PUBLIC HEARING ITEMS:
ITEM NO. 2 PACIFICA CHRISTIAN HIGH SCHOOL USE PERMIT (PA2023-0237)
Site Location: 1499 Monrovia Avenue, 883 West 15th
Street, 1515 Monrovia Avenue, 873 to 877 Production Place
SUMMARY: Pacifica Christian currently operates a high school and auxiliary campus with a
maximum student enrollment of 385 and a maximum staff of 50. To provide adequate
parking for students and staff, Pacifica Christian has off -site parking agreements with
two properties within the vicinity of the school. The school and off -site parking
agreements are authorized pursuant to the Conditional Use Permit (CUP) filed as
PA2023-0078. Condition of Approval No. 16 of the CUP requires the off -site parking
location of 873 to 877 Production Place be used only for warehousing and
administrative offices and prohibits students from using or accessing the site. The
Applicant is requesting that the condition be amended to remove the prohibition on
students accessing the site and allow it to be used as an athletic training facility for
student athletes, rather than warehousing. While students will be allowed to access
the site for after school athletic training purposes, no students will park at the site and
no school instruction will occur. In addition to the athletic training facility, the site will
continue to provide administrative offices and parking for Pacifica Christian staff. If
approved, this CUP would supersede the CUP filed as PA2023-0078.

Summary:
Pacifica Christian currently operates a high school and auxiliary campus with a maximum
student enrollment of 385 and a maximum staff of 50. To provide adequate parking for
students and staff, Pacifica Christian has off -site parking agreements with two properties
within the vicinity of the school. The school and off -site parking agreements are authorized
pursuant to the Conditional Use Permit (CUP) filed as PA2023-0078. Condition of Approval
No. 16 of the CUP requires the off -site parking location of 873 to 877 Production Place be
used only for warehousing and administrative offices and prohibits students from using or
accessing the site. The Applicant is requesting that the condition be amended to remove
1 of 3
the prohibition on students accessing the site and allow it to be used as an athletic training
facility for student athletes, rather than warehousing. While students will be allowed to
access the site for after school athletic training purposes, no students will park at the site
and no school instruction will occur. In addition to the athletic training facility, the site will
continue to provide administrative offices and parking for Pacifica Christian staff. If
