CITY COUNCIL, CITY OF SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, STATE OF CALIFORNIA
A RESOLUTION OF CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SOUTH SAN
FRANCISCO TO DENY GP-98-054, ZA-98-054, RZ-98-054, AND UP-
98-054 WHICH WOULD HAVE ALLOWED A FIVE ACRE MINI-
STORAGE FACILITY WITH A RESIDENT CARETAKER UNIT
WHEREAS, the South San Francisco Planning Commission held a duly noticed public
hearing on November 18, 1999 and December 16, 1999; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission by a 3-2 vote, constituting a majority of the
quorum that voted on this matter, supported a motion to approve all of the elements of the
application including the General Plan Amendment; and
WHEREAS, California Government Code section 65354 provides that a recommendation
for approval [of a general plan amendment] shall be made by the affirmative vote of not less than
a majority of the total membership of the commission; and
WHEREAS, the effect of the vote therefore was to recommend approval of the single
family subdivision portion of the application and to simultaneously fail to recommend approval
of the requested mini-storage facility, which was dependent on the General Plan Amendment;
and
WHEREAS, on January 26, 2000, the City Council held a properly noticed public
hearing to consider the recommendations of the Planning Commission and take action on the
requested approvals.
NOW THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of South San Francisco makes the
following findings in denying the request for approval of a General Plan Amendment, Rezoning,
Zoning Amendment and Use Permit for a 5-acre mini storage facility with resident caretaker's
unit at the southeasterly corner of Oakmont and Westborough Boulevard, based on the entire
record, including without limitation, public testimony, staff reports, materials submitted by the
City of South San Francisco Planning Commission, building plans dated September 24, 1999
prepared by The Paul Davis Partnership and landscape plans dated 8/2/99 prepared by Rose
Associates; Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration No. 98-054; and minutes of the
October 1999 Design Review Board meeting:
1. The project is inconsistent with the current General Plan designation of low
density residential and specifically with General Plan Policies 3.11-I-1, which allow only
residential development on the site and the surrounding property south of Westborough
Boulevard.
2. The project is inconsistent with the standards and requirements of the City's
Zoning Ordinance and with the uses allowed within the R-1EP Single Family Residential,
which allow only residential development on the site and the surrounding property south
of Westborough Boulevard.
3. A Negative Declaration has been prepared for the project in accordance with the
provisions of CEQA.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that based upon the above findings and
recitals the City Council of the City of South San Francisco hereby:
1. Denies GP-98-054, ZA-98-054, RZ-98-054, UP-98-054, which pertain to the
proposed self storage based upon the finding and reasons set forth above.
This resolution shall become effective immediately upon its passage and adoption.
