ITEM NO. 2
PLANNING COMMISSION REPORT
City of Anaheim
PLANNING AND BUILDING DEPARTMENT
DATE: FEBRUARY 5, 2018
SUBJECT: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2017-05945 AND
DETERMINATION OF PUBLIC CONVENIENCE OR
NECESSITY NO. 2017-00138
LOCATION: 1331 East Katella Avenue, #107 (The Corner Shop at Vivere)
APPLICANT/PROPERTY OWNER: The applicant is John Moller with Moller
Retail, Inc. Brett Engstrom and Cindy Block with LiquorLicense.com are the agents
representing the applicant. The property owner is Vivere Residential I, LLC.
REQUEST: The applicant is requesting approval of a conditional use permit to
operate a 1,298 square foot convenience store within an existing ground floor tenant
space in the Vivere apartment complex. The applicant is also requesting a
determination of convenience or necessity to allow the sale of beer and wine for off-
site consumption in the convenience store.
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. 2017-05945 and Public Convenience or
Necessity No. 2017-00138.
BACKGROUND: The proposed convenience store would be located within a
1,298 square foot, ground floor commercial tenant space in the existing Vivere
mixed-use development (the “Vivere”). The Vivere is located in the Industrial (I)
Zone and the Platinum Triangle Mixed Use (PTMU) Overlay Zone. The General
Plan designates this property MU (Mixed Use) land uses. Surrounding the property
are apartments to the west, east and north, and a vacant lot across Katella Avenue to
the south, which will develop in the future as part of the A-Town mixed-use
development.
The property owner developed the Vivere in accordance with the PTMU Overlay
Zone in two phases. The first phase is on 1.55 acres, and includes 92 residential units
and the subject 1,298 square foot, ground floor commercial tenant space. The first
phase opened in 2011; however, the commercial tenant space has not had an
occupant to date. The second phase is on 2.89 acres and includes 244 units. The
second phase opened in October 2017.
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2017-05945 AND DETERMINATION OF PUBLIC CONVENIENCE OR
NECESSITY NO. 2017-00138
February 5, 2018
Page 2 of 5
This item was continued from the January 22, 2018 meeting in order to readvertise the request by
adding the public convenience or necessity determination. The subject commercial tenant space
is within a four-story building, constructed over two levels of underground parking garage. The
Planning Commission approved the subject commercial tenant space as part of its approval of
Final Site Plan No. 2005-00006 (FSP2005-00006). As a condition of approval, the property
owner was required to reserve seven parking spaces on the upper garage level, as shown in
Attachment No. 6, for customers of the tenant space.
PROPOSAL: The applicant is proposing to operate a 1,298 square foot convenience store,
called The Corner Shop, within the vacant commercial tenant space, shown in the picture below.
The proposed convenience store would sell beer and wine for off-site consumption. No
modifications to the building’s exterior are proposed. The applicant has not proposed any signs
in conjunction with this request; however, any proposed signs would be required to comply with
Anaheim Municipal Code. Interior modifications would include the tenant improvements for a
typical convenience store, as shown in Attachment No. 7. The convenience store would operate
with a Type 20 (Off-Sale Beer and Wine) license from the California Department of Alcohol
Beverage Control (ABC). The convenience store would sell beer and wine, a selection of food
and snacks, beverages, coffee, and sundries. The store would operate from 6:00 a.m. to 11:00
p.m., seven days a week with up to 12 employees staggered across all shifts.
Exterior of Tenant Space
FINDINGS AND ANALYSIS: 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;
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2017-05945 AND DETERMINATION OF PUBLIC CONVENIENCE OR
NECESSITY NO. 2017-00138
February 5, 2018
Page 3 of 5
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.
Convenience stores and the sale of beer and wine for off-site consumption require approval of a
conditional use permit in the PTMU Overlay Zone in order to determine compatibility with
surrounding land uses. Staff believes that the convenience store and the sale of beer and wine for
off-site consumption would not adversely affect the surrounding land uses or the growth and
development of the area if the applicant operates the business in a responsible manner and in
compliance with the recommended conditions of approval. These conditions include the
prohibition of any exterior advertising of alcoholic beverages and a requirement that all
employees complete ABC LEAD (Licensee Education on Alcohol and Drugs) training.
The primary function of The Corner Shop is to serve the on-site residents and those in adjacent
residential developments, by offering a selection of consumer goods needed on a daily basis. The
previously approved Final Site Plan for the Vivere mixed-use development, including the subject
tenant space, required seven parking spaces to be dedicated for use by customers of the tenant
space, as shown in Attachment No. 5. The dedicated parking spaces are located on the upper
garage level plan shown in Attachment No. 6. There would be no increase in the parking
requirement since the applicant is not proposing any expansion in floor area. As a condition of
approval, the applicant will be required to install signs for these spaces that state that the spaces
are for “The Corner Shop.” The condition would require installation of the signs within thirty
days of the approval of the proposed project. Based on these factors, staff believes that the
proposed use would be compatible with the surrounding area and recommends approval of the
conditional use permit.
Determination of Public Convenience or Necessity: State law limits the issuance of alcoholic
beverage licenses when a license is requested for a property 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
ABC licenses within a census tract. In this case, the subject property is in an area that has an
over-concentration of ABC licenses. However, the law also states that ABC can waive this
restriction if the local jurisdiction makes a determination that the proposed license would serve a
"public convenience or necessity." Since there is an over-concentration of off-sale licenses in the
census tract, a “determination of public convenience or necessity" is required for this license
request.
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2017-05945 AND DETERMINATION OF PUBLIC CONVENIENCE OR
NECESSITY NO. 2017-00138
February 5, 2018
Page 4 of 5
The property is within Police Reporting District No. 2027, which has a crime rate that is below
the citywide average. In addition, there were no calls for service at this location in the last year.
Therefore, state law would not limit the issuance of ABC licenses for this property based of the
crime rate. However, the Police Department also evaluates requests for ABC licenses based on
the crime rate within a one-quarter mile radius of the subject site. Over the last year, the crime
rate within a one-quarter mile radius of this property was 45 percent above the citywide average
based upon calls for service. The calls consisted of 57 petty thefts, 14 thefts from vehicles, 12
vandalisms, and 8 simple assaults.
This property is located within Census Tract No. 863.03, which has a population of 6,212.
Based on population size, the State would consider the subject census tract over-concentrated
with licenses for the sale of beer and wine for off-site consumption if there are more than three
off-sale licenses. There are presently five licenses in the tract. The Corner Shop at Vivere would
be obtaining a new off-sale license from ABC, which would increase this number to six.
However, the Platinum Triangle is an area of the City that allows for higher density mixed-use
development. The residents expect convenient shopping locations, including for the sale of beer
and wine for off-site consumption. The provision of the convenience store and the sale of beer
and wine for off-site consumption in close proximity to residential development will encourage a
more walkable urban environment for the residents.
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2017-05945 AND DETERMINATION OF PUBLIC CONVENIENCE OR
NECESSITY NO. 2017-00138
February 5, 2018
Page 5 of 5
CONCLUSION: The proposed convenience store would provide a convenient shopping
location for area residents and reduce automobile trips for daily shopping needs. The store would
meet the goals of the PTMU by encouraging a walkable urban environment for residents. Staff
believes that with the proposed conditions of approval, convenience store and the sale of beer
and wine for off-site consumption would be compatible with the neighborhood. Staff
recommends approval of this request.

A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION
OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM APPROVING
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2017-05945 AND
MAKING CERTAIN FINDINGS IN CONNECTION THEREWITH
(DEV2017-00116)
(1331 EAST KATELLA AVENUE, UNIT #107)
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Anaheim ("Planning Commission")
did receive a verified petition to approve Conditional Use Permit No. 2017-05945 to permit a new
“Type 20” Off-Sale Beer and Wine Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) license to permit the sale
of beer and wine for off-site consumption within a convenience market (The Corner Shop), for
certain real property located at 1331 East Katella Avenue #107 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, Conditional Use Permit No. 2017-05945 is proposed in conjunction with
Public Convenience or Necessity No. 2017-00138, now pending, which, together with the
Project, shall be referred to herein collectively as the "Proposed Project"; and
WHEREAS, the Property, consisting of approximately 1.55 acres, is developed with a
92-unit mixed use development with a 1,298 square foot, ground floor tenant space for the
convenience store. The Anaheim General Plan designates the Property for “MU” Mixed Use land
uses. The Property is located within the underlying “I” Industrial Zone, implementing the
"PTMU" Platinum Triangle Mixed Use Overlay Zone. As such, the Property is subject to the
zoning and development standards described in Chapter 18.20 (Platinum Triangle Mixed Use
Overlay) 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 January 22, 2018 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 the Proposed Project and
to investigate and make findings and recommendations in connection therewith, and the hearing
was continued to the February 5, 2018 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 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
- 2 - PC2018-***
WHEREAS, this 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
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 pertaining to the request for Conditional Use Permit No. 2017-05945, does find and
determine the following facts:
1. The proposed request for a new “Type 20” Off-Sale Beer and Wine ABC license to
permit the sale of beer and wine for off-site consumption within a convenience store is an
allowable use within the "PTMU" Platinum Triangle Mixed Use Overlay Zone under Section
18.20.030 (Uses) of Chapter 18.20 (Platinum Triangle Mixed Use Overlay Zone) of the Code,
subject to a conditional use permit and the zoning and development standards of the "PTMU"
Platinum Triangle Mixed Use Overlay Zone.
2. The Proposed Project, under the conditions imposed, is compatible with the existing
and proposed uses in the surrounding area.
3. The size and shape of the site for the Proposed Project, under the conditions
imposed, 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 because the convenience store will
adhere to all required land use standards, including the required number of parking spaces.
4. The traffic generated by the Proposed Project, under the conditions imposed, 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 increase in conjunction with
the new ABC license request.
5. The granting of the Proposed Project, 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
would not be a health or safety risk to the citizens of the City of Anaheim.
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 - PC2018-***
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission does hereby
approve Conditional Use Permit No. 2017-05945, contingent upon and subject to (i) approval of

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

A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF ANAHEIM DETERMINING PUBLIC CONVENIENCE OR
NECESSITY NO. 2017-00138 TO PERMIT A TYPE 20 (OFF SALE BEER AND
WINE) ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE CONTROL LICENSE AND MAKING
CERTAIN FINDINGS IN CONNECTION THEREWITH
(DEV2017-00116)
(1331 EAST KATELLA AVENUE, UNIT #107)
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Anaheim (hereinafter referred to as
the “Planning Commission”) did receive a verified petition for Public Convenience or Necessity
No. 2017-00138 for a new “Type 20” Off-Sale Beer and Wine Alcoholic Beverage Control
(ABC) license to permit the sale of beer and wine for off-site consumption within a convenience
store (“The Corner Shop”) for certain real property located at 1331 East Katella Avenue #107, 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, Public Convenience or Necessity No. 2017-00138 is proposed in
conjunction with a request for Conditional Use Permit No. 2017-05945, now pending, which
together with the Project, shall be referred to herein collectively as the “Proposed Project”; and
WHEREAS, the Property, consisting of approximately 1.55 acres, is developed with a
92-unit mixed use development with a 1,298 square foot, ground floor tenant space for a
convenience store. The Anaheim General Plan designates the Property for “MU” Mixed Use land
uses. The Property is located within the underlying “I” Industrial Zone, implementing the
"PTMU" Platinum Triangle Mixed Use Overlay Zone. As such, the Property is subject to the
zoning and development standards described in Chapter 18.20 (Platinum Triangle Mixed Use
Overlay) 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 January 22, 2018 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 the Proposed Project and
to investigate and make findings and recommendations in connection therewith, and the hearing
was continued to the February 5, 2018 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 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
- 2 - PC2018-***
WHEREAS, by the adoption of a separate resolution concurrently with but prior in time
to this Resolution, this Planning Commission has heretofore found and determined, as the “lead
agency” under the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Section 21000
et seq.; herein referred to as “CEQA”), that the Proposed Project is 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
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 a Determination of Public Convenience or Necessity
No. 2017-00138, does find and determine the following facts:
1. On July 11, 1995, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 95R-134
establishing procedures and delegating certain responsibilities to the Planning Commission
relating to the determination of "Public Convenience or Necessity" on those certain applications
requiring that such determination be made by the local governing body pursuant to applicable
provisions of the Business and Professions Code, and prior to the issuance of a license by the
Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control ("ABC").
2. Section 23958 of the Business and Professions Code provides that the ABC
shall deny an application for a license if issuance of that license would tend to create a law
enforcement problem, or if issuance would result in or add to an "undue concentration" of
licenses, except when an applicant has demonstrated that "public convenience or necessity"
would be served by the issuance of a license. For purposes of Section 23958.4, "undue
concentration" means the case in which the Property is located in an area where any of the
following conditions exist:
(a) The Property is located in a crime reporting district that has a 20
percent greater number of reported crimes than the average number of
“reported crimes” (as defined in Section 23958.4), as determined from
all crime reporting districts within the City of Anaheim.
(b) As to on-sale retail license applications, the ratio of on-sale retail
licenses to population in the census tract or census division in which the
Property is located exceeds the ratio of on-sale retail licenses to
population in the county in which the applicant premises are located.
(c) As to off-sale retail license applications, the ratio of off-sale retail
licenses to population in the census tract or census division in which the
Property is located exceeds the ratio of off-sale retail licenses to
population in the county.
- 3 - PC2018-***
3. Notwithstanding the existence of the above-referenced conditions, ABC may
issue a license if the Planning Commission determines that the "public convenience or necessity"
would be served by the issuance.
4. Resolution No. 95R-134 authorizes the City of Anaheim Police Department to
make recommendations related to "public convenience or necessity" determinations; and, when
the sale of alcoholic beverages for off-premises consumption is permitted by the Code, said
recommendations shall take the form of conditions of approval to be imposed on the
determination in order to ensure that the sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages does not
adversely affect any adjoining land use or the growth and development of the surrounding area.
5. The Property is located within Census Tract No. 863.03 with a population of
6,212 that allows for three off-sale ABC licenses. There are presently five off-sale ABC licenses
in the tract. The Property is located in Police Reporting District No. 2027, which has a crime
rate that is below the City-wide average. The Police Department evaluates these requests based
on the crime rate within a one-quarter mile radius of the Property for the subject site. The crime
rate within ¼ mile of this Property is 45 percent above the City-wide average based upon calls
for service. Since there is an overconcentration of off-sale licenses in the census tract and the
crime rate is above the city-wide average, a determination of "public convenience or necessity" is
required for this ABC license request.
6. The request to permit beer and wine sales for off-premises consumption in
conjunction with a convenience store 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 a mixed-use residential development with a ground floor tenant space that was
intended as a convenience store to serve the area residents, and the proposed store is compatible
with the existing uses in the surrounding area; and
7. The determination of "Public Convenience or Necessity" can be made based on
the finding that the license requested is consistent with the Planning Commission guideline for
such determinations and further that the granting of the determination of Public Convenience or
Necessity, under the conditions imposed, will not be detrimental to the health and safety of the
citizens of the City of Anaheim.
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.
- 4 - PC2018-***
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission does hereby
approve Public Convenience or Necessity No. 2017-00138, contingent upon and subject to (i)
approval of Conditional Use Permit No. 2017-05945, now pending, and (ii) 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 in order to
preserve the health, safety and general welfare of the citizens of the City of Anaheim.
Extensions for further time to complete conditions of approval may be granted in accordance
with Section 18.60.170 of the Code. Timing for compliance with conditions of approval may be
amended by the Planning Director upon a showing of good cause provided (i) equivalent timing
is established that satisfies the original intent and purpose of the condition(s), (ii) the
modification complies with the Code, and (iii) the applicant has demonstrated significant
progress toward establishment of the use or approved development.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that any amendment, modification or revocation of this
permit may be processed in accordance with Chapters 18.60.190 (Amendment to Permit
Approval) and 18.60.200 (City-Initiated Revocation or Modification of Permits) of the 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
February 5, 2018. 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.

PLANNING COMMISSION REPORT
City of Anaheim
PLANNING AND BUILDING DEPARTMENT
DATE: FEBRUARY 5, 2018
SUBJECT: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2017-05942
LOCATION: 1081 North Tustin Avenue, Units 116 & 117 (Square Room Escape)
APPLICANT/PROPERTY OWNER: The applicant is Ryan King and the property
owner is Pac Center Acquisition Partners LLC, represented by Brett Weekley.
REQUEST: The applicant is requesting approval of a conditional use permit to
permit an indoor entertainment facility, known as an “escape room”, within two
existing commercial tenant spaces.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve
the attached resolution (Attachment No. 1), 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. 2017-05942.
BACKGROUND: This 1.2-acre property is developed with two retail commercial
buildings and is part of a larger commercial complex known as “PacifiCenter”. The
property is located in the Transit Oriented Area (Development Area 3) of the
Anaheim Canyon Specific Plan “SP 2015-1, DA 3”. The General Plan designates the
property for Mixed Use land uses. Surrounding land uses include commercial uses to
the south and west across Tustin Avenue, an office building to the west, and a gas
station and industrial uses to the north across La Palma Avenue.
PROPOSAL: The applicant proposes to permit a 3,560 square foot indoor
entertainment facility, known as the Square Escape Room. The facility includes four
escape rooms, a reception lobby and restrooms. No changes to the exterior of the
building are proposed.
The Square Escape Room is an interactive gaming facility where participants use
communication, team building and problem solving to decipher puzzles and clues in
order to “escape” a room before time runs out. The facility includes a “set”
consisting of rooms and passageways created for an immersive customer experience.
The Square Escape Room would offer four unique experiences, each entertaining
groups of 3-8 people. Every room would be equipped with security cameras,
emergency exits, and two-way communication between customers and employees.
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2017-05942
February 5, 2018
Page 2 of 3
The escape room experiences would take approximately 60 minutes. There is a 30 minute reset
time for players to debrief in the lobby area, take pictures, and exit the facility, while the next
group of participants is informed of the safety rules. The hours of operation for the business
would be from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m. seven days a week and would be operated by 2-4
employees at any given time.
Although the request for the Square Escape Room is independent of other activities in the
business complex, it should be noted that the site would be affected by a larger development
application currently being processed by the City of Anaheim. The Link OC project, which
encompasses a larger development area, proposes to develop two multi-family residential
communities along with a 5,000 square foot retail building within the PacifiCenter business
park. The impact of the Link OC development on the overall parking supply is further
discussed below.
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.
A conditional use permit is required to permit indoor entertainment facilities in this zone in
order to determine compatibility with the surrounding area. Staff believes that the use would be
compatible with other businesses in the surrounding area because entertainment activities would
occur entirely within the commercial unit and adequate parking for the use would be provided
as described in the parking analysis below. Furthermore, the proposed operating hours would
occur after normal business hours for the complex. With the conditions imposed, such as
restricting the operation to those outlined in the attached Letter of Request (Attachment No. 2)
and limiting the sessions to eight participants each, the establishment of this use would not
impact the operations of other nearby commercial businesses or be detrimental to the health and
safety of the citizens of the City of Anaheim.
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2017-05942
February 5, 2018
Page 3 of 3
Parking: The Anaheim Municipal Code stipulates that parking requirements be calculated by
combining the needs of the entertainment facility with the other restaurant, retail and office uses
on the property. Since the parking requirement for an indoor entertainment use isn’t
specifically listed in the parking code, a shared parking analysis was prepared by a consulting
firm “LSA” (Attachment No. 3) to determine the parking demand. The parking analysis
concluded that the proposed entertainment facility and other existing uses in the business center
would require a total of 193 parking spaces, 14 of which would be required for the proposed
indoor entertainment facility. The property contains a total of 262 parking spaces, which is
more than the amount of spaces required for the entire business complex.
The applicant has indicated that most participants drive to the facility in groups. The peak
parking demand for the indoor entertainment use is in the evening and weekends, which is
during the off-peak hours of the other office uses within the center. Even with the existing fast-
food and take-out restaurant uses, adequate parking will be provided. Therefore, staff concurs
with the parking study’s analysis and conclusion that 262 parking spaces would accommodate
all of the businesses on the site, including the proposed indoor entertainment use. Further, the
parking study considers changes in parking demand for the commercial uses should the Link
OC project proceed and be constructed. The commercial area of the Link OC project would be
restriped to reduce the amount of parking from 262 spaces to 228 spaces in order to
accommodate a new 5,000 square foot commercial building. The 228 parking spaces would
still exceed the required parking for all of the planned commercial uses. All residential parking
proposed with the Link OC project would not be dependent on this commercial parking area.
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 conditions exist for Planning Commission to make the
required findings to approve this request. The proposed indoor entertainment gaming facility is
compatible with the on-site retail, office, and restaurant uses in the surrounding area. The
number of parking spaces provided is adequate to accommodate the gaming facility and no
impacts the adjacent businesses are anticipated. Staff recommends approval of this request.

RESOLUTION NO. PC2018-***
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF ANAHEIM APPROVING CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2017-05942
AND MAKING CERTAIN FINDINGS IN CONNECTION THEREWITH
(DEV2017-00109)
(1081 NORTH TUSTIN AVENUE, SUITES 116 AND 117)
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Anaheim (the "Planning
Commission") did receive a verified petition to approve Conditional Use Permit No. 2017-
05942 to permit an indoor entertainment gaming facility known as the Square Escape Room,
(herein referred to as the "Proposed Project") for premises located at 1081 North Tustin
Avenue, Suites 116 and 117 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 1.23 acres in size and is currently
developed with two commercial buildings. The Property is located in the Transit Oriented
Area (Development Area 3) of the Anaheim Canyon Specific Plan “SP 2015-1, DA 3” and is
subject to the zoning and development standards of Chapter 18.120 Anaheim Canyon Specific
Plan No. 2015-1 (SP 2015-1) Zoning and Development Standards. The Anaheim General
Plan designates the Property for Mixed Use land uses; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did hold a public hearing at the Civic
Center in the City of Anaheim on February 5, 2018 at 5:00 p.m., and 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. 2017-05942, and to investigate and make findings and
recommendations in connection therewith; and
WHEREAS, as the "lead agency" under the California Environmental Quality Act
(Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq.; herein referred to as “CEQA”), the Planning
Commission finds and determines that the Proposed Project is within that class of projects
(i.e., Class 1 – Existing Facilities) which consist of the repair, maintenance, and/or minor
alteration of existing public or private structures or facilities, involving negligible or no
expansion of use beyond that existing at the time of this determination, and that, therefore,
pursuant to Section 15301 of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations, the Proposed
Project will not cause a significant effect on the environment and is, therefore, categorically
exempt from the provisions of CEQA; and
- 2 - PC2018-***
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-
05942, does find and determine the following:
1. The proposed request to permit an indoor entertainment gaming facility
within an existing commercial building is properly one for which a conditional use permit is
authorized under the classes of allowable uses set forth in Section No. 18.120.040.010 of the
Code.
2. The proposed conditional use permit to permit an indoor entertainment
gaming facility, as conditioned herein, would not adversely affect the adjoining land uses and
the growth and development of the area in which it is proposed to be located because the
building is surrounded by compatible buildings and uses; and, the entertainment gaming
facility would be located within an existing building with no adverse effects to adjoining land
uses.
3. The size and shape of the site for the use is adequate to allow the full
development of the indoor entertainment gaming facility in a manner not detrimental to the
particular area or to the health and safety because the facility would be located within an
existing commercial building that is surrounded by other commercial uses.
4. The traffic generated by the indoor entertainment gaming facility 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 as the
proposed land use will continue to be integrated with the surrounding commercial area and
would not pose a health or safety risk to the citizens of the City of Anaheim.
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission determines that the evidence in the record
constitutes substantial evidence to support the actions taken and the findings made in this
Resolution, that the facts stated in this Resolution are supported by substantial evidence in the
record, including testimony received at the public hearing, the staff presentations, the staff
report and all materials in the project files. There is no substantial evidence, nor are there
other facts, that detract from the findings made in this Resolution. The Planning Commission
expressly declares that it considered all evidence presented and reached these findings after
due consideration of all evidence presented to it.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission does
hereby approve Conditional Use Permit No. No. 2017-05942, 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. 2017-05942 in order to preserve the health,
- 3 - PC2018-***
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 February 5, 2018. 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.

Description of Proposed Use
We will be using this location as an expansion location for our existing Square Room Escape
business. The main idea behind a room escape is that a small group of people are given a time
limit to solve puzzles and riddles to find their way out of the room.
The business would be run primarily through appointments and accepting walk-ins only if there
are no current bookings. Each room can be attempted by groups of 3-8 people, and in this
location, we would aim to create between 3-4 separate rooms.
Each room will be equipped with security cameras as well as either an alarm buzzer or two way
communication between those in the room and the employee working the shift. Furthermore, an
emergency exit will always be provided for patrons inside the room.
No extra offices will be built for administrative use on-site, this will all be done off-site.

Subject: Link OC Shared Parking Analysis
Dear Mr. Carvalho:
LSA is pleased to submit this analysis of parking for the Square Escape Room project (Project) at the
PacifiCenter in Anaheim. The PacifiCenter site is at the southwest corner of Tustin Avenue/La Palma
Avenue in the Canyon district in Anaheim. The PacifiCenter consists of 25.71 acres bounded by La
Palma Avenue, Tustin Avenue, the State Route 91 westbound on-ramp, and BNSF Railway railroad
tracks. Vehicular access to the site is provided via signalized intersections at Tustin
Avenue/PacifiCenter Drive and PacifiCenter Drive/La Palma Avenue. The commercial retail center
parking lot for the Project is accessed by a right-in/right-out driveway on Tustin Avenue and a full-
access driveway on Pacificenter Drive. The PacifiCenter is in Development Area 3 (Transit Oriented
Area) of the Anaheim Canyon Specific Plan. The Anaheim Canyon Specific Plan does not change the
City of Anaheim’s parking standards for land uses in the specific plan area. Parking and loading
provisions in Anaheim Municipal Code (AMC) Section 18.42.040 apply to this Project.
The Project would include tenant improvements in the existing commercial retail center to construct
a 3,560 square foot (sf) escape room. Escape rooms are a form of commercial indoor recreation in
which customers are given a time limit to solve puzzles within a themed space. The AMC does not
specify a parking rate for this type of commercial indoor recreation and instead requires a parking
demand study. The purpose of this letter is to serve as that parking demand study.
Operational Parking Demand
The Project applicant has an existing location in a commercial retail center in Irvine and provided
operational data based on the experience at that location. The existing location has two rooms
within 1,088 sf of space. The maximum number of employees on site is two, and groups of three to
six customers can use each room. Customers reserve a time slot in advance. Customers are given a
1-hour time limit to complete the puzzles. Given the time required for employees to reset the
puzzles, groups are not scheduled to overlap. Based on 2 years of operation at the current location,
the applicant has observed that the busiest times are weekends when all time slots might be
reserved. During weekdays, the most popular time slot is 8:00 p.m.
At the proposed location, the 3,560 sf space could hold four rooms. A minimum of two employees
would be on site, with a maximum of four employees during the busiest times. Group sizes would be
limited to three to six customers per room for three of the rooms. One room would have a
maximum of eight customers. Customers would be able to reserve a 1-hour time slot. One half-hour
would be provided between time slots to allow employees to reset the puzzles. This separation of
ATTACHMENT NO. 3
12/15/17 «P:\HNS1601\Escape Room\Parking Letter2.docx» 2
time slots means that one group would not arrive and wait while another group is in their reserved
room. At times when all four rooms are occupied, a minimum of 12 and a maximum of 26 customers
would be on site. The business charges a fee per person, and not per room. From the operator’s
experience, it is unlikely that all rooms would be reserved by the maximum group size
simultaneously. On average, 19 customers would be on site when all four rooms are reserved. As a
group activity, an average vehicle occupancy of 2 customers per vehicle is expected for
approximately 10 customer vehicles. During these busiest times, there would be four employees
with four employee vehicles; therefore, the maximum parking demand would be 14 vehicles.
It should be noted that the anticipated Project parking demand, based on operational experience at
the Applicant’s existing location, is similar to a retail or personal services parking rate of four spaces
per 1,000 sf (4 spaces/1,000 sf x 3,560 sf = 14.24 spaces).
Commercial Retail Center Parking Demand
As previously mentioned, the Project would be located within an existing building in the commercial
retail center. The existing commercial retail center has 29,527 sf of total space consisting of two
fast-food restaurants on separate pads and retail, personal services, medical/dental office, and
restaurant uses in two additional buildings. AMC 18.42.040 states at all uses other than restaurants
within large commercial retail centers are to be parked at a rate of four spaces per 1,000 sf of gross
floor area, and that restaurants within retail centers with 40 percent or less of gross floor area
devoted to restaurant uses are to be parked at a rate of four spaces per 1,000 sf. However, this
analysis conservatively analyzes the parking requirement for each individual use within the
commercial retail center. Table A presents the off-street parking spaces required for each individual
land use within the commercial retail center.

PLANNING COMMISSION REPORT
City of Anaheim
PLANNING AND BUILDING DEPARTMENT
DATE: FEBRUARY 5, 2018
SUBJECT: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2017-05944
LOCATION: 2930 West Ball Road (Anaheim School)
APPLICANT/PROPERTY OWNER: The applicant is Denise Campos and the
property owner is Anaheim Community Church (ACC), represented by Edward
Caballero.
REQUEST: The applicant is requesting approval of a conditional use permit to
allow a preschool/kindergarten within an existing church facility.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve
the attached resolution (Attachment No. 1), 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. 2017-05944.
BACKGROUND: This 3.1-acre property is developed with a church facility and is
located in “T” Transition Zone. The General Plan designation for the subject
property is “C-NC” Neighborhood Center. Surrounding land uses include retail uses
and a trailer park to the west, retail uses to the north across Ball Road, single and
multi-family residential uses to the east, and commercial and residential uses located
in the City of Stanton to the south.
PROPOSAL: The applicant proposes to operate a preschool/kindergarten facility
by occupying approximately 3,226 square feet of space located within the rear
portion of the existing church building. The maximum enrollment of the proposed
preschool/kindergarten is 60 children, with approximately eight to ten staff
members. The proposed hours of operation would be from 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.,
Monday through Friday. The school facility would include four classrooms, a small
kitchen, an office, two restrooms, and storage spaces. The school would also utilize
the existing outdoor church playground area that is located adjacent to the proposed
school space as the required outdoor play areas for the children. No changes to the
exterior of the building are proposed.

FINDINGS AND ANALYSIS: 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.
Preschool/kindergarten facilities are allowed in the Transition zone subject to the approval of
a conditional use permit to ensure compatibility with the surrounding uses. The subject
property is adjacent to both commercial and residential uses, with the most sensitive use
being single-family homes located immediately to the east of the proposed school facility.
One of typical concerns associated with such facilities is the noise generated by the children;
however, since this is an education-based preschool/kindergarten facility, a greater portion of
the day is allocated for indoor instruction and activities. Outdoor activities are typically
limited to two sessions a day, each lasting less than an hour. Also, the outdoor playground
area which would be used for the school is already existing. The playground is currently
utilized by the existing church and there is an existing six-foot high block wall that separates
the subject property and the adjacent single-family homes. The playground is located
approximately 15 feet from the east property line that abuts single-family homes.
Additionally, there would be no evening noise that would affect the neighboring properties
since the operating hours of the preschool/kindergarten will end at 6:00 p.m.
The existing 189 on-site parking spaces is more than sufficient to accommodate the proposed
preschool/kindergarten, as the Code required parking for the proposed
preschool/kindergarten is 17 parking spaces (1 space per employee, plus 1 space per 10
children, plus 1 space for loading and unloading). Since the proposed hours of operation do
not conflict with the main operating hours of the existing church (ie. worship services on
Sunday) there will be ample parking spaces available on-site. The existing church does not
conduct any day time services or meetings during weekdays. The only activities that occur
during weekdays is bible study meetings on Wednesday evenings at 7:00 p.m. Also, in order
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2017-05944
February 5, 2018
Page 3 of 3
to facilitate safe traffic flow and the drop-off and pick-up activities, the applicant proposes to
add traffic guiding signs (ie. ground-painted traffic arrows and a “do not enter” sign)
throughout the parking lot and designate the parking spaces located to the west of the
proposed preschool/kindergarten as a drop-off and pick-up zone during the school’s business
hours. Conditions of approval are included in the draft resolution requiring compliance with
the proposed hours of operation and the establishment of the drop-off and pick-up zone.
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 proposed preschool/kindergarten is an appropriate
use on the subject property, and will not negatively impact the surrounding uses because
most activities will occur indoors on weekdays from 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. In addition, the
proposed preschool/kindergarten facility will provide a valuable service to the community.
Therefore, staff recommends approval of this conditional use permit request.

A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION
OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM APPROVING CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
NO. 2017-05944 AND MAKING CERTAIN FINDINGS
IN CONNECTION THEREWITH
(DEV2017-00115)
(2930 WEST BALL ROAD)
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Anaheim (the "Planning
Commission") did receive a verified petition to approve Conditional Use Permit No. 2017-05944
to permit a preschool/kindergarten facility by occupying approximately 3,226 square feet of space
located within the rear of an existing church facility (referred to herein as the "Proposed Project")
for that certain real property located at 2930 West Ball Road 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 3.1 acres in size and is currently
developed with an existing church. The Anaheim General Plan designates the Property for
Neighborhood Center land uses. The Property is located in the “T” Transition Zone. As such, the
Property is subject to the zoning and development standards described in Chapter 18.14 (Public
and Special-Purpose Zones) of the Anaheim Municipal Code (the "Code"); and
WHEREAS, on February 5, 2018, the Planning Commission did hold a public
hearing at the Civic Center in the City of Anaheim, notice of said public hearing having been duly
given in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 18.60 (Procedures) of the Code, to hear and
consider evidence for and against proposed Conditional Use Permit No. 2017-05944 and to
investigate and make findings and recommendations in connection therewith; and
WHEREAS, as the "lead agency" under the California Environmental Quality Act
(Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq.; herein referred to as “CEQA”), the Planning
Commission finds and determines that the Proposed Project is within that class of projects (i.e.,
Class 1 – Existing Facilities) which consist of the repair, maintenance, and/or minor alteration of
existing public or private structures or facilities, involving negligible or no expansion of use
beyond that existing at the time of this determination, and that, therefore, pursuant to Section 15301
of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations, the Proposed Project will not cause a significant
effect on the environment and is, therefore, categorically exempt from the provisions of CEQA;
and
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 to permit a preschool/kindergarten facility at an existing church facility,
does find and determine the following facts:
- 2 - PC2018-***
1. The proposed request to permit the Proposed Project is properly one for which
a conditional use permit is authorized under the classes of allowable uses set forth in Table 14-A
as "Day Care Centers", as referenced in paragraph .0402 of subsection .040 of Section No.
18.14.030 of the Code.
2. The proposed request to permit the Proposed Project, as conditioned herein,
would not adversely affect the abutting businesses or residences, nor the growth and development
of the area in which it is proposed to be located because the proposed facility will close at 6:00
p.m. on weekdays, and the outdoor activities will occur in a limited manner within an area that is
already being utilized as an outdoor playground area for the existing church.
3. The size and shape of the site for the Proposed Project 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 because the facility would be located within an existing church building without
any additions or new construction.
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, adequate parking will be provided to accommodate the use, and measures will be
implemented to provide more efficient on-site circulation.
5. The granting of the conditional use permit under the conditions imposed will
not be detrimental to the health and safety of the citizens of the City of Anaheim as the proposed
use will continue to be integrated within the existing church and would not pose a health or safety
risk to the citizens of the City of Anaheim.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission does
hereby approve Conditional Use Permit No. 2017-05944, contingent upon and subject to the
conditions of approval described in Exhibit B attached hereto and incorporated herein by this
reference, which are hereby found to be a necessary prerequisite to the proposed use of the Property
in order to preserve the health, safety and general welfare of the citizens of the City of Anaheim.
Extensions for further time to complete conditions of approval may be granted in accordance with
Section 18.60.170 of the Code. Timing for compliance with conditions of approval may be
amended by the Planning Director upon a showing of good cause provided (i) equivalent timing is
established that satisfies the original intent and purpose of the condition (s), (ii) the modification
complies with the Code and (iii) the applicant has demonstrated significant progress toward
establishment of the use or approved development.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that any amendment, modification or revocation
of this permit may be processed in accordance with Chapters 18.60.190 (Amendment to Permit
Approval) and 18.60.200 (City-Initiated Revocation or Modification of Permits) of the Anaheim
Municipal Code.
- 3 - PC2018-***
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 Anaheim Municipal
Code and any other applicable City, State and Federal regulations. Approval does not include any
action or findings as to compliance or approval of the request regarding any other applicable
ordinance, regulation or requirement.
THE FOREGOING RESOLUTION was adopted at the Planning Commission
meeting of February 5, 2018. Said Resolution is subject to the appeal provisions set forth in
Chapter 18.60 of the Anaheim Municipal Code pertaining to appeal procedures and may be
replaced by a City Council Resolution in the event of an appeal.

LOCATION: Citywide
APPLICANT: City of Anaheim
REQUEST: This is a City-initiated amendment to Title 18 of the Anaheim
Municipal Code (the “Zoning Code” or “Code”) to provide regulatory relief and

adopting the attached resolution (Attachment 1), determine that this action is
exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act under Section 15061(b)(3)
of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations, and recommend City Council
approval of Zoning Code Amendment No. 2017-00146, Adjustment No. 12 to the
Disneyland Resort Specific Plan No. 92-1 (SPN92-1R), Adjustment No. 9 to the
Anaheim Resort Specific Plan No. 92-2 (SPN92-2W), Adjustment No. 9 to the

Page 2 of 5
BACKGROUND: In 2011, the Anaheim City Council approved the Mayor’s Regulatory
Relief Task Force recommendations to promote business-friendly initiatives aimed at
reducing the regulatory burden on new or existing businesses. Since then, the City Council
has approved a number of amendments to the City’s Zoning Code to support the Task Force’s
recommendations. Such amendments included the consolidation and streamlining of the
regulatory permit process, reduction in the level of review required for several land uses,
creation of an administrative permit process for reviewing requests for shared parking, and the
creation of a “Brew-City” initiative. In addition, the City created a Business Assistance
“Concierge” Program where business owners are assigned a Business Solutions Specialist
who answers processing questions, implements an impact fee deferral program, monitors the
progress of projects, and facilitates communication between City staff and business owners. In
a continued effort to provide regulatory relief, staff reviewed Anaheim’s existing code and
permitting practices in order to identify additional potential changes to the City’s Zoning
Code with a focus in further streamlining the entitlement process for existing and new
businesses in the City. The amendments proposed below reflect this analysis.
PROPOSAL: The following is an overview of the proposed changes to provide additional
regulatory relief through the amendment of the City’s Zoning Code. Staff proposes the
following changes based on research of other jurisdictions’ best practices, analysis of
Conditional Use Permits (CUPs) that the Planning Commission has recently approved, and
review of the City’s existing Zoning Code requirements. The draft ordinance showing
redlined changes to the existing Zoning Code is Exhibit A to Attachment 1. Attachment 2
provides a summary of the proposed changes.
Establishment of Minor CUP Process: The City’s Zoning Code currently categorizes land
uses as permitted, conditionally permitted, or prohibited. When the Zoning Code categorizes a
land use as conditionally permitted, the property owner is required to obtain an approval of a
CUP, which is a discretionary permit that requires review by the Planning Commission at a
noticed public hearing. Typically, a $10,000 deposit is required at the time of application
submittal, and the review process averages between two to six months. However, the time and
cost associated with processing a CUP varies depending on the complexity of the application.
The Zoning Code requires a CUP for land uses that the City has determined to have certain
characteristics that may require compliance with conditions to ensure compatibility with
surrounding land uses and to mitigate potential impacts. However, upon examining the City’s
Zoning Code and the history of previously-approved CUPs, staff identified certain land uses
that are well-suited to being reviewed through a more streamlined discretionary process since
actual experience has proven such land uses consistently operate without negatively impacting
nearby properties with incorporation of minimal and/or standard conditions. In addition,
because most of these types of uses are small businesses operated by individual business
owners, a streamlined discretionary review process can provide a benefit, as it will save time
and processing costs.

Staff examined the CUP process and Zoning Code requirements of a number of cities in the
region (cities located in the County of Orange and four other comparable cities). A number of
surveyed cities currently have a tiered CUP process that includes a “Minor CUP” or an
“Administrative Use Permit” process, in addition to a typical CUP process. These minor and
administrative use permits apply to land uses that require less staff time and are routine in
nature. Many cities also process such permits without a public hearing at the Planning
Director’s discretion. In cases where a public hearing is required, the hearing may be
conducted by a Zoning Administrator, Hearing Officer, or the Planning Director which
expedites the process while still allowing for notification and public participation.
Based on the research of other cities’ codes, practices and options for streamlining the CUP
process for the City of Anaheim, staff is proposing the creation of a “Minor CUP” process for
certain land uses that currently require a CUP, but are routine in nature and less complex. As
reflected in the attached Draft Ordinance, staff proposes that the Planning Director be given
the authority to either approve or deny Minor CUP applications without the need for a public
hearing. The elimination of the public hearing from the review process will result in a
streamlined review process, with a shortened review period and reduced application costs to
business owners seeking to establish a new business in the City. However, in order to
sufficiently inform the public of Minor CUP applications, staff proposes that public notices
for all Minor CUP applications be sent to property owners and tenants within 300 feet of the
project location at least 10 days prior to the Planning and Building Director’s decision.
Attachment 3 is an example of the type of notice the property owners would receive. As with
other director level reviews, the Planning Director will have an authority to refer any Minor
CUP application to the Planning Commission for its review and approval if the Director
concludes there are special or unique circumstances associated with the application.
The proposed Minor CUP process will provide benefits to the business owners with the
streamlined review, while maintaining the City’s ability to properly review and impose
conditions, as deemed necessary, to reduce any potential impacts of the proposed land uses.
With the required notice, the public will continue to be informed and would be able to contact
staff and provide input that could be incorporated into conditions of approval.
Revised Permitting for Certain Land Uses: Staff is proposing to permit certain land uses with
the Minor CUP that the City currently allows subject to the approval of a CUP. Staff selected
land uses based on their less complex nature and the historical observation that the
characteristics of these uses have allowed for a more routine level of review and standardized
conditions of approval. These land uses include on-site alcohol sales as an accessory use to
restaurants, public parking facilities, minor automotive repair shops, wholesale automotive
sales offices with limited outdoor display, small dance and fitness studios, business
educational institutions, general office uses including medical/dental in certain zones, retail
kiosks, and senior second units. In addition, staff is proposing to permit several land uses by
right that the Code currently permits with a CUP. These uses include research and
development businesses in various zones and outdoor dining as an accessory use to restaurants
in commercial zones.
ZONING CODE AMENDMENT NO. 2017-00146
February 5, 2018
Page 4 of 5
Staff is proposing changes to the Semi-Public and Public Recreational Zones to provide a
permitting process for community centers, dance and fitness studios, retail kiosks and health
clinics and other offices. The Semi-Public and Public Recreational Zones typically implement
the General Plan Parks land use designation; however, they prohibit certain uses that would be
complimentary to a park use. City owned facilities are not required to comply with these
zoning restrictions but private operators would need to comply; and, therefore would be
prohibited from operating these uses. Staff is proposing a permitting process for these uses to
allow private operators to collaborate with the City to operate these uses at City parks.
Staff is also proposing changes to the permitting requirements for Convalescent and Rest
Homes and Group Care Facilities within the Neighborhood Center Commercial and Regional
Commercial Zones and Development Areas 4 and 5 of the Anaheim Canyon Specific Plan.
The proposed changes would require a CUP for these uses, which are currently prohibited,
consistent with the current requirements for the General Commercial Zone and Development
Area 3 of the Anaheim Canyon Specific Zone.
Automotive-related Land Use: Staff has identified several automobile-oriented land uses that
this Zoning Code Amendment would address. As part of its analysis, staff noted that the
City’s Zoning Code currently does not adequately address valet parking. The proposed
amendment would add a definition for valet parking to the Code and allow the use subject to
the approval of a Minor CUP, when the use is accessory to a permitted or conditionally
permitted primary use. This change would occur in most zones, with an exception of
Industrial zones, where the use would require a CUP. Staff is also proposing to modify the
existing definition for “Automotive – Repair & Modification” to create two separate
categories (Major and Minor). In addition, the Code amendment would modify the existing
definitions for “Transit Facility” and “Warehousing & Storage” to address a recent public
inquiry regarding a warehousing facility that is primarily used for product distribution.
Finally, the Code Amendment would create a new land use “Automotive – Vehicle Storage”
that would allow car dealerships, that operate in Anaheim, to store additional inventory on
commercial and industrial properties, subject to the approval of a Minor CUP or CUP,
depending on the length of time the property would be used for vehicle storage.
Determination of Public Convenience or Necessity: The Code amendment would give the
Planning and Building Director the authority to approve Public Convenience or Necessity
(PCN) applications that are associated with a Minor CUP, administrative permit, or that the
Code permits by right. The Planning and Building Director currently has this authority for
PCN’s associated with Alcoholic Beverages Manufacturing facilities that the Zoning Code
permits by right and Alcoholic Beverages Sale-Off-Sale in some specific plan areas. The
Planning Commission will continue to have authority over PCN determinations for
applications associated with an entitlement that requires Planning Commission approval.

Attracting and Retaining Restaurants: Restaurants play an important role in the City’s
commercial and economic base, and there has been consistent requests from the business
community to better accommodate new and existing restaurants in the City. As such, staff
reviewed the existing regulations that pertain to restaurants in order to identify additional
potential changes that could further assist new and existing restaurants. The Code currently
permits restaurants by right in commercial zones. However, staff identified that the City’s
existing regulations related to accessory uses that are commonly associated with restaurants,
such as alcohol sales and outdoor dining, may be an impediment to attracting and retaining
restaurants. The proposed Zoning Code Amendment would allow on-site sale of alcohol for
restaurants with a Minor CUP instead of a CUP. In addition, the Code amendment would allow
outdoor dining for restaurants by right in commercial areas. Additionally, if the Code permits a
restaurant to have on-site alcohol sales inside the restaurant, either by right or through the
approval of a Minor CUP or CUP, the restaurant may extend those sales to the outdoor dining
area without amending or requiring any additional discretionary permit. These changes provide a
streamlined review of two accessory uses that are often a vital part of a restaurant.
Application Fee: Staff will be recommending to the City Council that the City collect a deposit
and assess an hourly fee to process a Minor CUP, in the same manner that it currently charges to
process a CUP application. However, staff anticipates that the deposit for a Minor CUP will be
less than would be requested for a CUP. In the future, staff would like to offer a flat fee to
process a Minor CUP; however, the establishment of a fixed fee requires a nexus study. Planning
staff is currently working on nexus study for various planning applications, and a fee analysis for
Minor CUP application will be included in this study for future consideration.
ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission determine
that this action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act under Section
15061(b)(3) of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations on the basis that there is no
possibility that the Zoning Code amendment may have a significant effect on the environment.
CONCLUSION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission recommend approval of this
Zoning Code Amendment, and related Specific Plan Adjustments, to the City Council, as it
would further the City’s on-going effort in implementing regulatory relief for Anaheim
businesses. The proposed changes will provide a streamlined review process for a number of low
impact land uses, while retaining the City’s ability to properly review and impose conditions as
deemed necessary to ensure compatibility with the surrounding areas.

ZONING CODE AMENDMENT NO. 2017-00146
SUMMARY
As a part of this code amendment, new provisions and updates are proposed throughout the Zoning Code to
provide regulatory relief and streamline the approval process of certain low impact land uses by creating a Minor
Conditional Use Permit (“Minor CUP”) category. The following is a summary of the major changes proposed in
the ordinance.
1. The existing Conditional Use Permits and Procedures chapters are proposed to be amended to establish a
Minor CUP process. In summary, it is proposed that Minor CUP applications be reviewed at staff level
without a public hearing, where the Planning Director is designated as the decision making body for such
applications. However, it is proposed that a public notice be required prior to any decision is made to allow
for public input. The Planning Director has an authority to refer any Minor CUP applications for the
Planning Commission review and approval.
2. The following 10 existing land uses are changed to be permitted with a Minor CUP instead of a CUP:
a. Alcoholic Beverages Sales – On-Sale, only if accessory to a primary restaurant use (in Commercial,
Industrial, Public Recreational, Semi-Public and applicable Overlay Zones)
b. Automotive – Public Parking (in Commercial, Industrial, Semi-Public and applicable Overlay Zones)
c. Automotive – Repair & Modification: Minor (in Commercial, Industrial, and applicable Overlay
Zones and Specific Plans)
d. Automotive – Sales Agency Office (Wholesale), only if on-site storage, display or parking of
inventory is limited to two vehicles (in Commercial, Industrial, and applicable Overlay Zones and
Specific Plans)
e. Dance/Fitness Studios – Small (in Industrial, Public Recreational, Semi-Public and applicable
Overlay Zones)
f. Educational Institution – Business (in Commercial, Industrial, and applicable Overlay Zones and
Specific Plans)
g. Medical & Dental Offices (in Industrial Zones and applicable Specific Plans)
h. Offices – General (in Industrial Zones)
i. Retail Sales – Kiosks (in Commercial, Public Recreational, Semi-Public and applicable Overlay
Zones and Specific Plans)
j. Senior Second Units (in Single-family Residential Zones)
3. The following two existing land uses are changed to be permitted by right instead of a CUP:
a. Research and Development (in Commercial and applicable Overlay Zones and Specific Plans)
b. Restaurants – Outdoor Dining, with alcohol consumption and regardless of distance from residential
use (in Commercial Zones)
4. The following existing land use that is currently prohibited is proposed to be permitted by right:
a. Community & Religious Assembly (in Public Recreational Zone)
5. The following six existing land uses that are currently prohibited are proposed to be permitted with a CUP:
a. Dance and Fitness Studios-Large (in Public Recreational and Semi-Public Zones)
ATTACHMENT NO. 2
2
b. Medical and Dental Offices (in Public Recreational, Semi-Public, and Transition Zones)
c. Offices (in Public Recreational, Semi-Public, and Transition Zones)
d. Retail Kiosks (in Public Recreational and Semi-Public Zones)
e. Convalescent and Rest Homes (in the Neighborhood Center Commercial and Regional Commercial
Zones and Development Areas 4 and 5 of the Anaheim Canyon Specific Plan; the use currently
requires a CUP in the General Commercial Zone and Development Area 3 of the Anaheim Canyon
Specific Zone)
f. Group Care Facilities (in Development Areas 4 and 5 of the Anaheim Canyon Specific Plan; the use
currently requires a CUP Development Area 3 of the Anaheim Canyon Specific Zone)
6. The existing land use definition for “Automotive – Repair & Modification” is modified into two separate
categories with new definitions as follows:
a. “Automotive – Repair & Modification: Major.” This land use will include facilities that are engaged
primarily in substantial repair of automobiles and other vehicles such as boats, recreational vehicles
and water-sport vehicles, such as major body or paint work, major transmission and engine
repair/rebuilding, vehicle restorations, upholstering, frame work, welding, and other similar services
as determined by the Planning Director. This use excludes facilities that are used for the towing of
vehicles, sale, repair, and storage of trucks or other related equipment, or temporary storage of
vehicles that have been involved in accidents.
b. “Automotive – Repair & Modification: Minor.” This land use will include facilities that conduct
routine and incidental repair services of automobiles and other vehicles such as boats, recreational
vehicles and water-sport vehicles that are less extensive. Typical services include smog check, quick-
service oil, tune-up, brake and wheel service, accessory and tire installation and service, engine
adjustments, electrical work, front-end alignment, stereo installation, and window tinting, where all
repair services are conducted in enclosed bays, no vehicles are stored overnight, and there are no
outdoor storage of any materials, parts, and equipment. This use excludes facilities that are used for
the towing of vehicles, sale, repair, and storage of trucks or other related equipment, or temporary
storage of vehicles that have been involved in accidents.
7. The existing land use definitions for “Transit Facility” and “Warehousing & Storage” is modified to address
a recent public inquiry regarding a warehousing facility that is primarily used for product distribution. With
the change, such facility is to be considered as part of “Warehousing & Storage” land use, as long as the
products, goods, and materials to be moved/transferred are stored entirely within a building.
8. A new accessory land use definition is introduced for “Valet Parking.” This use means a parking service
provided to accommodate users of an establishment, which service is incidental to the establishment and by
which an attendant on behalf of the establishment takes temporary custody of the users’ vehicles and
moves, parks, stores or retrieves the vehicle. This land use is proposed to be allowed with a Minor CUP in
most zones where such service is commonly seen, including all commercial zones, multi-family residential
zones, applicable overlay and public/special purpose zones, and some specific plan areas. In Industrial Zone
and some areas within the Anaheim Canyon Specific Plan, this land use is proposed to be permitted with a
CUP. Additionally, this use will be permitted by right in Disneyland Resort Specific Plan due to its unique
nature.
9. A new non-residential primary use class is introduced for “Automotive-Vehicle Storage.” This type of use
consists of properties used for the temporary off-site storage of inventory for the type of use “Automotive-
Vehicle Sales, Lease & Rental,” such as automobile dealerships. The vehicle storage is limited to
dealerships that operate in the City of Anaheim. The Code amendment would permit the use by Minor CUP
ATTACHMENT NO. 2

or CUP in all commercial and industrial zones and within the Transition Zone on properties designated by
the General Plan for commercial and industrial land use. The Code amendment would permit the use for up
to one year by a minor conditional use permit, with optional one-year extensions to permit the use for up to
five years. A conditional use permit would be required to permit the use for over five years.
10. The Code amendment would give the Planning and Building Director the authority to approve Public
Convenience or Necessity (PCN) applications that are associated with a Minor CUP, administrative permit,
or that the Code permits by right. The Planning and Building Director currently has this authority for PCNs
associated with Alcoholic Beverages Manufacturing facilities that the Zoning Code permits by right and
Alcoholic Beverages Sale-Off-Sale in some specific plan areas. For PCN applications that include an
entitlement request that requires Planning Commission approval, the Planning Commission will continue to
have authority over the PCN determination.
