A RESOLUTION OF THE ANAHEIM PLANNING COMMISSION
APPROVING CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2014 -05748 AND
MAKING CERTAIN FINDINGS IN CONNECTION THEREWITH
(DEV2014- 00076)
(1665 SOUTH BROOKHURST STREET)
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Anaheim (the "Planning
Commission ") did receive a verified petition to approve Conditional Use Permit No. 2014 -05748
to establish a convalescent home (referred to herein as the "Proposed Project ") within a portion
of the real property located at 1665 South Brookhurst Street 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 is approximately 0.67 acres in size and is currently
developed with a one -story office building. The Anaheim General Plan designates the Property
for Corridor Residential land uses. The Property is located in the "CG" General Commercial
Zone. As such, the Property is subject to the zoning and development standards described in
Chapter 18.08 (Commercial Zones) of the Anaheim Municipal Code (the "Code "); 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 (i.e.,
Class 1 — Existing Facilities) 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, on December 15, 2014, the Planning Commission did hold a public
hearing at the Civic Center in the City of Anaheim, notice of said public hearing having been
duly given in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 18.60 (Procedures) of the Anaheim
Municipal Code (the "Code "), to hear and consider evidence for and against proposed
Conditional Use Permit No. 2014 -05748 and to investigate and make findings and
recommendations in connection therewith; 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 Proposed Project, does find and determine the
following facts:
1. The Proposed Project is an allowable primary use under the "Convalescent and
Rest Homes " class of uses within the "CG" General Commercial Zone subject to a conditional
use permit under Subsection .010 of Section No. 18.08.030 of the Code.
- 1 - PC2014 -112
2. The Proposed Project will not adversely affect the adjoining land uses, or the
growth and development of the area in which it is proposed to be located because the
convalescent home would be fully contained within the existing building with minimal
expansion;
3. The size and shape of the site is adequate to allow the full development of the
proposed use in a manner not detrimental to the particular area nor to the health, safety and
general welfare of the public because the convalescent home is proposed within an existing
building with only minimal expansion; and
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
traffic generated by this use will not exceed the anticipated volumes of traffic on the surrounding
streets. The majority of residents would not drive and only five to seven employees would be on-
site per shift; 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. 2014- 05748, 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 that
portion of the Property to be used for the Proposed Project 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 Anaheim
Municipal 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 -112
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that approval of this application constitutes
approval of the proposed request only to the extent that it complies with the Anaheim Municipal
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.
THE FOREGOING RESOLUTION was adopted at the Planning Commission
meeting of December 15, 2014. Said Resolution is subject to the appeal provisions set forth in
Chapter 18.60 of the Anaheim Municipal Code pertaining to appeal procedures and may be
replaced by a City Council Resolution in the event of an appeal.
