NOW, THEREFORE, THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF MOORPARK, DOES HEREBY RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1. Findings: Based upon the information set forth in the staff report(s), 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 proposed use is consistent with the intent and provisions of the city's General Plan, Zoning Ordinance, and other applicable regulations in that the sale of beer, wine, and alcoholic beverages for off-site consumption is an ancillary use to the approved food market, a use consistent with the General Plan and Zoning. B. The proposed use is compatible with both existing and permitted land uses in the area in that this is an approved food market where beer, wine and alcoholic beverages typically are sold. C. The proposed use is compatible with the scale, visual character, and design of surrounding development in that the use does not require any significant modifications to the exterior of the approved building. Resolution No. PC-2011-564 Page 2 D. The proposed use would not be obnoxious or harmful, or impair the utility of neighboring property or uses in that conditions are required to ensure proper control of the sale of beer, wine, and other alcoholic beverages. E. The proposed use would not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare in that conditions are required to ensure proper control of the sale of beer, wine and other alcoholic beverages for off-site consumption. F. The use will not result in a detrimental over-concentration of establishments selling alcoholic beverages in the area, as these sales are ancillary to the sale of other merchandise from this store. G. The use will serve a public convenience in that the sale of beer, wine and other alcoholic beverages for off-site consumption is an ancillary use to the primary use of the building as a discount department store with grocery sales. H. The use will not create the need for increased police services in that conditions are required to ensure proper control of the sale of beer, wine, and other alcoholic beverages for off-site consumption. I. The requested use at the proposed location will not adversely affect the economic welfare of the community. J. The exterior appearance of the structure will not be inconsistent with the external appearance of commercial structures already constructed or under construction on surrounding properties, or within the immediate neighborhood so as to cause blight, deterioration or substantially diminish property values within the neighborhood.
