Resolution No. PC-95-16 Page 2 Nearby residential uses include the Hacienda Gardens apartments located on the intersection of Old Santa Rita Road and Santa Rita Road, and miscellaneous single-family homes interspersed along the east side of the street are separated from the overall project site by distance and existing commercial uses. They would not be affected by the proposed used car business. For the mixed use nature of this particular site, staff has applied a parking ratio of one parking space per 350 sq. ft. Based on this standard, three parking spaces would be required for the 1,000 sq. ft. used car business. There are 67 full-size parking spaces on the project site and, ample on-street parking on Old Santa Rita Road directly accessible to the proposed business suite. Given the small number of employees -- two -- and number of customers -- two per day -- anticipated by the applicant, combined with the part-time nature of the proposed business, staff believes there would be adequate parking for employees and customers. The proposed business would be required to comply with the Uniform Building Code and the Pleasanton Fire Code, and would be required to secure the appropriate city permits prior to commencement. If necessary, the existing suite would be properly retrofitted to accommodate business needs. C. The proposed conditional use will comply with each of the applicable provisions of this chapter. By complying with the recommended conditions of approval, the application would meet the criteria for receiving a conditional use permit and would, therefore, comply with the intent of the zoning ordinance. As with any use permit, the permit for the used car business can be suspended or revoked if the conditions are not met. WHEREAS, projects of this nature are categorically exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA); and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission determined that the proposed project is compatible with the existing businesses located on the overall project site and the surrounding area. .
