WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of La Quinta,

located at 47120 Dune Palms Road, near the southeast corner of Dune Palms Road
and Highway 1 1 1 and more particularly described as:
PARCEL 2 OF PARCEL MAP 28422
WHEREAS, said Site Development Permit application has complied with
the requirements of "The Rules to Implement the California Environmental Quality
Act of 1970" as amended (Resolution 83-63), in that the Community Development
Director has determined that the proposed Conditional Use Permit is exempt from
CEQA review under Guidelines Section 15301 (Leasing of Existing Private
Facilities); and,
WHEREAS, at said Public Hearing, upon hearing and considering all
testimony and arguments of all interested persons desiring to be heard, the
Planning Commission did make the following mandatory findings to justify approval
of said Conditional Use Permit:
1. The proposed use is consistent with the land use designation of Mixed/Regional
Commercial. The City's General Plan Policies relating to Mixed/Regional
Commercial encourage provision of a wide range of commercial opportunities
and support services.
2. The proposed use is consistent with the provisions of the La Quinta Zoning
Code. Use of the space as a cosmetology school will have similar characteristics
and impacts as beauty salons, barber shops, professional offices, and like uses
which are permitted by right under the M/RC zoning district.
3. Processing of this Conditional Use Permit for the proposed use is in compliance
with the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act. The La Quinta
Community Development Department has determined that the request is exempt
from CEQA under Guideline Section 15301 (Leasing of Existing Private
Facilities). As a result, no environmental review is required.
4. Approval of this proposed use will not be a detriment to the public health,
safety and general welfare, nor shall it be injurious or incompatible with other
properties or uses in the vicinity. Use of the space as a cosmetology school will
have similar characteristics and impacts as beauty salons, barber shops,
professional offices, and like uses which are permitted by right under the M/RC
zoning district.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of the
City of La Quinta, California, as follows:
1 . That the above recitations are true and constitute the findings of the Planning
