Conditional Use Permit No. 2012-24 November 13, 2012 Page 4 Conditional Use Permits are governed by Section 41-638 of the SAMC. Conditional use permits may be granted when it can be shown that the following can be established: • That the proposed use will provide a service or facility which will contribute to the general well being of the neighborhood or community. • That the proposed use will not, under the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity. • That the proposed use will not adversely affect the present economic stability or future economic development of properties surrounding the area. • That the proposed use will comply with the regulations and conditions specified in Chapter 41 for such use. • That the proposed use will not adversely affect the General Plan of the city or any specific plan applicable to the area of the proposed use. If these findings can be made, then it is appropriate to grant the conditional use permit. Conversely, the inability to make these findings would result in a denial. Using this information staff has prepared the following analysis, which, in turn forms the basis for the recommendation contained in this report. In analyzing the conditional use permit request staff believes that the following findings of fact warrant approval of the conditional use permit. • The project will provide a service or facility which will contribute to the community. The facility is a commercial recreational facility that will provide additional recreational opportunities to residents and visitors of the City. Further, the business will provide additional employment opportunities for residents that live in the City. The swim school will not be detrimental to persons residing or working in the area as the facility is located within an area of the City that is predominantly industrial in nature. Further, improvements will be made to the site that will bring the site into compliance with applicable disability act standards. Finally, conditions have been placed on the project that will mitigate any negative or adverse impacts created by the use that could otherwise affect the health, safety, or general welfare of the surrounding businesses. • The proposed use will not adversely affect the economic stability of the area but will instead identify the site as a viable site to conduct business. The tenant space was previously vacant and is proposed to be occupied by a use that is consistent with the zoning for the property. The reuse of the site, in conjunction with the improvements that will be made to the site, will enhance the economic viability of the area. 31A-6
