A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF ANAHEIM APPROVING AN AMENDMENT TO CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
NO. 2006 -05108 AND MAKING CERTAIN FINDINGS IN CONNECTION THEREWITH
(DEV2014- 00131)
(2414 EAST KATELLA AVENUE)
WHEREAS, on July 6, 2006, and subject to certain conditions of approval, the Zoning
Administrator of the City of Anaheim, by Resolution No. ZA2006 -14, (1) approved Conditional
Use Permit No. 2006 -05108 (herein referred to as the "Original CUP ") to permit the sale of beer
and wine for on- premises consumption in a proposed restaurant with outdoor dining on premises
located at 2414 East Katella Avenue, County of Orange, State of California (the "Premises "),
which Premises is located within a commercial center commonly known as 2406 -2432 East
Katella Avenue. The location of the commercial center is generally depicted on the map attached
hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by this reference (the "Property "). The conditions of
approval which were the subject of the Original CUP shall be referred to herein collectively as the
"Previous Conditions of Approval "; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did receive a verified petition to amend the
Original CUP to permit the sales and consumption of alcoholic beverages at a restaurant at the
Premises ( "Proposed Project ") pursuant to Section 18.60.190 (Amendment of Permit Approval)
of the Anaheim Municipal Code ( "Code "). Said amendment is designated as Conditional Use
Permit No. 2006- 05108A; and
WHEREAS, the Property is approximately 2.0 acres in size and is developed with an
8 -unit commercial center. The Land Use Element of the Anaheim General Plan designates the
Property for Mixed Use land uses. The Property is located within the "C -G" General
Commercial Zone. As such, the Property is subject to the zoning and development standards
described in Chapter 18.08 (General Commercial Zone) of the Code; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did hold a public hearing at the Civic Center
in the City of Anaheim on January 12, 2015 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
(Procedures) of the Code, to hear and consider evidence for and against proposed Conditional
Use Permit No. 2006- 05108A, 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
consists 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
- 1 - PC2015 -001
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 for Conditional Use Permit No. 2006- 05108A , does find
and determine the following facts:
1. The request to permit alcoholic beverages for on- premises consumption in
conjunction with a restaurant in an existing commercial retail center in the Commercial Zone is
an allowable use within the "C -G" General Commercial Zone under subsection .010 of Section
18.08 of the Code provided that a conditional use permit is approved.
2. The request to permit alcoholic beverage service for on- premises
consumption in conjunction with a restaurant would not adversely affect the surrounding land
uses and the growth and development of the area in which it is proposed to be located because
the Property is currently developed with a commercial retail center and the proposed use of the
Premises at the Property is compatible with the existing uses within the commercial center and
uses in the surrounding area; and
3. The size and shape of the site is adequate to allow the full development of
the existing use in a manner not detrimental to the particular area nor to the health, safety and
general welfare of the public because the Property is currently improved with a commercial retail
center and there is no proposed expansion of the Premises; and
4. The traffic generated by permitting alcoholic beverage service for on-
premises consumption in conjunction with a restaurant would not impose an undue burden upon
the streets and highways designed and improved to carry the traffic in the area because the
number of vehicles entering and exiting the Property are consistent with the existing commercial
use of the Premises and the permitted businesses within the commercial center; and
5. The granting of Conditional Use Permit No. 2006- 05108A under the
conditions imposed will not be detrimental to the health and safety of the citizens of the City of
Anaheim because the Property is a commercial center which allows restaurant businesses and the
existing restaurant is compatible with the surrounding area.
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission determines that the evidence in the record
constitutes substantial evidence to support the actions taken and the findings made in this
Resolution, that the facts stated in this Resolution are supported by substantial evidence in the
record, including testimony received at the public hearing, the staff presentations, the staff report
and all materials in the project files. There is no substantial evidence, nor are there other facts,
that detract from the findings made in this Resolution. The Planning Commission expressly
declares that it considered all evidence presented and reached these findings after due
consideration of all evidence presented to it.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Planning Commission, for the
reasons hereinabove stated, that Conditional Use Permit No. 2006- 05108A is hereby approved,
thereby amending the Original CUP for the Proposed Project.
-2- PC2015 -001
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that, effective upon the effective date of this
Resolution, the conditions of approval attached to this Resolution as Exhibit B and incorporated
herein by this reference (the "Revised Conditions of Approval ") amend the Previous Conditions
of Approval and hereby replace the Previous Conditions of Approval in their entirety. All
references to the conditions of approval for the Original CUP and this Conditional Use Permit
No. 2006- 05108A shall be to the Revised Conditions of Approval attached to this Resolution as
Exhibit B , which shall control and govern the Original CUP, as amended by Conditional Use
Permit No. 2006- 05108A.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the conditions of approval described in Exhibit
B attached hereto are hereby found to be a necessary prerequisite to the proposed use of the
Premises under Conditional Use Permit No. 2006- 05108A 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, (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.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that approval of this application constitutes approval
of 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.
THE FOREGOING RESOLUTION was adopted at the Planning Commission
meeting of January 12, 2015. Said resolution is subject to the appeal provisions set forth in
Chapter 18.60 (Procedures) of the Anaheim Municipal Code pertaining to appeal procedures and
may be replaced by a City Council Resolution in t4e--�vent of an appeal.
