Resolution No. PC-2020-03 <br /> Page Five <br /> 5. Whether streets, buildings, and other manmade structures have been <br /> designed and located in such manner to complement the natural terrain <br /> and landscape: <br /> "Pad B" is in a developed area of the City, within a previously developed <br /> shopping center. Development of this site would not involve the extension of any <br /> new public streets. "Pad B" is flat and thus any future redevelopment, whether <br /> the proposed project or an alternative proposal, such as a restaurant without a <br /> drive through, would not require extensive grading and would not contrast <br /> unfavorably with the natural terrain. <br /> 6. Whether adequate public safety measures have been incorporated into the <br /> design of the plan: <br /> "Pad B" currently provides adequate access for police, fire, and other emergency <br /> vehicles. The proposed restaurant would be equipped with automatic fire <br /> suppression systems (sprinklers). Structures would be required to meet the <br /> requirements of the California Building Code, Fire Code, other applicable City <br /> codes, and State of California energy and accessibility requirements. Site <br /> specific soils analyses would be conducted in conjunction with the building permit <br /> review. Thus, approval of the amendment would not preclude adequate safety <br /> measures from being included in a future plan or project. <br /> 7. Whether the plan conforms to the purposes of the PUD District: <br /> In 1989, a PUD rezone and development plan (PUD-89-6) application was <br /> approved for Phase III of the Rose Pavilion Shopping Center which included a <br /> condition of approval to allow for a 5,000 square-foot-restaurant on "Pad B." The <br /> PUD approval explicitly prohibited a drive-through restaurant on "Pad B." In 1992, <br /> the PUD development plan was modified (PUD-89-6-4M) to allow for the <br /> construction of the current oil change facility on "Pad B." The action to approve <br /> PUD-89-6-4M did not remove the condition of approval prohibiting a drive- <br /> through restaurant on "Pad B." Accordingly, the condition of approval from <br /> PUD-89-6 would still be applicable to "Pad B" and a drive-through restaurant is <br /> not currently permitted or conditionally permitted. Given the Air Quality and GHG <br /> Emissions concerns stated above, the Planning Commission does not support <br /> eliminating the condition of approval prohibiting a drive-through restaurant on <br /> "Pad B." Accordingly, with this condition of approval still applicable, the Planning <br /> Commission cannot make this finding. <br /> Section 2: The Planning Commission hereby recommends the following to the City <br /> Council: <br /> a. Find the proposed PUD Major Modification inconsistent with the goals, policies, <br /> and programs of the General Plan and the goals and strategies of the Climate <br /> Action Plan; and <br /> b. Deny PUD-89-06-08M, based on the findings stated above. <br />the proposed <br /> restaurant properly takes into account environmental characteristics of"Pad B." <br />dential, and service activities close together, and plan development so it is <br /> easily accessible by transit, bicycle, and on foot. <br />f the relative loudness of sounds in air as perceived by the human ear. <br /> 3 The day-night average sound level is the average noise level over a 24-hour period. <br /> PUD-89-06-08M, 4210 Rosewood Drive Planning Commission <br /> 13 of 15 <br />sign revisions and/or conditions of approval. Some potential <br /> examples include: <br /> • The ordering speaker shall not be audible above the ambient noise levels beyond the <br /> property boundaries; and <br /> PUD-89-06-08M, 4210 Rosewood Drive Planning Commission <br /> 12 of 15 <br /> 2 of 15 <br />
