Resolution No. PC- 2016 -18 Page Two 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 or improvements in the vicinity. Condition 20 of UP -77 -13 required the Masonic Lodge to "provide an effective buffer between the development and the single family residential area surrounding the property." The staff report for the public hearing on June 22, 2016, detailed incidents in 2008 and 2009 (where police response was required) and which demonstrate that the Lodge was not in compliance with condition number 20. At the June 22, 2016 hearing, more than a dozen residents living in the vicinity of the Lodge voiced their concerns to the Planning Commission regarding noise and other issues at the Lodge demonstrating that the Lodge was not in compliance with condition number 20. With the revised conditions adopted by the Planning Commission on June 22, the operations of the Masonic Lodge will not have a detrimental impact on the public health, safety, or welfare, or be materially injurious to the properties or improvements in the vicinity. These conditions include but are not limited to setting hours of operation, allowable activities within and outside of the building, building capacity, and allowable levels of noise and light in order to ensure that the Masonic Lodge will not adversely affect residential properties in the area. Therefore, this finding can be made. 3. The proposed conditional use will comply with each of the applicable provisions of the Municipal Code which apply to conditional uses. The Pleasanton Municipal Code states that because of the unusual or uncharacteristic nature of some proposed land uses, conditional uses require special consideration so that they may be located properly with respect to their effects on surrounding properties. The revised conditions establish operational parameters for the Masonic Lodge and will bring its operation into compliance with the applicable provisions of the Pleasanton Municipal Code, particularly those related to noise. Therefore, this finding can be made. WHEREAS, the Planning Commission determined that with the revised conditions of approval, the existing use will be compatible with the surrounding neighborhood. NOW, THEREFORE, THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF PLEASANTON RESOLVES THE FOLLOWING: Section 1. Approves the modifications to UP -77 -13 to allow continue operation of the Masonic Lodge at 3370 Hopyard Road, subject to the conditions shown in Exhibit A, attached hereto and made part of this case by reference.
