project would be developed 1n an eXlst1ng urban settIng on
Santa MonIca Boulevard, a commercial street wlth a number of
eXlstlng automoblle dealershIps and other commerclal uses,
that an analysls was provlded of the potentlal cumulatlve
effects of the proJect by provldlng a 11St of past, present,
and reasonably antlclpated future proJects producing related
or cumulatlve lmpacts and by provldlng an analysls of
potentlal cumulaclve effects of those proJects and by

Development ReVlew Permlt FIndlngs
1. The development is conSIstent wlth the flndlngs and purpose
of Ord1nance 1321 ln that a Development Review permlt has
been applIed for and has been evaluated for conslstency wlth
all of the Elements of the General Plan and the Munlclpal
Code as further set forth below.
- 2 -
---------~-------- ------- ----- ----- --- ----- -- ----- - --- --
2. The physlcal locatlon and placement of proposed structures
on the Slte are compatlble wlth and relate harmonlously to
surroundlng sites and nelghborhoods ln that the proJect wlll
conform to the property development standards of 54 feet and
3.0 Floor Area Ratlo for new full SerlJlce automoblle
dealershlps contalned 1n POI1CY 1.6.2 of the Land Use
Element, other standards of the General Plan and
requ1rements of the Munic1pal Code.
3. The eXlst1ng and/or proposed rlghts-of-way and fac111tles
for both pedestrlan and autornoblle trafflc wlll be adequate
to accommodate the antlc1pated results of the proposed
development lncludIng off-street parkIng faCIlItIes and
access thereto 1n that the Flnal In1t1al Study concludes
that levels of serVlce for key lntersectlons wlll remaln
wlthln acceptable limlts, sldewalks and pedestrlan amenltles
wlll be provlded, and parklng sufflC1.ent to meet 100% of
actual demand wlll be provlded on slte.
4. The eXlstlng and/or proposed publlC and/or prlvate health
and safety facllltles (includlng, but not llmited to,
san1tatlon, sewers, storm dralns, flre protectlon devlces,
protectlve serVlces, and publlC utllltles) wlll be adequate
to accommodate the antlclpated results of the proposed
development in that the proJect lS located along a fully
developed seetlon of Santa Monlca Boulevard wlth all
customary publlC serVlces ln place and the Flnal InItial
Study concludes that there wlll be no slgn1flcant adverse
effects related to health and safety.
5. The proposed development 1S conslstent wlth the General plan
of the Clty of Santa Monlca and the ZonIng Ordlnance In that
the proJect wlll conform to the helght, bulk, use and urban
design pol1cles for the Santa Monlca Boulevard auto
dealershIps as speclfled In the Land Use Element of the
General Plan, requlrements of other General Plan Elements,
and conform to the approprIate C4 standards contalned In the
Zonlng OrdInance. The proJect conforms to the 54' heIght
lImlt set by POllCY 1.6.2 of the Land Use Element and to the
3.0 Floor Area Ratlo (FAR) Ilmltatlon also establIshed by
POlICY 1.6.2 ln that the unlque comblnat10n of uses 1n the
proJect, WhlCh places car storage and parkl.ng uses on upper
levels of the structure, produces an equlvalent bulk and
lntenslty of use for thlS proJect as would placement of car
storage and parkIng 1n the basement and serV1ce uses on an
upper floor. It IS unreasonable to InSIst that a reversal
of upper and lower floors for thIS project would be
necessary, SInce there would be no dIfference 1n bulk or
lntenslty of use for thlS proJect. Slnce these aspects are
the obJectlves of the FAR lImIt, the proJect's conflgur-
atIon of uses and floor area lS conslstent wlth the lntent
of the Land Use Element FAR provlslons. Further, the
exclUSIon of the roof car storage and parklng area from the
FAR calculatlon 1S also conslstent wlth the Land Use

instItutional, Industrial, recI:"eatlonal, and commerCial
uses contributing to the broad diversity of the City~
b. ObJective 1.2 WhiCh calls for ensuring the
compatibility of land uses, with particular concern for
protecting reSIdential neIghborhoods, In that the
primary actIvIty areas of the proposed proJect would
occur \H thin enclosed areas of the bUIldIng, that the
car storage use WhICh occupIes considerable space

with mInimal adverse effects on adJacent reSidential
uses, that a l7-foot rear setback is provided as a
buffer and transitIon area between the proposed
bUIlding and the adJacent apartment bUildIng, that
landscapIng and bUIldIng setbacks further create a

access of major publIC space by establishIng a bUIldIng
volume "envelope," conSIstent WIth the allowable
development potentIal for a dIstrIct as defIned by
floor area ratIO, In that the project prOVIdes deSIgn
features includIng setbacks, landscaping, and
varIatIons In bUIldIng materIals WhICh contribute to
the mInImIzatIon of perceIved bUIldIng mass, and that

and the adJacent resIdent~al use;
k. POlICY 3.3.2 WhICh calls for lImIting curb cuts,
locatIng parking behind bUIldIngs or below grade and
encouragIng vehIcle access from alleys and SIde streets
when traffIC intrUSIon Into adJacent reSIdentIal areas
IS mlnImlzed, In that curb cuts for the project are
lImIted to those necessary to prOVIde access to the
proJect, that parkIng is prOVIded behInd the bUIldIng
and WIthIn enclosed areas of the bUIldIng, that vehicle

access IS provIded VIa 18th Street and the alley to
mInImIze adverse CIrculatIon Impacts on Santa MonIca
Boulevard, and that the access to and cIrculatIon
system of the proJect IS deSIgned to minImIze traffIC
Intr:uSlon Into the reSIdentIal neIghbor:hood:

7. The proJect IS speCIfIcally conSIstent WIth the requlI:ements
of the NOise Element of the General Plan In that no eVIdence
has been presented that the proJect would produce
slgnlflcant nOIse Impacts and that by prOVIdIng a buffer
between Santa MonIca Boulevard and adJacent reSidentIal
areas, the project may reduce eXIstIng nOIse levels
experIenced by adjacent reSIdentIal areas WhICh are caused
by large traffIC volumes on Santa MonIca Boulevard.
8 . In developIng ItS General Plan, IncludIng but not lImIted to
