The PUD process allows for ample input from the public and for an ultimate decision by the City Council regarding appropriateness of the proposed uses and development plan. Staff believes that through the PUD process the proposed project has provided residents, the applicant, and the City with a development plan that optimizes the use of this infill site in a sensitive manner. Therefore, staff believes that this finding can be made. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FINDINGS The Planning Commission must make the following findings prior to granting the conditional use permit for the proposed convenience market including alcoholic beverage sales and drive- through carwash. 1. The location of the proposed 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 objectives of the Zoning Ordinance include fostering a harmonious, convenient, workable relationship among land uses, protecting land uses from inharmonious influences and harmful intrusions, promoting a safe, effective traffic circulation system, and ensuring that public and private lands ultimately are used for the purposes which are most appropriate and beneficial to the City as a whole. As conditioned, staff believes that the proposed use would be consistent with these objectives. One purpose of the Commercial District is to provide opportunities for retail markets, offices, service establishments, amusement establishments, and wholesale businesses to concentrate for the convenience of the public and in mutually beneficial relationship to each other. The proposed uses would be operated on a site that currently allows commercial uses. The proposed convenience market would be compatible with adjoining shopping centers located to the south and east of the project site. The proposed convenience store would be limited to the hours of 5:00 a.m.-1:00 a.m. with alcohol sales limited to the hours of 6:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. The proposed carwash would operate from 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. Staff believes that the proposed hours of operation would be compatible with the commercial businesses in the adjoining shopping centers and would minimize impacts on the surrounding residents. Staff believes the proposed use, as conditioned, will be compatible with the other businesses in the surrounding areas. The applicant will be required to mitigate any future nuisances which may occur as a result of the proposed use. Therefore, staff believes that this finding can be made.
