WHEREAS, the applicant, Tom Edwards, filed Planning Application No. PLUP19-0006
for a Conditional Use Permit for the property located at 5625 State Farm Drive (APN 143-021-

WHEREAS, Planning Application No. PLUP19-0006 was processed in the time and
manner prescribed by State and local law;
WHEREAS, public hearing notices were mailed to all property owners within a 300 foot
radius of the subject property and to all agencies and interested parties as required by California

public hearing in the Community Voice;
WHEREAS, on February 13, 2020, the Planning Commission reviewed Planning
Application No. PLUP19-0006 during a scheduled public meeting at which time interested persons
had an opportunity to testify either in support or opposition to the project; and,
WHEREAS, at the February 13, 2020 Planning Commission meeting, upon hearing and

NOW, THEREFORE, THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
ROHNERT PARK DOES RESOLVE, DETERMINE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. That the above recitations are true and correct.
Section 2. Factors considered. The Planning Commission, in approving Planning
Application No. PLUP19-0006 makes the following factors, to wit:
1. That the proposed location of the condition use is in accord with the objectives of the City
of Rohnert Park Zoning Ordinance and the purposes of the district in which the site is
located.
Criteria Satisfied: The I-L zoning district supports a broad range of intensive activities that
are meant to contain noise, illumination, and traffic. Due to the limited nature of the
proposed events, the I-L district can support the intensified use on an infrequent basis. As
well, the regular catering is limited in size and shall be contained with conditions to a small
space within the parking lot. The conditions provided herein shall ensure that the purpose
of the I-L district will be maintained.

Reso 2020-02
2. That the proposed location of the conditional use and the conditions under which it is
operated or maintained will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare, or
materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity.
Criteria Satisfied: The project, as conditioned, will not have a negative effect on the public
health, safety or welfare; or be materially injurious to properties or improvements in the
vicinity. The applicant shall be required to secure all necessary permits from the State to
allow the operation. In addition, conditions will be imposed by the use permit that should
mitigate any concerns related to the facility with regard to building, fire and life safety.
3. That the proposed conditional use will comply with each of the applicable provisions of
Title 17 of the City of Rohnert Park Municipal Code.
Criteria Satisfied: The project will comply with all applicable Zoning Ordinance standards.
Section 4. Environmental Clearance. The project is categorically exempt from the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), pursuant to Public Resources Code
Section 15301 (Class 1 – Existing Facilities).
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the Planning Commission does hereby
approve Planning Application No. PLUP19-0006 subject to the following conditions:
1. The Planning department shall be notified of all proposed events on site at least two
weeks prior to the event occurring.
2. Proposed events shall not occur during times where other on-site businesses would be
open.
3. The site shall be returned to its original condition after any events or catering. Clean up
of the event area shall occur immediately following the event.
4. The site shall be kept free of any litter or debris.
5. Any heat-producing machines, such as barbeques, grills, etc. shall be operated 10 feet
from any structure or flammable material. A fire extinguisher shall be present at the site

6. Prior to the expansion of any alcoholic beverage sales or consumption on site, the
applicant shall obtain the required alcoholic use permit (s) as required by Chapter 8.34
(Use Permits for Alcoholic Beverage Establishments) of the Municipal Code.
7. The applicant shall provide evidence of approval for a “host facility” with the Sonoma
County Department of Environmental Health & Safety.
8. Catering shall not obstruct any traffic or block any parking spaces.
9. The applicant must comply with the City of Rohnert Park Municipal Code Chapter 17.12
