The proposed plan does not 'appear to be in the best interest of the adjacent residential neighborhoods as evidenced by the public's comments and concerns. The issues of traffic and land use compatibility raised by those neighbors have been indicative of the perceived incompatibility of the proposed project with the existing properties and land use. The project would not be the best land use for the site, nor would it serve the best interests of the public. Other commercial/office uses would be more beneficial to the property and surrounding land uses. 2. The proposed plan would not meet the General Plan policy of preserving the character of existing residential neighborhoods (Policy 1, Land Use Element) due to the perceived incompatibility of the proposed self-storage facility by the residential neighborhood.
