APPLICANT/PROPERTY OWNER:
The applicant is ShaneHitzemanwith Pride
Bakeries II, LLC dba Panera Bread,represented by Bill Fancher with Fancher
Development Services. The property owneris JWMFE Anaheim, LLC, represented
by Jacqueline Perry.
REQUEST:
The applicant proposes to demolish an existing freestanding restaurant
(formerlyMillie’s) and construct a new freestanding restaurant (Panera Bread) with
an outdoor dining area with fewer parking spaces than required by the Zoning Code.
The project wouldbring the property into greater conformity with the intent of the
Anaheim Resort Specific Plan with the addition of enhanced landscaping and the
removal of parking spacescurrently locatedwithin the front setback area.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the Planning Commission adopt the
attached resolution, determining that Supplemental Environmental Impact Report No.
340 (SEIR 340) is the appropriate environmental document for this requestand
approvingConditional Use Permit No. 2014-05763,Variance No. 2014-04970and
Final Site Plan No.2014-00009.
BACKGROUND:
Thisrequest was continued from the March 23, 2015 Planning
Commission meeting at the request of the applicant, to resolve concerns pertaining to
certain proposed conditions of approval. Thoseconcerns have been addressed to the
satisfaction of staff and the applicant.
This 4.2-acre parcel is currently developed with a470-room Fairfield Inn Marriott
hotel and a vacant freestanding restaurant building.The project site is located within
the boundaries ofthe AnaheimResort Specific Plan No. 92-2(ARSP),Commercial-
Recreation (C-R) District(Development Area 1). The General Plan designates this
property for Commercial Recreational land uses.
The property was developed prior to the establishment of the ARSPand was
approved with a variance to allow fewer parking spaces than requiredby the Zoning
Code. Various improvements onthe property do not conform tothe development
standardsof the ARSP, particularly landscape setbacks.

Surrounding properties to the north, east and south are also designated for Commercial Recreation
land usesby the Anaheim General Plan. Mimi’s Café and a hotel (under construction) are located to
the north; McDonald’s and a hotel are located to the south;and a hotel and office building are to the
east. The Disneyland Theme Park is located to the west, across Harbor Boulevard.
PROPOSAL:
The applicant proposes to demolish the 4,800 square foot restaurant building and
construct a new 5,290 square foot Panera Bread restaurantwith a720 square foot outdoor patio.
The new building would be closer to the street, immediately behind the required landscape
setback, sothatno parking would belocated between the building and the street. The entrance to
the restaurant is proposed at the southwest corner of the building.
Access to the site is currently provided via two driveways along Harbor Boulevard.The
southerly driveway allows entry only and the northerly driveway is exit only, with a motion
controlled gate arm. No changes to the driveways are proposed.Changes to parking and
circulation include removal of existing compact spaces adjacent to the existing building and
replacing them with a row of angled parking stalls that meet current size standards. There are no
changes to the parkingor circulation surrounding the existing hotel building. A total of 295
parking spaces are proposed for the restaurant and hotel.
New landscaping is proposed within the public right-of-way, specifically,a new 8-foot parkway
would be provided behind the sidewalk and would be planted withQueen Palms,a boxwood
hedge and daylilies, in accordance with the ARSP Design Plan.The required 26-foot deep
setback would be planted with turf in the foreground and a variety of shrubs and palm treesin the
background.
The majority of the building would be a stucco finish in a neutral color, with a raised corner
element finished with cementboard panels in a light olive color. Windows would be treated with
awnings and planted trellises would be attached to the windowless walls visible to Harbor
Boulevard. The entry would include an eyebrow canopy with an angled sign area above. One
wall sign is proposed and the panels on the existing monument sign would be updated to include
PaneraBreadidentification.
ANALYSIS:
Following is staff’s analysis and recommendations on the requested project.
Final Site Plan:The ARSPrequires approval of a final site plan for all new development to
ensure that the proposed design is appropriate for the site, compatible with surrounding land uses
and in compliance with specific plan requirements. Staff has reviewed the proposal and supports
the overall design, architecture, circulation and landscaping associated with the project.As
discussed in the section below, the project brings this legal-nonconforming hotel and restaurant
site into greater conformance with the requirements of the ARSP.
Conditional Use Permit:The ARSP permits modifications to sites with legal non-conforming
features subject to the approval of a Conditional Use Permit, provided that the proposed changes
would bring the site into greater conformance with the intent of the Specific Plan. The existing
propertyis legal non-conforming with respect to landscape setbacks, parking lot landscaping, and
parking stall dimensions. In the existing condition, several parking spaces encroach into the front

setback area, landscaping adjacent to the street is minimal and there are fourteen parking spaces to
the immediate north of the building thatdo not comply with City standards. The proposed plan
provides fordedication and installation of required landscaping forthe eightfeet of public right-of-
way behind the sidewalk, which is a requirement along this segment of Harbor Boulevard. The
project would also includethe full 26-foot deep landscaped setback on Harbor Boulevard with no
parking encroachments.The setbackwould includelayeredlandscapingrequiredbythe ARSP
Design Plan.The project also complies with the required tree density requirements and the number
of trees provided in the parking area surrounding the proposed restaurant.
ParkingVariance:Based on the size of the proposed restaurant and number of hotel rooms and
employees, the developmentrequires 454parking spacesto comply with theZoningCode.Atotal
of 295 parking spaces would be provided. A parking study was prepared by LSA Associates(LSA)
to determine whether the proposed number of spaces is adequate for the uses based on shared
parking and off-set peak hours.Counts were taken at the existing hotel as well as at the adjacent
Mimi’s Café parking lot. The study found that the peak demand for the hotel was in the early
morning when most of the guests were in their rooms and hotel staff were arriving for work. The
peak for the restaurant occurred during lunch hours. Combining the peak demand for each use
resulted in a shared peak at 10:00a.m. and noon, with a demand of up to 256 parking spaces. Based
on this information, the proposed parking of 295 spaces shouldbeadequate to meet the demand of
the combined uses.
Environmental Impacts:An initial study and various technical studies were prepared for this
project. The initial study concludes that the proposed project is within the parameters, assumptions
and time frames analyzed in the previously-certified Master Environmental Impact ReportNo. 313
(MEIR 313) and Supplemental Environmental Impact Report No.340(SEIR 340).MEIR 313 was
certified in September 1994 for the ARSP and SEIR 340 was certified in December 2012 for
Amendment No. 14 to the ARSP. Staff has prepared a Mitigation Monitoring Plan for this project,
which includes all applicable mitigation measures from the mitigation and monitoring program
approved in conjunction with SEIR 340.
CONCLUSION:
Staff believes that the proposed development is consistent with the goals and
policies of the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan. The construction of the new restaurant and
improvements to the site circulation and landscaping will upgrade the overall appearance of the
property and enhance the visitor experience to the Anaheim Resort. Staff recommends approval of
the final site plan, conditional use permit, and variance.

-2-PC2015-***
c.There is no new information of substantial importance, which was not known and
could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence atthetime Final EIR No.
340was certified as complete was adopted, that showsany of the following: (a) the Proposed
Projectwill have one or moresignificant effects not discussed in Final EIRNo. 340; (b)

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; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Planning Commission has reviewed and
considered Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program No. 318 ("MMPNo. 318"), which is
incorporated herein by this reference, and was prepared for the Proposed Project and includes
mitigation measures specific to the Proposed Project, and, in accordance with the requirements
of CEQA, finds and determines that,with the imposition of identified mitigation measures, the
Proposed Project will not result in any new significant impacts to the environment and there is no
substantial evidence that the ProposedProject will have a significant effect on the environment;
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 proposed Conditional Use Permit No. 2014-05763does find and
determine the following facts:
1.The request to expand a nonconforming use or structure, including the
construction of a freestanding restaurant in conjunction with an existing legal-nonconforming
hotel, provided that the expansion brings the Propertyinto greater conformity with the intent of
the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan,is properly one for which a conditional use permit is
authorized under Section 18.116.070(Uses –Commercial Recreation(C-R)District
(Development Area 1))of Chapter 18.116 (Anaheim Resort Specific Plan No. 92-2 (SP 92-2)
Zoning and Development Standards) of the Code; and
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 Proposed
Project is consistent and compatible with existing resort and tourism related uses in the zone; and
-3-PC2015-***
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 because the Proposed Project would be adjacent to an existing restaurant to the south; and
4.The traffic generated by theProposed 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 and adequate parking will be provided to accommodate the use; 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 as the proposed
land use will be integrated with the surrounding commercial area and would not pose a health or
safety risk to the citizens of the City of Anaheim or the adjoining City.
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission does further find and determine that the request
for VarianceNo. 2014-04970to permit less parking than required by the Code in conjunction
with proposed restaurant should be approved for the following reasons:
SECTION NO. 18.42.040.010Minimum number of parking spaces.
(454 spaces required; 295 spaces proposed)
1.That the variance, under the conditions imposed, if any, will not cause fewer off-
street parking spaces to be provided for the proposed use than the number of such spaces
necessary to accommodate all vehicles attributable to such use under the normaland reasonably
foreseeable conditions of operation of such use. A parking study was prepared by LSA
Associates which determined that, based on the non-conflicting peak hoursforthe hotel and
restaurant, shared peak parking demand is projected to be 256 parking spaces; and
2.That the variance, under the conditions imposed, if any, will not increase the
demand and competition for parking spaces upon the public streets in the immediate vicinity of
the proposed usebecause on-site parking will not increase or compete for on-street parking,
since adequate parking is provided on-site to accommodate the peak parking demands of the
proposed indoor and outdoor smoking lounges in conjunction with an existing restaurant and the
other uses on the site; and
3.That the variance, under the conditions imposed, if any, will not increase the
demand and competition for parking spaces upon adjacent private property in the immediate
vicinity. The parking study demonstrated that there is adequate on site parking to meet the
demands of the existing and proposed uses, such that parking should not impact other properties;
and
4.That the variance, under the conditions imposed, if any, will not increase traffic

INTRODUCTION
Statement of Purpose
The purpose of this analysis is to evaluate parking demand and supply for an existing hotel and
proposed Panera Bread restaurant located at 1480 South Harbor Boulevard in the City of Anaheim
(City). The analysis evaluates the parking conditions associated with shared parking between the
Fairfield Inn (hotel)and proposed Panera Bread restaurant. Utilizing field observation and collected
empirical data, LSA Associates, Inc. (LSA) analyzed both Existing and Existing Plus Project
scenarios for parking demand. Surveys of a similarneighboringMimi’s Café restaurant were used to
calculate the variation in parking demand throughout the day that could be expected atthe proposed
Panera Bread restaurant.Figure 1 illustrates the project location and the location of the neighboring
Mimi’s Caférestaurant. Topics addressed in this analysis include: (1) the shared parking between the
Panera Bread restaurant and hotel;(2) the ratio of self-parking to valet parking;(3) the effects of
Disneylandparkingdemand spilling over onto nearby parcel;and (4) the effects of parking control.
Project Description
The parcel at 1480 South Harbor Boulevard was previously approved for a 470 room hotel and a
4,800 square foot (sf)high-turnover sit-down restaurant(Millie’sRestaurant and Bakery [Millie’s
Restaurant]). The hotel operator, Fairfield Inn, is still active at this site. The Millie’s Restaurant is no
longer open for business. Implementation of this proposedproject will demolish the 4,800 sf building
and construct a new 5,290 sf Panera Bread restaurant with a 720 sf patio. Figure 2 provides the
project’s site plan.
The parcel has two driveways on Harbor Boulevard. One driveway is located on the south end of the
parcel and is marked for entrance only. Another driveway is located on the north end of the parcel and
is marked for exit only. Temporary barricades across half of the north driveway emphasize the exit-
only function of this driveway. The project is not proposing to alter the driveways.
Within the existing parking lot, 15 parking spaces werelocated in a separate section for the Millie’s
Restaurant, 86 parking spaces are marked for valet only, 4 parking spaces aremarked for loading
only, 42 parking spaces are marked reserved, and 161 parking spaces (including 8 handicap parking
spaces) are available for hotel self-parking. In total, 308 parking spaces are available for vehicles to
park. Figure 2 illustrates the proposed parking lot striping. Only the parking areas near Harbor
Boulevard would require modification,as a result of relocating the Panera Bread restaurant building
and providing standard-sized stalls in place of existing compact stalls.With these changes, 295 spaces
are proposed.
The project site is located within the Anaheim Resort, which offers a benefit from the amount of
pedestrian traffic and a challenge due to the potential for parking demand from other land uses to
spillover onto nearby parcels.Parking control (i.e., limiting accessto patrons of the land uses on site)
is currently exercised through the use of a rolling valet stand. At the time LSA visited the site, the
valet stand was located adjacent to the hotel, which would allow vehicles to enter the restaurant
parking section without passing the valet stand. However, vehicles entering the restaurant parking
section and the pedestrians exiting the vehiclewould be visible to the parking attendant.Parking
control in the form of a parking attendant at a rolling valet stand is proposed under the project
condition also.

MUNICIPAL CODE PARKING REQUIREMENT
The project parcel is located within the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan. Anaheim Municipal Code
(AMC) Section 18.116.140.120 states that the off-street parking requirements found in AMC
Section18.42.040 apply within the boundaries of the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan. The off-street
parking requirements established in AMCSection18.42.040 state that hotels must provide
0.8parking space per guest room, 8 parking spaces per thousand square feet(TSF)of
banquet/meeting space, and 0.25parking space per employee in guest room areas. The restaurant
integrated into this planned development complex would require 8 parking spaces per TSF.For this
project, 406 spaces are required for the hotel and 48 spaces for the restaurant. A total of 454 spaces
are required.The project parcel has been in operation with 308 parking spaces. This parking analysis
seeks to determine the parking needsat the existing hotel and at a similar nearby restaurantand
applies those needs to the proposed operation.
DATA COLLECTION
LSA coordinated with an independent third-party data collection firm, National Data and Surveying
Services, Inc. (NDS), to collect parking accumulation data at the project parcel (indicated in yellow
on Figure 1) and atMimi’s Café located at 1400 South Harbor Boulevard(indicated in blue on
Figure1). Mimi’s Café, like Panera Bread, is a high-turnover sit-down restaurant with a strong place
in the breakfast market. Data within the project parcel (yellow) was separated by parking area(e.g.,
hotel self-parking, reserved parking, valet parking, etc.). Parking accumulation counts were
conducted every half-hour between 4:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m. on Saturday, October 25, 2014,and
Saturday, November 8, 2014. The survey results are available in Appendix A. Saturday, October 25,
2014,was the last Saturday of the Halloween season and a busy day in the Anaheim Resort.Saturday,
November 8, 2014,represented a typicalweekendday. This data was used to examine the ratio of
self-parking to valet and the effects of spillover parking.
NDS also collected driveway volume data by placing video recording devices at the two driveways
into the project parcel and the two driveways into Mimi’s Café. Data was collected for a 24-hour
period on Thursday, November 20, 2014. This driveway data revealed trip generation and parking
generation for both the hotel and restaurant uses ona typical weekday. A summary of the data
collected is available in Appendix A.
ANALYSIS & FINDINGS
Parking Generation Rates
As mentioned above, video data at the driveways to the hotel and Mimi’s Caféwere used to calculate
parking and trip generationfor the proposed Panera Bread restaurant use. The number of cars
outbound from a site can be subtracted from the number of cars inbound to a site and the balance is
the number of new cars accumulating on the site. For example, if 10 cars enter the site and 3 cars exit
the site during a period, then 7 more cars would have parked on the site during that period. On
November 20, 2014,the highest observed parking demand for the hotel was 277 vehicles at 5:30 a.m.
The highest observed parking demand for Mimi’s Caféwas 64 vehicles at 12:00 p.m. Table A shows
the parking rates resulting fromthese observations.

The peak-parking rate for Mimi’s Café was observed to be approximately 9.6 parking spaces per TSF.
This rate is 36 percent lower than the 15 spaces per TSF rate stipulated for stand-alone full-service
restaurants in AMC Section 18.42.040. Mimi’s Café is located within its own parking lot, but within
walking distance of many hotels. Panera Bread will also be located within walking distance of many
hotels and within the same parcel as the Fairfield Inn. Because Panera Bread will be integrated into a
planned development complex, the City’s rate of 8 parking spaces per TSF for full-service restaurants
in planned development complexes should apply. Table A calculates the parking demand that is
anticipated for the proposed PaneraBread restaurant use, utilizing the City’s rate. Parking was
generated for the entire restaurant area (5,290 sf building and 720sf patio).
As Table A shows, the Panera Bread restaurant use is anticipated to have a peak-parking demand for
48 parking spaces. Table A shows that, on a typical weekday, the sum of peak-parking demand for
the hotel and Panera Bread restaurant would be 325 parking spaces. This exceeds the 311 parking
spaces shown on the site plan. The two land uses will not be able to have theirown, separate parking
areas within the site. However, peak demand for the hotel and restaurant occur at different times and
sharing of parking spaces may be possible.
Shared Parking
Peak parking demand for the hotel occurred at 5:30 a.m. when most guests were in theirrooms and
some hotel staff wasarriving for work.By 10:00 a.m., observed parking demand was approximately
80 percent of the peak demand. At noon, observed parking demand was 75 percent of peak demand.
During dinner hours, observed parking demand was approximately 70 percent of peak demand.
Exhibit 1 illustrates the observed variation in hotel parking demand.

Table B shows the interaction of the varying intensity of parking demand for each land use. As
TableB shows, the highest parking demand for the site is expected to occurbetween 10:00 a.m. and
the 12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m. lunch hour. During that period of peak-parkingdemand, on a typical
weekday, approximately 256vehicles would be parking on site. The proposed parking supply exceeds
that typical parking demand.

Hotel Self/Valet Parking Ratio
Not all parking spaces are available to all users. Within the existing parking lot, 15 parking spaces
wereset aside for the Millie’s Restaurant, 86 parking spaces are marked for hotel valet only, 4
parking spaces are marked for loading only, and 42 parking spaces are marked reserved leaving 161
parking spaces (including 8 handicap parking spaces) available for hotel self-parking. LSA focused
onthe self-parking and valet parking spaces available to hotel guests to understand the desirability of
one choice over the other. The purpose was to determine how many parking spaces should be
allocated to each parking type withinthe proposed project.
LSA examined the detailed parking accumulation data gathered on Saturday, October 25, 2014,and
Saturday, November 8, 2014. As Table C indicates, approximately 60 percent of hotel guests choose
self-parking and 40 percent choose valet parking. It should be noted that the number of vehicles in
valet parking spaces can exceed the number of striped spaces because of double stacking.Table C
also indicates that when guest parking demand exceeded self-parking capacity (Saturday, October 25,
2014,was a busy day in the Anaheim Resort), valet operations were able to absorb the additional
demand.When parking spaces are allocated between Panera Bread, hotel operations, and hotel guests,
this ratio of approximately 60 percent self-parking guests and 40 percent valet guests should be
maintained.

Effects of Spillover Parking
Most parcels along Harbor Boulevard exercise some form of parking control (typically gated access
or a parking attendant) to discourage parking demand spilling over from the Disneyland Resort.
Spillover parking demand could come from either all-day parking seeking to avoid parking fees or
short-term parking seeking to avoid delay. The Disneyland Resort provides a drop-off/pick-up
parking lot along Harbor Boulevard. This lot has recently been altered to remove striped parking
spaces and replace them with curbside waiting areas. Both prior to restriping and currently, drivers
experience delay when attempting to use the drop-off/pick-up area during the peak times for dropping
off and pickingup. The desire to avoid delay could attract drivers to an alternative drop-off/pick-up
location.

LSA compared parking data collected on a busy day in the Anaheim Resort, Saturday, October 25,
2014 (the Saturday before Halloween is likely to be particularly busy with parents picking up in the
late afternoon and early evening), and a typical day, Saturday, November 8, 2014. LSA used this data
to quantify how much short-term parking demand might spill over onto the project site if no parking
control were in place.
LSA looked specifically at two parking areas. First, the 15 parking spaces near the closed Millie’s
Restaurant might attract drivers seeking a potential alternative pick-up location. Second, the
uncontrolled Mimi’s Café parking lot might attract drivers seeking a potential alternative pick-up
location. Hotel parking spaces were not considered for this portion of the exercise as they are affected
by room occupancy and the parking attendant. Weather was similar on these two Saturdays. Variation
in parking demand in these two lots from one Saturday to the other should be due primarily to
changes in demand for short-term parking at Disneyland.
Upon receiving the results of the parking surveys, it became apparent that the spaces near Millie’s
Restaurantare not currently affected by spillover short-term parking. One vehicle was observed in
that lot on Saturday, October 25, 2014,and up to three vehicles were observed in that lot on Saturday,
November 8, 2014. It is possible that the presence of the parking attendant discourages spillover
parking even when drivers do not have to drive past the attendant.
Table D provides a comparison of observed parking demand at Mimi’s Café.This parking lotis
located at the corner of Harbor Boulevard/Manchester Avenue and is about a quarter-mile farther
walk compared to the official drop-off/pick-up area. Table D reveals that parking demand was similar
on the compared Saturdays between 4:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. and again after 9:00 p.m. However,
between the hours of 6:00 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. parking demand was higher on the holiday Saturday.
This would indicate that this parking lot could have been affected by spillover short-term parking
demand. The number of additional cars appears to be 5-6 on average during this period. If the
proposed Panera Bread did not have any form of parking control, it might also be subject to similar
spillover short-term parking on busy days in the Anaheim Resort. However, it should be reiterated
that the data suggests that the project site is notcurrently subject to spillover short-term parking.

Parking Control
The previous section identified the potential for spillover parking in the absence of parking control.
While it can be effective at managing parking utilization, the use of parking control can slow the
entry of vehicles into the parking lot resultingin vehicles queuing. Parking queues that reach a public
street can interfere with traffic flow and are a hazard. LSA reviewed the proposed location of the
rolling valet stand and the number of inbound trips to determine whether queues would be contained
off the street.
The first step to identifythe potential for vehicle stacking is to calculatethe number of trips entering
the site. As was previously mentioned, driveway volume was collected at the hotel and at Mimi’s
Café to determine the trip generation potential of a hotel and restaurant in this area of the Anaheim
Resort. Table E presents the trip generation calculations.

TOTAL1,72959551145374127
ADT = Average Daily Traffic
TSF = Thousand Square Feet
Table E shows that operation of the existing hotel and the Panera Bread restaurant is expected to
generate 1,729 trips each day. Of those trips, 114 would occur in 1 hour during the morning commute
period and 127 would occur in 1 hour during the evening commute period. During the highest hour
for inbound volume, which is expected to occur in the morning, 59 vehicles are expected to enter the
site. If evenly spread out, this would be about 1 vehicle per minute. The time it takes for each vehicle
to enter the site will determine how many vehicles may be queued waiting to enter.
In order to determine the potential queues that may form at the driveway entryway, the methodology
described in Robert Crommelin’sEntrance-Exit Design and Control for Major Parking Facilitieswas
used to prepare this study. Worksheets related to the Crommelin analysis are included in Appendix B.
The highest inbound volume typical expected was compared to the service rate for an information
booth with directions needed(14.8 seconds per vehicle).The average queue lengths anticipated were
calculated based on the Reservoir Needs versusTraffic Intensity chart in the Crommelin report. On
average,a queue of one vehicle is anticipated. The maximum queue, whichwould not be exceeded
95percent of the time,is two vehicles.

LSA performed a sensitivity analysis where trip generation was increased by 25 percent to simulate
more hotel traffic during the high season. The results of this sensitivity analysis identified a maximum
queue of three vehicles. Results of the sensitivity analysis are also included in Appendix B.
Figure 3 illustrates the proposed location of the rolling valet stand and the stacking distance from the
valet stand to the street. Due to the high pedestrian activity in the Anaheim Resort, it is desirable to
avoid blocking the sidewalk with the queue. Figure 3 shows that 72 feet (ft) are provided between the
sidewalk and the proposed location for the valet stand. The sidewalk and landscape setback provide
an additional 16 ftbefore reaching thestreet. The 72 ftprovided between the valet stand and sidewalk
should be enough space for three vehicles to queue. Therefore, based on the results of the Crommelin
methodology, adequate storage is availableonsite to accommodate the average queue and maximum
th
95percentile queue.However, the valet stand could be placed at the far end of the restaurant
building without affecting the ability to control access to the parking lot. A valet stand in this location
would provide 112 ftbetween the valet stand and sidewalk and would provide greater assurance that
vehicle queues would not reach Harbor Boulevard.
CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
This study provides an analysis of parking demand and supply for an existing hotel and proposed
Panera Bread restaurant located at 1480 South Harbor Boulevard. The analysis evaluated the parking
conditions associated with shared parking between the hotel and restaurant utilizing field observation
and collected empirical data. Surveys of a similar neighboring restaurant wereused to calculate
parking generation for the proposed restaurant. The analysis concluded that sufficient parking is
provided on site to allow for shared parking between the hotel and restaurant during typical and peak
operationsince the hotel and restaurant peak times do not conflict.
After reviewing existing and future parking conditions, LSA makes the following recommendation:
The rolling valet stand should be placed at the eastern end of the Panera Bread building to
maximize the potential vehicle queue without interference with the street or sidewalk.
AParking Management Plan should be preparedby the applicantto show the location of reserved
spaces, valet spaces, and self-parking spaces and how the areas may shift depending upon the
needsof the hotel and restaurant.

EVALUATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS
:
1)All answers must take account of the whole action involved, including offsite as well as onsite, cumulative as
well as project-level, indirect as well as direct, and construction as well as operational impacts.
2)A list of “Supporting Information Sources” must be attached and other sources used or individuals contacted
should be cited in the Narrative Summary for each section.
3)Response column heading definitions:
Potentially Significant Impact
a)is appropriate if there is substantial evidence that an effect may be
significant. If there are one or more “Potentially Significant Impact” entries when the determination is
made, an Environmental Impact Report (EIR)is required.
Potentially Significant Unless Mitigation Incorporated
b)applies where the incorporation of mitigation
measures has reduced an effect from “Potentially Significant Impact” to a “Less Than Significant
Impact”.The mitigation measures must be described, along with a brief explanation of how they reduce
the effect to a less than significant level.
Less Than Significant Impact
c)applies where the Projectcreates no significant impacts, only “Less Than
Significant impacts”.
No Impact
d)applies where a Projectdoes not create an impact inthat category. A “No Impact” answer is
adequately supported if the referenced information sources show that the impact simply does not apply to
projects like the one proposed (e.g., the project falls outside of a fault rupture zone). A “No Impact”
answer should be explained where it is based on project-specific factors as well as general standards (e.g.,
the project will not expose sensitive receptors to pollutants, based on a project-specific screening
analysis).
4)Earlier analyses may be used where, pursuant to a tiering, program EIR, Master EIR, or other California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)process, an effect has been adequately analyzed in an earlier EIR or
negative declaration (§15062(c)(3)(D)).In this case, a brief discussion should identifythe following:
Earlier Analysis Used.
a)Identify and state where they are available for review.
Impacts Adequately Addressed.
b)Identify which effects from the checklist were within the scope of and
adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable legal standards, and state whether such
effects were addressed by mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis.
Mitigation Measures.
c)For effects that are “Less than Significant with Mitigation Measures
Incorporated”, describe the mitigation measures which were incorporated or refined from the earlier
document and the extent to which they address site-specific conditions for the Project.
5)Incorporate into the checklist any references to information sources for potential impacts (e.g., the General
Plan, zoning ordinance). Reference to a previously prepared or outside document should, where appropriate,
include a reference to the page or pages where the statement is substantiated.
6)The explanation of each issue should identify:
a)The significance criteria or threshold, if any, used to evaluate each question; and
b)The mitigation measure identified, if any, to reduce the impact to less than significant.

Project Setting
The project site is located at 1480 S. Harbor Boulevard in the City of Anaheim.The 4.2-acre parcel is
currently developed with an eight-story, 470-room hotel and 4,800 square foot freestanding restaurant. The
parcel is located within the Commercial Recreation (CR) District of the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan No.
92-2 (SP 92-2) Zone.The General Plan designates this property for Commercial Recreation land use.
Surrounding properties to the north, east and south are also designated for Commercial Recreation land use
by the Anaheim General Plan. Mimi’s Café and a hotel (under construction) are located to the north;
McDonald’s and a hotel are located to the south; and a hotel and office building are to the east. The
Disneyland Theme Park is located to the west, across Harbor Boulevard and is within the Disneyland Resort
Specific Plan No. 92-1 (SP92-1) Zone.
The subject property,in its existing condition,is shown in Figure 1-Existing Conditions on Page 4. The
project site is limited to the lease area to be developed with the new restaurant, shown inFigure 2–ALTA
Survey, Project Site.

Project Description
The applicant proposes to demolish the existing 4,800 square foot restaurant and construct a new 5,290
square foot restaurant with a720 square foot outdoor patio, within the same general area of the property.The
parking lot immediately surrounding the proposed building would be reconfigured to eliminate parking from
the front setback area and existing compact parking stalls would be reconfigured to comply with current
parking standards. There are no changes proposed to the existing hotel or the parking areas immediately
surrounding it.The proposal includes a total of 295 parking spaces to be shared by restaurant patrons, hotel
self-parking and hotel valet parking.Variance 2014-04970 is requested to provide for a total of 295 parking
spaces rather than the 454 required spaces (Hotel: 406; Restaurant: 48). The parking study demonstrates that
there is enough parking on-site as the peak times of the hotel and restaurant do not overlap. The shared
parking peak is 256parking spacesfrom 10:00am-12:00pm. The property has two driveways on Harbor
Boulevard, with the south driveway marked for entrance only and the north driveway marked for exit only,
with an automatic gate armat the exit.
Conditional Use Permit No. 2014-05763 is requested in order to modify a legal-nonconforming property and
bring the site into greater conformance with the requirements of the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan. The front
setback area would be landscaped to comply with the design criteria of the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan.
Additionally, the 8-foot wide parkway behind the sidewalk would be planted with Queen Palms, a Japanese
Boxwood hedge and Daylilies. New landscaping will be provided within the parking area and surrounding
the building, including a green screen adjacent to the north and south elevations.
Signage for the new restaurant includes one wall sign oriented toward the southwest. A panel on the existing
monument sign would also be provided for the restaurant.
The subject property was reclassified to the CR District of the SP 92-2 Zone in September 1994, concurrent
with the adoption of the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan (ARSP) and the certification of Master
Environmental Impact Report No. 313 (MEIR No. 313). This master environmental impact report has
served as the environmental documentation for projects that are implemented in accordance with the ARSP.
The analysis in MEIR No. 313 was recently supplemented by the certification of Supplemental
Environmental Impact Report No.340 (SEIR No. 340), adoptedin December, 2012.
Any impacts are addressed by mitigation measures set forth in Mitigation Monitoring Plan No. 318, created
for this project from Updated and Modified Mitigation Monitoring Program No. 85C (adopted in conjunction
with the certification of SEIR No. 340). Applicable mitigation measures will be applied to this project and
impacts would be less than significant.

Narrative Summary: Impacts analyzed in SEIR No. 340/No new impacts.
SEIR No. 340 analyzed the aesthetic impacts
related to the implementation of the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan No. 92-2. Refer to SEIR No. 340, Section 4.3.1.
According to SEIR No. 340, the ARSP area does not contain any scenic resources, nor are any scenic vistas visible from the
ARSP area; therefore, no impact would occur. Future development and redevelopment associated with buildout of the ARSP
area would change the existing visual character of individual areas; however, buildout of the ARSP area would create a more
visually cohesive and appealing environment and impacts would be less than significant with implementation of the
recommended mitigation program.
The proposed project would not impact any scenic vistas or degrade the existing visual character of the surrounding area.
The architecture would blend in with the existing adjacent buildings and enhance The Anaheim Resort with an aesthetically
pleasing structure. The new structure would be similar to the existing structure in size and mass, and would not negatively
affect the shade/shadows on the adjacent hotel structures or developments in either the summer or winter months.
The proposed project would not result in any impacts beyond those identifiedin the previously certified SEIRNo. 340. Any
impacts are addressed by mitigation measures set forth inMitigation Monitoring Plan 318,created for this projectfrom
Updated and Modified Mitigation Monitoring Program No. 85C (SEIR No. 340 for the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan No.

Narrative Summary: Impacts analyzed in SEIR No. 340/No new impacts.
SEIR No.340 addressed the air quality
impacts associated with implementation of the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan No. 92-2. Refer to SEIR No. 340, Section
4.3.2.
SEIR No. 340 concluded that, with implementation of all identified mitigation measures, mass emissions resulting from
construction-related activities would be less than significant. However, because of uncertainties in the timing and magnitude
of emissions for possible projects, it was concluded that cumulative emissions from construction would be significant and
unavoidable.It was also concluded that local concentrations of particulate matter with a diameter of 10 microns or less
(PM10) and fine particulate matter with a diameter of 2.5 microns or less (PM2.5) would exceed the South Coast Air Quality
Management District’s (SCAQMD’s) CEQA significance thresholds for short-term periods when excavation would occur
near sensitive receptors; the impact would be significant and unavoidable.The Anaheim City Council adopted a Statement
of Overriding Considerations with regard to this potential impact.
Emissions of criteria pollutants resulting from operation of the full buildout of the ARSP would exceed the SCAQMD
applicable thresholds for volatile organic compounds (VOC), nitrogen oxides (NOx), carbon monoxide (CO), PM10, and
PM2.5. Operation would result in direct and cumulative significant and unavoidable impacts. The Anaheim City Council
adopted a Statement of Overriding Considerations with regard to these potential impacts. Because implementation of the
ARSP could result in an increase in the frequency or severity of existing air quality violations, SEIR No. 340 concluded that
the ARSP could conflict with or obstruct implementation of the 2007AQMP, thereby resulting in a significant and
unavoidable impact. The Anaheim City Council adopted a Statement of Overriding Considerations with regard to this
potential impact.
Construction and operation of the ARSP would not expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant toxic air contaminants
(TACs); would not expose sensitive receptors to substantial CO local concentrations; and would not create objectionable
odors. These impacts would be less than significant.
The ARSP permits development of up to 75 hotel rooms per acre on the project site, or the equivalent of 600 square feet of
visitor serving uses per hotel room. Therefore, theair quality analysis in SEIR No. 340 analyzed the operational impacts of
the developmentof up toapproximately 48 hotel rooms, or 28,800 square feet of visitor serving uses, on the0.64acre
restaurant portionof the project site. The applicant proposes to demolish the existing 4,800 square foot restaurant and
construct a new 5,290 square foot restaurant with a 720 square foot outdoor patio,within the same general area of the
property.As a result, the proposed project falls under the maximumamount of developmentanalyzed in SEIR No. 340.
The proposed project would not result in any construction or operational impacts beyond those identified in the previously
certified SEIR No. 340. Any impacts are addressed by mitigation measures set forth in Mitigation Monitoring Plan 318,
created for this project from Updated and Modified Mitigation Monitoring Program No. 85C (SEIR No. 340 for the
Anaheim Resort Specific Plan No. 92-2).Applicable mitigation measures will be applied to this project and impacts would
be less than significant.

Narrative Summary:Impacts analyzed in SEIR No. 340/No new impacts.
SEIR No. 340 addressed the potential impacts
to biological resources associated with implementation of the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan No. 92-2. Refer to SEIR No.
340, Section 4.3.3.
SEIR No. 340 identified that the ARSP area is located within an urbanized area of the City with no Candidate, Sensitive, or
Special Status Species as listed in local regional plans, policies, or regulations, or as designated by the California
1
Department of Fish and Wildlife(CDFW) or the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS). Further, SEIR No. 340
concluded that the ARSP area does not function as a migratory corridor or a native wildlife nursery site and no impact would
occur.
The proposed project site and surrounding areas are urbanized and no significant plant or animal resources are located on or
within the immediate vicinity. There are no wetlands or wildlife corridors or nurseries on or in the vicinity of the site. In
addition, the site is not located within a designated HCP or NCCP area.
The proposed project wouldnot result in any impacts beyond those identified in the previously certified SEIR No. 340. Any
impacts are addressed by mitigation measures set forth in Mitigation Monitoring Plan 318, created for this project from

SEIR No. 340 addressed the potential
impacts to cultural resources associated with implementation of the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan No. 92-2. Refer to SEIR
No. 340, Section 4.3.4.
According toSEIR No. 340, no designated historical resources exist within the ARSP area. Further, no resources are
anticipated to be discovered in the ARSP area. SEIR No. 340 concluded that there is no evidence of human remains in the
ARSP area and that adherence to Section 5097.98 of the California PublicResources Codeand California Health and
Section 7050.5 of the California Health and Safety Codewould ensure that a significant impact would not occur.
The proposed project site is urbanized and no known cultural resources are located on or in the vicinity of the site.There are
no historic structures on the site. In addition, there are no known archaeological or paleontological resources. And there are
no known burial sites on the proposed project site.
The proposed project would not result in any impacts beyond those identified in the previously certified SEIR No. 340. Any

Narrative Summary:Impacts analyzed in SEIR No. 340/No new impacts.
SEIR No. 340 analyzed the geotechnical and
soils impacts related to the implementation of the AnaheimResort Specific Plan No. 92-2. Refer to SEIR No. 340, Section
4.3.5.
SEIR No. 340 identified active and potentially active faults in the region that could result in seismic-related impacts to future
development projects associated with the buildout of the ARSP. Seismic events along these faults have the potential to result
in strong ground motion. SEIR No. 340 concluded that potential impacts related to seismic ground shaking would be
reduced to less than significant levels with implementation of project specific mitigation measures(if required);
conformance with the applicable requirements listed in the Anaheim Municipal Code; and with conformance to the
California Building Code.
As noted in SEIR No. 340, the ARSP area is located in a relatively flat area with minimal potential for erosion impacts due
to the high amount of urban development and low amount of bare ground. However, during demolition and construction
activities when areas are exposed to erosion and loss of topsoil, adherence to the followingwould ensure that impacts would
be less than significant: local and State codes and requirements for erosion control and grading; compliance with the
National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit and the subsequent development of a Storm Water
Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP).
The proposed project would not result in any impacts beyond those identified in the previously certified SEIR No. 340. Any
impacts are addressed by mitigation measures set forth in Mitigation Monitoring Plan 318, created for this project from
Updated and Modified Mitigation Monitoring Program No. 85C (SEIR No. 340 for the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan No.

Impacts analyzed in SEIR No. 340/No new impacts. SEIR No. 340
analyzed thepotential impacts fromgreenhouse gas emissions related to the implementation of the Anaheim Resort Specific
Plan No. 92-2. Refer to SEIR No. 340, Section 4.3.6.
SEIR No. 340 concluded that although the proposed project would not conflict with applicable regulations and policies
adopted for the purpose of reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and although feasible mitigation measures would be
incorporated into the proposed project, the magnitude of the increase in GHG emissions would remain cumulatively
considerable and the impact to GHG emissions would be significant and unavoidable. The Anaheim City Council adopted a
Statement of Overriding Considerations with regard to these potential impacts.
The ARSP permits development of up to 75 hotel rooms per acre on the project site, or the equivalent of 600 square feet of
visitor serving uses per hotel room. Therefore, the greenhouse gas emissions analysis in SEIR No. 340 analyzed the
operational impacts of the development of up to approximately 48 hotel rooms, or 28,800 square feet of visitor serving uses,
on the 0.64 acre restaurant portion of the project site. The applicant proposes to demolish the existing 4,800 square foot
restaurant and construct a new 5,290 square foot restaurant with a 720 square foot outdoor patio, withinthe same general
area of the property. As a result, the proposed project falls under the maximum amount of development analyzed in SEIR
No. 340.
The proposed project would not result in any impacts beyond those identified in the previously certified SEIR No. 340.Any

Narrative Summary:Impacts analyzed in SEIR No. 340/No new impacts.
SEIR No. 340 analyzed the hazards and
hazardous materials impacts related to the implementation of the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan No. 92-2. Refer to SEIR No.
340, Section 4.3.7.
According to SEIR No. 340,buildout of the ARSP would have the potential to disturb lead-based paints (LBP) and asbestos-
containing materials (ACM) depending on the age of existing structures in the ARSP area. The existing building on the site
that is to be demolished was constructedin 1988, after issuance of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration
(OSHA) asbestos and lead standards for the workplace, there is no risk of exposure to asbestos-containing materials or lead-
based paint. With implementation of mitigation, including compliance with the State of California Hazardous Substances
Control Law, potential impacts related to hazardous material on or near the ARSP area would be reduced to less than
significant levels.
The proposed project would not result in any impacts beyond those identified in the previously certified SEIR No. 340. Any

Narrative Summary:Impacts analyzed in SEIR No. 340/No new impacts.
SEIR No. 340 analyzed the hydrology and
water qualityimpacts related to the implementation of the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan No. 92-2. Refer to SEIR No. 340,
Section 4.3.8.
According to SEIR No. 340, implementation of the ARSP project would result in short-term construction-related and long-
term operational water quality impacts. However, implementation of mitigation measures and compliance with the standard
requirements reduces these impacts. Althoughdirect impacts to the underlying groundwater resources would not occur,
indirect impacts associated with the anticipatedincrease in long-term demand for domestic water, landscape irrigation, and
maintenance activities would be significant. Implementation of the proposed mitigation would reduce demand for
groundwater resources.
As identified in SEIR No. 340, implementation of the ARSP project would result in site-specific changes to drainage
patterns on development sites, butwould not adversely impact regional hydrology or drainage flows in the surrounding area.
It was found that potential increases in impervious surfaces could increase runoff rates and volumes, while reducing
potential for soil erosion. Additionally, the ARSP project has the potential to increase runoff volumes and rates to exacerbate
existing deficiencies, potentially leading to localized street flooding.
Priority Project Preliminary Water Quality Management Plan Project Name: Panera Bread Bakerywas prepared for the
proposed project. Proposedon-site drainage of the improved area generally maintains the same drainage pattern as pre-
project drainage: All site drainage (building, rooftop, parking and drive area, walkways) drain to the east or west then to the
south. In the proposed project, runoff from replaced parking and driveway on the west side of the building and building
rooftops would be directed to an underground infiltration basin on the southwest of the site. Only excess runoff will
overflow to an existing catch basin nearby in existing driveway entrance via a 4” overflow pipe. Runoff from the northerly
portion of replaced parking and sidewalk area next to the building is directed to the west into a shallow above-ground
infiltration basin (Rain Garden), and only excess (bypassed) runoff will overflow to the existing nearby catch basin via a 4”
outlet pipe.
The proposed project would not result in any impacts beyond those identified in the previously certified SEIR No. 340. Any
impacts are addressed by mitigation measures set forth inMitigation Monitoring Plan 318, created for this project from
Updated and Modified Mitigation Monitoring Program No. 85C (SEIR No. 340 for the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan No.
92-2). Project impacts would be less than significant.

.SEIR No. 340 analyzed the land use impacts
related to the implementation of the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan No. 92-2. Refer to SEIR No. 340, Section 4.3.9.
SEIR No. 340 concluded that the build out of ARSP would be consistent with the respective
goals and policies of local and regional regulatory and planning documents. Specifically, the ARSP build out was found to
be consistent with and supportive of the three key principles set forth in the 2012–2035 Regional Transportation
Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy: mobility, economy, and sustainability. Additionally, SEIR No. 340 provided a
consistency analysis with all relevant goals and policies identified in the City of Anaheim General Plan.

Narrative Summary:Impacts analyzed in SEIR No. 340/No new impacts.
SEIR No. 340 analyzed the noise impacts
related to the implementation of the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan No. 92-2. Refer to SEIR No. 340, Section 4.3.10.
SEIR No. 340 determined that construction activities associated with the ARSP have the potential to significantly impact
noise-sensitive receptors. In addition, construction in the ARSParea would have the potential to cause vibration levels that
would be noticeable for short periods.
Development associated with the ARSPwould createlong-termland use compatibility issues related to noise and would
expose receptors to noise levels in excess of established standards, thereby resulting in potentially significant impacts.
However, it was determined that adherence to the standard requirements and implementation of the recommended mitigation
measures would reduce long-term, operational impacts.
The ARSP permits development of up to 75 hotel rooms per acre on the project site, or the equivalent of 600 square feet of
visitor serving uses per hotel room. Therefore, the noise analysis in SEIR No. 340 analyzed the construction and operational
impacts of the development of up to approximately 48 hotel rooms, or 28,800 square feet of visitor serving uses, on the 0.64
acre restaurant portion of the project site. The applicant proposes to demolish the existing 4,800 square foot restaurant and
constructa new 5,290 square foot restaurant with a 720 square foot outdoor patio, withinthe same general area of the
property.As a result, the proposed project falls under the maximum amount of development analyzed in SEIR No. 340.
The proposed project would not result in any impacts beyond those identified in the previously certified SEIR No. 340. Any
impacts are addressed by mitigation measures set forth in Mitigation Monitoring Plan 318, created for this project from

SEIR No. 340 determined development of the project area would have a substantial demand for fire and police protection
services and would indirectly result in the demand for school services, parks, and libraries.
The ARSP permits development of up to 75 hotel rooms per acre on the project site, or the equivalent of 600 square feet of
visitor serving uses per hotel room. Therefore, the public services analysis in SEIR No. 340 analyzed the operational impacts
of the development of up to approximately 48 hotel rooms, or 28,800 square feet of visitor serving uses, on the 0.64 acre

Narrative Summary: Impacts analyzed in SEIR No. 340/No new impacts.
SEIR No. 340 analyzed the transportation and
traffic impacts related to the implementation of the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan No. 92-2. Refer to SEIR No. 340, Section
4.3.14.
As evaluated in SEIR No. 340, traffic impacts associated with buildout of the ARSP would result in significant impacts at 21
area intersections, 1 arterial segment, and 3 freeway ramp termini intersections. However, after implementation of the
identified mitigation measures, these impacts would be reduced to less than significant levels for all but nine intersections
(Euclid Street/Katella Avenue, Disneyland Drive/Ball Road, Disneyland Drive/West Street/Katella Avenue, Harbor
Boulevard/Ball Road, Anaheim Boulevard/Haster Street/Katella Avenue, State College Boulevard/Katella Avenue, State
College Boulevard/Orangewood Avenue, State College Boulevard/The City Drive/Chapman Avenue, Orangewood
Avenue/State Route [SR] 57 Southbound Ramps) and 1 ramp termini intersection (Orangewood Avenue/SR-57 Southbound
Ramps). It was identified that these intersections would remain significant and unavoidable because of the infeasibility of
mitigation measures due to high project cost or the inability to undertake right-of-way acquisitions as a matter of policy to
preserve existing businesses, environmental constraints, or jurisdictional considerations. The Anaheim City Council adopted
a Statement of Overriding Considerations with regard to these potential deficiencies. Additionally, SEIR No. 340 indicated
no impacts would occur on intersections identified in the Congestion Management Program (CMP) for Orange County.
The proposal includes a total of 295 parking spaces to be shared by restaurant patrons, hotel self-parking and hotel valet
parking. Variance 2014-04970 is requested to provide for a total of 295 parking spaces rather than the 454 required spaces
(Hotel: 406; Restaurant: 48). The parking study demonstrates that there is enough parking on-site as the peak times of the
hotel and restaurant do not overlap. The shared parking peak is 256parking spacesfrom 10:00am-12:00pm.In addition, this
project will not create more than 100 peak hour trips, therefore additional traffic analysis was not necessary.
The ARSP permits development of up to 75 hotel rooms per acre on the project site, or the equivalent of 600 square feet of
visitor serving uses per hotel room. Therefore, the traffic analysis in SEIR No. 340 analyzed the operational impacts of the
development of up to approximately 48 hotel rooms, or 28,800 square feet of visitor serving uses, on the 0.64 acre restaurant
portion of the project site. The applicant proposes to demolish the existing 4,800 square foot restaurant and construct a new
5,290 square foot restaurant with a 720 square foot outdoor patio, withinthe same general area of the property.As a result,
the proposed project falls under the maximum amount of development analyzed in SEIR NO. 340and, would not exceed the
maximum amount of tripspreviously analyzed.
The proposed project would not result in any impacts beyond those identified in the previously certified SEIR No. 340. Any
impacts are addressed by mitigation measures set forth in Mitigation Monitoring Plan 318, created for this project from

Narrative Summary:Impacts analyzed in SEIR No. 340/No new impacts.
SEIR No. 340 analyzed theimpacts toutilities
and service systems related to the implementation of the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan No. 92-2. Refer to SEIR No. 340,
Section 4.3.15.
SEIR No. 340 identified that buildout of the ARSP would exceed capacities of existing water facilities; however, the
projected water demand associated with buildout of the ARSP would be accommodated through existing and projected
-21-
supplies.
According to SEIR No. 340, the wastewater treatment requirements of the Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board
(RWQCB) would not be exceeded by buildout of the ARSP. SEIR No. 340 identified that buildout of the ARSP would
increase sewage flows in existing sewer lines and trunks serving the area, resulting in several sewer lines becoming
deficient; however, this impact would be mitigated to less than significant level. Additionally, it was determined that build
out of the ARSP evaluated in SEIR No. 340 would increase sewage flows by approximately 323,656 gallons per day (gpd)
in thePR District and 2.1 million gallons per day (mgd) in the C-R District and that these increases in sewage flow would be
accommodated by available capacity at Orange County Sanitation District (OCSD) Treatment Plant No. 1.
According to SEIR No. 340, buildout of the ARSP area would result in an increased demand for electricity. Compliance
with the standard requirements and implementation of the proposed mitigation measures would reduce anticipated demand
through conservation efforts. It is expected that the existing electrical distribution system and future planned improvements
would adequately accommodate the anticipated demand.
According to SEIR No. 340, buildout of the ARSP has the potential to worsen several existing deficiencies in the City’s
storm drain system. However, participation in the City’s Master Plan of Storm Drains and related Infrastructure
Improvement (Fee) Program would assist in mitigating existing and future storm drainage system deficiencies.
According to SEIR No. 340, Southern California Gas Company (SCGC) indicated that natural gas service to the ARSP can
be provided from an existing gas main that is accessible from various locations in the ARSP area. The service would be
provided in accordance with the SCGC’s policies and extension rules on file with the California Public Utilities
Commission.
Buildout of the ARSP wouldgenerate an estimated109,514pounds of solid waste per day or approximately 19,986 tons of
solid waste annually. Buildout of the ARSP would add approximately 19,986tons of solid waste annuallyto existing solid
waste facilities and capacity, which would impact the landfill system. However, the buildout of the ARSP could be
accommodated within the permitted capacity of the County’s landfill capacity. In addition, once the Alpha Olinda Landfill
closes in 2021, capacity would exist for buildout of the ARSP in the Frank R. Bowerman Landfill.
AT&T would serve the ARSP area. According to SEIR No. 340, it was determined that AT&T can provide telephone,
digital cable, and high-speed internet servicesand that the ARSP area canbe served by Time Warner Cable with the existing
cable resources available to the site.
The ARSP permits development of up to 75 hotel rooms per acre on the project site, or the equivalent of 600 square feet of
visitor serving uses per hotel room. Therefore, the utilities and servicesanalysis in SEIR No. 340 analyzed the operational
impacts of the development of up to approximately 48 hotel rooms, or 28,800 square feet of visitor serving uses, on the 0.64
acre restaurant portion of the project site. The applicant proposes to demolish the existing 4,800 square foot restaurant and
construct a new 5,290 square foot restaurant with a 720 square foot outdoor patio, withinthe same general area of the
property.Asa result, the proposed project falls under the maximum amount of development analyzed in SEIR NO. 340 and
therefore, would not exceed the maximum demand for utilities and service systemspreviously analyzed.
The proposed project would not result in any impacts beyond those identified in the previously certified SEIR No. 340. Any
impacts are addressed by mitigation measures set forth in Mitigation Monitoring Plan 318, created for this project from
Updated and Modified Mitigation Monitoring Program No. 85C (SEIR No. 340 for the Anaheim Resort Specific Plan No.

SUBJECT:CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2015-05788AND
VARIANCE NO. 2015-05008
LOCATION:
2830 East Gretta Lane
APPLICANT/PROPERTY OWNER:
Theapplicantis Unitrax, represented
by Phillip Schwartze,andthepropertyowneris TaorminaIndustries.
REQUEST:
The applicant requests approval of aconditionalusepermitto
establish anautomotive differentialrepair and sales facility for commercial and
personal vehicles. The applicant also requests a variance to allowfewerparking
spacesthan required by the Zoning Code.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission adopt
the attached resolution,determining that this request is categorically exempt from
further environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (Class
1,Existing Facilities)and approving Conditional Use Permit No. 2015-05788and
Variance No. 2015-05008.
BACKGROUND:
This 0.6-acre property is developed with a10,190square foot
industrial building and is located in the Northeast Area Specific Plan, Development
Area 1-Industrial (SP94-1, DA1).The General Plan designates this property for
industrialuses.Surrounding land uses are industrial in all directions.
PROPOSAL
: The applicant would like to relocate an existingautomotive differential
and drive trainsales andservicebusinessto this property.The business sells new and
used differentialsand provides repair services mainly for commercial customers, with a
small portion of the business providing repairs for the general public. Most
differentialsare removed from commercial vehicles off-site and delivered to the
business for repair, although occasionally differentialsare removed and installed on-
site.
The building includes a large warehouse, offices, storage and a break room.The
property also has existing outdoor storage areas that are completely screened from
view. No exterior or interior changes to the building are proposed at this time.The
hours of operation would be 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday,with a

Page 2 of 2
ANALYSIS
:
Conditional Use Permit:The sales, warehousing, and modification of differential and drivetrains
are permitted by right in this zone. However, the on-site vehicle repair component of the business
operation requires approval of a conditional use permit in order to determine compatibility with
surrounding land uses. The propertyis surrounded by industrial land uses.The property is large
enough to allow circulation of vehiclesand equipment without impacting surrounding properties.
The building has three large loading doors that areideal for access to the interior of the building.
All vehicle repairswould be conducted indoorsand the majority of differentials would be shipped
to the facility and repaired on benches.This business has been in operation at a different location
in Anaheim for several years and has received no Code complaints regarding the operation of the
business.
Parking Variance:The Zoning Code requires 3.5 parking spaces per 1,000 square feet of gross
floor area for automotive repair. The proposed differential repair facility would require a total of
36 parking spaces. The property currently has 11 spaces. The applicant has submitted a parking
justification analysis that indicates the majority of the business is for commercial vehicles and
large differentials that are typically delivered on a pallet for repair. The 11 outdoor parking
spaces would only be utilized by seven employees and a limited number of customers. Site
inspections ofthe existing Unitrax facilitylocated on Sunshine Way in Anaheim indicates that
there are no more than four parking spaces being utilized at one time.Staff has conducted field
observations and verified the availability of adequate parking during peak hours at this existing
facility.Based upon the parking demand identified intheparking analysis and staff observations,
staff recommends approval of the parking variance as the parking spaces available on-site are
adequate to accommodate the demand.
CONCLUSION
:Staff believes the business is compatible with the surrounding industrial land
uses. In addition, there is adequate parking to accommodate the proposed use.Therefore, staff
recommends approval of the parking variance and the conditional use permit.

A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSIONOF THE
CITY OF ANAHEIM APPROVING CONDITIONAL USE PERMITNO. 2015-05788AND
VARIANCE NO. 2015-05008 AND MAKINGCERTAIN FINDINGS IN CONNECTION
THEREWITH
(DEV2015-00027)
(2830 EAST GRETTA LANE)
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Anaheim (the "Planning
Commission") did receive a verified petition to approve (i) Conditional Use Permit No. 2015-
05788to permitdifferential repair and sales facility for commercial vehicles and automobiles,
and (ii) Variance No. 2015-05008to allow fewer parking spaces than required by the Anaheim
Municipal Code (the "Code") (collectively referred to herein as the "Proposed Project") for
premises located at that certain real property at 2830 East Gretta Lanein the City of Anaheim,
County of Orange, State of California, as generally depicted on the map attached hereto as
Exhibit Aand incorporated herein by this reference (the "Property"); and
WHEREAS, the Property is approximately 0.6 acres in size and is currently
developed with an industrial building. The Anaheim General Plan designates the Property for
Industrialland uses. The Property is located in the Industrial Area (Development Area 1) of the
Northeast Area Specific Plan Area and is subjectto the zoning and development standards of
Chapter 18.120 (Northeast Area Specific Plan No. 94-1 (SP 94-1) Zoning and Development
Standards) of the Code. The underlying base zone for the Property is the "I" Industrial Zone; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did hold a public hearing at the Civic Center
in the City of Anaheim on April 6, 2015at 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) ofthe Code, to hear and consider evidence for and against proposedConditional
Use Permit No. 2015-05788 and Varaince No. 2015-05008, 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 (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
-1-PC2015-***
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. 2015-05788, does find
and determine the following:
1.The request for a conditional use permit to permit a differential sales and repair
facility is properly one for which a conditional use permit is authorizedby Code
Section No 18.120.050.050.0505, subject to the imposition of conditions of
approval.
2.The conditional use permit, under the conditions imposed, will not adversely
affect the surrounding land uses and the growth and development of the area
because the Property is developed with an industrial building and is surrounded
by other industrial uses.
3.The size and shape of the Property is adequate to allow the full operation of the
proposed use in a manner not detrimental to the particular area or to the health,
safety and general welfare.
4.The traffic generated by the use would notimpose an undue burden upon the
streets and highways designed and improved to carry the traffic in the area
because the transmission repair facility only services large commercial
transmissions that are delivered to the site.
5.The granting of ConditionalUse Permit No. 2015-05788 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.
WHEREAS, based upon the parking justification letter submitted by the applicant,
the Planning Commission does further find and determine that the request for a variance for less
parking than required by the Code should be approved for the following reasons:
SECTION NO. 18.42.040.010Minimumnumber of parking spaces.
(36 spaces required; 11spaces proposed)
1.Based, in part, upon a review of the findings of a parking justification analysis
submitted by the applicant, that the variance, under the conditions imposed, will
not cause fewer off-street parking spaces to be provided for the proposed use
than the number of such spaces necessary to accommodate all vehicles
attributable to such use under the normal and reasonably foreseeable conditions
of operation of such use because majority of the repair would be for commercial
vehicles and the repairs to the general public would be minimal;
2.That the variance, under the conditions imposed, will not increase the demand
and competition for parking spaces upon the public streets in the immediate
vicinity of the proposed use because the on-site parking will adequately
accommodate the peak parking demands of the proposed automotiverepair
facility;
-2-PC2015-***
3.That the variance, under the conditions imposed, will not increase the demand
and competition for parking spaces upon adjacent private property in the
immediate vicinity of the proposed use because the on-site parking for the
automotiverepair facility will adequately accommodate peak parking demands
of the use on the site;
4.That the variance, under the conditions imposed, will not increase traffic
congestion within the off-street parking areas or lots provided for the proposed
use because the project site provides adequate ingress and egress points to the
property and are designed to allow for adequate on-site circulation; and
That the variance, under the conditions imposed, will not impede vehicular
5.
ingress to or egress from adjacent properties upon the public streets in the
immediate vicinity of the proposed use because the project site has existing
ingress or egress access points that are designed to allow adequate on-site
circulation and,therefore,will not impede vehicular ingress to or egress from
adjacent properties upon the public streets in the immediate vicinity of the
industrial property.
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 that the Planning Commission does hereby
approve Conditional Use Permit No. No. 2015-05788and Variance No. 2015-05008, contingent
upon and subject totheconditions of approval set forthin Exhibit Battached heretoand
incorporated herein by this reference, whichare hereby found to be a necessary prerequisite to
the proposed use of the Property underVariance No. 2015-05008andConditional Use Permit
No. 2015-05788in 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 isestablished 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.
-3-PC2015-***
BE IT FURTHERRESOLVED 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.

CONDITONAL USE PERMIT
2830 E. Gretta Lane
Unitrax Drive train has an existing facility in Anaheim at 1280 N. Sunshine Way, in an industrial
area.Unitrax is a local Orange County company that wishes to relocate to a bigger and more
modern facility at the building vacated by DARTCO transmission repair, who relocated to an
even larger facility.
The existing Unitrax drive train facility has operated for a number of years and done so without
complaint. Unitrax rebuilds large vehicle and automotive differentials and drivelines on vehicles
which arefully removed and placed on the bench, therefore very few inoperable vehicles require
temporary parking. The “on- vehicle” repair work requires Unitrax to have new vehicle lifts
installed in the building.Unitrax also sellsrelated differential and driveline parts on both a
resale (90%) and retail (10%) basis.
The Zoning Code requires 36 parking and 11 are provided. 11 spaces is more than adequate
since Unitrax works on commercial drive trains, a specialty repair, which does not have the need
for extensive customer parking due to their unique business clientele. There are a total of seven
employees and the remaining parking spaces are more than sufficient for the limited number of
customers. The Anaheim Municipal Code does not differentiate between heavy vehicle and auto
repair specialties such as the drive trainrepairs to the general public; therefore the application for
an automobile parking standard is inappropriate for their particular type of business and limited
employee base.
The 2830 Gretta Lane building is ideally suited for the business relocation and provides the room
needed for internal storage and expansion. The available parking at the new Gretta Lane
building is double the parking that is available at the existing Sunshine Way facility and more
than adequate to meet their well proven parking needs for working personnel and occasional
drive up commercial or public clients.
The existing zoning provides for consideration of a Conditional Use Permit for various
automotive repair facilities so that the City might apply appropriate conditions of approval to
assure land use compatibility.
The size and shape of the new existing building and the high ceilings, 17’, easily accommodate
lifts and the 3 large loading doors provide excellent interior access for large vehicles.

April 6, 2015
Page 2of 2
ANALYSIS:
The proposed reclassification of these parcels to the Public Recreation Zone would
implement the “Parks”General Plan land use designation on the parcels. The reclassification
would be consistent with the existing public park (Betsy Ross Park) and the proposed future
development of a YMCA facility on the undeveloped portion of the property.
The reclassification of these properties to the PR zone would be consistent with, and assist with
implementation of the following objectives, goals and policies of the Land Use and Green
Elements of the General Plan: provide for an adequate supply of parks; offer a broad range of
recreational opportunities; develop public/private partnerships; providerecreationaland program
opportunities in close proximity to neighborhoods;and, continue to providenecessary
community services and facilities.
CONCLUSION:
Staff believes the proposed zone change would implement the goals and
policies contained in the Land Use Element of the General Plan. Therefore, staff recommends
approvalof this rezoning request.

PLANNING COMMISSION REPORT

DATE:APRIL 6, 2015
SUBJECT:ZONING CODE AMENDMENT NO. 2015-00125 – AN
AMENDMENT TO TITLE 18 (ZONING) TO ADD A
DEFINITION OF “FIREWORKS”AND TO PERMIT THEIR
SALE AS A TEMPORARY USE WITHIN THE ARENA
DISTRICT OF THE PLATINUM TRIANGLE MIXED USE
(PTMU) OVERLAY ZONE
REQUEST:
This is a City-initiated amendment to Title 18 (Zoning) of the Anaheim
Municipal Code to add a definition of “fireworks” and to permit the sale of fireworks
as a temporary use within the Arena District of the Platinum TriangleMixed Use
Overlay Zone.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission, by
motion, determine that this actioniscategoricallyexempt from further environmental
review under the California Environmental Quality Act (Class 4,Minor Alterations
to Land) and recommend to the City Council approval of Zoning Code Amendment
No. 2015-00125.
BACKGROUND:
In a special June 3, 2014, municipal election, Anaheim voters
voted to repeal Section 6.40.030 of the Anaheim Municipal Code (AMC), which
prohibits the retail sale, possession or use of safe and sane fireworks in the City
except pursuant to a public display permit issued by the Fire Chief. The measure
also authorized the City Council to regulate safe and sane fireworks. In response to
the passage of Measure E, City staff has prepared a package of potential amendments
to the AMC that would collectively allow the City to regulate the sale and use of
fireworks. These Code amendments, which must be reviewed and approved by the
City Council prior to becoming effective, pertain to Title 6 (Public Health and
Safety) and Title 18 (Zoning) of the AMC. The proposed amendments to Title 6
relate to the sale and use of fireworkswhile the amendments to Title 18 (Zoning
Code) relate to thelocation of fireworkssales. While the regulation of the use and
sale of fireworks are matters within the purview of the City Council, a change to the
Zoning Code to define the location of where fireworks can be sold is subject to
review by the Planning Commission and its recommendation to the City Council.
Staffhas recommended one location within the City for the sale of safe and sane
fireworks, namely property located within the Arena District of the Platinum
Triangle Mixed Use Overlay Zone, which is the location of the Honda Center.

ZONING CODE AMENDMENTNO. 2015-00125
April 6, 2015
Page 2of 3
PROPOSAL:
This proposal would amend the Zoning Code to define “Fireworks” as those “Safe
and Sane Fireworks,” that are subject to the California State Fireworks Law and the California
Health and Safety Code. This proposal would also amend the Zoning Code to permit the sales of
safe and sane fireworks as a temporary use in the Arena District of the Platinum Triangle Mixed
Use Overlay Zone and clarify that temporary uses in the Platinum Triangle are exempt from the
requirement to enter into a development agreement with the City. As proposed, the sale of
fireworks at any other location in the City would not be allowed.
ANALYSIS
:In order to implement Measure E, the Zoning Code must be amended to allow the
sale of safe and sane fireworks as a permitted temporary use and to identify the locations where the
sales may occur. The approach of regulating fireworks sales as a permitted temporary use is in
keeping with the manner in which the City regulates other seasonal salesactivities, including
carnivals, Christmas tree lots and pumpkin patches, which are minor temporary use of land having
negligible or no permanent effects on the environment, and will not cause a significant effect on
the environment and, therefore, categorically exempt from the provisions of the California
Environmental Quality Act.
Staff believes that the initial year of fireworks sales should be viewed as a pilot program. As such,
staff is recommending a conservative approach towards managing first year sales. The proposed
Zoning Code amendment would authorize a single point of sale as opposed to allowing multiple
saleslocationsin other parts or zones of the City.The single sale location recommended by staff
is at the Honda Center. Establishing a single point of sale would allow Fire Department staff to
efficiently and effectively monitor sales activity in a manageable environmentduring the initial
year of sales.The Honda Center is ideal as a single point of sale becausethe site is designed to
handle large crowds and associated vehicular traffic volumes. It is anticipated that fireworks sales
would take place in a temporary on-site structure in the parking lot that would be sited in a manner
that has minimal impacts to the venue’s operation and surrounding propertiesand in accordance
with the State Fireworks Law.
The recommendation of the Planning Commission will be forwarded to the City Council. At that
time, City staffwill concurrently recommend that the City Council consider a separateordinance
that will, if adopted, amend Title 6 of the AMC to permit the sale and discharge of safe and sane
fireworks within certain areas of the City. If the City Council adopts the recommended
amendments to the AMC and fireworks sales and use are authorized to occur in the City,staff will
subsequently analyze the results of the initial program and report back to the City Council with its
findingsto enable the City Council to determine how and to what extend the sale and discharge of
fireworks in the City should continue.
The Honda Center property is located within the Arena District of the Platinum Triangle Mixed
Use (PTMU) Overlay Zone. Developers of certain “primary” uses within the PTMU Overlay
Zone, such as residential developments, are required to enter into a standardized development
agreement with the City. However, certain types of projects, including remodels or minor building
expansions, are exempt from the need to enter into such an agreement. The proposed Zoning Code
amendment would clarify that temporary usesin the PTMU, including fireworks sales, would also
be exempt from the need to enter into a development agreement.
ZONING CODE AMENDMENTNO. 2015-00125
April 6, 2015
Page 3 of 3
CONCLUSION:
The proposed Code amendment would implement that portion of the voter-
approved Measure E within the scope of the Planning Commission's purview by defining
fireworks and regulating where fireworks may be sold. The Honda Center is an appropriate venue
at which to allow a single point of fireworks sales given its design and location. Staff recommends
approval of this Zoning Code Amendment.
