NOTICE OF ACTION GRANTING SPECIAL PERMIT
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT APPLICATION NO. P23-03592
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Director of the Planning and Development Department , in accordance with Special Permit Procedure of the Fresno Municipal Code (FMC) Section 15-5009, has approved Conditional Use Permit Application No. P23-03592, which was filed by Kevin Gilio of A-1 Auto Electric and pertains to the 0.26 acres located at 2345 Stanislaus Street, Fresno, CA 93721. The applicant proposes to expand their legal non -conforming Auto/Vehicle Repair (Major) land use into a vacant building across the street that was previously occupied by “Pro Auto” Auto/Vehicle Repair (Major) land use. The project also includes a determination that the proposed project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) through Class 2 Categorical Exemption. The parcel is zoned DTN (Downtown – Neighborhoods – Activity Class C). The special permit has been granted subject to compliance with the Conditions of Approval, dated April 23, 2024.
*This document is available for review at the Planning and Development Department, located at 2600 Fresno Street, 3
rd Floor, Fresno, California 93721.
Pursuant to Section 15-404-B of the FMC (Expansion of a Legal Non- Conforming Use). A Legal Non- Conforming use shall not be expanded unless a Conditional Use Permit is granted for such expansion.
Prior to issuance of a Conditional Use Permit, it must be determined that at least one of the following three circumstances exists:
1. The resultant use and/or project design will reduce current adverse impacts on adjacent properties and/or on the general public;
2. The resultant use and/or project design will aid in the preservation of a historic resource; or
3. The expansion of the use or the enlargement of a structure housing a non- conforming use is necessary to comply with a requirement imposed by law for the operation of the particular use, including, but not limited to, regulations for disabled access or seismic retrofit.
The applicant’s request conforms with Option 1 circumstance. The building is entirely run down and has become abandoned and vacant since 2019 due to the pandemic. Currently the location has become a gathering spot for unhoused individuals doing illegal act ivities. In order to deter this type of activity, the expansion of A-1 Auto Electric into the abandon building can immediately add 5 (five) to 10 (ten) jobs which will significantly improve the quality of the building and area. As mentioned above, the building was previously occupied by Pro Auto which previously shared the same use ( Auto/Vehicle Repair (Major) land use as what is now being proposed Auto/Vehicle Repair (Major) land use.
The Conditional Use Permit will not become effective until 15 days from the date the permit is granted in order to allow time for any interested parties to file an appeal.
NOTE: A Notice of Intent to Take Action (Neighborhood Notification) was sent to surrounding property owners pursuant to the requirements of Section 15-5007 of the FMC on January 31, 2024.
In the event you wish to appeal the Director's decision, you may do so by filing a written appeal with the Director by email to [email protected] and cc [email protected]. The appeal must include the appellant's interest in, or relationship to, the subject property, the decision or action appealed, specific reason(s) why the appellant believes the decision or action should not be upheld.
ANY WRITTEN appeal must be submitted to this office prior to close of business on May 8, 2024.
