The Planning Commission finds and determines as follows: Ao That a proper application, Conditional Use Permit 03-019, was filed by Charmaine Munroe on behalf of the California Eye Clinic for Animals requesting authorization to expand an existing 3,035 square foot specialty veterinary facility located in Building 3 of Planning Area BID within the Jamboree Plaza Planned Community into 2,668 square feet of tenant space adjacently located in Building 4 for the purpose of providing optometric and ophthalmologic procedures for small domestic animals at 3025 and 3029 Edinger Avenue. That a public hearing was duly called, noticed, and held for said application on January 26, 2004, by the Planning Commission. Co That the proposed project is in compliance with the Jamboree Plaza Planned Community District Regulations in that veterinary offices are allowed with an approved conditional use permit. The proposed project is in compliance with the Planned Community Commercial Business General Plan Land Use Designation of the Tustin General Plan in that the designation supports professional office uses such as veterinarian offices. That operation of a specialty veterinary office, as conditioned, will not be detrimental to the health, safety, morals, comfort, or general welfare of the persons residing or working in the neighborhood of such proposed use, nor be injurious or detrimental to the property and improvements in the neighborhood of the subject property, or to the general welfare of the City of Tustin, as evidenced by the following findings: a) The proposed expansion of an existing veterinary facility, as conditioned, would not be detrimental to, or have a negative effect on, surrounding properties in that the expansion is located within a commercial business center where sufficient parking is available. The maximum trip generation associated with the veterinary office will not exceed the maximum trip capacity for Jamboree Plaza and no impacts to Edinger Avenue are anticipated. b) All operations will continue to be monitored by regulatory agencies including: Orange County Fire Authority, the Orange County Health Care Agency, the Orange County Integrated Waste Management Department, and the California Department of Health Services. Resolution No. 3906 Page 2 c) The proposed use, as conditioned, will not be detrimental to the health, safety, morals, comfort, and general welfare of persons residing or working in the neighborhood in that all activities would take place within the building. In particular, animals would be confined to within the building. Storage of biohazardous, medical, and sharps wastes would take place within the building in compliance with requirements of the applicable regulatory agency. d) Approval of the use will not create an over concentration of veterinary uses in the Commercial Center in that the use is an expansion of an existing veterinary use into a relatively small amount (2,688 square feet) of existing adjacent tenant space. The expansion of the proposed veterinary use will accommodate accessory office space for veterinary staff and no new exam, surgery, or holding pens are proposed. This project is Categorically Exempt pursuant to Sections 15301 (Class 1) of the California Code of Regulations (Guidelines for the California Environmental Quality Act). II. The Planning Commission hereby approves CUP 03-019 to establish a 5,703 square foot specialty veterinary facility for the purpose of providing optometric and ophthalmologic procedures for small domestic animals at 3025 and 3029 Edinger Avenue, Buildings 3 and 4 of Planning Area BID within the Jamboree Plaza Planned Community.
