FINDINGS FOR SITE APPROVAL <br /> PA-1900083 <br /> JOHN AND MARY LYNNE FRANZIA/LATITUDE 37 PARTNERS, LLC. <br /> 1. The proposed use is consistent with the goals, policies, standards, and maps of the General Plan, any <br /> applicable Master Plan, Specific Plan, and Special Purpose Plan, and any other applicable plan <br /> adopted by the County. <br /> • This finding can be made because the proposed winery may be conditionally permitted in <br /> the AG-40 (General Agriculture-40 acre minimum) zone with an approved Use Permit <br /> application. The project is also consistent with the goals, policies, standards and maps of <br /> the General Plan. The project must meet the noise ordinance requirements of sixty five(65) <br /> dB at the property line. There are no Master Plans, Specific Plans, and/or Special Purpose <br /> Plans in the project 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 adequate utilities, access roads,sanitation, drainage and <br /> other necessary facilities have been provided and the proposed improvements are properly <br /> related to existing and proposed streets and highways. The proposed winery will be served <br /> by an individual well and on-site storm drainage. The amount of storm drainage runoff <br /> generated by the construction of any new buildings will be contained on-site. The <br /> Department of Public Works is requiring the developer to provide drainage facilities and <br /> meet the requirements of San Joaquin County Development Standards to prevent the <br /> increased runoff release rate of storm water from discharging onto other properties and to <br /> prevent offsite sediment transport. Domestic wastewater services can be provided through <br /> a septic system. <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 parcel is of adequate size and shape to accommodate <br /> the proposed winery buildings and all yards, building coverage, setbacks, parking areas, <br /> and other requirements of the Development Title. The site plan shows that there is sufficient <br /> area for parking and circulation for the winery in compliance with standards of the <br /> Development Title. <br /> 4. Issuance of the permit will not be significantly detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare, or be <br /> injurious to the property or improvements of adjacent properties. <br /> • This finding can be made because an Initial Study prepared for this project found no <br /> potentially significant environmental impacts that could not be mitigated to a less than <br /> significant level. The landowner has agreed to participate in the San Joaquin Council of <br /> Governments Multi-Species Habitat Conservation and Open Space Plan. As a Condition of <br /> Approval, prior to ground disturbance, landowners proceeding with development of the <br /> parcel will need to contact the San Joaquin Council of Governments regarding the <br /> requirements of the Multi-Species Habitat and Open Space Plan. Additionally, the project <br /> must meet the noise ordinance requirements of sixty five (65) dB at the property line. <br /> 5. The use is compatible with adjoining land uses. <br /> • This finding can be made because the proposed uses will not interfere with nor alter the <br /> current land uses on adjacent properties. The properties surrounding the project site are <br /> zoned AG-40 and are being used for agricultural purposes with scattered residences. The <br /> nearest residence is located 440 feet south of the project site. <br /> PA-1900082 and PA-1900083— Findings 2 <br />
