WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Anaheim ("Planning Commission")
did receive a verified petition to approve Conditional Use Permit No. 2017-05943 to conditionally
permit the establishment and operation of a brewery to include ancillary offices, tasting room,
outdoor patio, live entertainment, on and off -premises sales and consumption of beer, banquet hall,
and a mural visible from the public right-of-way at 3191 East La Palma Avenue in the City of
Anaheim (the Property"). The Property is generally depicted on the map attached hereto as Exhibit
A and incorporated herein by this reference; and
WHEREAS, the Property, consisting of approximately 4.29 acres, is developed with an
existing industrial building. The Land Use Element of the Anaheim General Plan designates the
Property for "I -L" Industrial land uses. The Property is located in the Anaheim Canyon Specific
Plan, Development Area 1 (Industrial Area); and
WHEREAS, Conditional Use Permit No. 2017-05943 has been requested to
conditionally permit the sale of beer for on- and off -premises consumption in
conjunction with a brewery, and to permit a banquet hall, with live entertainment at
the Property. Conditional Use Permit No. 2017-05943 shall be referred to herein as the
"Proposed Project"; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did hold a public hearing at the Civic Center in the
City of Anaheim on April 16, 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
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, 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
- 1 - PC2018-020
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

determine the following facts:

patio, a banquet hall, live entertainment, on and off -premises sales and consumption of alcoholic
beverages and a mural visible from the public right-of-way, "ACSP DA -1" Anaheim Canyon
Specific Plan Development Area 1 under Section 18.120.040 (Uses) of Chapter 18.120 (Anaheim
Canyon Specific Plan No. 2015-1) of the Code, subject to a conditional use permit and the zoning
and development standards of the "ACSP DA -1" Anaheim Canyon Specific Plan Development
Area 1.
2. The uses proposed under Conditional Use Permit No. 2017-05943, under the conditions
imposed, are compatible with the existing industrial uses in the surrounding area.
3. The size and shape of the site for the uses proposed under Conditional Use Permit No.
2017-05943 are, under the conditions imposed, adequate to allow the full development of the
proposed uses in a manner not detrimental to the particular area or to the health and safety because
the Project will adhere to all required land use standards.
4. The traffic generated by the uses proposed under Conditional Use Permit No. 2017-
05943, 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 exceed the anticipated volumes of traffic on the surrounding streets.
5. The granting of Conditional Use Permit No. 2017-05943, under the conditions
imposed, will not be detrimental to the health and safety of the citizens of the City of Anaheim as
the proposed project will be compatible with the surrounding area through conditions of approval
for the use and is not a health or safety risk to the citizens of the City of Anaheim.
and;

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

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
