11, 1995, and the determination that the site is large enough to accommodate all of the uses proposed in the application. Development/Design Constraints After denying Site Approval Application No. SA-94-22, the Planning Commission indicated that if a new application was submitted, its Site Plan should be prepared by a professional. The Commission noted that the Site Plan should identify the septic tank and leach lines, storm drainage details, and the proposed boat storage area. Staff from the Development Services Division, the Department of Public Works, and the Environmental Health Division of Public Health Services have reviewed the revised Site Plan and found rt adequate to formulate the recommended action and Conditions of Approval contained in the staff report. Onsite Services: The owner has proposed that he be permitted to continue using the existing on-site services for both the existing building's restroom and the mobile home, the latter installed without the required building and installation permits. As part of the application, the owner has indicated that the mobile home will be removed from the site but requests that he be allowed to continue using it for three months. Because the mobile home was illegally installed, the Conditions of Approval recommend that it be removed from the site within 30 days from the effective date of the action if the application is approved. Because the septic system on the site does not meet current Public Health standards, it must be brought into compliance if the application is approved. In addition, the Environmental Health Division has indicated that the portion of the site containing the replacement leach field (shown on the north end of the property on the revised Site Plan) may be used for an open storage area. Because the existing septic system includes a leach line under the proposed 25-foot-wide fire access lane, the Environmental Health Division has included a requirement in its recommended Conditions of Approval for barricades to prevent that line from being parked on or driven over. As an alternative to barricading the leach line, the owner may relocate the line to an area of the site that would not be in a circulation area. Storm water runoff generated by the original use was permitted to percolate naturally on the site. In order to comply with requirements of the Development Title, any additional storm water runoff generated as a result of approving the project would have to be collected in an on-site storm water retention pond. The existing well on the property has been inspected by Public Health Services staff and may be permitted to continue being used if the application is approved. Circulation: In order to provide adequate circulation through and access to the boat storage area on the north end of the site, the recommended Conditions of Approval require a minimum 24-foot-wide access aisle from one side of the property to the other. The aisle must be permanently paved and maintained between the edge of the pavement of Walnut Grove Road and the required wooden fence on the south side of the boat storage area. The aisle may be surfaced with six inches of base material within the storage area, or as required by the Thornton Fire District.

One of the letters stated that the business is 'improperly located' and is a public and health nuisance to the San Joaquin County SA-95-6/Coulter Community Development Page 6
