The proposed use is consistent with the goals, policies, standards, and maps of the General Plan, any applicable Master Plan, Specific Plan, and Special Purpose Plan, and any other applicable-plan adopted by the County. • This finding can be made because Pursuantto Development Title Section 9-203.010,the use type Animal Care, Sales, and Services — Stables is permitted in the AG zone with an Administrative Use Permit.The project site has a General Plan designation of A/G (General Agriculture), and the AG-40 (General Agriculture, 40-acre minimum) zoning district is an implementing zone consistent with that designation. Therefore, the proposed -use is consistent with the goals, policies, standards, and maps of the General Plan: There are no applicable Master Plans,Specific Plans,or Special Purpose Plans affecting the project site 2. Adequate utilities, roadway improvements, sanitation, water supply, drainage, and other necessary facilities have been provided, and the proposed improvements are properly related to existing and proposed roadways. • This finding can be made because the project site will be served by existing on-site well and septic systems, and natural storm drainage. Access to the site will be provided via West Linne Road, a County-maintained roadway capable of accommodating the proposed use. No additional utilities or infrastructure improvements are necessary to support the proposed use. Therefore, adequate access and necessary facilities have been provided. 3. The site is physically suitable for the type of development and for the intensity of development. • This finding can be made because the project site totals approximately 12.26-acres, providing sufficient area to accommodate the proposed commercial stables. The site currently has a single-family residence, an arena area and horse stalls for personal use by the owners, allowing for adequate space to convert the existing facilities into a commercial use. The existing parcel configuration and access from West Linne Road are adequate to accommodate the proposed- use and comply with applicable Development Title requirements. The access driveway will be reduced from 25-feet to 20-feet, however, this was previously approved by south County Fire Authority and will have limited visitor usage per month. Therefore, the site is physically suitable for the type and intensity of development proposed. 4. The location, size, design, and operating characteristics of the proposed use will be compatible with and will .not adversely affect the livability or appropriate development of abutting properties and the surrounding neighborhood. • This finding can be made because the proposed commercial stable will be established on previously developed parcel and does not include construction of new buildings or structures. The operational characteristics of the proposed use, including visitation of boarders 1-2 times per month and deliveries 2-4 times a month, are consistent with other agricultural-related uses permitted within the AG zoning designation. Access from West Linne Road is adequate to support project operations. With no new permanent structures, building expansion, or increased development intensity proposed, the project is not expected to adversely affect the livability or appropriate development of surrounding properties. Therefore, the proposed use will be compatible with the surrounding neighborhood. 5. The proposed use will not create any nuisances arising from the emission of odor, dust, gas, noise, PA-2600008—Findings 1
