A RESOLUTION APPROVING A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT TO ALLOW A MINI-WAREHOUSE STORAGE PROJECT ON 15.45 ACRES FOR PROPERTY GENERALLY LOCATED ON THE WEST SIDE OF CALLOWAY DRIVE BETWEEN MEACHAM ROAD AND ROSEDALE HIGHWAY (CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT CASE NO. P97-0052). WHEREAS, Marino Associates for Calloway Capital Associates, has filed a written application to allow a mini-warehouse storage project containing 215,000 square feet of storage space in 31 single story structures, and a two-story, 2,370 square foot office/caretaker's residence structure on 15.45 acres, for that site generally located on the west side of Calloway Drive between Meacham Road and Rosedale Highway; and WHEREAS, the mini-warehouse storage project is a conditionally permitted use in the Planned Commercial Development zone; and WHEREAS, Section 17.54.020 A. 4 of the Bakersfield Municipal Code allows the concurrent approval of a Planned Commercial Development zoning district and a conditional use permit when the proposed use is conditionally permitted within the requested Planned Commercial Development zone; and WHEREAS, for the above-described amendment, an Initial Study was conducted, and it was determined that the proposed project would not have a significant effect on the environment, and a Negative Declaration with mitigations was prepared; and WHEREAS, the law and regulations relating to the preparation and adoption of Negative Declarations as set forth in CEQA and City of Bakersfield's CEQA Implementation Procedures have been duly followed by city staff and the Planning Commission; and WHEREAS, by Resolution No. 22-97 on March 20, 1997, the Planning Commission recommended approval of this Conditional Use Permit subject to conditions of approval listed in Exhibit "A" and this Council has fully considered the findings made by the Planning Commission as set forth in that resolution; and WHEREAS, the Council of the City of Bakersfield, in accordance with the provisions of Section 55355 of the Government Code, conducted and held a public hearing on WEDNESDAY, MAY 7, 1997, on the above described proposed amendment to the Land Use Element of the Metropolitan Bakersfield 2010 General Plan, notice of time and place of the hearing having been given at least ten (10) calendar days before the hearing by publication in the Bakersfield Califomian, a local newspaper of general circulation; and WHEREAS, the Council has considered and hereby makes the following findings: 1. All required public notices have been given. 2. The provisions of CEQA and the City of Bakersfield CEQA Implementation Procedures have been followed. 3. The proposed use is essential or desirable to the public welfare. 4. The proposed use is in harmony with the goals, objectives and policies of the Metropolitan Bakersfield 2010 General Plan. 5. As conditioned, the mini-warehouse storage facility proposal is consistent with the intent and purpose of the City of Bakersfield's Zoning Ordinance. 6. As conditioned, the mini-warehouse storage facility proposal is compatible with existing and planned land uses in the vicinity. 7. Based on the absence of evidence in the record as required by Section 21082.2 of the State of California Public Resources Code (CEQA) for the purpose of documenting significant effects, it is the conclusion of the Lead Agency that this project will result in impacts that fall below the threshold of significance with regard to wildlife resources and, therefore, must be granted a "de minimis" exemption in accordance with Section 711 of the State of California Fish and Game Code. Additionally, the assumption of adverse effect is rebutted by the above-referenced absence of evidence in the record and the Lead Agency's decision to prepare a Negative Declaration for this project. NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY FOUND AND RESOLVED AS FOLLOWS: 1. The above recitals, incorporated herein, are true and correct. 2. The Negative Declaration is hereby approved. 3. As to the Conditional Use Permit for the mini-warehouse storage facility for that site shown on map marked Exhibit "B," attached hereto and incorporated as though fully set forth, for property generally located on the west side of Calloway Drive between Meacham Road and Rosedale Highway, the City Council hereby approves such conditional use permit subject to the conditions of approval shown on Exhibit "A". ......... O00 ......... I HEREBY CERTIFY that the foregoing Resolution was passed and adopted by the Council of the City of Bakersfield at a regular meeting thereof held on I&~.Y ? 1997 , by the following vote: AYES: COUNCILMEMBER OeMOND, CARSON, SMITH, McDERMOTI~, ROWLES, SULLIVAN, SALVAGGIO NOES: COUNCtLMEME~ER ~ ABSTAIN: COUNCILMEMBER [/~,{~,.~ ABSEN'E COUNCILMEMBER V~')-y,....~.~ CITY CLERK and E_x_Offic~ Clerk of the Council of the City of Bakersfield APPROVED MAY ? 1997 BOB PRICE MAYOR of the City of Bakersfield APPROVED as to form: JUDY SKOUSEN CITY A'I-FORN EY MJM:pjt res\rcO052-cc April 25, 1997 Exhibit "A" Conditions of Approval/Mitigation Measures GPA, IZCICUP P97-0052 Planned Commercial Development Plannin~l Department Site development shall be substantially as shown on Attachments "P1, P2, P3 and P4." VVhere conditions of approval and site plans are different the conditions of approval shall prevail. Prior to the City Council public hearing, site plans shall be amended to show "site plan review committee" requirements, and where applicable, other conditions of approval. The signs as shown on the site plan are hereby approved by the City Council. The pylon sign may have a height of 23 feet and an area not to exceed 160 square feet, and shall be set back no less than 15 feet from the ultimate right-of-way line of Calloway Drive. Any other sign must be approved pursuant to Section 17.54.100 of the Planned Commercial Development zone of the Municipal Code. The exterior building walls located at or along the property lines shall be of two hour fire resistive construction. The walls connecting these buildings shall be of a height equal to the exterior building walls (no less than eight and one half feet) and shall also be of two hour fire resistive construction. Exterior walls meeting the foregoing construction and height requirements shall be completed along the entire property line perimeter of the respective development phase, prior to occupancy approval for that phase. The roofs of all storage buildings located adjacent to property lines shall slope towards the interior of the mini-warehouse storage complex, away from the abutting residential properties. Fencing adjacent to the retention basin need not be 8 feet high, but shall conform to city standards. Future project development within "Phase 3" as shown on Attachment "PI" is NOT A PART of this approval, and shall require approval of a subsequent Planned Commercial Development and Conditional Use Permit application. Prior to submittal of an application for final site plan review, a qualified archaeologist shall complete an archaeological study on all previously unimpacted portions of the site, in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act. All measures recommended by such study shall be completed prior to recordation of the final site plan approval. Proof of such compliance shall be submitted to the Development Services Department and to the Southern San Joaquin Valley Information Center. The configuration and layout of the project entryway, office/residence and storage buildings, and proposed future development Phase 3 within the northeasterly "panhandle" portion of the Planned Commercial Development may, at the applicant's option, be juxtaposed or reversed on the final development plans required to be submitted pursuant to Section 17.54.050 of the City of Bakersfield Municipal Code. Should the applicant exercise this option for redesign, the final development plans incorporating such revisions shall be considered consistent with the intent and design parameters of this approval. Public Works: The developer shall be required to contribute to the Phase II, Regional Traffic Impact Fee (RTIF), based upon the actual developed uses per the adopted fee schedule. These fees have been established by Council as minimum mitigation for build out of the General Plan. The general commercial portion (corresponding to the adjacent C-2 zoning request) of the GPA consists of no changes to the shopping center site and the mitigation measures, based on the October, 1994, traffic study prepared by Crenshaw Traffic Engineers, are still appropriate. Exhibit "A" GPNZC/GPA P97-0052 Page 2 8. Per the traffic analysis by Ronald F. Ruettgers Civil Engineer, dated February 7, 1997, the mini- storage portion of the project generates a change in peak hour trips below thresholds which would warrant a traffic study impact study, and therefore, no added mitigation is recommended.
