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