• Renewal from the Pleasanton Police Department is required every two-years. <br /> Staff has included Chapter 6.24 in its entirety for reference as Exhibit C. <br /> Zoning <br /> Massage establishments are referenced in Title 18 (Zoning) of the PMC to ensure that the <br /> location of a proposed massage establishment is consistent with the zoning and land use <br /> regulations. Massage establishments where three or fewer massage technicians provide <br /> massage services at any one time, and that meet the requirements of Chapter 6.24, are <br /> permitted uses in the Office District and Central and Regional Commercial Districts of Title 18 <br /> (Zoning) of the PMC. <br /> The subject site received Planned Unit Development (PUD) zoning for commercial and office <br /> development (PUD-C-O) in 1982 (Ordinance 1035, attached as Exhibit D). The City Council <br /> adopted a list of permitted and conditionally permitted uses for the shopping center in 1985 <br /> (Resolution 2691 approved under Ordinance 1215, attached as Exhibit E). Specifically <br /> allowed uses include "Barber shops and beauty shops" and conditionally allowed uses include <br /> "Beauty shops including massage services" and "Gymnasiums and health clubs including <br /> massage." Staff notes that these conditional uses were similar to what was conditionally <br /> allowed for non-PUD districts (e.g., Office and Commercial Districts) in the PMC at the time of <br /> PUD approval; however, the PMC has since be amended to allow beauty shops and <br /> gymnasiums and health clubs that include massage with three or fewer technicians at any <br /> given time as a permitted use. The list of PUD uses does not distinguish the number of <br /> technicians or address massage establishments as a stand-alone use. <br /> Meadow Plaza's Commercial-Office zoning designation lists uses that are consistent with <br /> those found in a non-PUD district, such as the Office or Central-Commercial zoning district. <br /> Adding massage establishments as a permitted use where three or fewer massage technicians <br /> provide massage services at any one time as a permitted use and massage establishments <br /> where four or more massage technicians provide massage services at any one time as a <br /> conditionally permitted use would be consistent with the Office and Central-Commercial zoning <br /> districts. <br /> Parking <br /> The PUD was approved and constructed with 237 on-site parking spaces. Meadow Plaza's <br /> approved development plan provided an overall parking ratio of one parking space per 223 <br /> square-feet of floor area. Should a massage establishment where three or fewer massage <br /> technicians provide massage services at any one time locate within Meadow Plaza Shopping <br /> Center, it would generate a parking demand similar to other permitted retail and personal <br /> service uses within the Center and could be accommodated by the 1/223 parking ratio. The <br /> parking demand for a massage establishment where four or more massage technicians <br /> provide massage services at any one time would be reviewed on a case-by-case basis through <br /> a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to ensure that there is adequate parking for the use. <br /> Email of opposition <br /> As described in Mr. Ho's email, he believes that a massage establishment should be "away <br /> from residential and school areas." Please refer to Exhibit B for Mr. Ho's email. Tranquil <br /> PUD-84-04-07M, Tranquil Massage Center Planning Commission <br /> Page 4 of 6 <br />
