091 RESOLUTION NO. 87- 15 Page five staff supervision to insure successful social integration into the surrounding neighborhood; and initial approval period of six (6) months for the use; and construction of a six (6) foot high block wall along the northerly property line, will serve to mitigate any adverse impacts such use could pose to surrounding properties. (iii) The design of the facility itself, in which the dining hall and chapel areas will be oriented towards an interior patio or courtyard area, will minimize the possibility of the center's lodgers congregating outside of the facility. (iv) That the rescue center itself will be a modern, one-story, attractively designed structure, which will be attractively landscaped, which will significantly upgrade the neighborhood as compared to the types of structures and uses found in the immediate vicinity. (d) The granting of the Variance will not adversely affect the general plan of the City, as follows: (i) The subject site is designated as Mixed Use Corridor on the Land Use Element of the General Plan. Two of the primary purposes of properties placed into such a category are: to provide important neighborhood facilities and services including shopping, recreation, cultural and entertainment activ- ities, employment and education; and to provide support facilities and services for the Industrial Districts including office and retail, restaurants, and various other services. Approval of this project is in conformance with these standards. (ii) According to the Urban Design Element of the General Plan, each Multi-Use Corridor is located in an area of significant development potential and anticipates the creation of an innovative and stimulating mix of land uses designed to encourage urban development of the highest design and functional standards. The location and design of the proposed rescue center building is in conformance with this standard. (iii) One of the goals of the Public Facili- ties Element of the General Plan is to provide sufficient public, cultural, recreational, educational, social service and related facilities to meet the community's needs. Approval of this pro- ject would further achieve this goal. 3. For the reasons set forth in the Negative Declara- tion prepared for this project, this Council reaffirms its December 15, 1980 and January 5, 1981 approvals of said Negative Declaration and its finding that the project will not have a significant effect on the environment.
