Resolution No. 4400
Page 2
size, architectural features, and general appearance of the
proposed project will not impair the orderly and harmonious
development of the area, the present or 'future development
therein, or the occupancy as a whole. In making such findings,
the Community Development Department has considered at
least the following items:
a. Height, bulk and area of buildings. The height and bulk of
the proposed project is compatible with surrounding
buildings in that the proposed is between twenty (20) and
twenty-eight (28) feet high, similar to the existing
surrounding commercial and office buildings.
b. Setbacks and site planning. The proposed building
setback of approximately one hundred thirty (130) feet on
the southeast elevation meets the setback requirement of
five (5) feet setback from the property line. All other
existing building setbacks will remain unchanged.
c. Exterior materials and colors. The proposed exterior
materials and colors are appropriate for the use and the
area in that the design provides an updated look and
presents a contemporary fagade,which is typical of stand-
alone health club facilities in the area.
d. Type and pitch of roofs. The proposed roof design is flat
with parapets of varying heights, which is similar to the
surrounding commercial and office buildings.
e. Size and spacing of windows, doors and other openings.
The proposed size and spacing of windows and doors are
compatible for the area in that there are store fronts with
clear glass along the front elevation and increases the
visual engagement between the interior and exterior
areas.
f. Landscaping and parking area design. The proposed
landscaping, as conditioned, shall comply with the Water
Efficient Landscape Ordinance requirements. The
proposed parking lot is in compliance with development
standards.
g. Location, height and standards of exterior illumination. As

an enclosed structure. As proposed and conditioned,
Resolution No. 4400
Page 3
equipment shall be screened with the building parapet or
landscaping screening.
i. Location and method of refuse storage. As conditioned,
the trash enclosure will provide adequate room for trash
bin storage and easily allow for trash collection services.
The trash enclosure will also be designed with a mesh
barrier to deter illegal dumping.
j. Appearance and design relationship of proposed
structures to existing structures and possible future
structures in the neighborhood and public thoroughfares.
The proposed structure is compatible with existing and
possible future structures in that the building is
contemporary in design, its location is primarily
unchanged, and will have a street view similar to the
existing street view.

comply with applicable regulations and shall be submitted
to the Community Development Department for review
and approval.

Guidelines and criteria as adopted by the City Council.

development standards, and provides an updated look to
the existing building by adding contemporary architectural
elements and adding new parking spaces to
accommodate the proposed health club use.
6) As conditioned, CUP 2019-00022 and DR 2019-00017 may be
reviewed on an annual basis, or more often if necessary, by the
Community Development Director. If the use is not operated in

to be a nuisance or negative impacts are affecting the surrounding
uses, the Community Development Director would have the
authority to impose additional conditions to eliminate the nuisance
