RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY
APPROVING A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR A DRIVE -THROUGH
FAST FOOD RESTAURANT TO BE LOCATED ADJACENT
TO 401 MILE OF CARS WAY
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of National City considered a Conditional
Use Permit for a drive -through fast food restaurant to be located adjacent to 401 Mile of Cars
Way, at a duly advertised public hearing held on August 18, 2015, at which time the City Council
considered evidence; and
WHEREAS, at said public hearing the City Council considered the staff report
provided for Case File No. 2015-01 CUP, which is maintained by the City and incorporated
herein by reference, along with any other evidence presented at said hearing; and
WHEREAS, this action is taken pursuant to all applicable procedures required by
State and City law; and
WHEREAS, the action hereby taken is found to be essential for the preservation
of the public health, safety, and general welfare.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of
National City that the evidence presented to the City Council at the public hearing held on
August 18, 2015, support the following findings:
1. That the proposed use is allowable within the applicable zoning district pursuant to a
Conditional Use Permit, and complies with all other applicable provisions of the Land
Use Code, because drive -through restaurants are a permitted use in the Multi -Use
Commercial -Residential (MCR-2) zone.
2. That the proposed use is consistent with the General Plan and any applicable specific
plans, because drive -through restaurants are conditionally -allowed by the Land Use
Code, which is consistent with the General Plan, in the MCR-2 zone, and because drive -
through restaurants are permitted by right in the Westside Specific Plan area.
3. That the design, location, size, and operating characteristics of the proposed activity
would be compatible with the existing and future land uses in the vicinity, because the
proposed design meets all design requirements for drive -through businesses, and because
the current street network is able to absorb additional vehicular traffic without resulting in an
unsatisfactory level of service.
4. That the site is physically suitable for the type, density, and intensity of use being
proposed, including access, utilities, and the absence of physical constraints, because
the property can continue to provide enough parking spaces based on provisions and
reductions outlined in the Land Use Code.
5. Granting the permit would not constitute a nuisance or be injurious or detrimental to the
public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare, or materially injurious to persons,
property, or improvements in the vicinity and zone in which the property is located,
because the proposed use will be compatible with other nearby businesses, and because

the proposed use will be subject to conditions that require compliance with the National City
Municipal Code.
6. That the proposed project has been reviewed in compliance with the California
Environmental Quality Act, because staff has already determined that the proposed use
is categorically exempt from environmental review pursuant to Class 11 Section 15311
(Accessory Structures), for which a Notice of Exemption will be filed subsequent to
approval of this Conditional Use Permit.
7 That the proposed project qualifies for a reduction of 21 standard -size parking spaces,
because the property has the opportunity for 18 motorcycle spaces in lieu of standard
vehicle spaces and can restripe excess compact spaces to provide the addition three (3)
standard spaces.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the application for a Conditional Use Permit is
approved subject to the following conditions:
