RESOLUTION NO. 184 A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SEAL BEACH RECOMMENDING AMENDMENT OF ORDINANCE 628 (ZONING) TO INCLUDE THE NUMBER OF PARKING SPACES REQUIRED FOR AUTOMOBILE SERVICE STATION USE. WHEREAS. in the matter of the number of parking spaces required for "Automobile Service Station" use the Planning Commission of the City of Seal Beach does report as follows: 1. Section 1710 of Ordinance 628 does not specifically state the required number of on-site parking spaces required for "Automobile Service Station" use. 2. Normal determination under existing code is Section 1710-18. Retail stores. 1 space for each 300 square feet of gross floor area. 3. A public hearing on this matter was held on November 15. 1967. WHEREAS. the Planning Commission findings are as follows: 1. The Retail Stores category does not adequately cover the parking needs situation for the "Automobile Service Station" use. 2. This use is completely geared to the servicing of automobiles and generates many of them on site. 3. Average service station operation usually requires a minimum of 3 on-duty employees during peak business periods. Many good business locations require more. There is usually one or two company owned vehicles located at a station (for deliveries. emergency road service. loaning. etc.) For each service bay there is a need for 2 outside parking spaces to take care of "waiting for service" and "service completed" situations. 4. Section 1710-1.1 should be inserted in Ordinance 628 as follows: "1.1 Automobile Service Stations. 5 for each service station. plus 2 additional for each service bay (lubrication. wheel alignment. etc.).
