VIII. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FINDINGS The Planning Commission must make the following findings prior to granting the conditional use permit for the Home Deport building materials and garden center: 1. The proposed location of the conditional use is in accordance with the objectives of the zoning ordinance and the purpose of the district in which the site is located. ^ The site of the proposed uses is located in the Stanley Business Park, which condi- tionally permits building supply stores and garden centers. The proposed condition- ally allowed uses with the permitted commercial uses of the overall development will support the businesses of the nearby Stanley Business Park and would provide a vari- ety of goods and services arc available to the business park tenants and to the resi- dents of the nearby neighborhoods. ^ Staff believes that the Home Depot building supply store/garden will potentially re- duce the amount of cross-town trips to similar businesses. The conditions of approval proposed for this project give the City the appropriate controls to ensure that the use does not have any negative impacts on surrounding businesses. The use permit for the building supply store/garden center is, therefore, in accordance with the objectives of the zoning for this district and staff believes that this finding can be made. Therefore, staff believes that this finding can be made. 2. The proposed location of the conditional use and the conditions under which it would be operated or maintained will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare, or materially injurious to the properties of improvements in the vicinity. A sufficient quantity of parking is provided on-site to accommodate the parking de- mands for this use in conformance with the parking requirements established by the Pleasanton Municipal Code. As proposed and/or conditioned, staff feels that the pro- posed use will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, and welfare, nor will it pose a threat to surrounding properties or improvements. Therefore, staff believes that this finding can be made. 3. The proposed conditional use will comply with each of the applicable provisions of this chapter. The site's present PUD zoning designation conditionally permits a building supply store/garden center. As proposed and conditioned, the uses and drive-through lanes comply with all relevant sections of the Pleasanton Municipal Code. Therefore, staff believes that this finding can be made.
