PUBLIC NOTICE

A Notice of Public Hearing has been advertised for the Planning Commission meeting of Tuesday, January 21, 2020, with notices mailed to all property owners within a 600-foot radius of the subject site, posted at Camarillo City Hall, as well as on the City’s website (www.cityofcamarillo.org), and published in a newspaper of general circulation within the area (Camarillo Acorn). Additionally, an 11-inch by 17-inch on-site sign advertising the meeting has been placed on the window of the unit.

DISCUSSION

Environmental Review

The project was reviewed in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the State CEQA guidelines, as well as the City’s environmental guidelines, and was determined to be categorically exempt from the provisions of CEQA under Class 1, Existing Facilities (CEQA Guidelines section 15301) because the proposed kennel involves the use of the existing industrial building, involving negligible or no expansion of use; therefore, no additional review is necessary.

Parcel and Area Characteristics

The project site is located within an existing industrial business park and is surrounded by the following land uses:

On August 7, 1979, the Planning Commission approved an Industrial Planned Development permit (IPD-51) authorizing the construction of the two industrial buildings, surface parking lot, and landscaping that comprise the business park at the northwest corner of Pleasant Valley Road and Calle San Pablo. The two buildings that comprise the industrial park were completed in 1982.

View of project site from Pleasant Valley Road looking northwest.

General Plan

The Camarillo General Plan Land Use Map designates the property for industrial uses. The proposed dog and cat kennel is an industrial use and is consistent with the Industrial land use designation. The General Plan Circulation Element identifies Pleasant Valley Road as a primary arterial street.

Zoning

The subject use is zoned Light Manufacturing (M-1). The proposed dog and cat kennel is a use permitted in the M-1 Zone, subject to the approval of a CUP under CMC section 19.30.040.A.9, and is consistent with the provisions of the M-1 Zone.

Proposed Project Use

Paw Works operates a dog and cat rescue out of a storefront at The Oaks mall in the City of Thousand Oaks. When the storefront is closed, the animals available for adoption are brought to the kennel facility for overnight boarding, feeding, and grooming. The animals will be in the kennel overnight, however, no overnight staff will be present at the facility.

Parking and Loading

Pursuant to CMC section 19.44.090, the 3,345-square-foot kennel facility requires a total of seven parking spaces (one space per 500 square feet). The remaining uses in the business park include industrial uses parking, at one parking space per 500 square feet of space. The total parking required, including Paw Works is 92 parking spaces. The existing business parking provides 92 shared spaces on site.

STAFF REVIEW AND RECOMMENDATION

Paw Works began operating at the subject location prior to obtaining a CUP. Code Compliance visited the site and informed the applicant that a CUP is required in order to continue operating the business. The approval of CUP-397 will remove the open code violation and permit Paw Works to continue operating their business at the site.

A CUP is required in the M-1 Zone, pursuant to CMC section 19.30.040.A.9, for dog and cat kennels. The purpose of the CUP is to ensure the proposed use is appropriately located and operated. In addition, conditions are placed on the business in order to protect the public health, safety, peace, and welfare. The CUP process also allows the City to monitor the use and verify that it is operating in accordance with the terms of its CUP, and the requirements of the M-1 Zone.

In reviewing the application and site conditions, staff finds that the dog and cat kennel would be compatible with the adjacent uses. The kennel would be located at the end unit of the multi-tenant building, sharing a wall with one other unit that is currently occupied by Advanced PPE, an industrial fire protection business. Other uses within the buildings are automotive, commercial, industrial, and an animal day care. Adjacent uses located to the north and east of the subject site are industrial uses that are separated by adjoining streets or drive aisles. Adjacent uses located to the west of the subject site are agricultural, separated by the railroad tracks, and the use to the south is agricultural across Pleasant Valley Road.

There are no sensitive uses or receptors in the area that would be negatively affected by the proposed use. The proposed use will be conducted entirely within the interior of the building, and no outdoor activities will be conducted other than allowing one dog to be walked at a time per person. The project is conditioned to be maintained and operated in such a manner as to produce no objectionable odors or noise outside of its walls.

Additionally, the dog and cat kennel must comply with the requirements of the City’s noise regulations applicable to industrial properties. If such standards are exceeded, or if the cries and barking of the animals kept at the premises result in recurring, unreasonable disturbances of adjacent uses, even if such noise standards are not exceeded, the Director may require the facility to add special sound proofing to the existing walls or take such other measures to reduce the noise impact as directed by the Director of Community Development

In order to ensure compliance with the M-1 Zone, and that the dog and cat kennel is compatible with the surrounding uses, the following special conditions of approval are recommended as follows:

The use must be operated in such a way as to produce no objectionable odors or noise outside of its walls.

The proposed animal kennel facility must comply with the requirements of the City’s noise regulations applicable to industrial properties. If such standards are exceeded, or if the cries and barking of the animals kept at the premises result in recurring, unreasonable disturbances of adjacent uses even if such noise standards are not exceeded, the Director may require the facility to add special sound proofing to the existing walls or take such other measures to reduce the noise impact as directed by Director of Community Development.

Planning Commission Agenda Report January 21, 2020 CUP-397, Paw Works Page 5 of 6

Only one dog may be walked outdoors at a time. Dog waste is to be picked up and placed in plastic bags and disposed of properly in the trash bin at the project location.

Staff has reviewed the proposed project for consistency with the applicable goals and policies of the City’s General Plan, and the development standards set forth in the Zoning Ordinance.

Land Use Element, Industrial Uses, Section 4.16: Ensuring compatibility by preventing the intrusion of incompatible uses which would reduce the efficiency of the industries that already exist.

The dog and cat kennel is a conditionally permitted use in the M-1 Zone and is compatible with the adjacent uses on the subject site. The kennel is located in the end unit of a multi-tenant building in an existing business park, which provides sufficient shared parking to accommodate the kennel and adjacent businesses.

Findings

Staff has reviewed the proposed project for consistency with the applicable goals and policies of the City’s General Plan, and the use standards set forth in the Zoning Ordinance.

Staff therefore recommends approval of CUP-397, subject to the attached recommended conditions. At the conclusion of the public hearing, if the Planning Commission concurs with staff’s recommendation, a resolution approving the application has been prepared subject to the following findings in support of the request:

A. That the use applied for at the location set forth in the application is properly one for which a Conditional Use Permit is authorized by CMC Chapter 19.30, because the dog and cat kennel is a conditionally permitted use in the M-1 Zone, and complies with the parking requirements and industrial performance standards.

B. That the use is necessary or desirable for the development of the community, is in harmony with the various elements or objectives of the General Plan, and is not detrimental to existing uses or to uses specifically permitted in the zone in which the proposed use is to be located, because the dog and cat kennel is permitted in the M-1 Zone with a Conditional Use Permit and conditions of approval have been applied to ensure compatibility with other existing industrial uses surrounding the project site. Additionally, there are no sensitive uses or receptors in the area that would be negatively affected by the use.

C. That the site for the intended use is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the use and all of the yards, setbacks, walls or fences, landscaping and other features required in order to adjust the use to those existing or permitted future uses on land in the neighborhood, because the use is proposed to occupy an existing 3,345 square-foot industrial building space on a 2.51-acre site, which is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the dog and cat kennel. Per CMC section 19.44.100(1), a total of six parking spaces are required for the use, with 92 shared parking spaces provided on-site. The number of parking was determined on the amount of usable square footage for the dog and cat kennel excluding storage, hallway, and utilities floor space. Therefore, the proposed use meets the parking requirements.

PC Item 7 Page 5

Planning Commission Agenda Report January 21, 2020 CUP-397, Paw Works Page 6 of 6

D. That the site for the proposed use relates to streets and highways properly designed and improved to carry the type and quantity of traffic generated or to be generated by the proposed use, because Pleasant Valley Road and Calle San Pablo are improved streets and can accommodate the anticipated traffic for this use and provide adequate access to the site.

E. That the conditions set forth as part of the approval of the Conditional Use Permit are deemed necessary to protect the public health, safety, and general welfare, because the conditions of approval address objectionable odors and noise, and will prevent the business from becoming a nuisance to adjacent uses.

SUGGESTED ACTION

Adopt a resolution approving CUP-397, subject to the recommended conditions of approval. The action of the Planning Commission is final, unless an appeal is filed within 10 days of the date of their action.

SECTION 2. Environmental Review. The project was reviewed in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the State CEQA guidelines, as well as the City’s environmental guidelines, and was determined to be categorically exempt from the provisions of CEQA under Class 1, Existing Facilities (CEQA Guidelines section 15301) because the proposed kennel involves the use of the existing commercial building, involving negligible or no expansion of use; therefore, no additional review is necessary.

SECTION 3. Project Findings. The Planning Commission, after reviewing the application and receiving testimony at a public hearing on this Conditional Use Permit, CUP-397, finds that the application may be approved based on the following findings:

A. That the use applied for at the location set forth in the application is properly one for which a conditional use permit is authorized by this CMC Chapter 19.30, because the dog and cat kennel is a conditionally permitted use in the M-1 Zone, and complies with the parking requirements and industrial performance standards.

E. That the conditions set forth as part of the approval of the Conditional Use Permit are deemed necessary to protect the public health, safety, and general welfare, because the conditions of approval address objectionable odors and noise, and will prevent the business from becoming a nuisance to adjacent uses.
