general and specific plan policies as well as with applicable zoning designation and
regulations; the proposed development occurs within city limits on a project site of no
more than five acres substantially surrounded by urban uses; the project site has no

SECTION 2. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FINDINGS: Based upon the
information set forth in the staff report(s), accompanying studies, and oral and written
public testimony, the City Council makes the following findings in accordance with City
of Moorpark, Municipal Code Section 17.44.040:
A. The proposed use of the facility as a non-profit recreational facility is consistent
with the provisions of the City's General Plan, Zoning Ordinance, and other
applicable regulations as conditioned in that the land is planned and zoned for
such uses, including special event uses of the intensity proposed and sufficient
security will be provided.
B. The proposed use is compatible with both existing and permitted land uses in the
surrounding area, in that the ongoing use of the facility, including special events
(with alcohol service) complements the surrounding uses and is a use that is not
unanticipated within an existing gymnasium building originally constructed for
institutional and assembly uses.
C. The proposed use is compatible with the scale, visual character, and design of
surrounding properties, in that the use does not require modification to the
exterior of the approved building.
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 safety
inside and outside of the facility during the special events with uniform security.
E. The proposed use would not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety,
convenience, or welfare, in that the facility will be operated as approved and
rented for special events where uniformed security will be required.
SECTION 3. CITY COUNCIL APPROVAL: The City Council hereby approves
Conditional Use Permit No. 2014-08 subject to the special and standard Conditions of
Approval included in Exhibit A (Special and Standard Conditions of Approval), attached
