BEING A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF CAMPBELL GRANTING APPROVAL OF ADMINISTRATIVE
PLANNED DEVELOPMENT PERMIT (PLN2019-234) ALLOWING THE
ESTABLISHMENT OF A SMALL HEALTH AND FITNESS STUDIO AND
A PARKING MODIFICATION PERMIT TO ALLOW FOR A REDUCTION
IN THE NUMBER OF REQUIRED PARKING SPACES AT 85 GILMAN
AVENUE IN THE P-D (PLANNED DEVELOPMENT) ZONING DISTRICT.
After notification and public hearing, as specified by law and after presentation by the
Community Development Director, proponents and opponents, the hearing was closed.
After due consideration of all evidence presented, the Planning Commission did find as
follows with respect to application PLN2019-234.
Environmental Finding
1. The project may be found Categorically Exempt under Section 15301 of the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), pertaining to the operation and leasing, and minor
alteration of an existing private structure.
Further Evidentiary Findings
1. The project site is located on the west side of Gilman Avenue, south of E. Campbell
Avenue and north of Sam Cava Lane.
2. The rectangular 8,268 square -foot property is developed with a surface level parking lot
at the front of the lot and an L-shaped two-story industrial building toward the back.
3. The project site is zoned P-D (Planned Development) and has a mixed -use General Plan
Land Use Designation of Medium -High Density Residential/Commercial.
4. The project site is located within Sub -Area 3 of the SOCA (South of Campbell Avenue
Area) Plan.
5. The applicant's proposal is for an Administrative Planned Development Permit
(PLN2019-234) to allow the operation of a small health and fitness studio with a Parking
Modification to allow for a reduction in the number of required parking spaces (9 parking
spaces provided / 16 spaces required).
6. The scope of work entails a complete interior remodel of the first floor (adding a new
reception area, office area, trash room, and new bathrooms with shower facilities),
removal of the second floor (approximately 700 sq. ft.), installation of two new accessible
paths of travel (extending along the southerly property line and in the public right of way
behind the driveway), and removal of a trash enclosure, landscaping, and a shed.
7. The proposed site improvements would result in the removal of landscaping on the
property in order to provide required accessible paths of travel.

Administrative Planned Development Permit (PLN2019-234) and Parking Modification
Permit
8. The Zoning code requires an Administrative Planned Development Permit for a change
of use to a small health and fitness studio in the P-D (Planned Development Permit)
Zoning District, subject to special provisions applying to small health and fitness studios
specified in Campbell Municipal Code Chapter 21.36.095.
9. A small health and fitness studio with less than 12-students has a parking requirement
of one parking space per 250 sq. ft. of gross floor area.
10. The proposed building size is 3,900 square feet (after the removal of a 700 sq. ft. interior
second level).
11. The site will provide 9 parking spaces.
12. The parking demand for the small studio is 16 parking spaces (15.6 after rounding up in
accordance with CIVIC 21.02.020.D. - Calculations - Rounding)
13. The applicant contends that less than the required number of parking spaces should be
allowed based on the proximity to public transportation, proposal to add a bike rack and
shower stalls, limited number of participants, and in consideration classes would be
staggered by 15-minutes. Further, the applicant contents that many of the members live
or work within .5 to 1.5 miles of the project site, have expressed an interest in supporting
alternative modes of transportation, and in consideration that the business caters to fit
clientele who utilize walking, biking and running in their daily lives and are therefore
highly likely to arrive without driving.
14. The Community Development Director understands the neighborhood has an existing
street parking issue and could not support the applicant's proposal at a staff level.
15. The Community Development Director forwarded the project to the Planning
Commission to consider the applicant's proposal in accordance with CIVIC 21.38.020 —
Authority for land use and zoning decisions.
16. A condition of approval provides the Community Development Director authority to
require a loading and/or unloading area for safe and acceptable means of drop-off and
pick-up of persons using the health and fitness center.
17. Applicable General Plan Policies considered by the Planning Commission included, but
were not limited to, the following:
Policy LUT-5.1: Neighborhood Integrity: Recognize that the City is composed of residential, industrial and
commercial neighborhoods, each with its own individual character; and allow change
consistent with reinforcing positive neighborhood values, while protecting the integrity of
the city's neighborhoods.
Policy LUT-13.1: Variety of Uses: Attract and maintain a variety of uses that create an economic balance
within the City while maintaining a balance with other community land use needs, such as
housing and open space, and while providing high quality services to the community.

Permit
18. The proposed use would offer group and personal/semi-personal fitness training
sessions.
19. As conditioned, no more than 9 occupants would be in the building at any one time
(including, but not limited to, all instructors, students, and staff).
20. As conditioned, the project's business/public (class) and operational (staff) hours shall
be restricted from 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. daily.
21. The Planning Commission's review of the proposed project encompassed zoning and
General Plan land use conformance, noise impacts, parking, property maintenance,
odors, security and enforcement, and neighborhood impacts.
Based upon the foregoing findings of fact, the Planning Commission further finds and
concludes that:
22. There is a reasonable relationship and a rough proportionality between the conditions of
approval and the impacts of the project.
lanned Development Permit Findinas (CIVIC Sec. 21.12.030.H.6):
23. The proposed development or uses clearly would result in a more desirable environment
and use of land than would be possible under any other zoning district classification;
24. The proposed development will be compatible with the general plan and will aid in the
harmonious development of the immediate area;
25. The proposed development will not result in allowing more residential units than would
be allowed by other residential zoning districts which are consistent with the general plan
designation of the property;
26. The proposed development will not be detrimental to the health, safety or welfare of the
neighborhood or of the city as a whole; and
Parking Modification Permit Findings (CIVIC Sec. 21.12.030.H.7):
27. Due to the unique nature and circumstances of the project, or special development
features, the anticipated number of parking spaces necessary to serve the use or
structure is less than that required by the applicable off-street parking standard, and
would be satisfied by the existing or proposed number of parking spaces, as supported
by review of the applicant's documentation and/or a parking demand study prepared by
a qualified transportation engineer accepted by the decision -making body; and
28. Approval of the parking modification permit will further the purpose of this chapter.
