RESOLUTION NO. 3966
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF TUSTIN APPROVING A TUTORING FACILITY
WITHIN AN EXISTING 980 SQUARE FOOT TENANT SPACE
LOCATED AT 13762 NEWPORT AVENUE, SUITE D
The Planning Commission does hereby resolve as follows:
I.
The Planning Commission finds and determines as follows:
A.
That a proper application for Conditional Use Permit 05-004 was filed by Mr.
Kihei Otani, requesting authorization to establish a tutoring facility for up to
three (3) instructors and twelve (12) students within an existing 980 square
foot tenant space at 13762 Newport Avenue, Suite D.
B.
That the proposed use is consistent with the General Plan "Community
Commercial Business" land use designation which provides for a variety of
commercial uses such as retail businesses and service businesses including
tutoring and/or instructional facilities with the approval of a Conditional Use
Permit. In addition, the project has been reviewed for consistency with the
Air Quality Sub-element of the City of Tustin General Plan and has been
determined to be consistent with the Air Quality Sub-element.
C.
That a public hearing was duly called, noticed, and held on said application
on March 28, 2005, by the Planning Commission.
D.
That the establishment, maintenance, and operation of a tutoring facility will
not be detrimental to the health, safety, morals, comfort, or general welfare
of the persons residing or working in the neighborhood, 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, in that:
1. As conditioned, the use would be limited to a tutoring facility with no
more than three (3) instructors and twelve (12) students on-site at
any given time.
2. As conditioned, the days and hours of operation would be consistent
with other businesses located within the center. The hours of
operation will be limited to 9:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Monday through
Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. Saturday, and closed on Sunday.
3. As conditioned, the proposed use would not result in a parking
impact to the site since the total number of parking spaces required
for the proposed tutoring facility is the same as the previously
permitted retail use at that location.
4. The Traffic Engineer has determined that while the tutoring facility
would generate additional trips in the AM and PM peak hours, the

increase can be accommodated by the existing street system
capacity with no impact to existing levels of service.
E.
This project is Categorically Exempt pursuant to Section 15301, Class 1 of
Title 14, Chapter 3 of the California Code of Regulations (Guidelines for the
California Environmental Quality Act).
II.
The Planning Commission hereby approves Resolution No. 3966 authorizing the
establishment of a tutoring facility with up to three (3) instructors and twelve (12)
students at any given time during permitted business hours within a 980 square foot
