as follows:
Section 1 : The City Council finds that the proposed project is Categorically Exempt as

Section 2 : The findings, in accordance with Section 17.48.070 of the Poway Municipal
Code (PMC) for the approval of Minor Conditional Use Permit 10 -05, a proposal to locate
an 8 -foot by 20 -foot metal storage container for storage of disaster preparedness
supplies in the City of Poway's Auto Storage Lot located at 13875 Kirkham Way, within
the South Poway Planned Community zone, are made as follows:
A. The proposed location size, design and operating characteristics of the proposed
metal storage container is in accord with the title and purpose of this title, the
purpose of the zone in which the site is located, the General Plan, and the
development policies and standards of the City in that the container is permitted
with the approval of a Minor Conditional Use Permit, and it is tan in color and is
sited within an enclosed lot so that it is screened from view from adjacent
properties.
B. The placement of the storage container will comply with the General Plan and
PMC, in that it will be consistent in location and scale with surrounding
development. Additionally, the container will be used for storage of emergency
preparedness supplies so it will be consistent and compatible with, and will not
adversely affect or be materially detrimental to, adjacent uses, buildings,

D. There are public facilities, services and utilities available to the site.
E. The storage container has been sited to comply with the General Plan and
PMC standards. An existing 8- foot -high masonry wall encloses the outdoor
storage lot so the container is screened from view from adjacent properties.
Therefore, there will be no harmful effect upon desirable neighborhood
characteristics.
F. The storage container will not result in a significant impact on the character or the
intensity of the transportation system in the vicinity. It is found to be consistent
with the Circulation Element of the General Plan in that its sole purpose is for
storage of emergency preparedness supplies.
G. The exterior design and tan color of the storage container will blend well with the
tan 8- foot -high masonry block screen wall that surrounds the site. Therefore, the
site is suitable for placement of the storage container.
H. The use involved has no hazardous materials or processes, nor does it
significantly affect natural resources. Therefore, there will not be significant
harmful effects upon environmental quality and natural resources.
There are no other relevant negative impacts of the use that cannot be mitigated.
J. The impacts, as described above, and the location, size, design and operating
characteristics of the use, and the conditions under which it operates or is
maintained will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare, or
materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity, nor be contrary
to the adopted General Plan.
