The City Council of the City of Tustin does hereby finds and resolves as follows: A. A proper application for Use Determination 2012-03 was filed by Randy Taylor of Goodwill Industries of Orange County requesting authorization to establish a retail store selling new and previously used goods and clothing with ancillary donation area as a conditionally permitted use within the commercial land use designations of the First Street Specific Plan. B. The proposed use is not listed as a permitted, conditionally permitted, or prohibited use within the First Street Specific Plan. Therefore, a Use Determination is necessary to decide if the proposed use would be permitted, conditionally permitted, or prohibited in the First Street Specific Plan. C. That a public hearing was duly called, noticed, and held for Use Determination 2012-03 in conjunction with Conditional Use Permit 2012- 09 on August 28, 2012, by the Planning Commission. D. That on August 28, 2012, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution Nos. 4200 and 4201, approving Use Determination 2012-03 and conditionally approving Conditional Use Permit 2012-09. E. That on September 4, 2012, an appeal of the Planning Commission's decision to approve Use Determination 2012-03 and Conditional Use Permit 2012-09 was filed by Councilmember Gavello. F. That a public hearing was duly called, noticed, and held for said appeal on October 2, 2012, before the City Council. G. That approval of Use Determination 2012-03 to allow for retail stores selling new and previously used goods and clothing with ancillary donation areas as a conditionally permitted use within the commercial land use designations of the First Street Specific Plan can be supported by the following findings: 1) Existing retail stores selling previously used goods and clothing with Resolution 12-85 Page 1 of 3 ancillary donation areas have been conditionally permitted in other FIVIN commercial districts within the City. IN 07 2) The primary use of the proposed retail store selling new and previously used goods and clothing with ancillary donation area is "retail" sales. The donation area would be an ancillary use to the retail component. No traffic impacts are anticipated to result from the proposed use as it is a primarily retail use located in a commercial land use designation. 3) Due to the potential for nuisance associated with a donation area, it is appropriate to require approval of a conditional use permit to ensure proper operation and maintenance of the facilities. 4) The proposed use would be considered on a case-by-case basis and subject to the conditional use permit process and public noticing requirements. Projects would be conditioned to ensure that there would be no adverse impacts on the existing neighborhoods. H. That the proposed Use Determination is exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the California Code of Regulations Title 14, Chapter 3 (Guidelines for the California Environmental Quality Act). There is no possibility that the proposed Use Determination may have a significant effect on the environment, therefore the activity is not subject to CEQA. 11. The City Council hereby approves Use Determination 2012-03 to allow retail stores selling new and previously used goods and clothing with ancillary donation area as a conditionally permitted use within the commercial land use designations of the First Street Specific Plan.
