DOC -1- PC2000-51 • • WHEREAS, said Commission, after due inspection, investigation and study made by itself and in its behalf, and after due consideration of all evidence and reports offered at said hearing, does find and determine the following facts: 1. That the proposed use is properly one for which a conditional use permit is authorized by Anaheim Municipal Code Sections 18.44.050.130 and 18.44.050.270 to construct a church facility with an accessory private preschool and elementary school, and with waivers of the following: (a) Section 18.04.042.020 - Institutional uses adjacent to residential zones. (minimum 15-foot landscaped setback required between church or school buildings and RM-1200 zoning; none proposed along the east property line) (b) Sections 18.06.050.020.021.0212 - Minimum number of arkin s aces. 18.06.050.026.0262 (201 spaces required; 122 spaces proposed) 18.06.050.026.0266 18.06.080 and 18.44.066.050 2. That waiver (a), required setbacks for institutional uses adjacent to residential zones, is hereby approved on the basis of a special circumstance pertaining to this property, which special circumstance consists of a 20-foot wide access easement (for the benefit of the adjacent apartment complex to the north) that is recorded along the east property and that restricts the petitioner's ability to comply with Code; and that this "setback" area was identified in a prior Conditional Use Permit No. 3691 as an emergency accessway for the adjacent apartment complex as well as for this church facility. 3. That waiver (b), minimum number of parking spaces, is hereby approved on the basis of the findings in the parking study prepared by Traffic Safety Engineers and dated January 18, 2000, and reviewed and concurred with by the City Traffic and Transportation Manager. 4. That the parking waiver, under the conditions imposed, will not cause fewer off-street parking spaces to be provided for the proposal than the number of such spaces necessary to accommodate all vehicles attributable to su~ch use under the normal and reasonably foreseeable conditions of operation of the use because the peak parking demand for off-street parking spaces is lower than the quantity provided for the proposed project site. 5. That the parking waiver, under the conditions imposed, will not increase the demand and competition for parking spaces upon the public streets in the immediate vicinity of the proposed use because the project parking lot will have ad'equate parking to accommodate the projecYs peak parking demands. 6. That the parking waiver, under the conditions imposed, will not increase the demand and competition for parking spaces upon adjacent private property in the immediate vicinity of the proposed use (which property is not expressly provided as parking for such use under an agreement in compliance with Section 18.06.010.020 of the Zoning Code) because the project parking lot is physically separated from adjacent development; and that there is no reason to encroach onto other parking facilities because the project site will provide adequate parking, as indicated in the parking study. 7. That the parking waiver, under the conditions imposed, will not increase traffic congestion within the off-street parking areas or lots provided for the proposal because the supply of project site parking spaces is adequate to accommoda~te the anticipated project peak parking demand. 8. That the parking waiver, uroder the conditions imposed, will not impede vehicular ingress to, or egress from, adjacent properties upon the public streets in the immediate vicinity of the proposed use because the project site is physically separated from adjacent private properties. -2- PC2000-51 ~ ~ 9. That the existing church and school buildings on the property will be demolished in order to construct the proposal. 10. That the proposal, under the conditioned imposed, will not adversely affect the adjoining residential and commercial land uses, nor the growth and development of the area in which it is proposed. 11. That the size and shape of this property is adequate to allow this proposal in a manner which is not detrimental to the surrounding residential and commercial area, nor to the peace, health, safety and general welfare. 12. That the traffic generated by the proposal, as conditioned, will not impose an undue burden upon the streets and highways designed and improved to carry the traffic in the area. 13. That granting Conditional use Permit No. 4187, under the conditions imposed, will serve the residents of the City of Anaheim and will not be detrimental to the peace, health, safety and general welfare of the citizens of the City of Anaheim. 14. That no one indicated their presence at the public hearing in opposition to the proposal; and that no correspondence was received in opposition.
