January 20, 2015 <br />Page 4 <br />assembly (12,941 square feet) is 90,520 square feet. Thus, at least 91 spaces must be on the site to <br />serve the remainder of the building. In 2009, a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) was issued for a <br />daycare center at this location. Part of the approval of the CUP included providing parking at higher <br />levels than the 1 space per 1,000 square feet for light industrial uses. Required parking included one <br />space for each employee on the largest shift and one visitor space for every 10 children. Based <br />today's staffing and enrollment, 12 spaces are needed. It is likely that if an "adult daycare" use is <br />requested at this site, a similar parking ratio would be applied, which would be evaluated at that <br />time. <br />With the additional parking for lounges, a total of 266 spaces would be needed to serve the entire <br />site (165 for Islamic Center, 89 for the remainder of the building (less the daycare space), and 12 for <br />the daycare space). <br />In 2012, the Applicant indicated that the amount of parking currently (legally) available is 283 spaces <br />between the two parcels of land. The Applicant also indicated that the existing spaces exceed the <br />minimum requirements (width and length) of the City and that the lot could be restriped to gain an <br />additional 20 parking spaces, bringing the total available parking to 303 stalls. <br />The parcel with the existing building on it (PID 0602923410140) does not currently have enough <br />parking to service all of the proposed uses. Parking will be needed from the adjacent parcel to the <br />north (PID 0602923410139) in order to meet the parking requirements of the City's Zoning Code. <br />Combined, the two parcels have a total of 283 parking stalls, which exceeds the larger parking <br />requirement of 266 spaces. As a result, staff is recommending that the City Council approve a lot <br />combination of the two separate parcels into one parcel pursuant to Section §151.08 of the City <br />Code. Staff is also recommending that the Property Owner /Applicant submit proof to the City that <br />the two parcels have legally been combined within 180 days of the signed Development Agreement. <br />Staff is recommending that changes in occupancy or uses within the existing building (be them <br />permitted uses or conditional uses with the issuance of a CUP) should be reviewed and approved by <br />the City Manager to ensure that there is adequate parking space available to accommodate all uses <br />on the property. <br />Additionally, staff is recommending that within one (1) year of issuance of an occupancy permit, the <br />Property Owner /Applicant must perform a parking /traffic study in a form approved by the City <br />Engineer to determine if parking demand caused by the proposed uses on the Property is sufficient <br />to warrant the available parking area to be re- striped to the City minimum standards of 9 feet by 19 <br />feet stalls. Voluntary re- striping of the parking area to meet this standard at an earlier date will also <br />satisfy this condition. <br />Staff is also recommending that only vehicles associated with the businesses or activities located <br />within the existing building shall be parking along the easternmost portion of the existing parking lot <br />along Highway 88, which provides safe ingress and egress of vehicles, maximizes parking stall <br />availability on the overall site, and will be located furthest from existing single - family residential <br />homes across Old Highway 8 to the west. Only those vehicles accessory to principal uses located <br />within the existing building are permitted to be parked on the site at all times. <br />Signaae <br />The Applicant has not submitted a sign requires at this time. The Applicant /Property Owner must <br />obtain a sign permit from the City prior to the installation of any signage on site. All signs must <br />comply with Chapter 155 of the City Code. <br />
