with the use and development requirements of the zoning ordinance ;
The site is zoned S.P.A. 8, Specific Plan Area-Commercial, and project and proposed use
complies with the development standards contained therein (Section 9.68-6). Further, the
project is consistent with the guidelines for Planning Commission approval to exceed the
first tier height limit of25-feet, to a maximum of 35 feet, as set forth in Section 9.68-
7(b)2. The site is thus suitable for the type and intensity of the proposed development;
The project exhibits the appropriate scale, and a quality of design and construction
materials, which will make it compatible with surrounding commercial development
The proposed automobile repair business is an appropriate use for the Pacific Coast
Highway commercial corridor and is compatible with surrounding commercial and
residential uses;
Compliance with the conditions of approval will mitigate any negative impact resulting
from the issuance of the precise development plan
The Planning Commission concurs with the Staff Environmental Review Committee's
recommendation, based on their environmental assessment/initial study, that this
