Section 1. That the above recitations are true and correct.
Section 2. Findings. The Planning Commission, in approving Planning Application
No. PLUP23-0005 makes the following findings, to wit:
1.The proposed location of the conditional use is consistent with the objectives of the Zoning
Ordinance and the purpose of the district in which the site is located.
The proposed location is within the C-N, Neighborhood Commercial District. This district is
intended to accommodate businesses that provide goods and services to nearby residential
neighborhoods, generally within an area of a one-mile radius or less. Typical uses found in
this district include limited commercial offices and retail stores and service establishments
that are compatible with, and dependent upon nearby residential developments. The
proposed tattoo studio is located in a multi-tenant commercial building and is compatible
with existing "personal services" businesses that occupy these tenant spaces (Barber/Beauty
Shop).
