owned by Oliva and Anthony Go located at 2234 S. Bascom Avenue, in a C-2-S (General Commercial) Zoning District. Staff is recommending that this project be deemed Categorically Exempt under CEQA. Planning Commission action final unless appealed in writing to the City Clerk within 10 calendar days. Project Planner: Steve Prosser, Associate Planner Mr. Steve Prosser, Associate Planner, presented the staff report as follows: • Explained that the applicant for this item is requesting a continuance. The applicant, property owner and staff have been in discussions regarding existing site conditions and previous project approvals associated with this multi-tenant site. • Added that the applicant is requesting a continuance to the March 10, 2009, meeting to better address some of those issues. • Recommended that the Commission open the Public Hearing and continue this item to March 10, 2009. • Reported that the applicant is present. Campbell Planning Commission Minutes for February 24, 2009 Page 11 Commissioner Gibbons asked staff to provide a table in the next staff report outlining cumulative parking deficiencies for this property. She also asked for clarification on property lines and parking per property. Chair Ebner opened the Public Hearing for Agenda Item No. 4. Motion: Upon motion of Commissioner Alderete, seconded by Commissioner Rocha, the Planning Commission continued to its meeting on March 10, 2009, consideration of a request for a Conditional Use Permit (PLN2009-08) to allow a commercial school (Tutoring Center) in an existing 1,026 square foot tenant space located within an existing retail center on property owned by Oliva and Anthony Go located at 2234 S. Bascom Avenue. (7-0) Chair Ebner advised that this item would be heard by the Commission on March 10, 2009. *** Chair Ebner read Agenda Item No. 5 into the record as follows: 5. PLN2009-24 Public Hearing to hear aCity-initiated Text Amendment Staff (PLN2009-24) to Update Campbell Municipal Code Section 21.22 (Flood Damage Prevention) to comply with current FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) standards. Staff is recommending that this project be deemed Categorically Exempt under CEQA. Tentative City Council Meeting Date: March 23, 2009. Project Planner: Steve Prosser, Associate Planner Mr. Steve Prosser, Associate Planner, presented the staff report as follows: • Explained that the City of Campbell is a participant in the National Flood Insurance Program. The Program, the associated flood maps and the Flood Management Program itself are managed by FEMA, which is now under the Department of Homeland Security. • Said that the purpose of the Flood Management Program is to minimize the amount of damage to public and private facilities due to flooding by providing the requirements for new construction in these low-lying areas. • Reported that FEMA visits every community on an annual basis to monitor each community's compliance with the management program. • Added that without this participation, City of Campbell residents would have to obtain very expensive flood insurance for their homes. • Continued that in January of this year, a representative of FEMA contacted the City advising that the City's current Flood Damage Prevention Ordinance did not reference the existing flood maps nor provide a mechanism for incorporating by reference any future updates to the flood maps. Campbell Planning Commission Minutes for February 24, 2009 Page 12 • Said that FEMA is currently in the process of providing digital flood maps that will become effective on May 18, 2009. In order for the City to continue to participate in the National Flood Insurance Program, its revised Ordinance must be in effect and meet FEMA's minimum ordinance standards, also by May 18, 2009. • Stated that representatives of FEMA provide the City with a list of recommended revisions that would bring the Flood Damage Prevention Ordinance into compliance. • Said that to comply with FEMA's minimum standards, Ordinance revisions are shown in Attachment 2 of the staff report consisting of strike through text for Ordinance language to be removed and bold underlined text showing revised or newly introduced language. • Said that staff is recommending modifying subsections 21.22.020 (Definitions); 21.22.030 (General Provisions); 21.22.040 (Administration); 21.22.050 (Flood Hazard Reduction) and minor typographical errors in the rest of the original Ordinance. • Recommended that the Planning Commission forward a recommendation to Council to find this Text Amendment to be Categorically Exempt under CEQA, Section 15308 (actions of regulatory agencies for the protection of the environment). • Said that staff also recommends adoption of a resolution recommending that Council approve this Text Amendment to CMC 21.22 in order to comply with FEMA standards. Commissioner Alderete asked staff why Los Gatos Creek is not included on the exhibit provided. Planner Steve Prosser advised that this particular exhibit does not include the entire area that will be covered just areas of change. The final flood map would include all associated creeks and waterways. Commissioner Alderete asked about the new and expanded definition of Historic Structures. He asked if there are any such structures in Campbell that would fall into this discussion of the flood plain. Planner Steve Prosser said he did not believe there were any historic structures in the new area. Commissioner Alderete said that the Historic Preservation Board might want to check its list for any sites that may fall into even a more expanded definition of historic structures. HPB keeps an expanded list and might be very interested. Commissioner Gibbons asked if the diagram depicts the area where levees are being decertified. Planner Steve Prosser replied correct, two levees are being decertified. Campbell Planning Commission Minutes for February 24, 2009 Page 13 Commissioner Gibbons asked didn't people need flood insurance anyway. This Flood Program participation by the City doesn't eliminate the need for personal flood insurance. Planner Steve Prosser agreed but said that participation does allow residents to join the Flood Insurance Program that has prices set by the government that are considerably lower than privately obtained flood insurance. Commissioner Gibbons asked if this means that if a homeowner in this area wants flood insurance they should go with the government and not private insurance. Planner Steve Prosser replied yes. He added that if their home is located in a designated flood area, they may be mandated by their lender to obtain insurance through this program. Commissioner Roseberry said that the diagram shows that this skirts extremely close to his own house. He asked if the blue lines drawn are the structure or property line. Planner Steve Prosser said that he asked the FEMA representative today and was told that the trigger is the structure. If an existing structure does not fall within the revised flood zone area, they are not required to obtain the insurance. Commissioner Alderete joked that he had thought that was a moat surrounding the Roseberry property and not Smith Creek. Commissioner Roseberry replied that if it had a drawbridge, then it would be a moat. Chair Ebner called for a break at 8:30 p.m. and Commissioner Roseberry about the proximity. so the City Attorney could consult with staff possible need to recuse himself due to Chair Ebner resumed the meeting a few minutes later and Commissioners Roseberry and Gairaud were absent after the determination was made that they should recuse themselves due to proximity of creeks to their respective homes. Commissioner Gibbons assured that the channel for San Tomas Creek is more than 500 feet from her home. Commissioner Alderete said that he might be within 500 feet of Los Gatos Creek. He asked if he too should recuse himself due to a conflict of interest due to proximity. He left the chambers for the remainder of this item. Chair Ebner asked if a continuance is in order here. Interim Director Ciddy Wordell reminded that this Ordinance update is on track to get to Council by a certain date to meet the FEMA deadline. Campbell Planning Commission Minutes for February 24, 2009 Page 14 Chair Ebner opened the Public Hearing for Agenda Item No. 5. Chair Ebner closed the Public Hearing for Agenda Item No. 5. Motion: Upon motion of Commissioner Rocha, seconded by Commissioner Alster, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution No. 3938 recommending approval of a Text Amendment (PLN2009-24) to Update Campbell Municipal Code Section 21.22 (Flood Damage Prevention) to comply with current FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) standards, by the following roll call vote: AYES: Alster, Ebner, Gibbons and Rocha NOES: None ABSENT: None ABSTAIN: Alderete, Gairaud and Roseberry *** REPORT OF THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR The written report of Ms. Ciddy Wordell, Interim Community Development Director, was accepted as presented. Commissioner Alderete said that he would like to ask staff to consider a more standard format on parking issues in their reports. There should be more of a hard and fast format that includes cumulative deficiencies. Commissioner Rocha said that they are seeing more references to shared parking. He added that there is no proof that shared parking does work without a parking study Commissioner Gibbons said that if parking illustrations contained within a staff report don't match site conditions, it would be helpful if the report states that.
