WHEREAS, Kayo Yoshii, of Akol & Yoshii Architects, on behalf of
the Murray School District, request approval of a Conditional Use Permit to
allow use of Lot #20 of Tentative Map 5616, covering the Fallon School Site
facility as the Administrative Offices and Corporation Yard for the Murray
School District and to make continued use of one of the existing on-site
buildings by the Kaleidoscope Center; and
WHEREAS, the adopted City of Dublin Zoning Ordinance restricts the
operation of a Community Facility in an R-1-B-E, Single Family Residential
Combining District until a Conditional Use Permit is secured; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did hold a public hearing on said
application on August 17, 1987; and
WHEREAS, proper notice of said public hearing was given in all
respects as required by law; and
WHEREAS, this application has been reviewed in accordance with the
provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act and a Mitigated
Negative Declaration of Environmental Significance has been previously adopted
for the project (Planning Commission Resolution No. 87 - 058); and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission finds that the Conditional Use
Permit, as mitigated, will not have a significant environmental impact; and
WHEREAS, the Staff Report was submitted recommending that the
Conditional Use Permit application be conditionally approved; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did hear and consider all said
reports, recommendations and testimony herein above set forth; and
WHEREAS, the proposed land use, if conditionally approved, is
appropriate for the subject property in terms of being compatible to existing
land uses in the area and will not overburden public services;
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT THE Planning Commission finds:
a) Use of the 5.4+ acre site (covering the area composing Lots #19 and #20
of Tentative Map 5616) for the Murray School District's Administrative
Offices and Corporation Yard and to make continued use of one of the
existing on-site buildings by the Kaleidoscope Center, serves the public
need by providing for the operation of a needed multi-use Community
Facility.
b) The uses will be properly related to other land uses, and transportation
and service facilities in the vicinity, as the proposed use will be a
relatively low intensity land use, with exterior activities adequately
screened and/or set back from adjoining residences to minimize any
adverse visual or acoustical impacts.
c) The uses will not materially adversely affect 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 neighborhood, as all applicable regulations will be
met.
