CASE FILE NO. CUP-2000-12
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of National City considered a
Conditional Use Permit application for a thrift store at 1220 E. Plaza Boulevard, Suite A, at a
duly advertised public hearing held on July 17, 2000, at which time oral and documentary
evidence was presented; and,
WHEREAS, at said public hearing the Planning Commission considered the staff report
contained in Case File No. CUP-2000-12 which is maintained by the City and incorporated
herein by reference along with evidence and testimony at said hearing; and,
WHEREAS, this action is taken pursuant to all applicable procedures required by State
law and City law; and,
WHEREAS, the 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 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 July 17, 2000, support the following findings:
1. That the site for the proposed use is adequate in size and shape, since the proposed
activities will take place in an 18,440 square foot suite, located in an existing
shopping center on a 4.54 acre parcel.
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 proposed use is in an existing facility served by East Plaza Boulevard,
an arterial roadway with sufficient capacity to handle traffic to the site.
3. That the proposed use will not have an adverse effect upon adjacent or abutting
properties, since the project site is located in an existing shopping center which is
oriented away from nearby residences.
4. That the proposed use is deemed essential and desirable to the public convenience
and welfare, since it will provide opportunities to purchase both new and used
merchandise in one location.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the application for Conditional Use Permit is approved
subject to the following conditions:
Plans submitted with any application for a building permit must comply with the 1998
California Building Code, the California Mechanical Code, the California Plumbing

property owner both shall sign and have notarized an Acceptance Form, provided by the
Planning Department, acknowledging and accepting all conditions imposed upon the
approval of this permit. Failure to return the signed and notarized Acceptance Form
within 30 days of its receipt shall automatically terminate the Conditional Use Permit.
The applicant shall also submit evidence to the satisfaction of the Planning Director that
a Notice of Restriction on Real Properly is recorded with the County Recorder. The
