Code standards for parking lots and parking lot landscaping; the parking plan has also been<br />
revised to address Traffic & Transportation staff's concerns regarding the driveway width and<br />
previously proposed angle parking back-up area. Lastly, Section 4.43 of the Noise Element notes<br />
that potential noise impacts are controlled through the enforcement of the Noise Ordinance. It<br />
states that "In general, the City's Noise Ordinance is an excellent tool for controlling noise<br />
generated on private property throughout the City." The Noise Ordinance regulates noise that<br />
may be associated with a such a commercial use, including, but not limited to loud and unusual<br />
noises, loud vehicles (on private property), and radios/stereos. Therefore, the car rental use is<br />
consistent with the general plan and zoning for the South Brand commercial area, given that the<br />
car rental and sales use is complementary to other uses in the area and that the use variance has<br />
been approved by the Planning Commission based on the required findings (see Exhibit 4).<br />
RECOMMENDATION:<br />
Given the analysis of the required findings summarized above, it is recommended that the Environmental<br />
Planning Board approve the Design Development application.<br />
