The Planning Commission has reviewed and considered the information contained in the initial study and the negative declaration for Environmental Review No. 00-185 prepared with respect to this Project. The Planning Commission has, as a result of its consideration and the evidence presented at the hearings on this matter, determined that, as required pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") and the State CEQA Guidelines, a Negative Declaration adequately addresses the expected environmental impacts of this modification to conditional use permit no. 00-28.

Will the proposed use under the circumstances of the particular case be detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity? The previously approved service station and mini mart will provide additional service to the service station patrons and the adjacent business • community. The conditions of approval proposed require the market to maintain a safe environment as well as aesthetics of the site. C. Will the proposed use adversely affect the present economic stability or future economic development of properties surrounding the area? The mini mart will generate City tax revenue and employment in the community. During the hours proposed, the use provides services that complement surrounding business and as conditioned will not adversely affect economic development or stability of the area. D.

The proposed use will be in compliance with the applicable sections of Chapter 41 of the Municipal Code with an approved conditional use permit for the operation of a business between the hours of 12:00 (midnight) and 5:00 a.m. • E.
