The main motion made by MacAllister, seconded by Bannister, to overrule the
Planning Commission, grant the appeal and approve Zone Change 87-2, approve
Conditional Use Permit 87-54 with Special Permit and approve Conditional
Exception 87-97 subject to findings of fact with conditions of approval out-
lined in Exhibit "A" to the RCA dated May 15, 1989 and after reading by title,
approve introduction of Ordinance No. 2999, with findings and conditions as
follows:
Findings for Aaaroval - Zone Change No._87-2:
1. The, proposed zone change from CF-E(R1) (Community Facilities -Education
with base zone of Low Density Residential) to C4-MS (Highway Commer-
cial -Multi -Story ) is consistent with the General Plan Land Use
designation of Mixed Use Development.
2. The proposed zone change from CF-E(R1) (Community Facilities -Education
with base zone of Low Density Residential) to C4-MS (Highway Commer-
cial -Multi -Story ) is compatible with surrounding land uses and serves as
a logical extension of the multi -story commercial development at One
Pacific Plaza.
Findings for Approval - Conditional Use Permit No. 87-54:
1. The location, site layout, and design of the proposed office building and
parking structure properly adapts the proposed structures to streets,
driveways, and other adjacent structures and uses in a harmonious manner.
2. The proposed use is a logical extension of the mixed use developments to
the east, including Old World, and One Pacific Plaza.
3. . Based on the applicant's traffic study, the access to and parking for the
proposed office and parking structure does not create an undue traffic
problem. The project substantially conforms with the recently adopted
standards for parking structures.
4. The granting of Conditional Use Permit No. 87-54 for an office building
and parking structure will adversely affect the General Plan of the City
of Huntington Beach.
Findings for Approval - Special Permit:
1. The requested special permit to allow a single access point to a 580
space parking structure promotes an effective circulation pattern and
.parking layout, pursuant to a parking study conducted by a traffic
engineer.
12
Page 10 - Council/Agency Minutes - 5/15/89
2. The requested special permit will not be detrimental to the general
health, welfare, safety and convenience, nor detrimental or injurious to
the value of property or improvements of the neighborhood or of the City
in general, and will not adversely affect circulation on the site or
adjacent streets.
Findings for Approval - Conditional Exception (Variance) No. 87-96:
1. There are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions appli-
cable to the land, buildings or premises involved that do not apply gen-
erally to other property or uses in the district. The site is located
adjacent to the Southern California Edison and Railroad rights -of -way and
is of unusual size and shape.
The granting of a conditional exception for reduced setbacks is necessary
in order to preserve the enjoyment of one or more substantial property
rights. Enforcement of all required setbacks would render the parcel
unbuildable for its intended uses under the existing Mixed Use General
Plan designation.
3. The granting of Conditional Exception (Variance) No. 87-96 for reduced
setbacks will not be materially detrimental to the public health; safety
and welfare, or injurious to the conforming property or improvements in
the area, because the site is buffered by the Southern California Edison
and Railroad easements to the east, and by arterial streets to the south
and west.
4. The granting of the conditional exception (variance) for reduced setbacks
will not adversely affect the General Plan of the City of Huntington
Beach.
Conditions of Approval for Zone Change No. 87-2 - Conditional Use Permit
No. 87-54 - with Special Permit - Conditional Exception (Variance) No. 87-96:
