PLANNED DEVELOPMENT FINDINGS: Based upon the information set forth in the staff report, accompanying studies, and oral and written public testimony, the Planning Commission makes the following findings in accordance with City of Moorpark, Municipal Code Section 17.44.040: A. The site design, including structure location, size, height, setbacks, massing, scale, architectural style and colors and landscaping, is consistent with the provisions of the general plan, zoning ordinance, and other applicable regulations, as it meets or exceeds the Commercial Office development standards for setbacks, parking, landscaping and height and meets the intent contained within applicable City Ordinances, guidelines and policies; and the proposed project is compatible with the site planning and architecture of the adjacent commercial center. B. The site design would not create negative impacts on or impair the utility of properties, structures or uses in the surrounding area as the property is zoned to allow a commercial office development and the site plan design integrates the building location at the south - western section of the subject property, thus SACommunity Development\DEV PMTS \C P D\2005 \04 Grand Moorpark \Reso \PC - 2006- 510.doc Resolution No. PC- 2006 -510 Page 2 minimizing impacts on adjacent residential properties while preserving visibility of the adjacent commercial structures as viewed from off -site. Generous setbacks from adjacent residential properties preclude impacts on the privacy and amount of light and air that the existing resident's enjoy. C.
