WHEREAS, an application for a conditional use permit was submitted on behalf of the owner of certain real property, located at 5170 Commerce Drive, in the City of Baldwin Park, described more particularly in the application on file with the City Planner; and WHEREAS, the application was to allow a processing center for recyclables within the Industrial Zone; and WHEREAS, on February 26, 1992, the Planning Commission held a duly notice public hearing on and voted to approve the application; and WHEREAS, Baldwin Industries Properties, Ltd. filed a timely appeal of the Planning Commission's decision to the City Council; and WHEREAS, a duly noticed public hearing was held on said application and appeal by the City Council on April 1, 1992, NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BALDWIN PARK DOES HEREBY RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1: FINDINGS. Based upon the evidence presented, including applicable staff reports and each member of the City Council being familiar with the property, it is hereby determined that the applicant has failed to show, to the reasonable satisfaction of the City Council, that the proposed project will not have an adverse effect upon uses adjacent to the subject property in that: 1) Adjacent properties have been transformed from abandoned junk yards, abandoned truck repair facilities, and from dumping grounds for refuse and trash into commercial and industrial warehouse-type buildings with tenants such as Alcoa, Bell & Howell, Federal Express, Gerber, TRW, Taylor Corp., and Home Savings of America. The proposed use would allow close to 50 daily truck trips via Stewart Avenue to the facility, where various recycleables would be dumped, sorted, compacted and baled into various categories, and then shipped in trucks to recycling facilities and dumps. Such a use with the concomitant presence of the trucks along Stewart Avenue would be inconsistent with the adjacent high-quality industrial park in terms of noise, traffic, aesthetics and image.

SECTION 2; DENIAL OF PERMIT Conditional Use Permit CP-510 is therefore denied. Because of this denial, the City Council makes no determination with regard to the Negative Declaration for this project other than to disapprove the conclusions therein that there are minimal potential adverse impacts from the proposed use on adjacent properties.
