The proposed use is consistent with the goals, policies, standards, and maps of the General Plan, any applicable Master Plan, Specific Plan, and Special Purpose Plan, and any other applicable plan adopted by the County. • This finding can be made because the expansion of an Agriculture Processing — Food Processing use type may be conditionally permitted in the AG-40 (General Agriculture, 40 acre minimum)zone with an approved Use Permit application.The project site has a General Plan designation of A/G (General Agriculture), and the AG-40 zone is an implementing zone for this designation. The proposed agriculture processing expansion is consistent with the goals, policies, standards and maps of the General Plan, and there are no Master Plans or Specific Plans in the vicinity. 2. Adequate utilities, roadway improvements, sanitation, water supply, drainage, and other necessary facilities have been provided, and the proposed improvements are properly related to existing and proposed roadways. • This finding can be made because adequate utilities, access roads, sanitation, drainage, and other necessary facilities have been provided and the proposed improvements are properly related to existing and proposed streets and highways. The project site is already served by an on-site well. Construction of an onsite wastewater treatment system is required, under permit and inspection by the Environmental Health Department, as a Condition of Approval. The Department of Public Works is requiring the developer to provide drainage facilities that meet the requirements of San Joaquin County Development Standards for the runoff attributed to this application. Additionally, the private roadway accessing the parcel from East Louise Ave. has been improved and provides a durable, dust-free travel surface. 3. The site is physically suitable for the type of development and for the intensity of development. • This finding can be made because the property is 40.36 acres and of adequate size and shape to accommodate the proposed use and all yards, building coverage, setbacks, parking areas and other requirements of the Development Title. 4. Issuance of the permit will not be significantly detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare, or be injurious to the property or improvements of adjacent properties. • This finding can be made because the project as designed will meet all the requirements of the Development Title. The project was determined to be exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15303, Class 3. This exemption includes the construction of small structures, and the 2,500-square-foot office was determined to fall within the requirements of this exemption. Therefore, issue of the permit is not anticipated to be significantly detrimental. 5. The use is compatible with adjoining land uses. • This finding can be made because the proposed use will not interfere with nor alter the current land uses on adjacent properties. The adjacent parcels are primarily agricultural with scattered residences, and the nearest residence is located 796 feet east of the developed area. The proposed use may be conditionally permitted in the AG-40 (General Agriculture, 40-acre minimum)zone subject to an approved Use Permit application. PA-2200026— Findings 1
