A service area ,of .3100 square feet with eight service bays complete the balance of the gross floor area of the building. ANALYSIS Approximately a year ago the City of Arcadia undertook a study af conditional uses which resulted in the adoption of a set of new regulations March 16, 1965. It included a new title regulating drive-in businesses which applies to the subject application. This title established the requirements to be met before a conditional use permit could be granted. In analyzing the subject property and its location, the Staff is of the opinion that it can be harmoniously adjusted to the surrounding uses and the community if the above mentioned regulations are generally applied. The location on Baldwin Avenue, a major street, with an alley to the rear, affords ease of ingress and egress to the site, A wall between the church and the subject property will give protection to that use. Retail and storage floor areas require a total of 23 parking spaces. 17 spaces are indicated on the plan with 8 additional spaces in a roofed area, or a total of 25 spaces. This is considered adequate ~(\ - 1 - , , 'oJ '- . . . . . C.U.P.67-1 February 14, 1907 Page Two to meet the needs of this facility. Zone C-2 regulations require a rear yard of 10 feet.
