Revised Findings <br /> 1. The proposed use is consistent with the goals, policies, standards, and maps of the General Plan, any <br /> applicable Master Plan, Specific Plan, and Special Purpose Plan, and any other applicable plan <br /> adopted by the County. <br /> • This finding can be made because the proposed winery expansion may be conditionally <br /> permitted in the AG-40 (General Agriculture-40 acre minimum) zone with an approved Use <br /> Permit application. The winery expansion is also consistent with the goals, policies, <br /> standards and maps of the General Plan. The project must meet the noise ordinance <br /> requirements of 65 dB at the property line and have no more than to 300 attendees at each <br /> marketing event. There are no Master Plans, Specific Plans, and/or Special Purpose Plans <br /> in the project vicinity. <br /> 2. Adequate utilities, roadway improvements, sanitation, water supply, drainage, and other necessary <br /> facilities have been provided, and the proposed improvements are properly related to existing and <br /> proposed roadways. <br /> • This finding can be made because adequate utilities,access roads,sanitation,drainage and <br /> other necessary facilities have been provided and the proposed improvements are properly <br /> related to existing and proposed streets and highways. The project will be served by an <br /> individual well and on-site storm drainage. The amount of storm drainage runoff generated <br /> by the construction of any new buildings will be contained on-site. The Public Works <br /> Department is requiring the developer to provide drainage facilities and meet the <br /> requirements of San Joaquin County Development Standards to prevent the increased <br /> runoff release rate of storm water from discharging onto other properties and to prevent <br /> offsite sediment transport. Sewer services can be provided through a septic system. <br /> However, the applicant has indicated the City of Lodi will accept wastewater from this <br /> development into its facilities and has submitted written verification from the City of Lodi <br /> that City of Lodi will be providing trucked wastewater service under agreement. <br /> Additionally,the applicant is able to reduce the number of required parking spaces from 287 <br /> additional parking spaces to 69 parking spaces pursuant to Development Title Section 9- <br /> 1015.9. The addition of 69 parking spaces and 50 over flow spaces will be sufficient to <br /> accommodate for the proposed winery as the majority of square footage of buildings will be <br /> used for storage and there are existing parking spaces to accommodate existing operations. <br /> The Department of Public Works required a traffic study, which was prepared by KD <br /> Anderson & Associates Inc dated July 10 2018. Mitigation measures include improving <br /> the westernmost driveway access widening State Route 12 to extend the existing <br /> westbound left-turn lane and the project's main entrance and constructing an eastbound <br /> right-turn lane to the project's main entrance. <br /> 3. The site is physically suitable for the type of development and for the intensity of development. <br /> • This finding can be made because the parcels are of adequate size and shape to <br /> accommodate the proposed winery buildings and all yards, building coverage, setbacks, <br /> parking areas, and other requirements of the Development Title. The Site Plan shows that <br /> there is sufficient area for parking and circulation for the winery and marketing events in <br /> compliance with Standards of the Development Title. <br /> 4. Issuance of the permit will not be significantly detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare, or be <br /> injurious to the property or improvements of adjacent properties. <br /> • This finding can be made because the Initial Study prepared for this project found no <br /> potentially significant environmental impacts. Additionally, a traffic study was required by <br /> the Department of Public Works The traffic study identified three (3) mitigation measures <br /> PA-1900018 (UP) Conditions of Approval - Findings 1 <br />
