PC Res 3364RESOLUTION NO. 3364 BEING A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF CAMPBELL APPROVING A MODIFICATION (PLN2001-66) TO A PREVIOUSLY APPROVED CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT (UP 75-15) TO ALLOW THE PLACEMENT OF A MODULAR CLASSROOM AT CAMPBELL CHRISTIAN SCHOOL ON PROPERTY LOCATED AT 1075 W. CAMPBELL AVENUE IN A P-F (PUBLIC FACILIITES). APPLICATION OF MR. KEVIN ORD, ON BEHALF OF CAMPBELL CHRISTIAN SCHOOL. FILE NO. PLN2001-66. After notification and public heating, 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 PLN2001-66: 1. The proposed project is consistent with the Public/Semi-Public land use designation of the General Plan and the Public Facilities Zoning District. The proposed classroom of 960 square feet and 30 students, as conditioned, is well designed and architecturally compatible with other developments in the surrounding area and is consistent with the development standards for interim semi-public uses. 3. The proposed project is compatible with the adjacent residential and public-semi public uses. 4. The proposed classroom placement is centrally located on the site to minimize noise and activity impacts on adjacent residential uses. 5. The revision to the parking lot and driveways addresses the on-site circulation needs of the new classrooms. A significant portion of the peak hour traffic volume is generated by the school. The proposed project would increase traffic in the vicinity of Victor and Campbell Avenues by twelve percent (12%). This increase in traffic would be at least partially mitigated by future signalization at the intersection of Victor and Campbell Avenues. The contribution for participation in a future signalized intersection at Victor and Campbell Avenues is proportional to the anticipated traffic volumes associated with the expansion of the classrooms. Planning Commission Resolution No. 3364 PLN2001-66 - 1075 W. Campbell Avenue - Modification to Use Permit - Modular Classroom Page 2 The project is not located in a particularly sensitive environment; and no substantial evidence has been presented to suggest that there is a reasonable possibility that significant environmental impacts would result from the project, as conditioned, due to unusual circumstances or from the cumulative impacts of successive projects of the same type in the same place. Based upon the foregoing findings of fact, the Planning Commission further finds and concludes that: The proposed project will aid in the enhancement and the harmonious development of the immediate area. The establishment, maintenance, or operation of the use will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, peace, morals, comfort or general welfare of persons residing or working in the neighborhood of such proposed use, or be detrimental or injurious to property and improvements in the neighborhood or to the general welfare of the City. 2. The subject site is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the proposed uses and integrate them with the uses in the surrounding area. 3. The subject site is adequately served by streets of sufficient capacity to carry the kind and quantity of traffic such uses would generate. 4. The proposed uses are compatible with the uses in the area. 5. There is a reasonable relationship and a rough proportionality between the Conditions of Approval and the impacts of the project. 6. There is a reasonable relationship between the use of the fees imposed upon the project and the type of development project. 7. There is a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facilities for which fees are being imposed and the type of development project. o There is a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fees being imposed and the cost of the public facilities attributable to the project. The subject site is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the proposed uses and integrate them with the uses in the surrounding area. 9. The subject site is adequately served by streets of sufficient capacity to carry the kind and quantity of traffic such uses would generate. 10.
