Commission approves one‑on‑one personal training studio at 811 North Catalina with extended weekday hours
Summary
The Planning Commission approved a conditional use permit for a 1,046 sq ft one‑on‑one personal fitness studio at 811 N. Catalina (Suite 2022), limiting occupancy to a trainer and a single client at a time; the commission authorized weekday hours from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m.
The Planning Commission on Dec. 19 approved a conditional use permit for a one‑on‑one personal training studio in a 1,046‑square‑foot suite (Suite 2022) at 811 North Catalina Avenue.
Senior planner Steven Yang told the commission the applicant expects at most one trainer and one customer in the space at any time and proposed hours focused on mornings and evenings; staff recommended conditions that limit the number of customers and employees and ensure the activity remains an interior use within the suite.
Applicant Ron Spahn addressed commissioners and described the operation as personal training, rehabilitation and athletic conditioning, emphasizing one‑on‑one sessions rather than group classes. The applicant requested flexibility on hours; commissioners and staff agreed to revise conditions to allow operating hours from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m., Monday through Friday, to accommodate before‑ and after‑work training sessions.
Yang noted the property has substantial parking — a roof parking area plus surface spaces — and staff concluded the existing parking supply (approximately 271 spaces total on site) was adequate for the proposed low‑intensity use. The planning commission voted to approve the exemption declaration and CUP, with the revised weekday hours and the requirement that the use remain interior to Suite 2022. The vote was recorded by roll call with all present commissioners voting yes.
