Resolution No. PC-93-32 Page 2 B. That 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. The use would be located in a light-industrial park district improved with streets, sidewalks, and landscaping. Parking on-site would be sufficient because even though there are 17 allotted parking spaces on the proposed site, all the spaces would not be occupied as parents would mostly drop off and pick up their children since they are very young and cannot come by themselves. staff has also added a condition of approval which requires a 15 minute break between lessons limiting the gym cars to a maximum of 16 on-site at anyone time. staff does not foresee a parking problem but a condition of approval has been added whereby the project could be reexamined at a public hearing if a problem arises. Noise would not be an issue here as the gym teachers would play music for about 5 minutes each hour on an average. The music has to be played at a level for the children to follow the teachers' directions and does not go above 61 dB. Staff has not received any complaints from the tenants in the building the Diablo Gym presently operates in (i.e. at 1249 Quarry Lane) and does not foresee noise problems occurring if the gym moves to Suite B at 1279 Quarry Lane. The lease agreement for Diablo Gym indicates that the gym will be fitted with two exits. The owner of the building has confirmed that a double-door exit will be installed to replace a window that looks onto Valley Avenue. This solves the issue of the Fire Department regulations which require that in a space of 4,200 square feet with children inside, two exits must be provided in order that children be evacuated quickly in an emergency. Should problems arise due to parking shortage or excess traffic or noise, a condition is included that will allow the use permit to be re-evaluated by the Planning commission at a public hearing. The gymnastic lessons will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare. No changes will be made to the exterior of the structure, and no part of the use will be conducted out of doors.
