May 11, 1976 TO: PLANNING COMMISSION FROM: PLANNING DEPARTMENT SUBJECT: C.U.P. 76-9 l13~ ST. JOSEPH STREET APPLICATION This application was filed on April 23, 1976 by Vernon Crowder, dba Arcadia Brake Shop, and requests a conditional use permit for an automobile repair garage at l13~ St. Joseph Street. . LAND USE AND ZONING The subject site is zoned M-l and developed with M-H Products Co. and the Arcadia Brake Shop. Properties to the north, south, east and west are zoned M~l and developed with mixed commercial, industrial and residential uses. (See attached Land Use and Zoning Map.) HISTORY The Arcadia Brake Shop was originally located at 4Ql North First Avenue. In February 1976, Mr. Crowder moved his business to ll3~ East St. Joseph without ~btaining a conditional use permit for an automotive garage. PROPOSAL AND ANALYSIS The applicant is operating the repair shop to the rear of the building at ll3 St. Joseph Street. The subject site contains 8,000 square feet. The building con- tains 3,550 square feet; 1,050 square feet is comprised of office space and the remaining 2,500 square feet is shop area which is shared by the fork lift company and the Arcadia Brake Shop. The garage area contains approximately 700+ square feet. ... Mr. Crowder is the only employee of the brake shop. . . . C.U.P. 76-9 2 Four marked parking spaces are located in the front and there are five unmarked spaces in the rear. There is adequate space for only four parking stalls to the rear of the building. The applicant is operating the garage in the area designated on the plan. Vehicles which are not being worked on are parked in the rear yard. Access to the shop is from St. Joseph Street or from the alley. A five-foot high.wall exists along the easterly and westerly property lines and a chain link, fence and gate runs along the northerly property line adjacent to the alley. The site has no designated loading space nor is a trash enclosure located on the site. Trash is stored inside the building in metal trash containers. The Planning Department ha's received a written memo from the Fire Department i~dicating there is no problem with inside trash containers as long as they are metal containers with lids. . The Planning Department does not believe it is necessary that there be a designated loading space as there is adequate rear yard area to allow for off-street and off-alley loading. The Code allows for property outs,ide a building to be used for parking and storage provided that all such storage activities are screened from view from adjoining properties and public rights-of-way. Pursuant to the provision of the California Environmental Quality Act, the Planning Department reviewed the proposed application and determined that the proposal would not have a significant effect on the environment. A Negative Declaration has been prepared and filed ~or this project. The Planning Commission in, its approval or denial of the proposed conditional use permit must make the determination that the proposed project would or would not have a substantial adverse impact on the environment. .RECOMMENDATION . The Planning Department believes that this use would be compatible with the existing area and, therefore, recommends approval of C. U.P. 76-9 subject to the following conditions: 1. That all repair work shall be done inside the building. 2. That the parking area in the rear be striped as per . . . . . C.U.P. 76-9 3 Section 9266.4.8 and wheel stops be provided where these parking spaces abut walls. 3. That a modification be granted to allow eight parking spaces in lieu of nine spaces required. 4. That the parking area fronting on the alley be screened from view and that the screening be subject to the approval of the Planning Department, S. All signs shall conform to Code. 6. The property shall be improved and maintained in substan- tial compliance wi.th the plans on file in the subject case and with all applicable regulations of the Code.
