SAN JOAOUIN COUNTY L DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING AND BUILDING INSPECTION H , 1810 E. HAZELTON AVE., STOCKTON, CA 95205 CHET DAVISSON PLANNING PHONE: 209/468-3120 Director BUILDING PHONE: 209/468-3123 JERRY HERZICK NEIGHBORHOOD PRESERVATION PHONE: 209/468-3021 Deputy Director RENEJACKSON Deputy Director TOM WALKER June 1 4, 1 989 Deputy Director MEMORANDUM TO : Development Committee FROM : Planning Division SUBJECT : PRE-APPLICATION CONFERENCE FOR USE PERMIT APPLICATION NO. UP-89-24 OF SAINT NIRANKARI CHURCH ( C/O IKE RAI ) ----------------------------------------------------------------- The proposed project is to establish a 4, 560 square foot church facility on a . 954 acre parcel . The General Plan designation for the project site is Low Density Residential and the zoning is RA.-30 (Residential , 30 , 000 square foot lot minimum ) . RA-30 is not a consistent implementing zone for the Low Density Residential designation . However , according to Section 9-5102 ( a ) of the Planning Title , churches may be conditionally allowed in an RA-30 zone subject to an approved Use Permit. Land Use : The surrounding land use is predominantly residential. Due to the narrow configuration of the subject parcel , it will be diffi- cult to fit the church on the parcel and protect the residential users from the potential impacts of the church . It is indicated on the site plan that the parcel to the west is vacant. At a minimum , staff would recommend acquiring this parcel in order to better accommodate the proposed use and allow greater separation between the church and nearby residences . The current site plan cannot be supported by staff . Some of the ordinance requirements and constraints in utilizing such a narrow site are discussed below. Setbacks : The proposed church is to be located on a long , narrow parcel which is 66 feet wide and 630 feet deep. The minimum width of any lot in an RA-30 zone is to be 150 feet. Since the subject parcel is nonconforming in width , per Section 9-3227 (d ) ( 2 ) , each required side yard may be reduced in width to 10 percent of the width of the lot, which would be 6. 6 feet. A 30 foot front and rear yard setback is req-.ired .
