Staff, therefore, believes that this finding can be made. IX. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FINDINGS The Planning Commission must make the following findings prior to granting the conditional use permit for the operations of the Safeway grocery store and only to the operations of the pharmacy, bank, and the restaurant/cafe drive - through lanes: 1. The proposed location of the conditional use is in accordance with the objectives of the zoning ordinance and the purpose of the district in which the site is located. • The proposed conditionally allowed uses will support the neighborhoods and nearby businesses and will provide a variety of goods and services available to the business park tenants and the residents of the nearby neighborhoods. • Staff believes that the Safeway grocery store and the other commercial uses will potentially reduce the cross -town trips to similar businesses. The conditions of approval provide to the City the appropriate controls to ensure that the use does not have any negative impacts on surrounding businesses. The use permit is, therefore, in accordance with the objectives of the zoning for this property. Therefore, staff believes that this finding can be made. 2. The proposed location of the conditional use and the conditions under which it would be operated or maintained will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare, or materially injurious to the properties of improvements in the vicinity. A sufficient quantity of parking is provided on -site to accommodate the parking demands for this use. As proposed and /or conditioned, staff feels that the proposed use will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, and welfare, nor will it pose a threat to surrounding properties or improvements. Therefore, staff believes that this finding can be made. 3. The proposed conditional use will comply with each of the applicable provisions of this chapter. The site's present PUD zoning designation conditionally permits a grocery store. As proposed and conditioned, the uses and drive - through lanes comply with all relevant sections of the Pleasanton Municipal Code. Therefore, staff believes that this finding can be made. X. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends the Planning Commission forward Case PUD- 02 -07M and PCUP -210 to the City Council with a recommendation of approval by taking the following actions: Pleasanton Gateway Page 34 of 35 August 25, 2010
