The granting of the variance for a reduction in parking will not be detrimental to surrounding properties as conditions of approval, such as a block wall and landscaping, are proposed to mitigate impacts to the residential uses to the north. As conditioned, the additional off-site parking spaces will minimize the impacts to surrounding properties. D. That the granting of a variance will not adversely affect the General Plan of the City. The granting of the variance will not adversely affect the City's General Plan in any way as a goal of the General Plan is to promote a balance of land uses that address basic community needs.
