WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of National City considered a Planned
Development Permit application to allow a 38-unit motel at the northeast corner of 7"' Street and

oral and documentary evidence was presented; and,
WHEREAS, at said public hearing the Planning Commission considered the staff report
contained in Case File No. PD-1999-4 .and IS-1999-5, which is maintained by the City and
incorporated herein by reference along with evidence and testimony at said hearing; and,

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of the City of
National City, California, that the testimony and evidence presented to the Planning Commission
at the public hearing held on May 1, 2000, support the following findings:
That the site for the proposed use is adequate in size and shape, since the 23,958 square foot
site exceeds the minimum 10,000 square foot lot size identified in City Codes for motel use,
and since the project site plan includes parking, landscaping, and a pool to serve the use in
compliance with City Code requirements.
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 project is located on a collector street and nearby 8' Street is capable of handling the
minimal increase in traffic that will be generated by the use.
3. That the proposed use will not have an adverse effect upon adjacent or abutting properties,
since the proposed motel complies with Design Guidelines and will be compatible with
adjacent hotel/motel and commercial uses.

welfare, since the proposed use is encouraged by the Tourist -Commercial Zoning of the
property and is in the Motel -Planned Development Combining Zone area designed to allow
for the development of this type of use.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Planning Commission has considered the
proposed Negative Declaration No. IS-1999-5, together with any comments received during the
