A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION
OF THE CITY OF DUBLIN
DENYING PA 88-017 HOWARD JOHNSON CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT REQUEST FOR A 26-FOOT
TALL FREESTANDING SIGN LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 9 FEET FROM THE REAR PROPERTY LINE
AT 6680 REGIONAL STREET
WHEREAS, Johnson Clark, representing Howard Johnson Motor Lodge,
filed an application for a Conditional Use Permit to locate a 26-foot tall
freestanding business identification sign, located approximately 9 feet from
the rear property line and a Variance request to exceed the maximum sign area,
height, and setback restrictions; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held a public hearing on said
application on March 21, 1988; and
WHEREAS, proper notice of said public hearing was given in all
respects as required by law; and
WHEREAS, the request is categorically exempt in accordance with
the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act; and
WHEREAS, a Staff Report was submitted recommending the application
be denied; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission heard and considered all said
reports, recommendations, and testimony hereinabove set forth; and
WHEREAS, on March 21, 1988, the Planning Commission adopted
Resolution No. 88-015 denying PA 88-017 Variance request as the findings could
not be made to warranty granting the Variance;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT THE Dublin Planning Commission
does hereby find:
a. The use as proposed is not required by the public need in that the
proposed sign does not comply with the City's Sign Ordinance related to
sign area, height, and setback.
b. The proposed use would not be properly related to other land uses and
transportation and service facilities in the vicinity, as the sign far
exceeds the permitted sign height and sign area for its proposed
location.
c. The use, if permitted under all circumstances and conditions of this
particular case, may materially affect adversely the health or safety of
persons residing or working in the vicinity, or be materially detrimental
to the public welfare, or injurious to property or improvements in the
area, as the sign does not comply with or meet the intent of the Sign
Ordinance to promote uniformity through restrictions in location, height,
and size.
n
d. The use will be contrary to the specific intent clause or performance
standards established for the district in which it is to be located, in
that the sign does not comply with the sign regulations and does not
promote uniformity and orderly development, which is a primary intent of
the City's Sign Ordinance.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Dublin Planning Commission does
hereby deny PA 88-017 Howard Johnson Conditional Use Permit for a freestanding
sign 26 feet tall, setback 9 feet from the rear property line, containing 156
square feet of sign area.
PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED this 21st day of March, 1988.
