• This Principle of Compatibility can be made because the use-.:ill not significantly displace or impair current or reasonably foreseeable agricultural operations on the subject contracted parcel or parcels or on other contracted lands in agricultural preserves. The proposed use is for a poultry egg farm on the contracted parcel. (3) The use will not result in the significant removal of adjacent contracted land from agricultural or open-space use. In evaluating compatibility a board or council shall consider the impacts on noncontracted lands in the agricultural preserve or preserves. • This Principle -of Compatibility can be made because the existing use, Animal Raising - Smatl Animals, will encourage continued and expanded agricultural uses in the area. The Animal Raising - Small Animals use type is a permitted use on property u-nder contract subject to an approved Site Approval application. The existing use is a poultry egg farm and is consistent with surrounding agricultural uses and with the AIG (General Agriculture) General Plan Designation. Therefore, it will not result in the significant removal of adjacent contracted land from agricultural oropen-space use. Parking and Loading The site plan depicts forty-three (43) proposed automobile parking spaces for Phase 2 and seven (7)- additional proposed automobile parking spaces for Phase 3. SA-92-0073 required two (2) parking spaces for the single family residence on-site and a minimum of three (3) parking spaces for the office/processing plant. Pursuant to Development Title Section 9-1015.3, the Animal Raising - Small Animals use type requires 0.67 spaces per 1,000 square feet of buildings. As a result, no neer parking spaces are required for Phase 1 since no buildings are proposed. However, twenty-two (22) additional parking spaces are required for Phase 2; thirty seven (37) additional parking spaces are required for Phases 3, 4,and 5 for a total of one hundred and eleven (111) parking spaces; and thirty-three (33) additional parking spaces-are-required for Phase 6 for a minimum of one hundred and sixty-six(166) parking spaces at full build-out. The site plan also depicts eighteen (18) existing truck loading spaces. Pursuant to Development Title Section 9-1015.6(b), two (2) loading spaces shall be required for each use having twenty thousand (20,000) to forty thousand (40.000) square feet of gross floor area. In addition, one (1) loading space is required for each twenty thousand(20,000)square feet of gross floor area, or major fraction thereof, over forty thousand (40,000)square feet. As a resutt, no new loading spaces are required for Phase 1 because no buildings are proposed. Additionally, no new loading spaces are required for Phase 2 because the existing loading spaces already meet the required number of loading spaces for the-existing and proposed structures in Phase 2. However, one (1) additional loading space is required for Phase 3; three (3) additional loading spaces are required for Phase 4; three (3) additional loading spaces are required for Phase 5; and two (2) additional loading spaces are required for Phase 6 for a minimum of twenty-seven_(27)loading spaces at full build-out. However, pursuant to Development Title Section 9-1015.9, the automobile parking and truck loading requirements may be modified by the Director in cases in which the requirements set forth may be considered insufficient or excessive. The applicant submitted a letter requesting a modification from the required one hundred and sixty-six(166) parking spaces to_parking spaces, and from twenty-seven (27) loading spaces _ loading spaces because the expansion project will not include an increase in the number of employees and will only include a minimal increase in the number of truck trips to the site. The Community Development Department has reviewed the request and is recommending that the Planning Commission approve the project with a reduction in the required amount of parking.
