in size and shape to accommodate the parking and limited non-perma-
nent features as prescribed in this Resolution, or as is otherwise
required in order to integrate said use with the surrounding area;
and
Section 3. That the proposed site is adequately served by:

access road is sufficient for the approximately 30 cars
maximum which would be at the site.

flict with the General Plan in that:
