given as required by law and in accordance with the provisions of the Anaheim Municipal Code, Chapter'

and make findings and recommendations in connection therewith; and
WHEREAS, said 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, does find
and determine the following #acts:
1. ' That the proposed use is properly one for which a conditional use permit is`authorized by
Anaheim Municipal Code Section Nos. 18.14:030.020 and 18.44.050!010.0101 to construct an on-site
electronic reader board sign at an existingregional sports and event facility (Arrowhead Pond of Anaheim).
2. That the proposed use wilf not'adversely affect the adjoining )and uses or the growth and
development of the area in which it is proposed to be located because the sign is compatible with the primary
use of the property as a regional event facility. The height of the sign, as proposed, is necessary due to the
grade elevation and curvature of the SR 57 along this portion of the state highway, and the sign's size and
scale are consistent with other local regional event and entertainment venues including Angel Stadium of
Anaheim.
3. That no traffic would be generated by the sign as an accessory advertising device and
therefore, would not impose an undue burden upon the streets and highways designed and improved to
carry the traffic in the area.
4. 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.
5. That no one indicated their presence at said public hearing in opposition; and that no
correspondence was received in opposition to the subject petition.

Planning Commission has reviewed the proposal to construct an on-site electronic readerboard sign at an
existing regional sports and event facility (Arrowhead Pond of Anaheim) and the Initial Study (a copy of
which is available for review in the Planning Department) and finds no significant environmental impact and,
therefore, recommends that a Negative Declaration be approved upon a finding by the Planning Commission
that the Negative Declaration reflects the independent judgment of the lead agency; and that it has
considered the proposed Negative Declaration together with any comments received during fhe public review
process and further finding on the basis of the Initial Study and any comments received that there is no
substantial evidence that the project will have a significant effect on the environment.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Anaheim City Planning Commission does
hereby grant subject petition for Conditional Use Permit, upon the following conditions which are hereby
found to be a necessary prerequisite to the proposed use of the subject property in order topreserve the
