presented in connection with the hearing, including, but not limited to, the Draft Planning
Commission Minutes, the Staff Report and all written and oral testimony presented.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL FINDS AS FOLLOWS:
1 . The size and scope of the project are more permanent in nature,
which requires a high degree of improvements to mitigate impacts.
As proposed, the plan lacks adequate improvements to mitigate
impacts upon the community and to implement the requirements of
the Zoning Ordinance and the General Plan.
�'. The improvements necessary to mitigate the impacts upon the
community and on surrounding properties are permanent in nature,
and the Temporary Conditional Use Permit is not the proper
mechanism to allow the proposed use.
3. The proposed use will generate a high level of activity which is more
appropriate for developed areas where the infrastructure is in place.
The intensity of the proposed use is not consistent with the rural
character and development pattern of the area in which the site is
located.
zl_ Based on the facts noted above, the project will be detrimental to the
public health, safety, and welfare, and will be materially injurious to
properties in the immediate vicinity of the site.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that, based upon the foregoing, the City Council
hereby denies Temporary Conditional Use Permit 2-98_ "
