Mitigation measures have been included in the conditions of approval of this resolution. SECTION 3. Having considered all of the oral and written evidence presented to it at said public hearings regarding the Site Plan Review, the Planning Commission further finds, determines and declares that: The site plan is consistent with the goals and polices embodied in the General Plan and other applicable plans and policies adopted by the Council. The subject site has a General Plan Land Use Designation of General Commercial and all uses are within the Resolution No. 15 -2922 Downey Planning Commission C -2 (General Commercial) zone. The intent of the land use designation and zoning to provide commercial and service uses in the City that serves the broadest community and regional needs. The proposed restaurants will meet these needs by providing additional eating establishments for those who live and work in the area. Furthermore, General Plan Policy 1. 1.4 states "Provide an appropriate amount of land area for people to acquire goods and services." This approval will provide additional eating opportunities to those who live and work in the area. These restaurants will be complementary to the other retail /commercial uses that are located in the vicinity of the project site. It is also a policy of the General Plan (Policy 8.2.2) to "Promote the upgrading of properties." The proposed improvements will not only upgrade the subject site by removing the buildings that have fallen into disrepair, but will serve to upgrade all the surrounding properties, by enhancing the streetscape. 2. The proposed development is in accordance with the purposes and objectives of Article IX and the zone in which the site is located. One of the purposes of the Zoning Code is to allow development of properties, while avoiding impacts of the adjoining area. The majority of the subject site is within the C -2 (General Commercial) zone, which intends to provide commercial and service uses in the City in order to serve the broadest community and regional needs. The proposed project meets both of these goals by providing restaurants that have been designed in a manner that will enhance the streetscape and provide food service to those who live, work, and travel through the area. The remainder of the site is within the P -B (Parking Buffer) zone, which was intended to separate commercial land uses from adjoining residential use by limiting the zone to parking spaces and landscaping. The applicant has only provided parking and landscape in the P -B portions of the site. 3. The proposed development's site plan and its design features, including architecture and landscaping, will integrate harmoniously and enhance the character and design of the site, the immediate neighborhood, and the surrounding areas of the City. The site is currently improved with a vacated car dealership, whose buildings have fallen into disrepair. There is little landscaping currently provided on the site. The applicant's proposal includes the construction of new buildings using a traditional architectural style, with contemporary design elements. Furthermore, the applicant is proposing to utilize a variety of landscaping that will give the site a pleasant visual appearance. The combination of the landscaping and architectural style will serve to enhance the site and the entire area. The proposed architecture will integrate with the existing architecture of other buildings in the area. 4. The site plan and location of the buildings, parking areas, signs, landscaping, luminaries, and other site features indicate that proper consideration has been given to both the functional aspects of the site development, such as automobile and pedestrian circulation, and the visual effects of the development from the view of the public streets. The proposed project will allow two buildings at the subject site, one of which will have a drive -thru lane. This drive -thru lane has been located in a manner such that pedestrians will not need to traverse it to get to the building. Furthermore, the proposal exceeds all requirements for parking and on -site landscaping, which has been designed to facilitate movement on the site and minimize points of conflict. Finally, the applicant is proposing sufficient parking lot illumination to ensure a hazard does not occur at night. Based on this, the applicant has taken into consideration proper pedestrian and vehicle circulation in designing the site. Consequently the use of landscaping along the front setback will give a proper visual effect of the site from the street. 9516 Lakewood Blvd — PLN -14 -00239 May 20, 2015 - Page 2 Resolution No. 15 -2922 Downey Planning Commission 5. The proposed development will improve the community appearance by preventing extremes of dissimilarity or monotony in new construction or in alterations of facilities. In the City of Downey, there are a virtual plethora of architectural styles, particularly for the commercial developments in this area. The proposed architecture is a traditional architectural style, with some contemporary elements incorporated. An outdoor plaza creates a pedestrian friendly urban commons space that promotes both an intimate and quiet ambiance. Combined with a lush and colorful landscape, the project provides a warm and inviting space for those who live and work in the area. The proposed architecture will allow the buildings to blend nicely with the architectural styles of the other buildings in the area; all while avoiding a monotonous streetscape. This project will upgrade the overall appearance of the site and, in turn, improve the community appearance. 6. The site plan and design considerations shall tend to upgrade property in the immediate neighborhood and surrounding areas with an accompanying betterment of conditions affecting the public health, safety, comfort, and welfare. The site is currently improved with a vacated car dealership, whose buildings have fallen into disrepair. There is little landscaping currently provided on the site. The proposed landscape plan utilizes trees on the south and east side of the project that will reach a mature height in excess of 30' with canopies that reach 25' wide. The use of large canopy trees in conjunction with the increased setbacks for the buildings will provide proper screening for the adjoining uses. As noted in previous finding, the project will serve to enhance the property and the streetscape. When this is considered with the proposed landscape plan the project will promote the public health, safety, and welfare of those who work or reside in the area. 7. The proposed development's site plan and its design features will include graffiti resistant features and materials in accordance with the requirements of Section 4960 of Chapter 10 of Article IV of this Code. As part of this approval, several conditions of approval, which include the use of graffiti resistant materials in the construction of the building, have been included. Should any graffiti appear on the site, an additional condition of approval that requires the applicant have it removed within 48 hours of application. With these conditions, the design features will include be in accordance with Section 4960 of the Municipal Code. SECTION 4. Having considered all of the oral and written evidence presented to it at said public hearings regarding the Conditional Use Permit, the Planning Commission further finds, determines and declares that: The requested Conditional Use Permit will not adversely affect the purpose and intent of the zoning code or the City's General Plan or the public convenience or general welfare of persons residing or working in the neighborhood thereof. The subject site has a General Plan Land Use Designation of General Commercial and all uses are within the C -2 (General Commercial) zone. The intent of the land use designation and zoning to provide commercial and service uses in the City that serves the broadest community and regional needs. The proposed restaurants will meet these needs by providing additional eating establishments for those who live and work in the area. Furthermore, General Plan Policy 1. 1.4 states "Provide an appropriate amount of land area for people to acquire goods and services." This approval will provide additional eating opportunities to those who live and work in the area. These restaurants will be complementary to the other retail /commercial uses that are located in the vicinity of the project site. It is also a policy of the General Plan (Policy 8.2.2) to "Promote the upgrading of properties." The 9516 Lakewood Blvd — PLN -14 -00239 May 20, 2015 - Page 3 Resolution No. 15 -2922 Downey Planning Commission proposed improvements will not only upgrade the subject site by removing the buildings that have fallen into disrepair, but will serve to upgrade all the surrounding properties, by enhancing the streetscape. 2. The requested use will not adversely affect the adjoining land uses and the growth and development of the area in which it is proposed to be located. The subject site is within a fully developed area of the City, with little to no vacant properties in the immediate area. More specifically, the surrounding properties are improved with either residential or commercial developments. The proposed development is designed in a manner that will not impact the ability of the surrounding properties to grow and /or develop. This is achieved by exceeding all requirements for setbacks, parking, and landscaping. Notwithstanding this, several conditions of approval have been included that will serve to mitigate any potential impacts on the neighboring properties. 3. The size and shape of the site proposed for the use is adequate to allow the full development of the proposed use in a manner not detrimental to the particular area. The subject site is an approximate 3.53 -acre lot that is currently improved with a vacated car dealership. The proposed project will demolish all buildings on site to accommodate the new buildings, a drive -thru lane, and an outdoor eating area. The proposed project exceeds all development standards for the zone. The proposed site layout allows for proper vehicle and pedestrian movement, while allowing for larger setbacks and more landscaping than the code requires. This demonstrates that the site has adequate size and shape to allow the full development of the proposed use in a manner not detrimental to the particular area. 4. The traffic generated by the proposed use will not impose an undue burden upon the streets and highways in the area. The subject site can be accessed via Lakewood Blvd or Gallatin Rd. A traffic impact analysis was prepared, which studied the level of service at seven intersections in the City. The result of the analysis was that the project would not create additional delay or worsen the level of service at the studied intersections. Accordingly, there will be no undue burden on the streets or highways in the area. SECTION 5. Based upon the findings set forth in Sections 1 through 4 of this resolution, the Planning Commission of the City of Downey hereby adopts a Mitigated Negative Declaration and approves the Site Plan Review and Conditional Use Permit (PLN -14- 00239), subject to conditions of approval attached hereto as Exhibit A, which are necessary to preserve the health, safety and general welfare of the community and enable the Planning Commission to make the findings set forth in the previous sections.
