The proposed location of the 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 existing land use from inharmonious influences and harmful intrusions; and insuring that public and private lands ultimately are used for the purposes which are most appropriate and beneficial to the City as a whole. The subject tutoring facility provides small-group tutoring sessions in an enclosed area. In the past, the City has allowed similar uses in various locations in the City. The subject business is currently located on Main Street and has had no land use conflict with other businesses in the surrounding area. Allowing it to continue its operation in another area in the same marmer would be consisted with the above-cited objectives. The subject site is in the Valley Business Park, which has a mix of commercial, office, and other services businesses. The current tenants in the same building are office-oriented businesses. Given the nature of the proposed business, its operation should not interfere with other businesses in the same building or surrounding businesses' ability to operate. The anticipated number of instructors and students will not generate any unusual demands on the existing parking for the subject site or the surrounding III .
