^!M Resolution 97-07
1. The proposed Conditional Use Permit land uses are deemed as consistent with
the La Quinta General Plan, as development of the uses as conditioned will
further the implementation of Policies 2-3.1.1 and 2-3.2.1, which essentially
call for uses drawing from a regional trade
area, in that the proposed automotive uses cater to a regional market, and are
further identified as appropriate uses with approval of a Conditional Use Permit.
2. The proposed Conditional Use Permit land uses are consistent with the Zoning
Code, in that these uses have been identified as permitted, subject to conditions
on operation of those uses being applied. Approval of the Conditional Use
Permit application will assure this through regulation of these uses as dictated
by the Zoning Code.
3. The requirements of CEQA have been complied with, in that an Initial Study
was prepared EA 96-328), which concluded that no significant impacts from
implementation of the Specific Plan will occur, with incorporation of mitigation
as identified in the Environmental Assessment. The applicant has agreed to
implementing the necessary mitigation prior to site development activities and
is in concurrence with project conditions relating to this.
4. Approval of this Conditional Use Permit will not be detrimental to the public
health, safety or general welfare or incompatible with surrounding properties.
The area in the vicinity is designated and zoned for commercial use, and the site
is located at the intersection of two arterial roadways, which commonly attracts
automotive-based commercial uses. The conditional uses proposed are a
consistent representation of the uses which would be proposed for surrounding
sites as long as the current General Plan land use and zoning designations are
applicable.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of
La Quinta, California as follows:
1. That the recitations are true and correct and constitute the findings of the City
Council regarding this Conditional Use Permit application.
2. That it does hereby grant approval of Conditional Use Permit 96-029, for the
reasons set forth in this Resolution and subject to approval conditions, attached
hereto, as Exhibit A" and on file in the Community Development Department.
