Item No. 5 PC: 10-22-92 UP-92-26 Page 2 STAFF ANALYSIS BACKGROUND: On August 30, 1991, the Planning Division approved Site Approval Application No SA-91-35 for the parking of two trucks and four trailers at this site. POLICY CONSIDERATIONS: General Plan and Zoning: This Use Permit is being processed pursuant to the 1995 General Plan and Planning Title. The site is designated Agriculture on the General Plan. The zone is AG-40 (Agriculture, 40-acre minimum lot size). Trucking terminals may be permitted in the AG zones with a Use Permit. Trucking terminals in the AG zones are subject to several locational and developmental criteria identified in Section 9-4005.4(k) of the Planning Title. This site meets the locational criteria in that it is located on a minor arterial within one mile of a freeway interchange. The project, as proposed, does not meet several developmental criteria. These deficiencies, however, have been explained to the applicant and are discussed below. With the recommended conditions of approval, the project can meet the requirements of the Planning Title. Under the provisions of the 2010 General Plan, this project may be permitted within an I/T (Industrial/Truck Terminad General Plan designation and an I-T (Industrial-Truck Terminal) zone district. This site is designated Agriculture on the 2010 General Plan and is zoned AG-40. Therefore, under the 2010 General Plan, this project is not permitted without a General Plan Amendment and a Zone Reclassification. AREA/NEIGHBORHOOD COMPATIBILITY: Land Use: The site is bordered on the north, east, and south by agricultural uses. To the west is the ten- acre trucking terminal for 30 trucks for Paul Vaz that was approved by the Commission on September 17, 1992. Lodi (Linds) Airport is located approximately one mile northwest of this site, on the west side of State Route 99. Operational Characteristics: The proposed office is a trailer located in an enclosed area on the northwest comer of the site. It is recommended that the trailer be moved outside the enclosed area and that appropriate Building and State permits be acquired for the trailer. If the trailer cannot be upgraded to a 'commercial coach' status, other arrangements will need to be made to provide for an office. The existing 21-foot by 48-foot garage, the parking structure, and the shop will require building permits for a 'change of occupancy' from agricultural buildings to the proposed use.
