OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM APPROVING
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2013 -05690
AND MAKING CERTAIN FINDINGS IN CONNECTION THEREWITH
(DEV2013- 00087)
(907 SOUTH BEACH BOULEVARD)
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Anaheim (herein referred to as
the "Planning Commission ") did receive a verified petition to approve Conditional Use Permit
No. 2013 -05690 to permit a community center and banquet hall within an existing commercial
building, including the on -site consumption of alcoholic beverages (herein referred to as the
"Proposed Project ") for that certain real property located at 907 South Beach Boulevard in the
City of Anaheim, County of Orange, State of California, as generally depicted on the map
attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by this reference (the "Property "); and
WHEREAS, the Property, consisting of approximately 1.28 acres, is developed with a
13,600 square foot commercial building. The Property is located in and subject to the
regulations and development standards of the General Commercial (C -G) Zone. The Anaheim
General Plan designates the Property for Corridor Residential land uses; and
WHEREAS, this Planning Commission did hold a public hearing at the Civic Center
in the City of Anaheim on February 24, 2014 at 5:00 p.m., notice of said public hearing having
been duly given as required by law and in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 18.60 of the
Anaheim Municipal Code (herein referred to as the "Code "), to hear and consider evidence for
and against proposed Conditional Use Permit No. 2013 -05690 and to investigate and make
findings and recommendations in connection therewith; and
WHEREAS, as the lead agency under the California Environmental Quality Act
(Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq.; herein referred to as "CEQA "), the Planning
Commission finds and determines that the proposed project is within that class of projects which
consist of the repair, maintenance, and /or minor alteration of existing public or private structures
or facilities, involving negligible or no expansion of use beyond that existing at the time of this
determination, and that, therefore, pursuant to Section 15301 of Title 14 of the California Code
of Regulations, the proposed project will not cause a significant effect on the environment and is,
therefore, categorically exempt from the provisions of CEQA; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission, after due inspection, investigation and study
made by itself and in its behalf, and after due consideration of all evidence and reports offered at
said hearing with respect to the request to permit a community center and banquet hall within an
existing commercial building, including the on -site consumption of alcoholic beverages, has
determined that Conditional Use Permit No. 2013 -05690 should be approved for the following
reasons, does find and determine the following facts:
- 1 - PC2014 -023
I . The proposed request to permit the Proposed Project in the General Commercial
(C -G) Zone, under the conditions imposed, is properly one for which a conditional use permit is
authorized by Section 18.08.030.010 of the Code; and
2. The proposed conditional use permit to permit the Proposed Project, under the
conditions imposed, would not adversely affect the adjoining land uses and the growth and
development of the area because the applicant proposes to construct an 8 -foot high wall along
the west property line to provide an effective buffer between the proposed use and the single
family homes in the rear. In addition, the applicant will monitor the rear parking lot to deter
loitering and alcohol consumption outside the facility; no activities will occur outside of the
building; the doors will remain closed at all times; and the all banquet events will end no later
than 10:00 p.m.; and
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 either the particular area nor to the health,
safety and general welfare of the public because the Proposed Project complies with all
applicable development standards, including the required number of parking spaces; and
4. The traffic generated by the proposed project will not impose an undue burden
upon the streets and highways designed and improved to cant' the traffic in the area because the
traffic generated by this use will not exceed the anticipated volumes of traffic on the surrounding
streets and there will be adequate parking on -site; and
5. The granting of the conditional use permit under the conditions imposed will not
be detrimental to the health and safety of the citizens of the City of Anaheim and will provide a
land use that is compatible with the surrounding area.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission does hereby
approve Conditional Use Permit No. 2013 - 05690, contingent upon and subject to the conditions
of approval described in Exhibit B attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference,
which are hereby found to be a necessary prerequisite to the proposed use of the Property in
order to preserve the 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 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
modification complies with the 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 Code.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Planning Commission 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 condition, 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.
-2- PC2014 -023

the proposed request only to the extent that it complies with the 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 ordinance, regulation or
requirement.
