1. The proposed use is permitted within the subject district pursuant to the
provisions of this section and complies with all the applicable provisions of this
title, the goals, and objectives of the Arroyo Grande general plan, and the
development policies and standards of the city.
The primary purpose of the Office Mixed Use (OMU) zoning district is to
`provide areas for the establishment of corporate, administrative, and medical
offices and facilities, commercial services that are required to support major
business medical development, and multi -family housing.' The proposed use
consists of office area as well as an apartment and is therefore consistent with
the stated purpose of the OMU zoning district.
2. The proposed use would not impair the integrity and character of the district in
which it is to be established or located.
The proposed use is consistent with other uses in the OMU zoning district,
which is comprised primarily of professional office uses, and therefore would
not impair the integrity or character of the OMU zoning district.
3. The site is suitable for the type and intensity of use or development that is
proposed.

The proposed use consists of office and residential, both of which are suitable
for the site, which is adjacent to similar office and residential uses. The site is
also suitable for the proposed intensity of use, due to its location within a
professional office corridor and proximity to complimentary services.
4. There are adequate provisions for water, sanitation, and public utilities and
services to ensure public health and safety.
The project will connect to existing utilities and will not affect public health and
safety.
5. The proposed use will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare
or materially injurious to properties and improvements in the vicinity.
There is nothing unusual about the proposed use that will be detrimental to the
public health, safety or welfare or materially injurious to properties and
improvements in the vicinity.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission of the City of
Arroyo Grande hereby approves Conditional Use Permit 06-005, with the above findings
