P23-0840, 6654 Owens Drive Planning Commission 6 of 6 1. Denial of the application. Such an action would limit the applicant’s operations to a maximum of 20 students at a time, which is permitted in the zoning district; or 2. Approval of the CUP with modifications. The Planning Commission could approve the CUP, but with fewer students, with modified hours of operation, or other changes to the proposal. Since staff is able to support the findings to approve the project, as proposed, and believes the project will not adversely impact any existing on-site uses or the surrounding area, staff suggests that neither of the two project alternatives above should be pursued. PUBLIC NOTICE AND COMMENTS Notices of this application were sent to surrounding property owners and tenants within a 1,000-foot radius of the site and a notification was posted on-site per the on-site project notification policy. Staff has provided the location and noticing map as Exhibit C for reference. At the time this report was published, staff had not received any public comments about the project. PLEASANTON BUSINESS PARK CENTER ASSOCIATION While the City does not require the approval of the Pleasanton Business Park Center Association (Association) prior to Planning Commission consideration, the Association has reviewed the application for the proposed use and found it is in substantial compliance with the Pleasanton Business Park Center guidelines set forth in its Covenants, Codes & Restrictions (CC&Rs). ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT This project is categorically exempt (Section 15301, Class 1, Existing Facilities) from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Therefore, no environmental document accompanies this report. SUMMARY/CONCLUSION As proposed and conditioned, staff believes the proposed tutoring facility will be compatible with, and will not detrimentally affect, the existing or future on-site and adjacent/nearby uses or residences. Conditions of approval have been included which will ensure that the safety and general welfare of the surrounding area, and the City in general, is maintained. Staff believes the proposed use will fulfill a community need and the proposed location is appropriate.
