2. Will occur within the City limits, The Project Site is less than (5) acres and
is substantially surrounded by urban uses.
3. The Project Site has no value as habitat for endangered, rare or
threatened species.
4. Approval of the Project will not result in any significant effects relating to
traffic, noise, air quality or water quality.
5. The Project Site can be adequately served by all required utilities and
public services.
SECTION 3. That in accordance with State Planning and Zoning Law and the
Lake Elsinore Municipal Code, the Planning Commission makes the following findings
for approval of CUP No. 2009 -11:
1. The proposed use, on its own merits and within the context of its
setting, is in accord with the objectives of the General Plan and the purpose of
the planning district in which the site is located.
Issuance of this Conditional Use Permit will facilitate the creation of a well
balanced and functional mix of residential, commercial, industrial, open space,
recreational and institutional land uses. The proposed land use conforms to the
objectives of the General Plan and the planning districts in which the site is
located.
2. The proposed use will not be detrimental to the general health,
safety, comfort, or general welfare of persons residing or working within the
neighborhood of the proposed use or the City, or injurious to property or
improvements in the neighborhood or the City.
All applicable City departments and agencies have been afforded an opportunity
to review the use permit and recommend conditions of approval as set forth in
the conditions of approval attached to the staff report for this CUP. Conditions
have been applied relating to the installation and maintenance of landscaping,
walls, signs, regulation of points of vehicular ingress and egress and control of
potential nuisances, so as to eliminate any negative impacts to the general
health, safety, comfort, or general welfare of the surrounding commercial
development and the City.
3. The site for the intended use is adequate in size and shape to
accommodate the use, and for all the yards, setbacks, walls or fences,
landscaping, buffers and other features required by Title 17 of the Lake Elsinore
Municipal Code.
The proposed pharmacy drive -up window has been designed in consideration of
the size and shape of the property, thereby strengthening and enhancing the
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2010 -12
PAGE 3OF5
immediate commercial area. Further, the Project will compliment the quality of
existing development and will create a visually pleasing, non - detractive
relationship between the proposed and existing projects, in that the facility design
has been reviewed to ensure adequate provision of screening from the adjacent
properties.
4. The site for the proposed use relates to streets and highways with
proper design both as to width and type of pavement to carry the type and
quantity of traffic generated by the subject use.
The proposed pharmacy drive -up window facility has been reviewed in relation to
the width and type of pavement needed to carry the type and quantity of traffic
and circulation generated. The City has adequately evaluated the potential
impacts associated with the proposed facility prior to its approval and has
conditioned the project to be served by roads of adequate capacity and design
standards to provide reasonable access by car and truck.
5. In approving the subject use, there will be no adverse affect on
abutting property or the permitted and normal use thereof.
The CUP has been thoroughly reviewed and conditioned by all applicable City
departments and affected outside agencies thereby eliminating the potential for
any adverse effects.
6. Adequate conditions and safeguards pursuant to Lake Elsinore
Municipal Code Section 17.168.050 have been incorporated into the approval of
the Conditional Use Permit to insure that the use continues in a manner
envisioned by these findings for the term of the use.
Pursuant to Lake Elsinore Municipal Code Section 17.168.050, the proposed
pharmacy drive -up window has been scheduled for consideration and approval of
the Planning Commission at the regularly scheduled meeting on April 6, 2010.
SECTION 4. Based upon the evidence presented, the above findings, and the
attached conditions of approval, the Planning Commission hereby approves Conditional
Use Permit No. 2009 -11.
SECTION 5. This Resolution shall take effect from and after the date of its
passage and adoption.
PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED at a regular meeting of the Planning
Commission of the City of Lake Elsinore, California, this 6th day of April, 2010.
