April 22, 2025 - PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES APPROVE 2. May 2025- PLANNING PROJECT STATUS RECEIVE AND FILE PUBLIC HEARING 3. #23-18 – PURE LIFE PILATES – CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT AND DESIGN REVIEW AT 6130 HORSESHOE BAR ROAD, APN 043-100-043 The Town of Loomis has received application #23-18 from applicant Kristi Jackson of PureLife Properties LLC for a Conditional Use Permit and Design Review for a proposed pilates studio and site improvements on a 0.37-acre parcel located at 6130 Horseshoe Bar Road, Loomis, CA 95650 – APN 043-100-043. The property is located across from the Raley’s shopping center, specifically Taco Bell, south Mail Biz, and is north of the Placer County Sheriff Substation and Ideal Body Center (Figure 1). The property is zoned (CC) Central Commercial and designated "Town Center Commercial - TC" in the General Plan. There is an existing vacant single-family residence, detached garage, and outbuilding on the property, of which the residence would be repurposed as a pilates studio and the garage and outbuilding, as well as the screened patio, would be removed and replaced with a parking lot to serve the studio. Accessible pathways and frontage improvements are proposed as well as landscaping. A Conditional Use Permit is required even though a pilates studio is an allowed use in the CC zone because the current residential structure would be converted to commercial use and the new construction associated with a commercial parking lot requires a use permit per Zoning Code Section 13.26.040 Table 2-6 note 5 for the CC zone. Design Review is requested to address the creation of the associated parking area, rear access driveway, landscaping, frontage improvements and new signage. The proposed project, if granted a conditional use permit and design review approval is consistent with the General Plan and the Zoning Ordinance, and is Categorically Exempt under CEQA Section 15303 c. RECOMMENDATION 1. Conduct a public hearing and receive public input regarding the project; and 2. Find the project is exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act under Section 15303 of the CEQA Guidelines (Class 3: New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures) 3. Adopt Resolution #25-04 approving the conditional use permit and design review for the project, per the findings in Exhibit A, subject to the conditions of approval in Exhibit B, and as depicted in Exhibit C.
