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 July 20, 2004, support the following findings: 1. That the site for the proposed use is adequate in size and shape, since the sale of beer and wine for on -site consumption will be in an existing 2,236 square foot restaurant on a 12,320 square foot site; no enlargement or physical changes to the building are proposed. 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 restaurant is existing and the proposal will not substantially affect traffic. 3.
