Resolution No. PC-2004-13 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. As proposed, this use should not generate any unusual demands on the surrounding area in terms oftraffic and parking. As demonstrated, the Humane Society is able to provide on-site parking that would be normally anticipated for its use. The proposed use is to be operated indoors, and the activities would not interfere with adjacent uses. As conditioned, the Humane Society would meet the occupancy and other requirements of the Pleasanton Municipal Code, Fire Code, and Uniform Building Code. As conditioned, the proposed use will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, and welfare, nor will it pose a threat to surrounding properties or improvements. Therefore, this finding can be made. 3. The proposed conditional use will comply with each of the applicable provisions of the Zoning Ordinance. The site's zoning conditionally permits the establishment of veterinary clinics with overnight boarding, which is interpreted to be similar to the operations of the Humane Society at this location. The proposed use complies with all relevant sections ofthe zoning ordinance. Therefore, this finding can be made. WHEREAS, the Planning Commission made the following findings for the variance: I. Because of special circumstances applicable to the property, including size, shape, topography, location or surroundings, the strict application of the provisions of this chapter deprives such property of privileges enjoyed by other properties in the vicinity and under identical zoning classification. The Stanley Business Park properties are required to maintain a minimum depth of 100 feet. However, as a remnant parcel, this property has a net depth of 66 feet, measured across the mid-point of the site, and the depth of the subj ect property is 34 percent less than the Business Park standard. This factor makes compliance with the normal rear building setback requirement more difficult on this lot than on the other Business Park lots. Regarding the proposed rear yard variance, it would only affect a 30-foot long portion of an already 117-foot long building, or 26 percent ofthe proposed building's length. Additionally, this is a one-story building with an 81 percent floor area ratio, and the rear property line of the site adjoins the Arroyo Del Valle, with no neighbors immediately adjoining
