Resolution No. 2022-XXX Page 2 of 10 The proposed use will contribute to the general well-being of the community by providing a use that satisfies a growing demand for warehousing and distribution activities in the region, following the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic. The site plan and building have been designed to minimize impacts on surrounding properties and to enhance the surrounding community with a building and site that will provide elevated architecture, landscaping, site, and right-of- way improvements. 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 warehouse and distribution facility 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, schools, or parks. The nearest residential property is 0.43 miles (2,290 feet) due north from the subject site, across the Costa Mesa (SR-55) Freeway. In addition, the project site is located within an area that is not near sensitive land uses such as residential neighborhoods, schools, or parks. Moreover, access to the SR-55 Freeway is provided at the Dyer Road interchange, by way of Garry Avenue and Pullman Street, a driving distance of less than 0.50 miles. Moreover, the loading docks have been positioned at the south of the building in order to minimize noise and aesthetic impacts onto surrounding properties. Following public comments provided during the August 22, 2022 regular Planning Commission meeting, the applicant modified the site plan to include height-restriction bars that will prohibit truck traffic on the eastern portion of the site, thereby minimizing impacts to the adjacent properties. 3. That the proposed use will not adversely affect the present economic stability or future economic development of properties surrounding the area. The proposed facility would be compatible with the surrounding area and will not adversely affect the economic viability in the area. The proposed use would redevelop a site containing aging office buildings with a modern warehousing and distribution facility that has been designed to minimize impacts onto surrounding land uses and to conform to all applicable development standards of the M1 zoning district.
