PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The Daniels Center Extension Project was originally approved by the Planning Commission on June 1, 2023, based on the analysis and findings provided in the staff report included as Attachment 1. The applicant is requesting consideration of a one-year extension to Site Plan and Design Review (SPC 21-101) and Minor Use application (UPN 21-102) for the development of a Chevron gas station with 10 fuel pumps, a 3,400 square foot Extra Mile Convenience store, a 2,300 square foot quick-service restaurant, and a drive-thru car wash.
PROJECT LOCATION
The Project is located at the northwest corner of South Airport Way and Daniels Street at 2125 Daniels Street. The Project site is surrounded by vacant parcels except for the commercial shopping centers on the south side. The site faces a regional commercial shopping center to the south, undeveloped General Commercial-zoned land to the north, and undeveloped General Commercial-zoned land to the east, and undeveloped General Commercial-zoned land to the west. The partially developed Family Entertainment Zone with Big League Dreams and Great Wolf Lodge are slightly further to the west.
PROJECT BACKGROUND
The Project site is currently undeveloped. On June 1, 2023, the Planning Commission approved Resolution 1628, which entailed adopting a modified Initial Study checklist pursuant to Section 15183 of the California Environmental Quality Act which determined the potential impacts of the project were adequate and would not have adverse effects to the closest nearby residences approximately 480 feet away. In addition, Resolution 1629 was passed, approving a Site Plan and Design Review and a Minor Use Permit. The project parcel is one of two parcels that have been subdivided by Tentative Parcel Map (SDN 20-25).
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Although this project meets the qualifications for Section 15332, In-Fill Development Projects, a Modified Initial Study/ Section 15183 Checklist was conducted to ensure there would not be any significant impacts to the closest nearby residences that are located approximately 475 feet away to the east, as well as to review potential traffic impacts. Extra care was taken via a health risk assessment, noise study, and traffic study to ensure that the neighbors would not be negatively impacted by this development.
Under Section 15183 of the CEQA Guidelines, when a project is consistent with the use and density established for a property under an existing general plan or zoning ordinance for which a city has already certified an EIR, no additional environmental review is required “except as might be necessary to examine whether there are project-specific significant effects which are peculiar to the project or its site.” The 15183 Checklist also included a health risk assessment, noise study, and a traffic analysis.
