THAT PETITION FOR CONDITIONAL USEPERMIT NO. 2005-04960 BE GRANTED
(2230 WEST COLCHESTER DRIVE, SUITES 1-5)
WHEREAS, the Anaheim Planning Commission did receive a verified Petition for Conditional
Use Permit for certain real property situated in the City ofAnaheim, County of Orange, State of California;
described as:
LOTS 1, 2, 3 AND 4 OF TRACT NO. 2701,AS PER MAP RECORDED IN BOOK 115,
PAGES 5 AND 6 OF MISCELLANEOUS MAPS, IN THE OFFICE OF THE COUNTY
RECORDER OF SAID COUNTY.
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did hold a public hearing at the Civic Center in the
City of Anaheim on March 21, 2005, at 2:00 p.m., notice of said public hearing having been duly given as
required by law and in accordance with the provisions of the Anaheim Municipal Code, Chapter 18.60
"Procedures", to hear and consider evidence #or and against said proposed conditional use permit and to
investigate 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 facts:
1. That the use is properly one for which a conditional use permit is authorized by Anaheim
Municipal Code Sections 18.08.030.040.0402 to permit and retain an existing church with waiver of the
following:
SECTIONS 18.42.040 Minimum number of parking spaces.
AND 18.08.070 (213 required; 64 existing and proposed and
recommended by the Traffic and Transportation
Manager)
2. That the parking study indicates that peak parking demand for off-street parking spaces is
substantially lower than the quantity provided for the uses on the site.
3. That the proposed project will not increase or compete for on-street parking because the
parking lot has more than adequate parking to accommodate this church and other assembly and
commercial tenants comprising this commercial center.
4. That the parking study indicates the property's parking area is sufficient to accommodate the
demand of parking generated by this assembly use and other uses on the property and therefore would not
increase the demand for parking spaces upon adjacent private property in the immediate vicinity of the site.
5. That the project will not cause increased traffic congestion within off-street parking areas of
the site because, based on the applicant's parking study and staff's inspections, on-site parking is only 65%-
70% occupied during peak parking demand periods during the week and 95% on the weekend.
6. That the on-site parking area has a total of three (3) access outlets. Peak traffic demands
occur on Sundays and weeknights only. No impeding of traffic access into or out of the adjacent parking lots
was observed during parking demand surveys of the project parking lot.
7. That the proposed use is properly one for which a conditional use permit is authorized by the
Zoning Code.

8. That the proposed use as conditioned herein will not adversely affect the adjoining land uses
and the growth and development of the area in which it is proposed to be located.
9. That the size and shape of the site for the proposed use is adequate to allow the full `
development of the use in a manner not detrimental to the particular area nor to the peace, health, safety,
and general welfare.
10. That the traffic generated by the use will not impose an undue burden upon the streets and
highways designed and improved to carry the traffic in the area.
11. That 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.
12. That four (4) people indicated their presence at said public hearing in opposition; and that no
correspondence was received in opposition to the subject petition.

Commission has reviewed the proposal to permit and retain an existing church in conjunction with a
commercial retail center with waiver of minimum number of parking spaces; and does hereby approve the
