AND AMENDING CERTAIN CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL OF
RESOLUTION NO. PC99-110, AS PREVIOUSLY AMENDED.
(2861 EAST MIRALOMA AVENUE)
WHEREAS, on June 21, 1999, the Anaheim City Planning Commission, by its
Resolution No. PC99-1 l0, did approve Conditional Use Permit No. 4121 to permit and retain an

of the Northeast Area Specific Plan No, SP94-i; that the Anaheim General Plan designates this
property for General Industrial land uses; and
WHEREAS, the Anaheim Planning Commission did receive a verified Petition
for certain real property in the City of Anaheim, County of Orange, State of California, shown on
Exhibit A, attached hereto and inwrporated herein by this reference for an amendment to
previously-approved Conditional Use Permit No. 4121 to reinstate the permit and modify or

-1- PC2008-88
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
_ , . __
earing, does find and determine the following facts:
1. That an amendment to the conditional use permit to permit add a transporter
unloading area, temporary structures and a pazking waiver is permitted under authority of Code
Section 18.60.190;
2. That an amendment to the conditional use permit will not adversely affect the
adjoining land uses or the growth and development of the area because the addition of the
transporter unloading area would enabie the business to conduct these activities on-site;
3. That the size and shape of the site for the vehicle storage lot, as amended, is
adequate to allow full development of the proposed use in a manner not detrimental to the
particular area nor to the peace, health, safety, and general welfare because appropriate areas
have been designated for employee pazking circulation, vehicle staging and storage;
4. That granting of the amendment to the conditional use permit under the conditions
imposed will not be detrimental to the health and safety of the citizens of the City of Anaheim
and wili provide a land use that is compatible with the surrounding area because the requested
modifications would allow acfivities to be eonducted on-site and, further, that the parmanent plan
would be limited to vehicle storage;
5. That the variance will not cause fewer off-street parking spaces to be provided for
the proposed vehicle storage lot than the number of spaces necassary to accommodate all
vehicles for employees and visitors, based on the findings of the parking study conducted by
Kimley-Hom and Associates in July 2008; and
6. That the traffic generated by the vehicle storage lot would not impose an undue
burden upon the streets and highways designed and improved to carry the traffic in the area
because the use of vehicle transporters would reduce the overall number of trips to the site as
compared to each vehicle being driven to the site individually; and
7. That no one indicated their presence at said public hearing in opposition; and that
no correspondence was received in opposition to khe subject petirion.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Anaheim Planning
Commission has reviewed the proposal and does hereby find that the Negative Declazation
previously approved in connection with Conditional Use Perznit No. 4121 is adequate to serve as
the required environmental documentation in connection with this request.
