A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF
THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY, CALIFORNIA,
APPROVING A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR THE
EXPANSION OF AN EXISTING CHURCH, INCLUDING THE
CONSTRUCTION OF A NEW SCHOOL, WITH A REQUEST FOR
A REDUCTION IN OFF-STREET PARKING AT 616 E. 8TH ST.
CASE FILE NO. 2012-24 CUP
APN: 556-492-24
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of National City considered a
Conditional Use Permit for the expansion of an existing church, including the
construction of a new school, with a request for a reduction in off-street parking at 616
E. 8th Street at duly advertised public hearing held on February 4, 2013, at which time
oral and documentary evidence was presented; and,
WHEREAS, at said public hearings the Planning Commission considered the
staff report contained in Case File No. 2012-24 CUP 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 Iaw and City Iaw; 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 February 4, 2013, support the following
findings:
1. That the site for the proposed use is adequate in size and shape, since the
expansion of the building can be achieved within the design criteria required by the
Land Use Code, and since the use is consistent with other uses in the area.
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 educational use is expected to produce 225 ADT
(additional daily trips), which can be handled by East 8th Street — an arterial —
operating at LOS B or C.
3. That approval of a reduction in parking based on a shared parking scenario is
warranted, since the two uses are mutually exclusive and would not -occur at the
same time; therefore, not needing to provide parking for both uses simultaneously.
4. That the proposed use will not have an adverse effect upon adjacent or abutting
properties, since the majority of the use will continue to be indoors and that
Conditions of Approval address potential noise issues from outside activities to
mitigate or avoid these issues.
5. That the school is deemed essential and desirable to the public convenience and
welfare, since it will provide additional education opportunities for elementary and
middle school age children in National City.

approved subject to the following conditions:
