THE CITY OF ARROYO GRANDE PROVIDING AN

IN THE GENERAL COMI��RCIAL DISTRICT
WHEREAS, the Development Code was adopted by the City Council on May 14, 1991,
and became effective on June 13, 1991; and
. WHEREAS, Section 9-01.110 (G)(3) of the Development Code provides the Planning
Commission with the authority to clarify ambiguities in the Title; and

the use category of "auto-related repair and service", which include automobile and light truck
repair, automobile service station, and tire sales and service, are not permitted in the General
Commercial District; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has received a request for interpretation of
whether a"quick lube" business that provides oil changes and replacement of small vehicle parts
can operate in the General Commercial District; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission, after due research arld deliberation finds that:
1. The Anoyo Grande Development Code does not allow said use in the General
Commercial District because the primary purpose of the General Commercial District
is to provide for the general shopping needs of area residents and workers with a
variety of retail and commercial services. Furthermore, auto-related repair and
service is specifically limited to the Highway Commercial District in order to provide
an area for auto-related uses along major travel routes. Therefore, the proposed use
is not similar to other uses allowed in the General Commercial District:
NOW, TFIEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission of the City
of Anoyo Grande hereby makes the interpretation that the business described above is NOT a
permitted use in the General Commercial District.
