Receive a report from Staff and consider the following requests with a recommendation to City Council:
1. Specific Plan Amendment (SPA) 2023-002 to amend the Gateway Center Specific Plan (GCSP) as follows: allow Vehicle Washing subject to a Conditional Use Permit (CUP), authorize a site specific 75% (9-space) parking reduction, change building orientation and modify access driveways to accommodate Vehicle Washing building traffic circulation on-site; and
2. Conditional Use Permit (CUP) 2023-022 to construct and operate a 3,588 square foot Vehicle Washing building with outdoor vacuums.
If the Commission recommends approval, the Commission will also need to recommend the City Council find the project categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15305 (Minor Alterations in Land Use Limitations) for the Specific Plan Amendment that was already analyzed through the GCSP Mitigated Negative Declaration and Section 15332 (In-fill Development Projects) for the Conditional Use Permit, if approved.
If the Commission recommends denial, the Commission will also need to recommend the City Council find the project statutorily exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15270 (Projects Which are Disapproved).
