RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
CHULA VISTA APPROVING EXPANSION OF THE
MINI-WAREHOUSE FACILITY LOCATED AT 340 NAPLES
STREET
The City Council of the City of Chula Vista does hereby
resolve as follows:
WHEREAS, the City Council, at their meeting of April 26,
1988, considered an appeal of a denial of a major use permit to
expand an existing mini-warehouse at 340 Naples Street and was
presented with revised plans and elevations enhancing the
architecture of the proposed expansion,
WHEREAS, Council voted to continue the hearing on the
appeal until the Montgomery Planning Committee had reviewed the
new architectural design and had an opportunity to comment, and
WHEREAS, at the Montgomery Planning Committee meeting of
August 3, 1988, the project was reevaluated with the Committee
voting 6-1 for approval thereby concluding that the revised
design addressed the bulk of their previous concerns and provided
a good transition between the commercial to the east and the
residential to the west, and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission, at its meeting of
August 10, 1988, voted unanimously to recommend approval of the
major use permit, subject to the conditions listed below, and
WHEREAS, an Initial Study, IS-88-33M, of possible
adverse environmental impacts of the project was conducted by the
Environmental Review Coordinator on January 20, 1988 who
concluded that there would be no significant environmental
effects and recommended that the Negative Declaration be adopted.
WHEREAS, based on the following findings, it is
recommended that approval of the major use permit be granted:
1. That the proposed use at the 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 proposed expansion of an existing mini-warehouse
facility as proposed will provide a buffer between
commercial and residential areas, while providing an
architectural link between the two land uses.
-1-
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 proposed expansion of an existing mini-warehouse
facility as proposed is in keeping with a bulk and scale
complementary to the neighboring residential areas, and as
such will not be detrimental to the health, safety or
general welfare of persons residing or working in the
vicinity.
3. That the proposed use will comply with the regulations
and conditions specified in the code for such use.
With approval of a major use permit for the existing
mini-warehouse facility as well as the expansion, the
proposed mini-warehouse use complies with the regulations
and conditions specified in the Code for such use.
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.
Although the Planning and Design Proposals (page 16(f)) of
the newly adopted Montgomery Specific Plan discourages the
proliferation of mini-warehouses within Montgomery, the
proposed project is an exception. The requested major use
permit would not authorize the establishment of a new
mini-warehouse use on the subject premises, but would merely
sanction the expansion and comprehensive upgrading of an
existing facility. This expansion and upgrading would
substantially improve the mini-warehouse's visual and
functional relationships, and improve its economic potential.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the
City of Chula Vista does hereby approve expansion of the
mini-warehouse facility located at 340 Naples Street in
accordance with Planning Commission Resolution PCC-88-23M and
subject to the following conditions:
a. The proposed expansion including all signs shall be
submitted for review and approval by the Design Review
Committee.
b. The applicant shall provide two on-site fire hydrants,
the type and location subject to review and approval by
the City Fire Marshal. Details of existing fire
protection systems shall also be provided for review by
the Fire Marshal.
-2-
C. Any expansion or alteration to the proposed
mini-warehouse project which exceeds the height shown on
the approved site plan and exterior elevations shall be
subject to approval of a modification of the major use
permit.
d. Open storage of any materials or vehicles of any type is
expressly prohibited.
e. The applicant shall submit a landscape plan prepared by
a licensed landscape architect or licensed landscape
contractor in accordance with the City Landscape Manual
for review and approval by the City Landscape
Architect. Landscaping shall be installed in accordance
with the approved plan and maintained in good condition
at all times. Failure to maintain required landscaping
in good condition shall constitute grounds for
revocation of the major use permit.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council does hereby
find that the project will have no significant environmental
impacts and adopts the Negative Declaration issued on IS-88-33M.
