<br /> PA-2500121
<br /> CONFUCIUS CHURCH OF STOCKTON/WONG ENGINEERS INC
<br /> 1. The proposed use is consistent with the goals, policies, standards, and maps of the General Plan; any
<br /> applicable Master Plan, Special Purpose Plan, Specific Plan, and Planned Development zone; and any
<br /> other applicable plan adopted by the County.
<br /> • This finding can be made because the project, a cemetery expansion, is a permitted use for
<br /> a site with the General Plan designation A/UR(Agriculture/Urban Reserve)and zoned AL-10
<br /> (Limited Agriculture, 10-acre minimum) and P-F (Public Facilities) with the benefit of an
<br /> approved Conditional Use Permit. Development of the proposed cemetery expansion must
<br /> comply with all County regulations. There are no other Master Plans, Specific Plans, or
<br /> Special Purpose Plans in the 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 the project proposal demonstrates that adequate utilities,
<br /> access roads, sanitation, drainage, and other necessary facilities will be provided. The
<br /> project site will utilize an existing well for water supply and a new septic system for sanitary
<br /> sewer service. Stormwater drainage will occur naturally, as the majority of the site surface
<br /> will allow water to infiltrate into the ground. The existing cemetery is served by two access
<br /> points that are appropriately connected to existing public roadways. Two proposed access
<br /> driveways are proposed from an existing private roadway and new interior driveways and
<br /> parking areas will be added to accommodate site circulation needs.
<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 Site Plan,dated April 11, 2025, demonstrates the 3.9-
<br /> acre project site can accommodate all required components of the proposed cemetery
<br /> expansion. All improvements will comply with applicable Development Title regulations to
<br /> ensure that the scale,type,and intensity of the project are appropriate for the site.The project
<br /> site is zoned AL-10 (Limited Agriculture, 10-acre minimum) and P-F (Public Facilities),zones
<br /> that are applied to parcels that are suitable for the intensity of all permitted uses.
<br /> 4. The location, size, design, and operating characteristics of the proposed use will be compatible with
<br /> and will not adversely affect the livability or appropriate development of abutting properties and the
<br /> surrounding neighborhood.
<br /> • This finding can be made because the project conditions will require the project to comply
<br /> with all applicable Development Title regulations, ensuring that adjacent parcels are not
<br /> adversely affected.The project site is bordered by the Interstate 5 frontage road to the east
<br /> and the County hospital complex to the north, while agricultural uses with scattered
<br /> residences lie to the west and south. A cemetery is a low-intensity land use, and the
<br /> proposed expansion is not expected to negatively impact the livability, use, or future
<br /> development of surrounding properties.
<br /> 5. The proposed use will not create any nuisances arising from the emission of odor, dust, gas, noise,
<br /> vibration, smoke, heat or glare at a level exceeding ambient conditions.
<br /> • This finding can be made based on the nature of cemetery use,which is a low-intensity land
<br /> use not expected to generate nuisances related to odor, dust,gas, noise, vibration,smoke,
<br /> heat or glare at a level that would exceed ambient conditions.While the development phase
