The project site is 0.86 acres and is developed with an existing radiator <br /> shop, auto dismantling business and hardware store within a building that <br /> occupies less than 60 percent of APN 159-082-12. If the General Plan <br /> Amendment is approved, any additional use will be subject to this <br /> requirement. (Development Title Section 9-405.5[a]) <br /> (D) Located with primary access on a Minor Arterial or higher classification roadway. <br /> East Main Street is classified as a Minor Arterial roadway. <br /> General Commercial Typical Use (General Plan Volume I, page IV-23) <br /> Large, often freestanding businesses that are oriented to automobile access, such as <br /> discount stores, specialty retail, automobile sales lots, and automobile repair. <br /> The non-conforming commercial businesses in current operation on APN 159-082- <br /> 12 are consistent with the proposed amendment. There is a residence on APN <br /> 159-082-11 which is not consistent with the proposed amendment. Amending the <br /> General Plan designation for APN 159-082-11 does not appear to comply with this <br /> policy due to the size of this parcel, which is 0.21 acre. A parcel of that size <br /> cannot support "large' commercial uses as defined above. <br /> General Plan Amendment Conclusion <br /> The determination can :)e made that the proposed Amendment is consistent with the <br /> development and locational criteria for the C/G designation contained in the General <br /> Plan for APN 159-082-12. There are currently non-conforming commercial businesses <br /> on this parcel. The determination cannot be made that the proposed Amendment is <br /> consistent with the development and locational criteria for the C/G designation contained <br /> in the General Plan for APN 159-082-11. <br /> Basis for Zone Reclassification <br /> In order to approve an application for a Zone Reclassification, the Planning Commission <br /> and Board of Supervisors shall determine that the following Basis for Zone <br /> Reclassification can be made in the affirmative: <br /> a) The proposed zone district is consistent with the General Plan, any applicable <br /> Master Plan, and any applicable Specific Plan. <br /> • The proposed Zone Reclassification to change the zoning to C-G is <br /> consistent with General Plan Volume 1 page IV-23 General Commercial <br /> General Plan Policies for APN 159-082-12. The proposed Zone <br /> Reclassification to change the zoning for APN 159-082-11 is not consistent <br /> the General Commercial General Plan Policies. <br /> b) The proposed zone district is reasonable and beneficial at the time. <br /> • This determination can be made for APN 159-082-12 because the proposed <br /> C-G zone change will be a beneficial and logical extension of a zone <br /> district. The properties to the west of the project site are also zoned C-G <br /> 3 <br />
