PLANNING COMMISSION CITY OF PLEASANTON ALAMEDA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA RESOLUTION NO. PC-91-24 RESOLUTION APPROVING A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT AS FILED UNDER CASE UP-91-4 FOR SUE WHITBECK WHEREAS, Sue Whitbeck has applied for a conditional use permit to establish a large family day care home (7-12 children) to be located at 5090 Independence Drive; and WHEREAS, zoning for the property is PUD (Planned Unit Development) - Low Density Residential District; and WHEREAS, at their duly noticed public hearing of March 27, 1991, the Planning Commission considered all public testimony, relevant exhibits and recommendations of the city staff concerning this application; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission made the following findings: A. That 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. Objectives of the zoning ordinance include: protecting existing land uses from inharmonious influences and harmful intrusions; fostering harmonious, convenient, workable relationships among land users; 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. As conditioned, the proposed large family day care would be consistent with these objectives, because it would retain the residential characteristics of the neighborhood due to its limited scale and size. The subject site is zoned PUD (Planned Unit Development) - Low Density Residential District. Large family day care homes are allowed in single- family residential districts subject to the standards in the Municipal Code. As conditioned, the Code standards are met. Therefore, the use permit for the large family day care is in accordance with the objectives of the zoning district.
