Project Background The Project’s site was developed in 1978 with the existing office complex that encompasses eighteen (18) office buildings, on-site landscaping, and surface parking with a ratio of 3.8 parking spaces per 1,000 square feet of office space. The existing building is comprised of two units (2938 and 2932 S. Daimler Street). The immediately adjacent unit at 2932 S. Daimler Street is currently occupied by an office use. In May of 2023, the church applied for a certificate of occupancy for administrative office space, which is a use allowed by right in the P zoning district. On January 23, 2023, the Applicant submitted a development project application to the City for the change of use from office to a church. The Applicant subsequently submitted an application for CUP No. 2023-18 on July 24, 2023. On September 11, 2023, the Planning Commission held a public hearing for CUP No. 2023-18 and voted 6:1 (Ayes: Commissioners Benninger, Escamilla, Leo, Oliva, Pham, and Woo; Noes: Ramos) to deny the CUP request. On September 14, 2023, the Applicant submitted Appeal Application No. 2023-07, appealing the Planning Commission’s determination. On November 21, 2023, the City Council held a public hearing for Appeal Application No. 2023-07 and voted to uphold the decision by the Planning Commission to deny CUP No. 2023-18.
