determine and resolve as follows:
B. PLANNING COMMISSION RECORD
The proceedings and all evidence on the project introduced before the Planning
Commission at their public hearing on this project held on October 9, 2002, and the minutes and
resolution resulting therefrom, are hereby incorporated imo the record of this proceeding.
C. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FINDINGS
1. That the proposed use at this location is necessary or desirable to provide a
service or facility which will contribute to the general well being of the neighborhood or the
community.
The use consists of ten satellite dish amennas (nine, 10-foot diameter and one 3-foot diameter), a
40-foot antenna tower with various antennas and a 210 square foot equipment storage. Chula
Vista Cable has a franchise agreement with the City of Chula Vista to operate its television cable
facility. The facility currently receives signals for cable television for customers in the western
Chula Vista area. The facility has been operating at 706 'F' Street for approximately 15 years
without any significant number of complaints from the surrounding neighbors. Chula Vista
Cable provides an alternative cable service, thereby increasing options and competition for more
and better service to residents.
2. That such use will not under the circumstances of the particular case be
detrimental to the health, safety or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity
or injurious to property or improvements in the vicinity.
The Chula Vista Cable facility has been operating at 706 "F" Street for approximately 15 years.
There is no historical data that indicates that the operation of the satellites dishes and antenna
tower has created or caused any negative effects on the residents of the adjacent apartment
complex or the surrounding area. The legalization of the additional satellite dishes and antenna
tower will not create or cause new negative effects.
3. That the proposed use will comply with the regulations and conditions specified
in the code for such use.
The proposed use is an unclassified use. Conditional approval of PCC-02-84 requires
compliance with all conditions, codes and regulations for Unclassified Uses in the Apartmem
Residemial (R-3) zoning district, as applicable, prior to the final issuance of any permit or for the
use as described.
4. That the granting of this Conditional Use Permit will not adversely affect the
General Plan of the City or the adopted plan of any government agency.
The project is an unclassified use and is consistent with the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance
land use designations. The property is zoned R-3, which allows unclassified uses with a
Conditional Use Permit. The project as conditioned, is in compliance with the applicable codes
and regulations. All conditions must be satisfied prior to final building inspection.
