CONCLUSIONS 01' LAW
17
1. The City of Auburn Zoning Ordinance sets forth a series
of criteria which must be established befon! Conditional
Use Permit can be granted. The first of these criteria
of the Conditional Use Permit will have no more of an
adverse effect on the health, safety, or comfort of
persons living or working in the area than would a use
permitted outright. The proposal is on the edge of a
mUlti-family neighborhood and is located adjacent to
commercial activities. Since the lot is landscaped and
fenced and is relatively obscured frclm adjoining
properties it appears that the use would n01: have a more
adverse effect on the area than would any olther multiple
family use which would be permitted outright.

The proposal must be in accord with the goals, policies
and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan. The proposal
is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan in that the
