- STAFF REPORT CUP -25
3.0 ' SUMMARY OF ISSUES :
Major issues of concern regarding Conditional Use Permit No. 79--25
are as follows:
1) The adequacy of existing parking to accommodate the proposed use.
2) The compatibility of the proposed use wit) :surrounding land uses.
4. 0 ENVIRONMENTAL STATUS :
The proposed use is within can existing industrial complex. with the
only new construction being min^r interior alterations ; therefore ,
pursuant to Section 15101 of the State EIR Guidelines, the project
is categorically exempt.
5. 0 SURROUNDING LAND USE, ZONING, AND GENERAL PUN DESIGNATION:
Properties surrounding the subject site are zoned M-1, Light Manufacturing
and are designated on the General Plan as General Industrial. The
properties to the north and south are vacant, and the properties to the
east and west are developed l.ighc industrial.
6. 0 ANALYSIS :
The proposed karate studio will utilize 1381 square feet of space in
an existing industrial building which is one of nineteen existing
buildings in a 243 , 962 square foot industrial complex. The industrial
complex has a total of 394 parking spaces . Buildings fronting on
Gothard Street were originally approved with a commercial parking ratio
of one space for each 200 square feet of gross floor area . Because of
this , staff feels that limited commercial activity on the site will
not create any noticeable parking problems in the industrial complex.
I
The karate studio should be compatible with adjacent industrial uses �
because of the limited weekly nighttime hours and Saturday hours .
Instruction will be offered for members only between the hours of
4 :00 p.m. and 8 : 00 p.m. Monday through Friday, and from 1: 00 p.m. to
4 :00 p.m. on Saturday. The studio will be closed on Sunday.. The pro-
posed use will not exhibit the level of activity in terms of adver-
tising and traffic: volume as would many retail uses . The City has
previously approved similar athletic instructional facilities located
within industrial complexes and has not experienced any appreciable
problems.
7.0 RECOMMENDATION:
The Staff recommends approval of Conditional Use Permit No. 79-25
based on the following findings and subject to the following
suggested conditions :
,STAFF .:REPORT CU* . -25 ,,..
FINDINGS:
1) The subject industrial complex has adequate parking to accommodate
the .'proposed use,
2) The proposed karate studio is generally compatible with the
surrounding land uses.
•, SUGGESTED CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL:
1) The site plan received and dated September 12, 1979 shall be
the approved layout.
2) Hours of operation shall be limited to those hours stated in
Section 2 . 0 of this Staff Report,
j
3) The planning C'ommision reserves the right to rescind this
Conditional Use Permit approval in the event of any violation
of the terms of this approval or violation of the applicable
zoning laws; any such decision shall be preceded by notice to
the applicant, a public hearing , and shall be based upon specific
findings .

SUBJECT: APPEAL OF CONDITIONAL USE PER%1IT NO. 79-25 ( ITEM D--2A)
It has been brought to our attention that a proposed
karate school in an Ml area will not benefit the City
fiscally because its only significant revenue is derived
from business license fees . The business license fee for
a karate school is $37 . 50 annually . L::ke any industrial
use permitted in the MI district, however, the karate
school would also generate property tax and utility tax
revenues . The only potential substantive difference
between the karate school and industrial uses is in i
the area of sales taxes . The karate school would produce i
none wi t-h the exception of these on the indi reCt purchases
made by the employees in the City . Depending upon the- type
of business , industrial uses could generate no retail. sales
or substantial retail sales . The way the 1•11 zoning ordina^we
is presently structured to permit a wide range of uses ,
there is no guarantee that alternative industrial uses ;till
he signifivantly superior to the karate school from a
fiscal standpoint .

- DISCUSSION:
On November 6 , 1979, the Planning Commission reviewed a petition '
to establish a karate studio on the west side of Gothard Street
and approximately 900 ft� south of the cen;:erline of Heil Avenue.
At.=that time, the applicant requested the Planning Commission to
also consider the use of the building for daytime instruction.
On uiotf on. by Kenefick and second -by Winehelle the Planning Commission,
voted t6 'd6ntinue Conditional Use Permit No. 79--25 until November
201 , 1979 to give staff time to analyze the availability of parking
-for the 'proposed daytima. use of the building for karate instruction.
Pa' a Three f
S 1
At , the November 20, 1979 Planning Commission. meetiiig, the
Corattission once again was asked to review .a petition to establish
a karate studio in an existing Industrial building .
It. was determined by Staff that parking for the proposed use during
daytime hours or night-time hours would not create problems for the
industrial complex because parking was originally approved at the
higher commercial. parking ratio. The commercial parking ratio is
one parking space for each 200 square feet of gross floor area for
industrial. . Therefore, the 11381 square foot building is required
to have seven (7) on site parkins; spaces. To insure that a minirrimn
'of parking problems would occur at the site, the Planning Commission
imposed 3 fifteen minute separation between classes to allow students
time to leave the parking lot and make room for the next class . The
Planning Commission also conditioned the size of the classes to a
maximum of six (6) students per daytime session (6 : 00 A.M. to 4 :00 P.M. )
and fifteen sutdents per evening session (4 : 00 P.M. to 10 :00 P.M. ) .
The Department of Development Services has found that no a,,Qreciable
land use problems have oc;ciirred since the Planning Commission started
approving commercial recreation schools (i .e. , karate studios,
ski schools , gymnastic schools and tennis schools) in the industrial
districts . By conditioning the hours of operation, amo_tnt of parking
and number of students per class , Staff feels that land use problems
are kept to a minimum.
ENVIRONN:ENTAL INFORMATION:
The proposed use is within an existing industrial complex with the
only new construction being minor inter=.or alterations ; therefore ,
pursuant to Section 15101 of the State EIR Guidelines , the project
is categorically exempt.
ALTERNATIVE ACTION:
Reverse the Planning Commission' s action and deny approval of {
Conditional Use Permit No. 79-25 .

RE : APPEAL TO PLANNING CO,MISSION APPROVAL OP
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 79-25
I hereby appeal approval of Conditional use Permit No. 79-25
City Council for the following reasons :
1 . I do not feel this is a proper use for M-1 district , but is
more appropriate for commercial use .
2 . Parking and traffic problems will be generated .
3 . Policing the area will present a problem .
4 . $45 per year is all the revenue the City will realize .
5 . The only apparent reason he is putting this use in an M-1 area
is that it : s cheaper than commercial , and I feel we have an
over Abundance f commercial property in the City now.

DATE: November 20 , 1979
SUBJECT: CONDITIONAL. USE PERMIT NO. 79--25
A REQUEST TO ESTABLISH AND OPERATE A KARATE
STUDIO IN AN EXISTING INDUSTRIAL BUILDING
At the November 61 1979 Planning Commission meeting, the applicant
for the proposed karate studio requested the Planning Commission to
consider approval of daytime instruction as well as evening instruc-
tion . At that time , Staff was requested to analyze this possibility
and submit findings and recommendations .
As stated in the previous Staff Report, the required parking for
industrial buildings facing Gothard Street was originally approved
with a commercial parking ratio of one parking space for. each 200
square feet of gross floor area. A- this ratio, the 1381 square
foot industrial suite would be required to have seven (7) assigned
parking spaces . Because of this, Staff feels that (6) students
per session during the day would not be an unreasonable request.
The applicant has also stated that many students will be dropped
off after school by their parents and will not utilize any on site
parking spaces .
After reviewing the applicant' s request for daytime use of the
building for karate instruction , it is our recommendation that the
Planning Commission approve the request with the following con-
ditions :
CONDITIONS :
1) The site plan receiv ?d and dated September 12 , 1979 shall be
the approved layout .
2) Classes shall be limited to six ( 6) students per session during
daytime hours (8 : 00 A.M. to 4 : 00 and 15 students per
session during evening hours ( 4 : 00 P.M. to 10 : 00 P .M. )
3) A fifteen ( 15) minute separation between classes shall be
required to allow students time to leave the parking lot and
make room for the next class .
4) The Planning Commission reserves the right to resind this
Conditional Use Permit approval in the event of any violation
of the applicable zoning laws; any such decision shall be
preceded by notice to the applicant, a public hearing, and shall
be based upon specific findings .
