The adjacent zoning and land use characteristics: ADJACENT ZONING DESIGNATIONS AND LAND USES GENERAL PLAN ZONING CLASSIFICATION EXISTING LAND USE North Industrial M (Industrial) District Central Valley Kitchens South Industrial M (Industrial) District Vino Farms East Industrial Out of City Limits Lodi Memorial Cemetery R P Printing, Ventura West Industrial M (Industrial) District Distribution & Manufacturing 1 SUMMARY The applicant, Mr. Julio Hernandez & Ms. Adriana Oseguera, are proposing to open an open room personal fitness training studio within an existing tenant space at 271 S. Guild Avenue. This is their first physical facility, although they have worked in the industry for the past five years. Both owners are Certified Trainers and Certified Group Instructors. They have worked at In Shape and Crunch Fitness. They have an active social media platform where they create YouTube and Instagram training videos. Per the Lodi Zoning Code, operating a personal fitness training studio in the M (Industrial) zone require the approval of a conditional use permit. BACKGROUND The following sections describe the site and its regulatory setting: - General Plan and Zoning - Existing Land Use General Plan and Zoning This site is designated Industrial on both the General Plan Land Use Map and the Zoning Map, as shown below. Figure 1: General Plan Industrial Project Out of City Public Industrial The Industrial land use designation is described as follows: The Industrial classification includes a mix of heavy manufacturing, warehousing, general service, storage, and distribution activities. This category includes the 2  General Mills factory and existing uses along the railroad and east of SR-99. Industrial sites are available within and adjacent to the existing cluster of industrial uses in the east side of the city. The maximum FAR for this designation is 0.6. [Lodi General Plan Land Use Element] Figure 2: Zoning Map Out of City M Project PUB M The M (Industial) District is described as follows: M (Industrial) District. The M zoning district is applied to areas appropriate for a mix of heavy manufacturing, warehousing, general service, storage, and distribution activities. The maximum FAR is 0.6. The M zoning district is consistent with the industrial land use designation of the general plan. [Lodi Zoning Code] The site is just west of Lodi Memorial Cemetery. Existing Land Use There is an existing building on the site. The currently vacant suite being proposed for the business is the one closest to the street, as shown below. The tenant space is 2,850 sq ft in size. 3  Figure 3: Photos of the Building Inside of the gated area are manufacturing and industrial uses. Across the street to the east is a cemetery. Figure 4: Aerial Photo PROPOSED PROJECT / REQUEST The applicant is requesting approval of an open room personal fitness training studio to provide individual and group training sessions. The fitness studio will offer exercise and training without fixed mechanical equipment, similar to other studio-type uses such as dance, Zumba, martial arts, yoga, and other similar cardio and strength training activities. 4 The applicant also proposes to offer beverages, supplements, and similar items to their clientele for purchase before and after classes. The business’ proposed programs are designed to accommodate up to 20 individuals per class. The applicant’s proposed statement of operations is attached to this staff report. The applicant’s proposed hours of operation are: Monday to Sunday – 6:00 am to 10:00 pm. According to the applicant, peak hours of operation are expected to be from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm. The interior of the space is proposed to be primarily open, consisting of a reception area and exercise area. There are bathroom facilities for men and women. One ADA compliant shower facility is proposed. There are approximately seventeen (17) parking spaces provided (including one handicap space) along the northern façade of the building that are shared with the use next door. The use next door is a distribution and manufacturing business, which based on its square footage, requires 3 parking spaces, leaving 14 spaces for the proposed use. ANALYSIS Based on staff’s review, the proposed use is consistent with the activities allowed in the Zone M (industrial) with a Use Permit, including: open room cross training fitness studio and health related activities. Staff’s proposed conditions of approval would prohibit equipment such as weight machine, exercise bikes to ensure that the use is consistent with the M Zone. The proposed use, according to the Zoning Code, requires 14 parking spaces. In Section 17.32.040 Table 3-1 states that health/fitness clubs require 1 space per each 250sqft. The proposed space is 2,850sqft / 250sqft = 14 parking spaces. As noted above, sufficient parking is available for the proposed use per Zoning Code standards. USE PERMIT FINDINGS A Use Permit allows the comprehensive review of sensitive uses and ensures the proper integration of these uses into the community. These uses may only be suitable in specific locations, and only if such land uses are designed or constructed in a manner on a site that is consistent with zoning regulations and with the required findings for a Use Permit outlined in §17.40.040(F) of the City of Lodi Development Code. Use Permit review allows the opportunity to address any specific issues related to the proposal and to prevent or mitigate any potential impacts to the surrounding area through the imposition of conditions of approval. 5 Based on staff’s review, as discussed above, staff recommends that the Planning Commission can make the required findings, in accordance with Lodi Development Code § 17.40.040(F), to approve the requested Use Permit. The required findings, and staff’s recommended findings, are as follows: 1. The proposed use is allowed with a Use Permit within the applicable zoning district and complies with all applicable provisions of this Development Code. Comment: The existing building is zoned M (Industrial) District. “Studios—Art, dance, martial arts, music, etc.” is an allowed use subject to a use permit in this zone. The proposed fitness studio is consistent with this type of use, in that it involves the use of a space for teaching physical activity without extensive equipment. Staff has prepared recommended conditions of approval to ensure that the use will not be detrimental to the welfare of persons or properties working or residing in the vicinity. 2. The proposed use is consistent with the General Plan and any applicable specific plan. Comment: The General Plan land use designation for the project site is Industrial, which allows, “… includes a mix of heavy manufacturing, warehousing, general service, storage, and distribution activities.” The proposed fitness studio is consistent with the “general service” uses allowed in the Industrial land use category. 3. The location, size, design and operating characteristics of the use or development is compatible with and shall not adversely affect or be materially detrimental to the health, safety, or welfare of persons residing or working in the area, or be detrimental or injurious to public or private property or improvements. Comment: There are no proposed changes to the site and the proposed use (with approval of a conditional use permit) is consistent with the Zoning Code and the General Plan land use designation. The subject site is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the proposed use within a commercial area with all the required off-street parking. There is no evidence that the project will have a negative effect on the public health, safety, or welfare; or be materially injurious to persons, properties or improvements in the vicinity. 4. The location, size, design, and operating characteristics of the proposed use is compatible with the existing and future land uses in the vicinity. Comment: The existing use complies with all requirements as set forth for the issuance of a Use Permit, in that the site is adequate in size, shape and topography for the proposed use, consisting of an existing building. Second, the site is located in an industrial area that is accessible from public streets. Existing street networks are adequate in size and shape to accommodate the quantity and quality of traffic generated by the proposed use without any significant impacts to the street system. Third, the proposed use, with the implementation of staff’s recommended conditions of approval, will not have an adverse effect upon other uses in the vicinity. 5. The proposed project is in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the Lodi Environmental Review Guidelines. Comment: The project is found to be categorically exempt from CEQA review under CEQA Section 15061 (b) (3). This is the “common sense” exemption, which applies to projects where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment. There is no evidence that the project would result in significant environmental impacts. Staff recommends that the Commission can make the required findings to approve the Use Permit as proposed. In staff’s opinion, the proposed business would not produce any adverse impacts on the adjacent properties. 6 Proposed conditions of approval have been prepared to mitigate typical concerns related to the operation of the fitness studio. If concerns arise in the future and the City deems it necessary, the Use Permit can be reviewed by the Planning Commission to consider changes to the conditions of the Use Permit, or for revocation if needed. CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL: Staff has prepared recommended conditions of approval for the proposed use. The conditions are intended to ensure that the use operates within the parameters of the uses allowed in the M zoning district and within the capacity of the building and the site. Recommended conditions for Planning, Building and Fire are in the attached Resolution. Staff’s recommended conditions include: 1. Operate as an open fitness studio, focusing on activities which do not typically require the use of equipment. 2. Music and business related noise shall be maintained at a level that does not disturb neighboring tenants. 3. Hours of operation are limited to 6:00 am to 10:00 pm, 7 days a week. 4. Classes cannot exceed 20 individuals, not including employees. 5. Food, supplements and drinks may be sold to participants only. 6. Motion-sensing security lighting shall be provided in the outdoor vehicle parking area. 7. If the Max Occupancy is greater than 49, an Operational Permit will be required from the Fire Department. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT: The project is Categorically Exempt according to the California Environmental Quality Act, Article 19 §15061 (b) (3). This is the “common sense” exemption, which applies to projects as follows: “The activity is covered by the common sense exemption that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA.” [CEQA 15061(b)(3)] No significant environmental impacts are anticipated and no mitigation measures are required. PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE: Legal Notice for the Use Permit was published in the Lodi News Sentinel on Saturday, August 29, 2020. (15) Public hearing notices were sent to all property owners of record within a 300- foot radius of the project site as required by California State Law §65091 (a) 3. Public notice also was mailed to interested parties who expressed their interest of the project. RECOMMENDED MOTIONS Should the Planning Commission agree with staff’s recommendation, the following motion is suggested: “I move that the Planning Commission adopt a Resolution finding that the project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15061 (b) (3), and approving a Use Permit to allow a fitness studio in an existing tenant space at 271 S. Guild Avenue, subject to conditions of approval.” 7 ALTERNATIVE PLANNING COMMISSION ACTIONS • Approve the request with conditions as recommended by staff • Approve the request with revised or additional conditions • Deny the request • Continue the request to a future meeting Respectfully Submitted, Concur, Joann Martinez John R.
