APPLICANT: ABLAZE FOR JESUS MINISTRIES
CASE FILE NO. CUP-2002-1
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of National City considered a Conditional
Use Permit application for a church at 3142 Plaza Boulevard, Suites F through H near True Value
Hardware at the regularly scheduled City Council meeting of May 21, 2002, at which time oral and
documentary evidence was presented; and
WHEREAS, at said public hearing the City Council considered the staff report
prepared for Case File No. CUP-2002-1 which is maintained by the City, and incorporated herein by
reference; and
WHEREAS, this action is taken pursuant to all applicable procedures required by
State and City law; and
WHEREAS, this action recited herein is found to be essential for the preservation of
public health, safety and general welfare.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of National
City, California, that the testimony and evidence presented to the City Council at the public hearing
held on May 21, 2002, support the following findings:
1. That the site for the proposed use is adequate in size and shape, since the use will take place
inside a 2,400 square feet lease area, which is adequate for the small number of people in the
congregation, and since there are 135 parking spaces provided in the shopping center.
2. That the site has sufficient access to streets and highways that are adequate in width and
pavement type to carry the volume and type of traffic generated by the proposed use, since the
site is on a prime arterial which can easily accommodate the approximately 30 to 40 daily trips
that would be generated by the use.
3. That the proposed use will not have an adverse effect upon adjacent or abutting properties, since
the use will take place entirely inside of a commercial building and will have conditions limiting
the potential noise impact from the use.
4. That the proposed use is deemed essential and desirable to the public convenience and welfare,
since it will provide opportunities for its members and their guests to attend religious services,
and the proposed use will occupy vacant space and add activity in the eastern portion of Plaza
Village Center.
