CUP No. 2015 -01 Variance Nos. 2015 -01 & 2015 -02 March 5, 2015 Page 5 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 this conditional use permit request, staff believes that the following findings of fact warrant approval of the conditional use permit. The C2 (General Commercial) zoning designation allows car wash facilities subject to the approval of a CUP per Section 41- 377.5(b) of the SAMC, The CUP requirement allows staff and decisional bodies to review each project on an individual basis to determine compatibility with the surrounding area and apply appropriate conditions to ensure the proposed business will not negatively affect the surrounding properties or community. The proposed car wash facility will provide a service to the community. The proposed South Coast Speedwash mixed -use commercial development will support the adjacent commercial and residential uses in the area. This will thereby benefit the community by providing a convenient car wash service with easy access from a major arterial street. Moreover, the project will provide several retail and restaurant tenant spaces that will serve the adjacent communities. The automatic car wash service will provide a convenient option for car wash patrons, and the proposed architecture will enhance the aesthetics of the Bristol Street corridor. The proposed car wash facility will not be detrimental to persons residing or working in the vicinity because the car wash has been designed to minimize potential impacts to vehicles travelling on Bristol Street. The internal stacking area is designed to be at the rear of the project site, away from Bristol Street, and will be separated from the single - family residential uses by existing eight- to ten -foot tall block walls. Additionally, conditions of approval have been incorporated to mitigate potential adverse impacts from occurring on the premises. The proposed use will not adversely affect the economic stability of the area, but will identify the site as viable location to operate a business. The construction of a high - quality project using contemporary architecture and durable building materials in conjunction with the on and off -site improvements will enhance the economic viability of the area, specifically the Bristol Street corridor. The project's parent company was originally established in the City of Victorviile and has been proven to be a viable and successful business. The proposed project will be the company's second location in the Southern California region, The proposed car wash facility will provide an affordable and convenient car wash service, as well as commercial spaces, to attract patrons to benefit the economic stability of the area. 31 C -7
