1 <br /> was picking up something and it wasn't a situation that they were, you know, trying to <br /> use the area for the, what we'll call a baseyard use. <br /> ALAMEDA: Mr. Director? <br /> YUEN: Yeah, could I just jump in with-. <br /> ALAMEDA: Sure. <br /> YUEN: With some clarification o fpermitted uses on the site. The CN <br /> rezone would permit a number o f things, including office use, including retail <br /> establishments. And there's quite a range o f things that will be permitted. It would not <br /> allow a commercial parking lot and garage. And it would not permit, there are other <br /> similar kinds o f uses. The word, the exact term for a bus baseyard is not in the Zoning <br /> Code. Another close thing is transportation terminals. So you can't, you can have <br /> vehicles that are, you can park vehicles that are accessory to a permitted use. For <br /> example, i fyou had a retail establishment you could have a delivery van or you could <br /> have a truck which you use to pick up things from the dock to bring to your store. But <br /> say you had an office or a trucking company in a CN zone, you couldn't park all the <br /> trucks for the trucking company in the parking lot. A CN zone, the purpose of, it's useful <br /> sometimes to look at the purposes, besides the permitted uses. But it's commercial <br /> activities which shall be such a size and shape as will accommodate a compact shopping <br /> center which supplies goods and services to a residential or working population for a <br /> frequent need or convenience basis. This district is distinguished from a central <br /> commercial district which provides general business and broad services to a city or a <br /> region. So the actual, you know, a baseyard for parking buses, a trucking parking area, is <br /> potentially a CV zone, potentially a CG, potentially a, but best actually, best is in an ML <br /> zone. And they do have a parking area or they do have a baseyard area on Silva Street on <br /> an ML zone. <br /> Now that being said, we had a discussion, and I think Mr. Lim understands that, and that <br /> they would be parking the buses elsewhere. But then we had a discussion about the fact <br /> that they live on the property and they have vans that they also registered. And why <br /> don't you talk about that for minute. <br /> ALAMEDA: Mr. Lim? <br /> LIM: Right now when you go to the property you will see two, I think <br /> they're 10- or 12-passenger vans. They're like, you know, like one o f those white vans <br /> that you see out here, the delivery vans. And those are owned one by Dien Nekoba and <br /> one by Cindy Nekoba, her daughter. So they use those for personal, you know, go to the <br /> store and those types o f things; and then part-time they use those for passenger vans for <br /> the tours i fthey're needed. The most, I guess the biggest, the largest bulk o f their <br /> business comes in off o f that mini bus that they have now stored down at Silva Street. <br /> There's, I think, five o f them at the present time. <br /> Manning Dept, 23 <br /> Exhibit <br />
