ITEM NO. 2
PLANNING COMMISSION REPORT
City of Anaheim
PLANNING AND BUILDING DEPARTMENT
DATE: AUGUST 7, 2017
SUBJECT: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2017-05919
VARIANCE NO. 2017-05093
LOCATION: 1921-1931 East Wright Circle (Brewheim Brewing Company)
APPLICANT/PROPERTY OWNER: The agent is Phillip Schwartze of the PRS
Group. The applicant is Brewheim Brewing Company represented by Dan Ward and
William Camacho. The property owner is Finn Holdings, LLC.
REQUEST: The applicant requests approval of the following land use entitlements to
permit alcoholic beverage manufacturing (a brewery) within an existing industrial
building: (i) a Conditional Use Permit to allow a tasting room that exceeds 750 square
feet; and, (ii) a Parking Variance to permit fewer parking spaces than required by the
Anaheim Municipal Code (Code).
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve
the attached resolutions, determining that this request is categorically exempt under
the California Environmental Quality Act (Class 1, Existing Facilities), and approving
Conditional Use Permit No. 2017-05919 and Variance No. 2017-05093.
BACKGROUND: On July 10, 2017, the Planning Commission reviewed a request
from the applicant to permit a 16,601 square foot brewery within an existing 22,945
square foot industrial building. The brewery would have a 2,379 square foot tasting
room and 1,676 square foot outdoor patio. The request included an Administrative
Adjustment to permit fewer parking spaces than required by the Code; and, a
Determination of Public Convenience or Necessity to permit on and off-premises sales
and consumption of alcoholic beverages. The Commission continued its deliberation
of the item to the August 7, 2017 Commission meeting in order to allow time for the
applicant to meet with the surrounding community to discuss concerns related to the
proposed project.
The proposed brewery would be located in the Platinum Triangle within the Industrial
Zone and the Platinum Triangle Mixed Use Overlay Zone. The General Plan
designates the property for Mixed Use land uses. Surrounding land uses include a self-
storage facility to the north, industrial uses to the east and south, the Stadium Lofts
Condominium Community (Stadium Lofts) to the southeast across Wright Circle, and
the Jefferson Platinum Triangle Apartment Community to the west, which is under
construction.

Prior to the July 10, 2017 Commission meeting, Staff received four emails from Stadium Lofts
residents which were included as attachments to the Planning Commission staff report.
Additionally, during the Commission meeting, five members of the public and the Commission
raised several concerns about the project. These issues related primarily to potential noise
concerns; however, other concerns included lighting, privacy, traffic, and parking. The
Commission continued the hearing to the August 7, 2017 meeting so that the applicant and staff
could further review these issues. Additionally, the Planning Commission directed the applicant
to meet with the residents at Stadium Lofts. To address these concerns, the applicant met with
the residents from Stadium Lofts on Thursday, July 20 at the Brewheim Brewing Company
location. Thirteen Stadium Lofts residents attended. In addition, staff was also present to provide
technical assistance.
The applicant has made several changes to the project based on the comments received prior to
and at the Commission meeting and from the discussion at the community meeting. The
applicant is proposing to reduce the size of the outdoor patio from 1,676 square feet to 1,000
square feet and the interior tasting room from 2,379 square feet to 2,120 square feet. The Code
permits a brewery with a 1,000 square foot patio by right; however, a tasting room that is over
750 square feet requires a conditional use permit. The applicant is also proposing to reduce its
hours of operation and incorporate architectural features on the outdoor patio to reduce potential
noise impacts. The proposal section below further describes these changes.
Due to the reduction in the size of the proposed outdoor patio area and interior tasting room,
there is a reduced parking demand. As a result, the property owner proposes to accommodate
parking on site without the originally proposed valet parking. Although the site can
accommodate more valet parking than standard parking because valet parking spaces can be
stacked, the removal of valet parking would remove noise impacts that may be associated with
patrons waiting for their cars, or issues with patrons parking off-site because they do not want to
use valet. As previously proposed, the Code required 99 spaces for the proposed brewery and
adjacent industrial tenant. To accommodate these uses, the applicant was proposing a
combination of 84 standard and valet parking spaces. This is a 16% deviation from Code
required parking, which is subject to the approval of an Administrative Adjustment. With the
smaller tasting room and outdoor patio, the Code requires 84 parking spaces for the brewery and
adjacent industrial tenant. To accommodate these uses, the applicant is proposing 61 parking
spaces (no valet). This is a 28% deviation from the Code required parking and is subject to the
approval of a Parking Variance. An analysis to support this Parking Variance follows later in
this report.
The proposed project requires a Type 23 (Small Beer Manufacturer- Brew Pub or Microbrewery)
license, which authorizes a brewery with an accessory tasting room. The California Department
of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) issues this license. Following the July 10, 2017
Commission meeting, City staff clarified with ABC that a Determination of Public Convenience
and Necessity for on and off premises sales of alcohol would not be required for a Type 23
License. Staff has subsequently removed the Determination of Public Convenience and
Necessity from the list of requested/required entitlements.

PROPOSAL: Other than the changes described above, the applicant has not made any other
changes to the proposed brewery. The applicant is continuing to propose a 16,601 square foot
brewery within an existing industrial building. The adjacent 6,344 square foot industrial tenant
would continue to occupy the remaining space in the 22,945 square foot industrial building. The
brewery would include a beer storage and manufacturing room; retail area; restrooms; 2,120
square foot tasting room; and a 1,000 square foot outdoor patio. The sale of beer for both on and
off-premises consumption would be limited to the product brewed on-site. The proposed tasting
room would be located within the building and the outdoor patio area would include seating, a
fire pit, and landscaping to serve as a green screen surrounding the outdoor patio to address
privacy and noise concerns. A grain silo would be located near the front entrance of the tasting
room. Access to the outdoor patio would be through the tasting room. Due to the reduction in
size of the proposed outdoor patio area and interior tasting room, there is a reduced parking
demand.
Conceptual Rendering (Outdoor Patio)
Brewing operations would involve five employees with the potential to increase to ten after
several years of operations. The tasting room would also include five to ten employees. The
applicant has indicated that peak operation of the manufacturing and tasting room would not
overlap and therefore it would be unlikely that more than ten employees would be on site at any
time. The applicant is not proposing a kitchen or any type of on-site food preparation. Any food
trucks provided on site would park at the rear of the building.
The applicant has not changed the requested hours of operation for beer manufacturing.
However, the applicant has reduced the hours of operation for the tasting room and the outdoor
patio. The following table shows the previous and proposed hours of operation.

FINDINGS AND ANALYSIS:
Conditional Use Permit: Before the Planning Commission may approve a conditional use permit,
it must make a finding of fact that the evidence presented shows that all of the following
conditions exist:
1) That the proposed use is properly one for which a conditional use permit is
authorized by the Code;
2) That the proposed use will not adversely affect the adjoining land uses, or the
growth and development of the area in which it is proposed to be located;
3) That the size and shape of the site proposed for the use is adequate to allow the full
development of the proposed use, in a manner not detrimental to either the
particular area or health and safety;
4) That the traffic generated by the proposed use will not impose an undue burden
upon the streets and highways designed and improved to carry the traffic in the
area; and
5) That the granting of the conditional use permit under the conditions imposed, if any,
will not be detrimental to the health and safety of the citizens of the City of
Anaheim.
Property owners within the Platinum Triangle Mixed Use Overlay Zone may develop their
properties in accordance with the Overlay Zone or the underlying base zone, which, in this case,
is the Industrial Zone. The property owner is electing to improve and operate the subject
property under the Industrial Zone. The Code permits Alcoholic Beverage Manufacturing by
right in the Industrial Zone. The Alcoholic Beverage Manufacturing use class consists of
establishments that produce or manufacture alcoholic beverages of all types. Businesses under
this use class may sell alcohol produced or manufactured on the alcoholic beverage
manufacturer’s licensed premises for On-Sale or Off-Sale consumption. Typical uses include
breweries, distilleries and wineries. Tasting rooms may be included in conjunction with the
manufacturing. A Conditional Use Permit is required if the tasting room is over 750 square feet
and/or if an outdoor patio that exceeds 1,000 square feet. Therefore, a Conditional Use Permit is
required for this request because the applicant is proposing a 2,120 square foot tasting room.
Staff does not anticipate that the addition of the larger tasting room would adversely affect the
adjoining land uses, if the business owner operates the use in a responsible manner and in
compliance with the recommended conditions of approval. These conditions include typical
Police Department conditions for similar uses, such as requiring that there shall be no admission
fee, cover charge, nor minimum purchase required. ABC LEAD (Licensee Education on Alcohol
and Drugs) training would be required for employees. In addition, the conditions of approval
require the brewery to cease the sale of beer 30 minutes prior to closing and limit the use of the
outdoor patio to 9:00 p.m. to reduce the potential for noise impacts upon adjacent residential
uses.

Although not being requested at this time, any future indoor entertainment, including live music,
would require approval of a separate Entertainment Permit. Through the permit review process,
staff would have the ability to require certain protections to ensure that the music does not
disturb any nearby residents. Any outdoor entertainment proposed in the future would be
significantly limited and only allowed up to four times a year through the issuance of a Special
Event Permit. Similar to an Entertainment Permit, a Special Even Permit could include
restrictions to ensure that such entertainment does not disturb surrounding properties. Any
outdoor entertainment in excess of the four events permitted by the Special Event Permit would
require a Conditional Use Permit.
Based on the resident meeting and the modifications made by the applicant, staff believes that
the applicant has addressed many of the original concerns regarding the project. The draft
resolution includes revised conditions of approval to address these concerns and capture the
modifications made by the applicant. Recommended conditions of approval include:
The tasting room shall close at 10:00 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and 12:00 a.m.
(midnight) on Friday and Saturday. Alcohol sales shall cease 30 minutes prior to the
closing of the tasting room.
The outdoor patio shall close at 9:00 p.m. daily.
There shall be no entertainment, amplified music or dancing permitted on the premises
at any time unless the property owner/tenant has obtained proper permits from the City
of Anaheim.
The property owner/tenant shall provide adequate lighting of parking lots, driveway,
circulation areas, aisles, passageways, recesses and grounds contiguous to buildings.
Lighting shall be of sufficient wattage to provide adequate illumination to make clearly
visible the presence of any person on or about the premises during the hours of
darkness and provide a safe, secure environment for all persons, property, and vehicles
on-site.
Traffic generated by the proposed project is consistent with the City’s General Plan and would
not create a significant traffic impact. Therefore, staff does not anticipate that the proposed
project would impose undue burden on the local streets and highways. Staff confirmed these
assumptions through its review of a Trip Generation Memorandum submitted by the applicant.
The memo indicated that the proposed use would not result in an excess of 100 vehicle trips. The
City’s Traffic Study Guidelines state that a traffic study is required when staff expects a project’s
trip generation to exceed 100 vehicle trips in the a.m. or p.m. peak hour. In this case, the Institute
of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Handbook, 9th Edition, estimates that the
project would generate 60 vehicle trips during the p.m. peak hour. The applicant has indicated
that peak operations would occur between 4:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m. The ITE Trip Generation
Handbook estimates that the previous industrial use would generate 17 p.m. peak hour trips;
therefore, the proposed use would result in an increase of 43 vehicle trips. The proposed project
would generate traffic well below the City’s Traffic Study threshold of 100 vehicle trips and
therefore, a traffic study is not required.

The proposed brewery is consistent with the goals and objectives of the General Plan because it
would contribute to the vitality of the Platinum Triangle as “a thriving economic center that
provides residents, visitors and employees with a variety of housing, employment, shopping and
entertainment opportunities. Based on the above factors, staff believes that the proposed use
would be compatible with the surrounding area and recommends approval of the Conditional
Use Permit.
Parking Variance: Before the Planning Commission may approve a parking variance, it must
make a finding of fact that the evidence presented shows that all of the following conditions
exist:
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
normal and reasonably foreseeable conditions of operation of such use;
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 use;
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 of the proposed use;
4) That the variance, under the conditions imposed, if any, will not increase traffic
congestion within the off-street parking areas or lots provided for the proposed use;
and
5) That the variance, under the conditions imposed, if any, will not impede vehicular
ingress to or egress from adjacent properties upon the public streets in the immediate
vicinity of the proposed use.
The Code establishes the parking demand for the project by combining all existing and proposed
uses. The Code requires 84 parking spaces for the property, including the proposed project, as
shown in the following table. In addition, the table shows the proposed staggered hours of
operation. The applicant has indicated that peak demand for the tasting room and outdoor patio
would occur between 4:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. During this peak demand period, there would be no
demand for parking for the beer manufacturing and little or no parking demand for the other
industrial tenant. Without the industrial tenant and the alcohol beverage manufacturing, the
demand for parking would be 53 spaces, which the property could accommodate with the 61
parking spaces available on-site.

Furthermore, since the project is located within the Platinum Triangle, it is within walking
distance to several planned and recently constructed residential developments. The applicant
states that the unique urban environment and the increase in rideshare services such as Uber and
Lyft reduces the reliance of customers on vehicles to access the brewery.
Based on the above information, staff believes that the number of parking spaces proposed
would be adequate to accommodate the proposed brewery without impact to the surrounding
public streets or properties. Staff is recommending conditions of approval to ensure the
successful management of the on-site parking such as the requirement for, adequate lighting and
directional signs to the parking facilities.
Staff received five new emails in support of the proposed brewery and one new email in
opposition.
Environmental Impact Analysis: Staff recommends the Planning Commission find that the
effects of the proposed project are typical of those generated 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.

CONCLUSION: The applicant has designed the proposed establishment of the brewery and
tasting room primarily for the commercial production of beer for off-site distribution to retail
customers and restaurants. The tasting room and outdoor patio account for only a portion of the
business which will serve visitors and residents in the Platinum Triangle area. However, based
on concerns from the nearby residents, the applicant has agreed to reduce the outdoor patio and
interior tasting room in order to address some of the concerns raised by the residents. The revised
operations and recommended conditions of approval would ensure that the sale and consumption
of alcoholic beverages would be compatible with surrounding land uses. Because the nature of
the use is primarily beer manufacturing with an accessory component of retail sales and beer
tasting, staff believes it is compatible with the surrounding industrial uses, and recommends
approval of the request.

A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF
THE CITY OF ANAHEIM APPROVING CONDITIONAL USE
PERMIT NO. 2017-05919 AND VARIANCE NO. 2017-05093 AND MAKING
CERTAIN FINDINGS IN CONNECTION THEREWITH
(DEV2017-00051)
(1921-1931 EAST WRIGHT CIRCLE)
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Anaheim ("Planning Commission")
did receive a verified petition to approve (i) Conditional Use Permit No. 2017-05919 to permit
the establishment of a brewery, to include a tasting room and outdoor patio area and the on and
off-premises sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages within an existing industrial building;
and (ii) Variance No. 2017-05093 to permit fewer parking spaces than required by the Zoning
Code (herein referred to collectively as the "Proposed Project") at 1921-1931 East Wright Circle
in the City of Anaheim (the "Premises"), on that certain real property generally depicted on the
map attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by this reference (the "Property"); and
WHEREAS, the Property is approximately 1.38-acres in size and developed with an
existing industrial building. The Land Use Element of the Anaheim General Plan designates the
Property for “M-U” Mixed Use land uses. The Property is located in the “I” Industrial Zone and
the Platinum Triangle Mixed Use (PTMU) Overlay Zone. Generally, the development standards
and regulations of Chapter 18.20 (Platinum Triangle Mixed Use (PTMU) Overlay Zone) of the
Anaheim Municipal Code (the "Code") supersede the regulations of the underlying zone, i.e.,
that of the “I” Industrial. However, the provisions of Chapter 18.20 (Platinum Triangle Mixed
Use (PTMU) Overlay Zone) do not apply to parcels that have been, or are proposed to be,
developed entirely under the “I” Industrial Zone; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did hold a public hearing at the Civic Center in
the City of Anaheim on July 10, 2017, at 5:00 p.m., notice of said public hearing having been
duly given as required by law and in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 18.60 of the
Code, to hear and consider evidence and testimony for and against the Proposed Project and to
investigate and make findings and recommendations in connection therewith, and the Planning
Commission continued the item to the August 7, 2017 meeting; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did hold a public hearing at the Civic Center in
the City of Anaheim on August 7, 2017 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. 2017-05919 and Variance No. 2017-05093, and to investigate and make findings
and recommendations in connection therewith; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of the California
Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq.; herein referred to as
“CEQA”), the State of California Guidelines for the Implementation of the California
Environmental Quality Act (commencing with Section 15000 of Title 14 of the California Code
of Regulations; herein referred to as the "CEQA Guidelines"), and the City's Local CEQA
- 2 - PC2017-***
Procedure Manual, the City is the "lead agency" for the preparation and consideration of
environmental documents for the Proposed Project; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission finds and determines that the effects of the
Proposed Project are typical of those generated 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 the
CEQA Guidelines, the Proposed Project will not cause a significant effect on the environment
and is, therefore, categorically exempt from the provisions of CEQA; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission, after due inspection, investigation and study
made by itself and in its behalf, and after due consideration of all evidence and reports offered at
said hearing with respect to the request for Conditional Use Permit No. 2017-05919, does find
and determine the following:
1. The proposed request to permit a brewery and tasting room with on and off-premises
consumption of alcoholic beverages located in an existing industrial business complex is an
allowable use within the "I" Industrial Zone under subsection .010 of Section 18.10.030 (Uses)
of Chapter 18.10 (Industrial Zones) of the Code, subject to a conditional use permit and the
zoning and development standards of the "I" Industrial Zone.
2. The proposed request to permit a brewery and tasting room with on- and off-premises
consumption of alcoholic beverages 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 an industrial building and the proposed use of the Property as a
brewery and tasting room is compatible with the residential and industrial uses in the
surrounding area, subject to compliance with the conditions of approval contained herein.
3. The size and shape of the site is adequate to allow the full development of the
proposed use in a manner not detrimental to the particular area nor to the health, safety and
general welfare of the public because the Property is currently improved with an industrial
building, no expansion to the building is proposed, and sufficient parking will be provided on the
property based on the staggered hours of operation and a peak parking demand of 53 spaces for
the proposed use.
4. The traffic generated by permitting the brewery and tasting room with on- and off-
premises consumption of alcoholic beverages 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 permitted businesses within
the surrounding industrial business complex.
5. The granting of Conditional Use Permit No. 2017-05919, under the conditions
imposed will not be detrimental to the health and safety of the citizens of the City of Anaheim
as the proposed project will be compatible with the surrounding area through conditions of
approval for the use and is not a health or safety risk to the citizens of the City of Anaheim.
- 3 - PC2017-***
WHEREAS, based upon information contained in the letter of operation prepared by
the applicant, as well as City staff observations at the site, the Planning Commission does further
find and determine that the request for Variance No. 2017-05093 to permit less parking spaces
than required by the Code should be approved for the following reasons:
SECTION NO. 18.42.040.010 Minimum number of parking spaces.
(84 spaces required; 61 on-site spaces proposed)
1. That the variance, under the conditions imposed, will not cause fewer off-street
parking spaces to be provided for the all uses on the Property than the number of such spaces
necessary to accommodate all vehicles attributable to such uses under the normal and reasonably
foreseeable conditions of operation of such uses. Based on operating hours of the uses on site,
the proposed parking will be adequate to serve the needs of the proposed brewery and tasting
room as the peak hours of operation will not occur at the same time, and the uses will only
overlap for a 2 hour non-peak period. The brewery use is classified as an “alcohol manufacturing
with accessory on- and off-site consumption” and alcohol manufacturing use requires 21 spaces
per code; however, manufacturing hours of operation would cease regularly at 2:00 p.m. and
would only require a maximum of 10 spaces to accommodate 5-10 brewing employees during
this time. The tasting room hours are requested from 12:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. Sunday to
Thursday, 12:00 p.m. to 12:00 a.m. Friday and Saturday; however, the applicant has indicated
that peak demand would occur between 4:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.; therefore, during peak demand
for the tasting room would be 53 spaces and would be accommodated by the 61 on-site parking
spaces.
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 Property
because the proposed number of on-site parking spaces is sufficient to accommodate the needs of
the brewery and tasting room, which, through information provided by the applicant regarding
hours of operation and peak usage, is determined to be adequate to serve the needs of the
proposed and existing uses on site;
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 proposed number of parking spaces on-site will be sufficient to
accommodate the parking demands for uses proposed which have been described to maintain
non conflicting peak operating hours;
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
adequate ingress and egress points are provided at the front of the Property and parking is
proposed at the rear of the property; and
5. That the variance, under the conditions imposed, will not impede vehicular ingress
to or egress from adjacent properties upon the public streets in the immediate vicinity of the
proposed use because the proposed use can accommodate all parking demands on site with the
available parking as the uses will operating during opposite peak hours and parking is proposed
at the rear of the property; and

PARKING JUSTIFICATION LETTER
Revised 12/2015
Why do I need a parking variance? The Anaheim Municipal code includes regulations on the minimum
number of parking spaces required to serve various types of uses or businesses. For example, a typical office
building is required to have 4 parking spaces for every 1,000 square feet of gross floor area. By contrast, a
medical office building is required to have 6 parking spaces for the same 1,000 square feet of floor area.
These requirements are based on industry standards. A parking variance is required when the number of
parking spaces on a property does not meet the number of parking spaces required by the municipal code.
For example, if an industrial building that was originally intended to be used for warehouse with few
employees is converted to a church with large congregation, but has peak hours opposite of the
surrounding industrial uses, a variance can take these circumstances into account.

RE: PARKING JUSTIFCATION LETTER FOR: BREWHEIM BREWING COMPANY
LOCATED AT 1931 E WRIGHT CIRCLE ANAHEIM CA 92086
Introduction
The purpose of this parking justification letter is to determine the parking demand for a
Production Brewery. The City of Anaheim Municipal Code’s parking requirement for the
proposed use is 84 stalls based on the attached parking tabulation for the entire property. The
property has 61 stalls available.
Operational Characteristics
The project consists of a Production Brewery by day (6 AM to 2 PM) and a tasting room in the
afternoon/ evening (12 PM to 10 PM with 12 AM closures Fridays and Saturdays). The building is
in an industrial zone with close proximity to residential units and entertainment venues within
the Platinum Triangle.

Proposed Parking Demand at Project Site
Counts of proposed parking utilization based on the required parking counts used by each

Note: Manufacturing hours are from 6 Am to 2 Pm Monday through Friday. The tasting room
opens from 12 noon to 10 pm (or midnight Friday and Saturday). For very few hours, uses for
both tasting room and manufacturing rarely overlap. When they do overlap, either use would
be during non-peak hours.
Other Circumstances
Other circumstances exist at the project site and/or the proposed use that further reduces the
parking demand and includes:
Circumstance Available? Description
Site Served by Public
Transportation?
Yes Bus Stop State College – Howell 0.12 Miles away & Katella –
State College 0.16 Miles away. Anaheim Resort Transport

Other
Circumstances?
Yes § Shuttle Service: Brewheim is within a
block of the Anaheim Resort
Transportation Network (ART) stop,
which handles shuttle service between
tourist attraction venues, destination
and tourism support facilities such as
hotels and entertainment venues.
§ Pedestrian Traffic
• High density of existing and
planned residential within
walking distance.
• Walking distances from large
parking facilities such as the
stadium.
§ Ride Share: Another trend is the
pervasive use of ride share programs
such as Uber or Lyft.
§ Public Transportation: The Orange
County Transit Authority (OCTA)
provides three bus stops on the corner
of Katella and College and two bus
stops between Katella and Auburn Way,
which are all one block away from the
brewery.
Analysis
Due to the disproportionate under-utilization of personnel loading needed to operate a
production brewery during manufacturing hours of 6 AM to 2 PM, the actual parking situation
lends to a surplus of available parking spaces to accommodate the secondary function of the
brewery, which is the tasting room. Since the tasting room operates mostly when the
production area is closed, this opens almost every parking stall for the public to utilize.
Per strict compliance for parking the building is required to have a total of 84 parking spots.
• 13,526 Square feet of manufacturing, at 1.55 parking spots per 1,000 square feet requires
21 parking spots.
• Adjacent tenant occupies 6,344 Square Feet of Warehouse Space. At 1.55 parking spots
per 1,000 square feet, this requires 10 parking spots.
• At maximum, 10 employees are needed to support brewing operations during the hours
of 6 AM to 2 PM.
• No guests or day traffic is anticipated other than normal operations such as delivery
services and business-related site visits as production brewing operations is closed to the
public.
• Most of the space used in a production brewery is the storage of raw materials, finished
product, and fermentation space which requires little personnel resources to manage.
• Daily, starting at noon, the tasting room will be open to the public. There will be an
overlap of two hours where production and tasting room will be operating at the same
time.
o Tasting room traffic and personnel resources will be light between noon to 2 pm.
This kind of traffic is what is experienced by similar production brewery tasting
rooms in the area such as Noble Ale Works, Bottle Logic, Bruery, etc.
o The total allocation for tasting room is set at 53 parking stalls (2,120 sqft at 17
stalls per 1,000 sqft plus 1,000 square feet of patio space.)

Subject: CUP2017-05919: Brewheim – 1931 E. Wright Circle
Parking Justification Memo
This memo summarizes the parking justification for the proposed occupancy of 22,945 square-
feet (SF) of a currently vacant warehouse space.
Project Location and Description
1931 and 1921 East Wright Circle is one contingent, stand-alone tilt-up building designed to
house two separate warehouse tenants. For the purposes of this report, the building will be
referred to as 1931 E. Wright Circle as Brewheim Brewing Company will be the sole tenant.
The intended operation for Brewheim Brewing Company (Brewheim) is a small Craft
Beer Manufacturing Facility or Type 23 facility per the California State Alcohol Beverage Control
(ABC) Board. Since a tasting room is a permitted accessory component to production,
Brewheim will install a tasting room on site.
As currently proposed, the building will then be developed to accommodate 13,526 SF of
Brewery Manufacturing, 6,344 SF of Warehousing of Raw Materials and Finished Production,
and 2,120 SF of Tasting Room. Additionally, a 1,000 SF patio is planned to sit adjacent to the
Tasting Room. No food or kitchen facilities will be built within the premises.

Production Brewing and Tasting Room Parking &
Justification
The demand for daytime brewing operations is minimal.
• Typical hours for brewers start at 6 AM and complete at 2 PM (Brewer’s shift).
o Brewing operations will require 5 employees and may ramp up to 10 employees
after several years of operations.
• Typical hours for tasting room start at 12 PM and end at 10 PM from Sunday through
Thursday and 12 PM to 12 AM Fridays and Saturdays, which will be covered in two
separate shifts.
o Tasting room personnel will consist of an employee density between 5 to 10
personnel to support heavy operations.
o Tasting room peak hours of operations range from 4 pm to 9 pm.
Per strict compliance for parking the building is required to have a total of 84 parking spots.
• 13,526 Square feet of manufacturing, at 1.55 parking spots per 1,000 square feet
requires 21 parking spots.
• Adjacent tenant occupies 6,344 Square Feet of Warehouse Space. At 1.55 parking
spots per 1,000 square feet, this requires 10 parking spots.
• At maximum, 10 employees are needed to support brewing operations during the
hours of 6 AM to 2 PM.
• No guests or day traffic is anticipated other than normal operations such as delivery
services and business-related site visits as production brewing operations is closed to
the public.
• Most of the space used in a production brewery is the storage of raw materials,
finished product, and fermentation space which requires little personnel resources to
manage.
• Daily, starting at noon, the tasting room will be open to the public. There will be an
overlap of two hours where production and tasting room will be operating at the
same time.
o Tasting room traffic and personnel resources will be light between noon to 2
pm. This kind of traffic is what similar production brewery tasting rooms
experience in the surrounding area such as Noble Ale Works, Bottle Logic, and
Bruery.

o The total allocation for tasting room is set at 53 parking stalls (2,120 sqft at 17
stalls per 1,000 sqft plus 1,000 square feet of patio space.)
o Other factors to take into consideration that will alleviate the parking situation
are the following:
§ Shuttle Service: Brewheim is within a block of the Anaheim Resort
Transportation Network (ART) stop, which handles shuttle service
between tourist attraction venues, destination and tourism support
facilities such as hotels and entertainment venues.
§ Pedestrian Traffic
• High density of existing and planned residential within walking
distance.
• Walking distances from large parking facilities such as the

§ Ride Share: Another trend is the pervasive use of ride share programs
such as Uber or Lyft.
§ Public Transportation: The Orange County Transit Authority (OCTA)
provides three bus stops on the corner of Katella and College and two bus
stops between Katella and Auburn Way, which are all one block away
from the brewery.
Conclusion
Due to the disproportionate under-utilization of personnel loading needed to operate a
production brewery during manufacturing hours of 6 AM to 2 PM, the actual parking situation
lends to a surplus of available parking spaces to accommodate the secondary function of the
brewery, which is the tasting room.
Since the tasting room operates mostly when the production area is closed, this opens every
parking stall on-site for the public to utilize.

Hi,
I am a resident at the Stadium Lofts next to the proposed site of Brewheim off of State College and Katella. I
know there are a few residents that are apposed to the brewery moving in, but my wife and I are in full support. I love
the idea! I look at it as a perk of living there! Walking distance to a brewery, yes please!
I know there’s some concern about rowdy crowds and everything else that comes along with it, but I’ve
frequented Bottle Logic, and I’ve frequented the Bruery in Placentia, and many other breweries, and the environments
their couldn’t be further from what these people are fearing. I feel that the nay sayers are fearing a dive bar, but
Brewheim isn’t going to be that.
We’ll hopefully be welcoming Breheim to the neighborhood real soon! I can’t wait to take my in‐laws there
when they fly in next!

Dear Lindsay Ortega,
I am writing to you today in regards of the Anaheim Brewheim Project. My Name is Michael Espinoza
and I have owned my unit for the past seven years at the Stadium Lofts
I want to inform you that I am in full support of this project and I am happy that something will be built
that will bring the community together and deter the homeless from setting up camp. I have no issues
with the hours of operations since the side that I live on overlooks a 24 hour AM-PM/gas station. In
other words, my neighbors and I have no issues with the noise that a brewery would bring because
we encounter a high amount of noise from the busy street of Katella, the nomad homeless people
wondering Katella at all hours of the night and the traffic that occurs at the gas station/AM-PM.
From my experience, breweries have only encourage community growth and city revenue. I'm pretty
sure that Brewheim will not attract the wrong type of crowd because they will not run their
establishment like a liquor store/dive bar.
If there is anything that I can do, please do not hesitate and let me know.
Best regards,
Michael Espinoza

Ms. Ortega:
I am a resident of the Stadium Lofts at 1801 E. Katella Ave. I am writing to support the aforementioned permit
of a brewery.
I feel this permit will enhance the neighborhood and surrounding areas. I live in the area of the proposed
brewery and I am not worried about any conflicts as I'm sure the brewery will be managed properly.
I am emailing as I will not be in town to attend the council meeting. Thank you.

Hello
I am writing this email in support of the proposed brewery. I believe having a business open later and more
people in the area will lead to a safer neighborhood and less homeless presence.

Hello, I wanted to voice my support for the Brewheim project at 1921-1931 wright circle. Honestly I think more
people are in favor of the project than opposed, they just aren't saying anything because they're okay with it. I
know that's where I am, but figured I would send an email in support anyway.
The craft beer community in Anaheim is growing and I have thoroughly enjoyed the fruits of their labor. I live
in the Stadium Lofts community and regularly visit breweries throughout the city and I am all for adding
another one.
If I need to provide any more information for my support to be considered please let me know.
Thank you,

Hello,
Sending a quick note to express my support of the proposed Brewheim project. This would be a nice addition to the
community. I have been a home owner at the Stadium Lofts for 8 years now and this project supports the vision of the
Platinum Triangle as a whole. It will also do a decent job of keeping the homeless away. Currently, there are homeless
people that have set up shop in the back of the 1931 building and this will push them out.
Sincerely,
Anthony Pulsifer

I have a concern about the increase in traffic that would occur during peak times as people living in the area are
returning home.
Wright Circle is more of an ALLEY and the limited parking that is available, it does not make sense to have a
transit customer based business for the area as opposed to a commercial/warehouse business. People not
familiar or ignoring signage are making an ILLEGAL left turn onto State College, even though the sign is
Posted Right Turn ONLY, will only increase the possibility of an accident when you add alcohol to the
equation.
Also our gate for our parking structure is constantly broken with just the Angles Fans illegally parking in our
parking structure, and now you are going to allow people who cannot find parking to illegally park and damage
our parking structure seven days a week.
Thank you

DATE: JULY 10, 2017
SUBJECT: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2017-05919
ADMINISTRATIVE ADJUSTMENT NO. 2017-00406
DETERMINATION OF PUBLIC CONVENIENCE OR
NECESSITY NO. 2017-00136
LOCATION: 1921-1931 East Wright Circle (Brewheim Brewing Company)
APPLICANT/PROPERTY OWNER: The agent is Phillip Schwartze of the PRS
Group. The applicant is Brewheim Brewing Company represented by Dan Ward and
William Camacho. The property owner is Finn Holdings, LLC.
REQUEST: The applicant is requesting approval of the following entitlements:
1) A Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to permit a brewery with a 2,379
square foot tasting room and 1,676 square foot outdoor patio within an
existing industrial building;
2) An Administrative Adjustment to permit fewer parking spaces than
required by the Zoning Code; and,
3) A Determination of Public Convenience or Necessity to permit on and
off-premises sales and consumption of alcoholic beverages.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve
the attached resolutions, determining that this request is categorically exempt under

Page 2 of 8
PROPOSAL: The applicant is proposing to establish a 16,601 square foot brewery within an
existing industrial building. The remaining space in the building would continue to be occupied
by a 6,344 square foot existing industrial tenant. The brewery would include a beer storage and
manufacturing room; retail area; restrooms; 2,379 square foot tasting room; and a 1,676 square
foot outdoor patio. The sale of beer for both on and off-premises consumption would be limited
to the product brewed on-site. The proposed tasting room would be located within the building
and the outdoor patio area would include seating, a fire pit, and new grain silo. The applicant is
not proposing a kitchen or any type of on-site food preparation.
Rendering (Outdoor Patio)
The requested hours of operation for beer manufacturing would be from 6:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.
daily. The hours of operation requested for the tasting room would be from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00
a.m. daily. However, the applicant has indicated that the typical hours for the tasting room
would be from 12:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., with peak operating hours occurring between 6:00 p.m.
to 9:00 p.m. The outdoor patio would close by 9:00 p.m. daily. Brewing operations would
involve five employees with the potential to increase to ten after several years of operations.
However, even at peak production capabilities, production would require a maximum of eight
employees per shift. The tasting room would include 5 to 10 employees. The applicant has
indicated that peak operation of the manufacturing and tasting room would not overlap and
therefore it would be unlikely that more than 10 employees would be on site at any time. The
brewery would utilize the existing on-site parking to accommodate the use; however, due to a
deficit in the required parking spaces, the applicant is proposing a free valet service to ensure
that the property can accommodate parking for the proposed brewery. A valet booth would be

stationed near the entrance to the brewery, easily visible to patrons as they drive up to the
brewery. The applicant has indicated that they have not yet determined whether the valet
operations will be conducted by an employee or if they will contract with a professional valet
company. A draft condition of approval requires that the applicant submit a valet plan for review
and approval by the Planning Department and Police Department prior to operation of the tasting
room.

FINDINGS AND ANALYSIS:
Conditional Use Permit and Determination of Public Convenience or Necessity: Before the
Planning Commission may approve a conditional use permit, it must make a finding of fact that
the evidence presented shows that all of the following conditions exist:
1) That the proposed use is properly one for which a conditional use permit is
authorized by this Zoning Code;
2) That the proposed use will not adversely affect the adjoining land uses, or the
growth and development of the area in which it is proposed to be located;
3) That the size and shape of the site proposed for the use is adequate to allow the full
development of the proposed use, in a manner not detrimental to either the
particular area or health and safety;
4) That the traffic generated by the proposed use will not impose an undue burden
upon the streets and highways designed and improved to carry the traffic in the
area; and
5) That the granting of the conditional use permit under the conditions imposed, if any,
will not be detrimental to the health and safety of the citizens of the City of
Anaheim.
Property owners within the Platinum Triangle Mixed Use Overlay Zone may develop their
properties in accordance with the Overlay Zone or the property’s underlying base zone which, in
this case, is the Industrial Zone. The property owner is electing to improve and operate the
subject property under the Industrial Zone. The Zoning Code permits Alcoholic Beverage
Manufacturing by right in the Industrial Zone. The Alcoholic Beverage Manufacturing use class
consists of establishments that produce or manufacture alcoholic beverages of all types.
Businesses under this use class may sell alcohol produced or manufactured on the alcoholic
beverage manufacturer’s licensed premises for On-Sale or Off-Sale consumption. Typical uses
include breweries, distilleries and wineries. Tasting rooms may be included in conjunction with
the manufacturing. A CUP is required if the tasting room is over 750 square feet and/or if an
outdoor patio that exceeds 1,000 square feet which is why a CUP is being requested in this
instance. The proposed brewery includes a 2,379 square foot tasting room and a 1,676 square
foot patio.
A Type 23 (Small Beer Manufacturer- Brew Pub or Micro-brewery) license, which authorizes a
brewery with an accessory tasting room, would be required from the California Department of
Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC). In addition, State law requires a Determination of Public
Convenience or Necessity (PCN) when a property for which an ABC license is requested is
located in a police reporting district with a crime rate above the City average, or when there is an
over-concentration in the number of licenses within a Census Tract. In this case, a PCN request
is needed because the number of existing alcohol sales licenses in this Census Tract exceeds
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2017-05919, ADMINISTRATIVE ADJUSTMENT NO. 2017-00406 AND
DETERMINATION OF PUBLIC CONVENIENCE OR NECESSITY NO. 2017-00136
July 10, 2017
Page 5 of 8
typical limits based on population. The proposed brewery is located within Census Tract No.
863.03, which has a population of 6,212 residents. This population allows for seven on-sale
licenses. There are presently 22 licenses within the tract. State law also allows for three off-sale
licenses. There are presently five licenses in the tract. The high concentration of licenses in the
tract is due to the location of the property within the Platinum Triangle, which is home to a large
number of entertainment venues and food and beverage establishments. Although there is a high
concentration of alcohol sales licenses in the area, the crime rate within ¼ mile of this property is
below the city average. Calls for service within this area primarily consisted of petty theft, grand
theft auto, auto burglary, and commercial burglary. These types of crime are not typically
considered alcohol-related. The location is within Police Reporting District No. 2027, which has
a crime rate that is below the citywide average. There have been no calls for service to this
location in the last year.
Staff does not anticipate that the addition of the proposed use at this location would contribute to
an increase in crime if the business owner operates in a responsible manner and in compliance
with the recommended conditions of approval. These conditions include typical Police
Department conditions for similar uses, such as requiring that there shall be no admission fee,
cover charge, nor minimum purchase required, ABC LEAD (Licensee Education on Alcohol and
Drugs) training for employees, as well as limiting the use of the outdoor patio to 9:00 p.m. to
reduce the potential for noise impacts upon adjacent residential uses.
The proposed brewery is consistent with the goals and objectives of the General Plan because it
would contribute to the vitality of the Platinum Triangle as “a thriving economic center that
provides residents, visitors and employees with a variety of housing, employment, shopping and
entertainment opportunities. Although not being requested at this time, any future indoor
entertainment, including live music, would require approval of a separate Entertainment Permit.
Through the permit review process, staff would have the ability to require certain protections to
ensure that the music does not disturb any nearby residents. Any outdoor entertainment
proposed in the future would be significantly limited and only allowed up to four times a year
through the issuance of a Special Event Permit. Similar to an Entertainment Permit, a Special
Even Permit could include restrictions to ensure that such entertainment does not disturb
surrounding properties. Based on these factors, staff believes that the proposed use would be
compatible with the surrounding area and recommends approval of the CUP.
Administrative Adjustment: The applicant requests an Administrative Adjustment to permit
fewer parking spaces than required by the Zoning Code. Administrative adjustments are waivers
of certain development standards as specified within the Zoning Code. Code permits a deviation
of 20% or less from code requirements if certain conditions exist. The Planning Director has
review authority over Administrative Adjustments, but may refer any application to the Planning
Commission for review. Since the Planning Commission must approve the CUP and the
Determination of Public Convenience or Necessity, the Planning Director has referred the
Administrative Adjustment to the Commission to provide a comprehensive evaluation of the
project and to make a finding of fact that the evidence presented shows that all of the following
conditions exist:
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2017-05919, ADMINISTRATIVE ADJUSTMENT NO. 2017-00406 AND
DETERMINATION OF PUBLIC CONVENIENCE OR NECESSITY NO. 2017-00136

Page 6 of 8
1) The adjustment is consistent with the purposes and intent of the Zoning Code;
2) The same or similar result cannot be achieved by using provisions in the Zoning
Code that do not require the adjustment; and
3) The adjustment will not produce a result that is out of character or detrimental to
the neighborhood.
The Zoning Code establishes the parking demand for the project by combining all existing and
proposed uses. The Zoning Code requires 99 parking spaces for the property, including the
proposed project, as shown in the table below. There are 59 parking spaces available on-site. In
order to address the parking deficit, the applicant is proposing to provide free valet parking
services, which will be able to accommodate an additional 25 parking spaces, resulting in 84
parking spaces; a deviation of 16% of the Zoning Code requirements. Patrons of the brewery
would drop their vehicle off at the front kiosk located near the entrance and a valet driver would
park the vehicle in the parking spaces locate near the rear of building.

TOTAL 99
The alcohol beverage manufacturing use requires 21 spaces per the Zoning Code; however,
manufacturing hours of operation would typically cease at 2:00 p.m. and would only require a
maximum of 8 spaces to accommodate 8 employees at full manufacturing capacity. The
applicant is proposing to operate the tasting room from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m.; however, the
applicant has indicated that peak demand would occur between 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Therefore,
during peak demand for the tasting room, there would be no demand for parking for the other
industrial tenant of the building. Without the industrial tenant and the alcohol beverage
manufacturing, the demand for parking would be 68 spaces, which the property could
accommodate with its 84 standard and valet parking spaces combined.

Furthermore, since the project is located within the Platinum Triangle, it is within walking
distance to several planned and recently-constructed residential developments. The applicant
states that the unique urban environment and the increase in rideshare services such as Uber and
Lyft reduces the reliance of customers on vehicles to access the brewery. As a condition of
approval, the applicant will be required to financially participate in the Anaheim Transportation
Network, which operates the ART (Anaheim Resort Transit) busses. As a result, there may be
the opportunity for Brewheim patrons to access the brewery using ART. In addition, there is an
existing ART stop at the corner of State College Boulevard and Katella Avenue, which is in
close proximity to the proposed brewery.
Based on the above information, staff believes that the number of parking spaces proposed
would be adequate to accommodate the proposed brewery without impact to the surrounding
public streets or properties. Staff is recommending conditions of approval to ensure the
successful management of the on-site parking such as the requirement for free valet service,
adequate lighting, directional signs to the parking facilities, and participation in the ART transit
program.
Community Input: Staff received four emails from residents of the nearby Stadium Loft
Condominium community, which are included as attachments to this report. The residents cited
concerns regarding criminal activity, traffic, noise impacts to the units located closest to the
proposed brewery tasting room and outdoor patio, as well as concerns about whether the
proposed use is appropriate at the location. Staff has carefully considered the concerns of the
residents and conditions of approval were added to the draft resolution to address some of the
concerns and minimize any potential negative impacts to the surrounding area. Recommended
conditions of approval include:
Hours of operation shall cease at 12 midnight for the tasting room and 9:00 p.m.
for the outside patio area.
There shall be no entertainment, amplified music or dancing permitted on the
premises at any time unless the proper permits have been obtained from the City
of Anaheim (the Entertainment Permit and Special Event Permit processes are
described in more detail on page 5 above).
Adequate lighting of parking lots, driveway, circulation areas, aisles,
passageways, recesses and grounds contiguous to buildings shall be provided
with lighting of sufficient wattage to provide adequate illumination to make
clearly visible the presence of any person on or about the premises during the
hours of darkness and provide a safe, secure environment for all persons,
property, and vehicles on-site.
With respect to traffic concerns, the applicant submitted a Trip Generation Memorandum
indicating that the proposed use would not result in an excess of 100 vehicle trips. The City’s
Traffic Study Guidelines state that a traffic study is required when a project’s trip generation is
expected to exceed 100 vehicle trips in the a.m. or p.m. peak hour. In this case, the Trip
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2017-05919, ADMINISTRATIVE ADJUSTMENT NO. 2017-00406 AND
DETERMINATION OF PUBLIC CONVENIENCE OR NECESSITY NO. 2017-00136
July 10, 2017
Page 8 of 8
Generation Memorandum estimates that the project would generate 60 vehicle trips during the
p.m. peak hour. The applicant has indicated that peak operations would occur between 6:00 p.m.
and 9:00 p.m. The previous industrial use would have been expected to generate 17 p.m. peak
hour trips; therefore, the proposed use would result in an increase of 43 vehicle trips. This
estimate is based upon the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation
Handbook, 9th Edition. The proposed project would generate traffic well below the City’s
Traffic Study threshold of 100 vehicle trips and therefore, a traffic study is not required. Traffic
generated by the proposed project is consistent with the City’s General Plan and would not create
a significant traffic impact and is therefore not anticipated to impose undue burden on the local
streets and highways.
Environmental Impact Analysis: Staff recommends the Planning Commission find that the
effects of the proposed project are typical of those generated 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.
CONCLUSION: The applicant has designed the proposed establishment of the brewery and
tasting room primarily for the commercial production of beer for off-site distribution to retail
customers and restaurants. The tasting room and outdoor patio account for only a portion of the
business which will serve visitors and residents in the Platinum Triangle area. The recommended
conditions of approval would ensure that the sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages would
be compatible with surrounding land uses. Because the nature of the use is primarily beer
manufacturing with an accessory component of retail sales and beer tasting, staff believes it is
compatible with the surrounding industrial uses, and recommends approval of the request.

To whom it may concern-
I just wanted to take the time to provide feedback on this proposed project.
I live at the stadium lofts on the first floor and am in total favor of this project. I believe it will increase
community interactivity as well as provide a more community feel rather than the office buildings that currently
exist.
Its location, plans for patio, walls and parking are all perfectly in line with what i believe will limit noise and
traffic congestion on our street.
I am 100% in favor of this project.
Please feel free to email or call if you need any further info from me.

Hello Lindsay,
I am a tenant at the Anaheim Stadium Lofts next to where the new Brewery would be located. I have attended one of
the recent meetings with my girlfriend regarding some of the concerns that some tenants may have. It has been brought
to my attention that I should reach out to give my two cents for why I believe we need this Brewery. I see that one of
the main issues that was brought up by certain residents would be the parking. I can assure you this will not be an issue,
I'm sure you all have done your due diligence in regards to this.
Another issue was the fact that a small amount of individuals, seem to believe that the patio should close at 7 pm. I
wouldn't be truly honest if I did not point out that this is a tad hypocritical to an extent. My particular building for
instance, has a noise/pool area rule that we must evacuate all social areas of the complex by 10 pm, M‐Th and 11 pm on
Friday and Saturday. It is to my understanding that it was proposed to have the patio close at 9 pm. This seems to be
more than fair, considering our pool closure hours are to remain open an hour, to two hours longer than this of the
business at hand. To me this issue is null and void, given the circumstances. Lastly on this issue, I'd like to mention that
most of us don't even get home until 7 pm maybe later.
So my opinion, if not made clear in the previous paragraphs, is I am definitely for this business going forward. The last
argument was made by a certain individual at the meeting that "what if 1000 people showed up one night"...it is clear to
me that some people either A) do not want anything out there regardless of what the business is because of fear of
change. (Which is to be expected) or B) they have no clue what a Brewery is and continuously refers to this business as a
"bar" which is almost a slap in the face to people who enjoy micro brews.
Again, this is solely my opinion and my opinion alone. But I want to also let you guys know that you are not alone. There
are many of us that want this. We only hope that those who have issues with this, will learn to come around. Not to veer
off track a bit, but we do have a strip club in walking distance. This Brewery however will our community good, and
hopefully help with the ongoing theft and issues we have been having.
Thank you for taking the time to read this over.

Hello,
Just wanted to put in my two cents about the Brewery being proposed near where I live (stadium lofts). I think it's
overall a fabulous idea. I also think they should be able to stay open well past 7:30 pm (to at least 9:30 or 10:00). If our
building is allowing the pool and rec center to be open until late, then I think any noise coming from the brewery will
pale in comparison to the noise we hear from pool parties.
Places like these are the reason many of us choose to live in location like the Stadium Lofts. I think the more restaurants,
shops, entertainment we have that are walkable, the more our property values and quality of life will increase. Thank
you.

Dear Lindsay,
As a follow-up to the July 20th Community Meeting, I am writing in my support For
Brewheim in the proposed location at 1921-1931 East Wright Circle. I would like to
reiterate my stance of a few of the key issues; parking, outside patio, and security.
During our conversations, some residents have stated that parking may be an issue as
Stadium Lofts' garage does not contain much visitor parking. I have been counting
visitor parking spaces available in the garage since the July 20th meeting, and have
found that at least 20 visitor spaces are available during the 5-9pm on
average. Yesterday was an Angel's game and our HOA meeting, easily the busiest time
as not all home owners live in the lofts, and even then, during the 5-9pm hours, there
were at least 10-15 spaces available and street parking. I have attached
photos. (Reference photo "Parking1" and "Parking2")
The outside patio has brought up concerns regarding noise and light. Some have asked
that the outside patio be closed earlier than 9PM. Please consider that our pool area and
interior courtyards have a closing time of 10PM Monday - Thursday and 11PM on Friday
and Saturday. Why should a business that is across the street from the Lofts be held at
a higher standard than that of our interior areas? That also doesn't consider the
ambient noises of Disney Fireworks, trains, Angel Games and other activities at the
stadium, etc. When thinking of the noise levels produced by a small social gathering, it
is hard to fathom that they would be louder than the other activities already going
on. Especially at 9pm when the fireworks go off and the trains run at the same time.
Also, Brewheim stated that they will also be putting up some type of barrier between the
outdoor patio and stadium lofts to hinder the noise, to which I believe will be sufficient
enough to alleviate the noise concern.
In addition to noise, lighting had be a concern of some residents. Brewheim insisted
that they will have no direct lighting pointing towards stadium lofts. With no direct light
and large trees hindering sight lines to the patio area, lighting should not be an
issue. Please note, the street lights outside of the stadium lofts make a large
impact. (Reference Photo "Lighting") It is also worth noting, that because that area
currently becomes a dark, eerie corner at night, it attracts transients and others wanting
to hide what they are doing. I have witnessed many loitering around that part at night
and early mornings.

With the security cameras and lighting, I would hope that will help increase the security
of our neighborhood as well as give an inviting space for our neighborhood to join
together, strengthening the sense of community.
Our community is dire need of that casual home away from home where neighbors of
the surrounding apartment communities can get together and get to know one
another. Neighbors becoming familiar strangers is what heightens security and a sense
of community. Given the fast growth of this area, we need to set the sense of
community before it gets to populated to do so.
Thank you for your time and for considering my feedback.

PLANNING COMMISSION REPORT
City of Anaheim
PLANNING AND BUILDING DEPARTMENT
DATE: AUGUST 7, 2017
SUBJECT: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2016-05887
LOCATION: 2620 West Orange Avenue (Iglesia De Dios Israelita Church)
APPLICANT/PROPERTY OWNER: The owner and applicant is Iglesia De Dios
Israelita, Inc., represented by Martin Gomez.
REQUEST: The applicant requests approval of a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to
permit and retain an existing church within an office building.
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. 2016-05887.
BACKGROUND: The 0.33-acre property is developed with a two story office
building. The property is located within the "C-G" General Commercial zone and
the General Plan designates the property for Low-Medium Density Residential land
uses. Surrounding land uses include Maxwell Elementary School to the north across
Orange Avenue, automotive repair to the east, a retail and office building to the south,
and single-family residential land uses to the west.
The church was established at this location in July 2016, without prior approval of a
CUP, nor the building permits needed to legally allow several interior improvements
to the building. Shortly thereafter, staff received a complaint from a neighbor and
informed the owner of the property and the church operator that a CUP was required
to permit a church and that building permits were required for the interior
modifications to the office building. In October 2016, the applicant submitted an
application for a CUP. Since that time, the City has received multiple noise
complaints about the church from the adjacent neighborhood and the Code
Enforcement case remains active and open, pending a determination on this
application.
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2016-05887
August 7, 2017
Page 2 of 6
On July 10, 2017, the Planning Commission held a public hearing on this CUP request and
received testimony from several residents in the adjacent neighborhood. The residents raised
concerns relating to privacy, noise, and construction without permits. The Planning
Commission continued the hearing to the August 7 meeting to allow the applicant to meet
with the neighboring residents and attempt to resolve their concerns.
Staff facilitated a meeting between church representatives and residents on July 20, 2017.
Several residents attended the meeting and discussed their privacy and noise concerns in
detail. The church representatives stated that they understood the concerns and would manage
their activities to minimize the potential noise and privacy impacts, as well as continue to
work with the City to obtain the necessary building permits. However, there was not a clear
agreement reached to address these issues to the satisfaction of both parties.
Building Division staff visited the site on July 27, 2017, and recommended that several items
relating to proper emergency escape (means of egress) for an assembly use be addressed prior
to commencement of any further services. Other items that need to be addressed include
electrical repair, permitting the existing commercial kitchen, and permitting all other
alterations made to the building.
PROPOSAL: The applicant proposes to permit and retain a 3,664 square foot church with a
1,248 square foot sanctuary located on the second floor of a two-story office building. The
applicant also proposes to pave and re-stripe the existing parking lot. The ground floor would
continue to be occupied by the chiropractic business, but the massage therapy business would
be moving out. As described below, the church intends to relocate the existing sanctuary to
the first floor once the suite is vacated. The church offers services on Saturdays at 9:00 a.m.,
3:00 p.m., and 7:00 p.m. A bible study is offered at 7:00 p.m. on Wednesdays and Fridays.
There is a shared parking agreement with the property to the south, located at 625 South
Magnolia Avenue, and the applicant proposes to provide church parking on both properties.
The applicant states that the 7:00 p.m. Saturday service is the most well-attended, with
approximately 75 persons present.

Site Plan
Church representatives have indicated that one of the ground floor tenants (massage therapy
business) will be moving out in the next 30-60 days, and it is their intent to move the sanctuary to
the ground floor to help alleviate some of the potential impacts on neighboring properties. The
applicant believes that this could be accomplished within six months. Accordingly, the existing
massage therapy tenant would vacate their ground floor suite, and the chiropractic business would
remain. The church would construct a sanctuary on the first floor comparable in size to that existing
on the second floor. The second floor sanctuary would be leased out to a new tenant, and church
offices and Sunday school rooms would occupy the remaining portion of the second floor. The
applicant has indicated that all doors would remain closed and the balcony would only be used for
access to the restrooms (which have an exterior door only). Parking would not likely increase
because the new sanctuary would be similar in size, and no additional services or programs would
be conducted. Should a parking impact occur, staff has provided recommended conditions as
described below to address any potential parking issues.

FINDINGS AND ANALYSIS:
Conditional Use Permit: Before the Planning Commission may approve a conditional use
permit, it must make a finding of fact that the evidence presented shows that all of the following
conditions exist:
1) That the proposed use is properly one for which a conditional use permit is
authorized by this code;
2) That the proposed use will not adversely affect the adjoining land uses, or the
growth and development of the area in which it is proposed to be located;
3) That the size and shape of the site proposed for the use is adequate to allow the
full development of the proposed use, in a manner not detrimental to either the
particular area or health and safety;
4) That the traffic generated by the proposed use will not impose an undue burden
upon the streets and highways designed and improved to carry the traffic in the
area; and
5) That the granting of the conditional use permit under the conditions imposed, if
any, will not be detrimental to the health and safety of the citizens of the City of
Anaheim.
Community and Religious Assembly uses are permitted in the General Commercial Zone
subject to approval of a conditional use permit to ensure compatibility with the surrounding
area.
Parking: The 2620 West Orange Avenue and 625 South Magnolia Avenue properties have a
combined total of 52 parking spaces provided on site. The Zoning Code does not specify a
parking standard for Community and Religious Assembly uses, but allows parking to be
determined by a Parking Letter or Parking Study that identifies the actual parking demand of
the church. The applicant submitted an analysis of the existing church’s parking demand in
conjunction with the adjacent uses in the Letter of Request included with the CUP application.
The applicant also conducted on-site parking counts during church services. As shown in the
table below, the applicant surveyed the properties and observed 75 percent of the parking
spaces occupied. Staff conducted a separate site visit and verified the information provided.

owners regarding overflow parking into the adjacent neighborhoods or commercial centers.
Staff received a letter from the adjacent property owner to the south, confirming the shared
parking agreement between 625 South Magnolia Avenue and the church property. Based on
the parking counts provided by the applicant and those conducted by staff, the non-conflicting
service hours with other uses sharing parking, and the lack of parking-related complaints, staff
believes that the church would have sufficient parking spaces available and would not impose
an undue burden on the adjacent commercial and residential uses. To ensure that there will be
no future parking impacts on the surrounding area, staff recommends the following conditions
of approval which are included in the attached draft resolution: (i) any increase in parking
demand beyond the current parking supply shall be addressed to the satisfaction of the Planning
Director, and (ii) a school use or child daycare, other than Wednesday or Saturday Bible
studies, shall not be permitted without prior approval of a conditional use permit.
Noise and Privacy: The church sanctuary is located on the second floor of an office building
located approximately 100 feet from the nearest single family residence to the west; the “Youth
Room” is located approximately 80 feet from the nearest residence. The City has received
noise complaints dating back to the church’s opening in July 2016, relating to construction
activity and worship services. Neighbors have also cited concerns with view intrusion, car
horns, door slamming, amplified music, and children outdoors. Following the community
meeting held on July 20, 2017, City staff toured the church and neighboring properties to
further observe the proximity of the homes, potential view intrusion, and noise buffering
opportunities. Staff observed that the views from the second story balcony to the adjacent
residential properties were limited and only impacted the property at 602 Kenmore Street.
There is a row of large Ficus trees planted along the property line separating the adjacent homes
from the church property; however, these trees have been trimmed in a manner that reduces
their effectiveness as a privacy screen. Staff believes that allowing the Ficus tree canopies to
broaden along this property line would provide sufficient screening of the neighbor’s backyard,
thus alleviating the existing privacy issue. Staff also believes that planned relocation of the
sanctuary downstairs would further reduce potential noise and privacy impacts.
Staff believes that recommended conditions of approval would mitigate noise impacts and
ensure that the use operates in a manner compatible with surrounding office, commercial, and
residential uses. These conditions include:
Milestones to ensure that permits are obtained for all unpermitted work, change
of occupancy, and that the sanctuary is relocated downstairs within eight months;
Requiring that the existing Ficus trees along the west property line be allowed
to grow to provide adequate screening between the properties;
Requiring all church doors to remain closed at all times;
Prohibit the use of sound amplification equipment other than small system for
the pastor to deliver sermons;
Allow the Planning and Building Director to modify the church operations
should an issue arise;
Prohibiting public gathering on the second floor balcony and parking lot; and
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2016-05887
August 7, 2017
Page 6 of 6
Requiring a six month compliance review (with notice provided to the surrounding
neighborhood) to ensure that the church is operating in a responsible manner
consistent with all conditions of approval, and that adequate construction progress
has been made to relocate the sanctuary to the first floor. As noted above, staff is
recommending an eight month period to allow the applicant to complete
construction.
With these conditions included in the draft resolution, staff believes the church could operate
in a manner to minimize any potential noise and privacy impacts on the adjacent residential
properties to the west.
Environmental Impact Analysis: Staff recommends the Planning Commission find that the
effects of the proposed project are typical of those generated 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.
CONCLUSION: Staff believes that the existing church would be compatible with the
surrounding land uses. The number of on-site parking spaces are adequate to serve the church
and adjacent commercial uses based on the actual parking demand observed for the properties.
Conditions of approval have been included to ensure that the church would operate in a
compatible manner regarding any potential noise or privacy impacts and that sufficient parking
is provided. For these reasons, staff recommends approval of this request, subject to the
recommended conditions of approval.

A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF ANAHEIM APPROVING CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2016-05887
AND MAKING CERTAIN FINDINGS IN CONNECTION THEREWITH
(DEV2016-00104)
(2620 WEST ORANGE AVENUE)
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Anaheim (the "Planning
Commission") did receive a verified petition to approve Conditional Use Permit No. 2016-05887
to permit and retain an existing community and religious assembly use (the "Proposed Project")
for premises located at that certain real property at 2620 West Orange Avenue, in the City of
Anaheim, County of Orange, State of California, as generally depicted on the map attached hereto
as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by this reference (the "Property"); and
WHEREAS, the Property is approximately 0.33-acres in size and is currently
developed with a two-story office building. The Anaheim General Plan designates the Property
for Low-Medium Density Residential land uses. The Property is located in the “C-G” General
Commercial Zone and is subject to the zoning and development standards contained in Chapter
18.08 (Commercial Zones) of the Anaheim Municipal Code (the "Code"); and
WHEREAS, a duly noticed public hearing was scheduled before the Planning
Commission at the Civic Center in the City of Anaheim on July 10, 2017 at 5:00 p.m. to hear and
consider evidence and testimony for and against the Proposed Project and to investigate and make
findings and recommendations in connection therewith, and the Planning Commission continued
the item to the August 7, 2017 meeting; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of the California
Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq.; herein referred to as
“CEQA”), the State of California Guidelines for the Implementation of the California
Environmental Quality Act (commencing with Section 15000 of Title 14 of the California Code
of Regulations; herein referred to as the "CEQA Guidelines"), and the City's Local CEQA
Procedure Manual, the City is the "lead agency" for the preparation and consideration of
environmental documents for the Proposed Project; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission finds and determines that the effects of the
Proposed Project are typical of those generated within that class of projects (i.e., Class 1 – Existing
Facilities) which consist of the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or
minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or
topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of use beyond that existing at the time
of this determination, and that, therefore, pursuant to Section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines, the
Proposed Project will not cause a significant effect on the environment and is, therefore,
categorically exempt from the provisions of CEQA; and
- 2 - PC2017-***
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. 2016-05887, does find and
determine the following:
1. The proposed request to permit and retain a church in an existing office building
is an allowable use within the "C-G" General Commercial Zone under subsection .010 of Section
18.08.030 (Uses) of Chapter 18.08 (Commercial Zones) of the Code, subject to a conditional use
permit and the zoning and development standards of the "C-G" General Commercial Zone.
2. The conditional use permit, subject to compliance with 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 office and there are a sufficient amount of parking
spaces to accommodate the parking demand for the church.
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 because the facility is located within an office building with a sufficient number of on-site
parking spaces being provided, adequate vehicle circulation is provided on site, and compliance
with the conditions of approval contained herein will ensure that the church does not have an
adverse impact on the adjacent residential uses.
4. The traffic generated by the use 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 site will not exceed the anticipated volumes of traffic on the
surrounding streets to accommodate the use.
5. The granting of Conditional Use Permit No. 2016-05887 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, 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.
- 3 - PC2017-***
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission does hereby
approve Conditional Use Permit No. 2016-05887, and further contingent upon and subject to the
conditions of approval set forth in Exhibit B attached hereto and incorporated herein by this
reference, which are hereby found to be a necessary prerequisite to the proposed use of the Property
under Conditional Use Permit No. 2016-05887 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 (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 August 7, 2017. 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 the event of an appeal.

Subject:Noise Nuisance - Medical building 2620 Orange Ave.
Dear Nick,
I have looked at the Anaheim building codes and I have several concerns about the Medical Building at 2620
Orange Ave.
There is the constant noise of large groups of people arriving and leaving, sermons, speaking in tongues and
singing on some week days and nights, Friday night and all morning and night Saturday. There is amplified
music played (rehearsal ?) on other days and the pastor leads clean up crews and noisy gardeners and does
heavy construction on other days of the week.
Of course churches are good for people and the community. I love our neighborhood and our neighbors, nearby
residences, businesses and churches. I am catholic and many of our neighbors are religious. I know we have
two lovely churches on the corner across the street that do a lot of good work for the community. St Paul’s
Presbyterian Church and Magnolia Baptist Church and we have several other churches in close proximity.
The problem is that this building was built and planned as a two story medical building with offices and parking
spaces for that function. It was not designed as a church. The people in our neighborhood expect this business
building to have daytime operating hours and a quiet daily business atmosphere. This is what we expected when
we moved into our homes and it is unfair to force us to live with this loss of peace and quiet. Instead we have a
constant noise nuisance and people looking into our yards and homes taking away our privacy.
The new owners have altered the second floor with out permits and are doing non licensed work. We have been
complaining to the “church”, the city of Anaheim and the police about this for more than a year. They have
remodeled the medical offices into an assembly hall. Have they already remodeled a kitchen? The building is
very close to residences. It is less than 100 feet to the closest dwelling and was not built to be a church. , There
is relatively no sound barrier between the second floor of this building and the surrounding neighborhood other
than than a few trees. Isn’t this in violation of Anaheim building code which requires religious assembly to take
place on the ground floor of buildings and be 200 feet away from residences? Major and ongoing construction
is done at late and early hours of the night and day by the pastor of the church and other members. Interior
walls appear to have been torn down and built up using electric saws, hammers and electric sanders. Doors,
windows and restrooms have been installed noisily without permits. Have the American with disabilities Act
accommodations been taken into consideration with these remodels? Have fire safety provisions in accordance
for a large assembly of people been installed? There is a single narrow staircase. Are there fire
sprinklers? The children are allowed to play in the parking lot as if it were a playground are they being properly
supervised?.
This building and place is not appropriate for a church. Remodeling the inside into an assembly hall by moving
walls does not make it so.

Code Violations-
I have looked at the Anaheim building code documents and it appears the “church” is doing or have done things
that are in violation of building code, environmental impact rules and Anaheim planning codes.
1. Construction code violations.
2. Regulations of amplified sound violations.
3. Environmental impacts. EIR
4. Building code for church operating on ground floor.
5. Parking and tree planting codes.
1. Construction without a permit. According to the meeting with the planning committee no permits
have been requested or granted but construction and our complaints about construction noise have been
going on for more than a year.
From Anaheim building permit document- https://www.anaheim.net/DocumentCenter/View/730
Before a structure in the City of Anaheim can be built, constructed, enlarged, altered,repaired, moved,
improved, removed, converted or demolished, a permit for that work
is required. This includes single-family homes, multi-unit residential buildings and commercial buildings. It
also includes, but not limited to, signs, fences, patio covers,pools, hot tubs and ponds. Please refer to the 2013
California Building Code, Section105 for additional information.
Some examples of construction activity that require a permit include:
• Construction of new Buildings
• Construction of Tenant Improvements
******• Additions and remodels = added restroom or remodeled door to restroom
• Installation of signs
• Upgrade or replace electric service panels
• Add, replace or move outlets, lights, switches or other electrical equipment
• Add, replace or move registers, ducts or mechanical equipment- I am not sure if this was done.
• Add, replace or move plumbing lines or plumbing fixtures
•
***• Demolition- I have heard a lot of this
• Patio Covers, Enclosures and Decks
• Pools and Spas
• Retaining walls supporting a surcharge
• Block walls over 7’high
•
***• Accessory structures - dry wall installation
****• Re-roofs - working on roof
• Re-pipes
• Water heater and water softener change-outs
*****• Window and door change-outs - changed out windows and doors
******• Drywall replacement- stack of drywall
*******• Repairs of damaged areas
*******• Stucco and siding- redone with windows
3
This list gives examples of some of the type of work that require permits. There are other work types that may
require permits that are not on this list. If you are unsure if your project requires a permit, please call the
Building Division at (714) 765-5153 + 0 to assist
you in making a determination.
2. Noise of all kinds at all hours of the day and night. Numerous noise complaints have been sent from
our neighbors to the church, the police and the planning office for more than a year.

"...two or more individual effects which when considered together, are considerable or
which compound or increase other environmental impacts."
7. Significant Unavoidable Adverse Impacts
8. Alternatives
9. Significant Irreversible Environmental Changes
10. Growth Inducing Impacts - The purpose of a General Plan is to guide growth and development in a
community. Accordingly, the
General Plan is premised on a certain amount of growth taking place. Orange County, as well as the
entire Southern California region, has experienced dramatic growth the past two decades and this trend
is expected to continue into the next century. The focus of the General Plan, then, is to provide a
framework in which the growth can be managed and to tailor it to suit the needs of the community and
surrounding area.

Subject: Hier_Please Consider
Dear Sirs:
In your original recommendation to the Planning Commission to grant a conditional permit for 2620 West
Orange you wrote that you believe that
“…conditions of approval would mitigate noise impacts and ensure that the use operates in a manner
compatible with surrounding office, commercial, and residential uses”
and that
“The granting of Conditional Use Permit No. 2016-05887 under the conditions imposed will not be detrimental
to the health and safety of the citizens of the City of Anaheim…”
The residents being negatively impacted by the constant disruptions at this location very strongly believe these
assumptions are patently false.
We urge you to re-consider the following points, on which all of the surrounding residents from several
surrounding streets are in agreement:
NEW CORRESPONDENCE
ITEM NO. 3

12’ hedges will not sufficiently block views from all windows affected
12’ hedges will not sufficiently block noise from balcony.
Hedges and/or balcony enclosures will not stop:
a. people’s voices from the parking lot immediately adjacent to several homes
even casual voices carry over the wall that separates the property from homes nearby,
and churchgoers are often excited and shouting, and the children boisterous. This noise
travels directly into our homes. Recordings confirm this.
b. the slamming of doors from cars parked 10 feet from multiple back yards — there are 22
spaces that are far too close to our yards.
c. the chirping of car alarms being set and unlocked before and after services (especially the 9
am services where arrivals begin far earlier with people bringing food and set up early, and after
the 7 pm services with people often lingering until wall past 10 pm and at times 11 pm. Police
reports and recordings confirm this.
d. the blaring of car alarms that go off during services
Due to these realities, weekend activities at that location have unfairly caused—and we fear will continue to
unfairly cause—suffering for nearby residents, greatly diminishing our quality of life.
We feel, to a person, that you should not just recommend against, but very strongly recommend against any
church activites at this site.
As with so many other points of contention in this case, these seeking the permit have denied these points, but
we have documentation extant taken by multiple parties. Indeed, the same complains are coming from dozens
of people who have offered written or verbal testimony that this is true.
No fewer than eight households, including some not on Kenmore, have expressed objections to the
use of that building as a church because of the ongoing disruption (some of these objections you have
not seen, on neighborhood email threads).
We are teachers and community volunteers. We love children and have taught them. We love
community gatherings, and have helped to organize them, and have for decades.
o As such, we know that controlling students after school and adults after meetings is impossible
to do sufficiently in regards to the situation we have here with the abutting of the parking lot to
homes.
Those objecting to allowing the permits include, among others:
3
â an environmental scientist working for the government
â a homemaker
â a businesswoman
â a city building inspector
â a high school science teacher
â a professor and former newspaper and magazine editor
â a career nurse
â an elementary school teacher
â a business executive and college instructor
â a writer and actor
â a former investigative journalist and reporter (for OC Register, LA Times, LA Weekly, etc.) and college
lecturer
â a retired corporate executive
To a person, they all adamantly object to that space being used as a church, have expressed that their health and
the peace of the neighborhood continues to be disturbed, despite the recent efforts of the church to be quieter. A
summary of their claims on record:
â that they “feel like prisoners in their own home”
â that they “have lost their days of rest” each and every weekend
â that the church has repeatedly lied about construction (and multiple parties have audio and visual
evidence to prove this)
â that the church has lied about when they make noise ( and multiple parties have audio and visual
evidence to prove this)
â that these actions have been allowed to continue for more than a year now—and that fact has unfairly
caused them to suffer
We are unanimous in our position that:
â such disruptions should be stopped immediately, and certainly not be allowed to continue, much less
for another 9 months or more while permits are being approved, much less having those permits be
approved and thereby allowing the harm to Anaheim residents to continue indefinitely.
â there would be far more harm caused by allowing the permits than by denying them. The greater good
is to not allow a permit or even a conditional use permit, or any exemptions to the public protections in
place.
â even if permits are granted and construction is allowed to block noise and sightlines, there is no way to
control the excessive noise from church goers arriving and leaving during Saturday services, which are
the most disruptive. You MUST NOT allow Saturday services to continue: there are three services
each Saturday, with people arriving all day long from early morning to late evening, with 70+ attendees
4
leaving late at night. This is a great burden on the residents nearby, and has caused suffering for more
than a year now. We can not tolerate additional Saturday disruptions. It is grossly unfair to the residents.
â this is simply not a good place for a church to be located.
Thank you for considering these points in you deliberations.
Sincerely,
Grant Hier

PLANNING COMMISSION REPORT
City of Anaheim
PLANNING AND BUILDING DEPARTMENT
DATE: AUGUST 7, 2017
SUBJECT: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2017-05925
LOCATION: 1105 East Katella Avenue (Parallel Apartment Community)
APPLICANT/PROPERTY OWNER: The applicant is The Wolff Company and
the property owner is Platinum Vista Apartments, L.P, represented by Mason
Williams. The agent is Outdoor Dimensions, represented by Michele Kazerooni.
REQUEST: The applicant is requesting approval of a conditional use permit to
allow a coordinated sign program for the Parallel apartment community.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve
the attached resolution, determining that this request is categorically exempt under
the California Environmental Quality Act (Class 11, Accessory Structures) and
approving Conditional Use Permit No. 2017-05925.
BACKGROUND: The proposed coordinated sign program is for the 389-unit
Parallel apartment community, located on a 4.12-acre property in the Platinum
Triangle. The General Plan designates the property for Mixed Use land uses and the
property is within the “I” Industrial Zone and the “PTMU” Platinum Triangle Mixed
Use Overlay Zone. The City Council approved the apartment community in 2014
through a development agreement in accordance with the PTMU Overlay Zone. The
development is currently under construction. Surrounding land uses include
industrial businesses to the north and apartments to the west, east, and south across
Katella Avenue.
PROPOSAL: The applicant is requesting approval of a conditional use permit to
allow a coordinated sign program for the Parallel apartment community. Two wall
signs, one projecting sign, four address signs, and one leasing center sign, all of
which are building mounted, are proposed as part of the coordinated sign program.
The following site plan and elevations identify the proposed sign locations. The signs
reflect and complement the architecture of the buildings that they identify. The
complete sign program is included as Exhibit C to the Draft Resolution.

FINDINGS AND ANALYSIS: The PTMU Overlay Zone requires applicants to submit a
coordinated sign program to the Planning Department prior to the issuance of the first sign
permit. Residential uses in the PTMU Overlay Zone are subject to the same sign code
requirements as all other multiple-family residential zones. These requirements permit one sign
per frontage. The Code permits two signs per frontage if the applicant proposes the signs as
entry monument signs on opposite sides of main driveway/pedestrian entrance. The wall signs
cannot exceed a maximum sign area of 20 square feet. Monument signs cannot exceed a
maximum height of four feet. If the coordinated sign program meets these Code requirements,
Staff can approve it administratively.

However, in order to provide design flexibility within the Platinum Triangle, if a project cannot
meet these requirements, the applicant may submit the coordinated sign program, subject to the
approval of a conditional use permit. In the case of the Parallel apartment community, staff
believes that providing design flexibility for the coordinated sign program would be
appropriate due to the configuration of the buildings and project. The standard multi-family
residential sign code requirements are not well suited to identify a large-scale development
project with multiple buildings, located on separate parcels; and, therefore, necessitating a
more comprehensive sign program to distinguish the community.
Before the Planning Commission may approve the conditional use permit, it must make a
finding of fact that the evidence presented shows that all of the following conditions exist:
1) That the proposed use is properly one for which the Code authorizes a conditional
use permit;
2) That the proposed use will not adversely affect the adjoining land uses, or the
growth and development of the area in which it is proposed to be located;
3) That the size and shape of the site proposed for the use is adequate to allow the
full development of the proposed use, in a manner not detrimental to either the
particular area or health and safety;
4) That the traffic generated by the proposed use will not impose an undue burden
upon the streets and highways designed and improved to carry the traffic in the
area; and
5) That the granting of the conditional use permit under the conditions imposed, if
any, will not be detrimental to the health and safety of the citizens of the City of
Anaheim.
In addition, the Planning Commission must also make the following findings specific to
approval of a coordinated sign program:
1) Signs shall complement the architecture of the buildings on the same property and
provide a unifying element along the streetscape; and
2) The size, scale and style of signs shall be internally consistent and consistent with
the scale of the buildings located on the same property and the surrounding land
uses.

The proposed coordinated sign program for Parallel is consistent with and complementary to
the apartment community’s size, massing and overall aesthetics. The applicant has submitted
signs designed with high quality materials, a contemporary style and complementary exterior
colors and finishes. The applicant has submitted sign sizes consistent with the scale of the
buildings. The signs would provide a unifying and identifying element along the streetscape.
The proposed signs are on private property and any illumination of the signs would not spill
over the property lines. As a result, the signs would not adversely affect any adjoining land
uses or future growth and development in the area. Additionally, the signs would serve as the
necessary means of identification for visitors, deliveries, and emergency vehicles to the 389-
unit apartment complex. Overall, the implementation of a coordinated sign program would
provide project identification, improved visibility and cohesive design elements. Therefore,
staff recommends approval of this request.
Environmental Impact Analysis: Staff recommends the Planning Commission find that the
effects of the proposed project are typical of those generated within that class of projects (i.e.,
Class 11 – Accessory Structures) which consist of construction, or placement of minor
structures accessory to (appurtenant to) existing commercial, industrial, or institutional
facilities, 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.
CONCLUSION: The applicant has proposed signs that are tasteful, complement the
apartment community’s design and architecture, and consistent with the scale of the
surrounding buildings. Therefore, staff recommends approval of this request.

A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION
OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM APPROVING CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
NO. 2017-05925 AND MAKING CERTAIN FINDINGS
IN CONNECTION THEREWITH
(DEV2017-00061)
(1105 EAST KATELLA AVENUE)
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Anaheim ("Planning Commission")
did receive a verified petition to approve Conditional Use Permit No. 2017-05925 to
conditionally permit a coordinated sign program in association with the Parallel apartment
community at 1105 East Katella Avenue in the City of Anaheim (the Property"). The Property is
generally depicted on the map attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by this
reference; and
WHEREAS, the Property, consisting of approximately 4.12-acres, is developed with a
new residential apartment community. The Land Use Element of the Anaheim General Plan
designates the Property for Mixed Use land uses. The Property is located in the “I” Industrial
Zone and the Platinum Triangle Mixed Use (PTMU) Overlay Zone and the property owner has
the option to develop the property in accordance with either the “I” Industrial Zone or the
Platinum Triangle Mixed Use (PTMU) Overlay Zone; and
WHEREAS, the Property has been developed in accordance with the development
standards and regulations of Chapter 18.20 (Platinum Triangle Mixed Use (PTMU) Overlay
Zone) of the Anaheim Municipal Code (the "Code"). Subsection .010 of Section 18.20.150
(Signs) of Chapter 18.20 (Platinum Triangle Mixed Use (PTMU) Overlay Zone) of the Code
requires that a "coordinated sign program" be submitted to the Planning Department and must
address the following:
(1) Signs shall complement the architecture of the building and provide a unifying
element along the streetscape;
(2) The size, scale, and style of signs shall be internally consistent, and consistent with
the scale of the buildings of which they are a part; and
(3) Wall signs for ground floor uses shall be placed between the doorway and the upper
façade, and shall be located at approximately the same height as all other ground floor wall signs
to create a unifying, horizontal pattern.
WHEREAS, signs for residential uses developed in accordance with the Platinum
Triangle Mixed Use (PTMU) Overlay Zone shall also be subject to the requirements of Section
18.44.070 (Signs in Residential Zones) of Chapter 18.44 (Signs) of the Code; and if said signs do
not conform to these requirements, per Section 18.44.055 (Coordinated Sign Program) of
Chapter 18.44 (Signs) of the Code, the coordinated sign program shall be subject to the approval
