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".

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.

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.
