1. The proposed request to permit a transit facility is properly one for which a
conditional use permit is authorized by Anaheim Municipal Code Section 18.14.030.040.0402
(Transit Facilities).
2. The proposed conditional use permit, as conditioned herein, would not adversely
affect the adjoining land uses and the growth and development of the area in which it is proposed
to be located because the transit facility would be a relocation of an existing transit facility
located approximately one quarter mile away, in a larger facility with more parking and services
than the existing station, and said transit facility would not be detrimental to the adjacent
properties.
3. The size and shape of the site for the use is adequate to allow the full development
of the proposed project in a manner not detrimental to the particular area or to the health and
safety.
4. The traffic generated by the proposed project will not impose an undue burden
upon the streets and highways designed and improved to carry the traffic in the area because the
proposed project includes street improvements to adequately serve the traffic generated by the
transit facility.
5. The granting of the conditional use permit and the variance under the conditions
imposed will not be detrimental to the health and safety of the citizens of the City of Anaheim as
the proposed project will be compatible with the surrounding area through conditions of approval
for the use and is not a health or safety risk to the citizens of the City of Anaheim.
WHEREAS, the City Council has reviewed said conditional use permit, and does
hereby find and determine that previously - certified Final Environmental Impact Report No. 343
together with the Addendum prepared in connection with the Anaheim Regional Transportation
Intermodal Center project are adequate to serve as the required environmental documentation for
said conditional use permit and satisfy all the requirements of the California Environmental
Quality Act; and that no further environmental documentation need be prepared for said
conditional use permit.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council, for the reasons
hereinabove specified does hereby grant Conditional Use Permit No. 2010 -05492 to permit a
transit facility.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council does hereby grant
Conditional Use Permit No. 2010 -05492 subject to the conditions of approval as stated in Exhibit

health, safety and general welfare of the citizens of the City of Anaheim. Extensions for further
time to complete conditions of approval may be granted in accordance with Section 18.60.170 of
the Anaheim Municipal Code. Timing for compliance with conditions of approval may be
amended by the Planning Director upon a showing of good cause provided (i) equivalent timing
is established that satisfies the original intent and purpose of the condition(s), (ii) the
-2-
modification complies with the Anaheim Municipal Code, and (iii) the applicant has
demonstrated significant progress toward establishment of the use or approved development.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that any amendment, modification or revocation
of this permit may be processed in accordance with Chapters 18.60.190 (Amendment to Permit
Approval) and 18.60.200 (City - Initiated Revocation or Modification of Permits) of the Anaheim
Municipal Code.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council does hereby find and
determine that adoption of this Resolution is expressly predicated upon applicant's compliance
with each and all of the conditions hereinabove set forth. Should any such conditions, or any
part thereof, be declared invalid or unenforceable by the final judgment of any court of
competent jurisdiction, then this Resolution, and any approvals herein contained, shall be
deemed null and void.

Code and any other applicable City, State and Federal regulations. Approval does not include
any action or findings as to compliance or approval of the request regarding any other applicable
