RECOMMENDATION:
Recommended Action
COMMUNITY COUNCIL: Full Cycle Deferral.
PLANNING COMMISSION: Approval with Conditions.
PLANNING STAFF: Approval with a Condition.
STAFF ANALYSIS: Because it is located in the center of a large, existing cemetery, the proposed mausoleum is not expected to have any effect on adjoining properties. The proposed mausoleum would not generate any nuisances in the form of noise, smoke, odor, dust, vibration, or similar effects, nor would it change the hours of operation of the cemetery in which it is located. It is not expected to significantly increase traffic to and from the site or have any noticeable effect on the surrounding areas. Therefore, the Department of Planning and Sustainability recommends "Approval with a condition".
PLANNING COMMISSION VOTE: Approval with a Condition 8-1...
