SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS

The applicant (Bl?m San Leandro) and property owner (Fairway Medical Plaza, LLC) are proposing a 13,015? square-foot medical cannabis dispensary with manufacturing and production kitchen within an existing industrial building at 1911 Fairway Drive. San Leandro Zoning Code Section 2-706.B.18 requires approval of a Conditional Use Permit prior to establishment of a Medical Cannabis Dispensary in the IG Industrial General District.

Staff believes that, with the recommended Conditions of Approval that pertain to parking and compliance with Chapter 4-33 of the San Leandro Municipal Code, the proposed medical cannabis dispensary with manufacturing and production kitchen uses would operate in an orderly manner on the property and would be compatible with adjacent commercial and industrial uses, without detriment or burden to the immediate area.

Staff recommends that the Board of Zoning Adjustments:

A) Adopt the California Environmental Quality Act categorical exemption;

B) Adopt the recommended Findings of Fact; and

C) Approve Conditional Use Permit PLN17-0023 subject to the attached recommended Conditions of Approval.

The Board's decision may be appealed to the City Council within 15 days in accord with the appeal process outlined under Article 28 of the Zoning Code.
