Appeal Application No. 2025-02 — Forty Martyrs Armenian Church Middle School (5311 W. McFadden Avenue) operate during the same business hours, stagger recess times for students to mitigate noise concerns, and stagger pick-up and drop-off times to mitigate potential traffic impacts on McFadden Avenue and Euclid Street. 3. Appellant Request: Multi-institutional Corridor Conditions and Impacts Analysis of Issue: The project property currently operates as an integrated church and school campus since 1982. Additionally, the project property maintains a shared access and parking agreement with the property located at 5305 W. McFadden Avenue to mitigate potential traffic impacts along McFadden Avenue. The project site also has an emergency access agreement with the property located at 5321 W. McFadden Avenue. However, the access agreement is only used for emergencies. The sites do not shared traffic circulation during regular business operations. Pedestrian and vehicle access for all sites along McFadden Avenue, including 5311, 5315, 5305, and 5321 W. McFadden Avenue is limited to all the driveways and sidewalks located along McFadden Avenue. No vehicles nor pedestrians can access the previously mentioned addresses from Tampion Avenue. Moreover, as stated in the staff report, the addition of the new school building is only anticipated to increase student enrollment by approximately 15 students. The current operations of the school and the church will remain the same. As demonstrated by the focused traffic analysis and the parking management plan, the addition to the school will not introduce cumulative impacts to the surrounding residential land uses. 4. Appellant Request: Improper Use of CUP Modification Process Analysis of Issue: The appellant claims that the City's decision to process the application as a modification rather than a new application limited the review of the proposed project. However, the process for new conditional use permit applications and modifications to existing entitlements are treated equally and are required to establish the findings in Section 41-638 of the SAMC. Additionally, as stated on recital number E on the first page of the resolution for the Planning Commission Exhibit 6 — Response to Appeal Comments ity ouncil 18 — 161 2/3/2026
