General Plan.

existing building include converting aroll-up door to a window.
6. The proposal does not result in the removal of any onsite trees or landscaping.
7. As conditioned, the hours of operation would be limited to 5:00 AM to 9:00 PM daily.
8. The proposed project is not located within 300-feet of another health and fitness
center/studio or public assembly use and therefore does not result in an
overconcentration of similar uses.
9. Policies found within the Campbell General Plan articulate a desire to protect the
integrity of the city's neighborhoods, reduce the impact of industrial uses on adjacent
residences, and promote a variety of uses that create an economic balance within the
city.
10. The proposed small fitness studio is unique in that the maximum number of persons
that would be onsite at any time would be nine (9) individuals whom would be
adequately serviced by the nine (9) available parking spaces on the site.

concludes that:
