A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF ANAHEIM APPROVING CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
NO. 2017-05934 AND MAKING CERTAIN FINDINGS
IN CONNECTION THEREWITH
(DEV2017-00086)
(745 NORTH HARBOR BOULEVARD)
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Anaheim (the "Planning
Commission") did receive a verified petition for Conditional Use Permit No. 2017-05934 to permit
a transitional housing facility within an existing single family home (referred to herein as the
"Proposed Project") for that real property located at 745 North Harbor Boulevard in the City of
Anaheim, County of Orange, State of California, as generally depicted on the map attached hereto
as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by this reference (the "Property"); and
WHEREAS, the Property, approximately 0.09 acre in size and is currently developed
with a single-family family home with a detached two -car garage. The Property is located within
the "R -L" Residential -Low Density land use designation of the Anaheim General Plan and in the
"RS -2" Single Family Residential Zone and is subject to the zoning and development standards
contained in Chapter 18.04 (Single -Family Residential Zones) of the Anaheim Municipal Code
(the "Code"); and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did hold a public hearing at the Civic Center in
the City of Anaheim on October 30, 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.
2017-05934, 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 Implementation of the California Environmental
Quality Act (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
4- PC2017-077
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 Conditional Use Permit No. 2017-05934, does find and determine the
following:
1. The request for a conditional use permit for a transitional housing facility is an
allowable use authorized within the "RS -2" Single Family Residential zone, subject to a
conditional use permit; and
2. The proposed establishment of a transitional housing facility complies with all of the
provisions of the "RS -2" Single Family Residential zone and, under the conditions imposed, would
not adversely affect the adjoining land uses and the growth and development of the area in which
it is located because the services provided are for the residents only and the facility will operate
seamlessly within the residential living environment; and
3. The size and shape of the site for the transitional housing facility is adequate to allow
the full development of the proposed use in a manner not detrimental to the particular area or to
the health and safety of the surrounding area because the Proposed Project complies with all zoning
and development standards, including the required number of parking spaces.
4. The traffic generated by the Proposed Project will not impose an undue burden upon
the streets and highways designed and improved to carry the traffic in the area because the traffic
generated by this use will not exceed the anticipated volumes of traffic on the surrounding streets
and adequate parking will be provided to accommodate the use.
5. The granting of the conditional use permit under the conditions imposed will not be
detrimental to the health and safety of the citizens of the City of Anaheim since the proposed use
is conditionally permitted and with the conditions imposed, the proposed transitional housing use
will be compatible with surrounding single family residential uses.
WHEREAS, this 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. This Planning Commission expressly
declares that it considered all evidence presented and reached these findings after due
consideration of all evidence presented to it.
-2- PC2017-077
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that, pursuant to the above findings, this
Planning Commission does hereby approve Conditional Use Permit No. 2017-05934, 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 that portion of the Property for which Conditional Use Permit No. 2017-05934 is
applicable in order to preserve the health, safety and general welfare of the citizens of the City of
Anaheim. Extensions for further time to complete conditions of approval may be granted in
accordance with Section 18.60.170 of the Code. Timing for compliance with conditions of
approval may be amended by the Planning Director upon a showing of good cause provided (i)
equivalent timing is established that satisfies the original intent and purpose of the condition, (ii)
the modification complies with the Code, and (iii) the applicant has demonstrated significant
progress toward establishment of the use or approved development.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that any amendment, modification or revocation of this
permit may be processed in accordance with Chapters 18.60.190 (Amendment to Permit Approval)
and 18.60.200 (City -Initiated Revocation or Modification of Permits) of the Code.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Planning Commission does hereby find and
determine that adoption of this Resolution is expressly predicated upon applicant's compliance
with each and all of the conditions hereinabove set forth. Should any such condition, or any part
thereof, be declared invalid or unenforceable by the final judgment of any court of competent
jurisdiction, then this Resolution, and any approvals herein contained, shall be deemed null and
void.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that approval of this application constitutes approval
of the proposed request only to the extent that it complies with the Code and any other applicable
City, State and Federal regulations. Approval does not include any action or findings as to
compliance or approval of the request regarding any other applicable ordinance, regulation or
requirement.
THE FOREGOING RESOLUTION was adopted at the Planning Commission meeting
of October 30, 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
