Resolution No. 2022-XXX Page 2 of 8 G. On August 22, 2022 the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing on CUP No. 2022-13. H. The Planning Commission determines that the following findings, which must be established in order to grant this Conditional Use Permit pursuant to SAMC Section 41-638, have been established for Conditional Use Permit No. 2022-13 to allow a new church within the P zoning district: 1. That the proposed use will provide a service or facility which will contribute to the general well-being of the neighborhood or the community. The proposed use will contribute to the general well-being of the community by establishing a new church in the City. The church will provide a place for fellowship, gathering, and mentorship, tutoring, financial counseling, after-school programs, and spiritual support. Additionally, the proposed church will occupy a previously vacant building. Therefore, in re-occupying the space additional activity will be brought to the area and promote the welfare of the surrounding business community. 2. That the proposed use under the circumstances of the particular case will not be detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity. The proposed church at this location would not be detrimental to persons residing or working in the area as the subject site is located within a professional office and light industrial area and not immediately adjacent to residential uses. The nearest residential property is 0.26 miles (1,385 feet) from the subject site. In addition, the primary use of the church during weekends and weeknights will not conflict with surrounding professional office and light industrial uses, which typically operate weekdays during the day. Lastly, a comprehensive analysis of the shared parking on among the various buildings and properties on the block indicates a surplus of 29 parking spaces would remain after the church use is accounted. 3. That the proposed use will not adversely affect the present economic stability or future economic development of properties surrounding the area. The proposed church would be compatible with the surrounding area and will not adversely affect the economic viability in the area. The proposed use would occupy a space that has been vacant and thus increase the activity in this 8/22/2022 Planning Commission 1 – 8
