', and finds no signifioant environmental impact and, therefore, recommends that a Negative
Deolatationbe approved upon a finding by the Planning Commission that the Negative
-0eclaration refleots the independent judgment of the ead agency; and that it has
considered tte proposed Negative Declaration together with any comments received during
the public review process and furtherfinding on the basis of the Initial Study and any
bommente received that there. is no substential evidence that the project will have a
significant effect oh the environment.

the blllierd hall was established prio[to 2004, and no expenslon or intensification is
c being requested, (enly interior modifications are proposed), the use is a legally non-
conforming and'may bebontinued provided compliance Is maintained with the
provisions of Chapter 18.56 (Nonconformitiee) of theZoning Code.! The billiard hall
Is currently permitted for a maximum of 17 billiard tables; due o the division of the
unit, the applicant wrouid be reducing the number of billiard tables to a maximum of 8
due to minimum number of required parking spaces required by Code. Further, the
applicanf is not requesting to serve beer and wine as part of the operation of the
bllllard hall
(17) The requested waiver pertains to minimum number of required parking spaces. Code
,' requires a minimum of 114 parking spacee for the combined uses proposed on-site. Plans

within an existing commercial retail center based upon the following findings submitted by
the applicant: '
"(i) That75% of the existing tenants in the commercial center are closed after 7-o'clock
in the evening while the proposed restaurant and billiard ftall's peak hours of
operation are expected to be in the evening hours between 7 o'clock through 10
o'clock in the evening:.'
(ii) That under current business operations for the commercial center, 50% of the
existing parking lot remains underutilized after 7 o'clock in the evening.
(iii) That the proposed business is to serve the neighboring multiple-family residential
properties and therefore expects a high level of pedestrian traffic instead of
vehicular traffic "

The Police Department had no calls for service to this address in the

The Reporting District to the north of this location is 1614 and has a
crime rate of 40 percent below average. The Reporting District to the

Reporting District to the west is 1713 with a crime rate of 30 percent
below average. The Reporting District to the east is 1715 with a crime
rate of 129 percent above average.
The Police Department strongly recommends denial due to the
extremely high crime rate. This high density neighborhood has been
plagued with gang problems. There are two long standing gangs with
members in this area, Folks and W 18"' St. There is an Elementary, Jr.
High and a High School in the very nearby vicinity. There is a problem
with drug sales in the area. The Police Department feels that the
addition of an ABC license at this Ideation would further add to the
problems in.this area, and the safety and welfare.of the clUzens of
Anaheim. if the request for Public Convenience or Necessity is granted,
the Police Department recommends the following conditions be placed
on the C.U.P.:

discuss these issues. The applicant indicated the phones would be relocated to comply.
with the condition of approval, and that repairs to the parking area were planned
subsequent to the completion of the refinance.

conditions of approval requiring that the parking area tie resurtaced'withih 90 days of this
approval; end that the perimeter ahd interior landscaping be enhanced(by the addition of
shrubs, ground cover, turt, or trees, and irrigation systems as necessary) within 180 days of

findings pertaihing toThe approval of the indoor swap meet and would not adversely affect
the adjoining land`u es or the growth and development of the area The request would not

SUBJECT: CUP 3400, Tracking Case No. CUP2006-05089
On May 2, 2006, I conducted an inspection of the property known as 1440 South Anaheim
Boulevard and observed that all conditions of Resolution No.R2000-1$8 are being met, except
for condition numbers 3 and 8. There are no current Anaheim Municipal Code violations on the

pertained to on-site landscaping, graffiti, debris within the parking area, and businesses operating
without appropriate permits (business licenses or carnival permits). Notices of Violation were
given to the business owner and the violations were resolved with no further action being taken.

Resolution No. 2000 R-188
To Whom it May Concern:
The above-referenced Conditional Use Permit affects the
property located at 1440 South Anaheim Boulevard, now commonly known
as the "Anaheim Indoor Marketplace," which property has been owned by
Lederer-Anaheim, Ltd., a family limited partnership, since 1973.
on Sune 4, 1991, the City Council adopted Resolution 91R-165,
permitting the current use, which was extended for ten years by
Resolution 2000 R-186, and we have always complied with all conditions
and requirements thereunder. We are in the process of refinancing the
property and are encountering difficulties because of the renewable
time limit put on the Conditional Use Permit, and accordingly wish to
have that time limitation eliminated. Part of the loan proceeds will
be used to enhance the appearance of the property, including repaint-
ing the building, repairing and improving the parking area, and
enhancing and replacing landscaping along the frontages on Anaheim
Boulevard and Cerritos Avenue.
Thank you for your considezation of this request.
very truly yours,

Impact Report No. 243 for the Pacificenter Specific Plan.
EVALUATION: '
{11) The applicant has indicated the proposed monument sign is Pequired in order to allow
additional`visibility to the four tenants located at the site. The applicamffurther indicates the
orientation of this building does not allow storefront visibilityand therefore a freestanding sign
is needed to assisfcustomers to easilyidentify the location cf the businesses. The applicant
further explains thafcther freestanding tenants (drive-through: restaurants) have monument
signs. Given the close proximately of the building!to the public right-of-way, and he high
visibility of the building, wall signage would provide the best: identification for the`site. 'An

monument signs on the property a request for an additional monument sign would add to
visual clutter of the site, Moreover, the' jntegrity bf the original sign standards contained in the

individual businesses that reside in the Pacificenter. The Communitybesign Element of the

and clearly visible from Tustin Avenue, a`highly visjble arterial within the City. The proposed `
amendment to allow an additional sign would not comply with this General Plan policy of
adherence to sign regulations; as the'additional sign would not be permitted in the sigmcode,
and would conflict with the issuebf placement and compatibility as mentioned. above. The
proposed modification to the sign regulations to allow an additional monument sign within the

use within Development Area 1; and
WHEREAS, on December 10, 1991, the City Council, by Ordinance Nos. 5277 (amending the
Zoning and Development Standards adopted under Ordinance Nos. 5045 and 5207) and 5278 (amending the

Site Plan in order to create a single, unified Development Area for the development of a mixed-use commercial
center within the Specific Plan, including the development of retail, office, hotel and other supporting uses; and
WHEREAS, the Anaheim Planning Commission did hold a public hearing at the Anaheim Civic
Center, Council Chambers, 200 South Anaheim Boulevard, in the City of Anaheim on May 31, 2006, at 2:30
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 and 18.72, to hear and consider evidence for and

is consistent with the goals, objectives and policies of the Anaheim General Plan, including the standards and
land use guidelines provided therein; and
2. That the proposed amendment pertaining to the deletion of the length of occupancy for the
existing hotel would result provide for consistency with Council Policy No. 550 pertaining to hotel occupancy; and

4. That the building is located in close proximately to the public right-of-way with high visibility and

monument signs throughout the City is not to identify every tenant within a commercial center.
5. That the requested modification to the specific plan for additional monument signage would not
be consistent with the goals and policies contained with the Community Design Element of the General Plan
because the additional sign would not be permitted by the sign code for the City, and would result in signage that

Project Name: Pacific Center
Proposed: One Double Face Monument Sign with 4 tenant names
1035 -1045 North Tustin Ave.
Anaheim, CA 92807
The development is located in Pacific Center (A Catellus Development),
which is bordered, by the 91 Freeway, North Tustin Ave. and La Palma Ave.
We are requesting a sign variance to allow one monument sign to help the
4 tenants in the Pacific Center development as they currently rely on the
traffic generated by Home Expo which is not enough considering the traffic
count on North Tustin Ave.
There is one entrance to the entire project on each street frontage (Tustin
Ave. & La Palma Ave). The entrance street is Pacific Center Drive that goes
through the development to both main streets.
Each entry way has 2 signs (one on each side of the entry /Exit Driveways)
identifying the Pacific Center name.
The two fast food restaurants each have one monument sign identifying
Carl's Jr. (on La Palma) and Taco Bell (on North Tustin Ave).
The newest and last parcel closest to Home Expo was developed 2 years
ago with this building housing four tenants that has the storefronts facing
inward to the devolvement. The rears of the stores are facing North Tustin
Ave. with the building (wall) sign rights only allocated to 3 tenants.
These 4 tenants, It's A Grind Coffee House, T-Mobile, Ergo Custom
Mattress, & Quizno's Sub are retail oriented businesses that rely mostly on
impulse customers. The orientation of this building does not allow
"storefront visibility" to the street as enjoyed by the businesses across the
street with storefront signs and monument signs that have a better impact
on drive by traffic.
The proposed 4 tenant ID monument sign is in keeping with the size, shape
& color of the existing Taco Bell monument sign located to the North of the
Pacific Center Drive entry driveway off North Tustin Ave.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ANALYSIS:!
(12) Staff has reviewed the proposal for a telecommunications facility and the Initial Study (a
copy of which is available for review in the. Planning Department) and finds no significant
environmentabmpactend,.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 agencyi and that it has considered the proposed
Negative Declaration together with any comments received during the public review
process and further. finding on the basis of thelnitial Studyand any comments received that
there is no substantial evidence that the project will have a significant effect on the
environment.
EVALUATION:
(13) Telecommunications facilitiesand antennas are permitted in the T Zone subject to the
approval of a conditional use permit and the requirements of Code Section No: 18.38.060
pertaining to telecommunications antennas of Chapter 18.38 (Supplemental'Uses).
(14) Three (3) telecommunications facilities were previously-approved for this property and two
(2) were constructed (see paragraph no. 4 above):. This proposal is for the co-location of
facilities on the easterhi lattice towet at a height substantially lower than either of the
existing facilities which are at a height of 65 feet. In an effort to reduce visual intrusion for
', the associated ground-mounted equipment, the applicant would be utilizing and expanding
the existing equipment shelter..:
(15) The recently updated Zoning Code includes design guidelines and requirements for
telecommunication facilities: Code requites wireless communication facilities to be co-
located where technologically feasible and visually beneficial. Staff feels "stealth"
installations and installation on existing SCE lattice towers are the best alternative to
decreasevisual clutter and preserve the aesthetidquality of the community. Due to the
topography, visibility from Canyon Rim Road is minimal and placement of the antennas on
the tower would not slghificantly contribute to the visual clutter of the towers. These
antennas would be painted to match the existing lattice tower, and therefore, would be less
visible and blend into the framework of the tower: Locating the facility on the existing SCE
transmission tower is the best alternative to decrease visual clutter and preserve the.
aesthetic quality of the community and therefore, staff recommends a royal of this.
request.:
FINDINGS:

City of Anaheim on May 31, 2006, at 2:30 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, to
hear and consider evidence for 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. Thafthe applicant's proposal to permit a telecommunications facility on an existing
transmission tower with accessory ground-mounted equipment is properly one for which a conditional use
permit is authorized by Anaheim Municipal Code Section Nos. 18.14.030.040.0402nnd 18.38.060;
2. That the proposed telecommunications facility would not adversely affect the adjoining land
uses and the growth and development of the area in which it is proposed to be Iccated because the proposal
locates the proposed antennas on an existing electrical transmission tower reducing the cumulative visual
clutter of such facilities by using existing infrastructure., and the transmission tower is located blaal~ [47?] feet
from Canyon Rim Road further minimizing the visual impact of the proposed facility.
3. That the size and shape of the site is adequate to allow full development of the proposal in a
manner not detrimental to the particular area nor to the health and safety because the telecommunications
facility would be located on an existing electrical transmission tower with" minimal new equipment.
4. That because this is an unmanned facility with infrequent maintenance, the traffic generated
by the proposed use will not, under the conditions imposed, impose an undue burden upon the streets and
highways designed and improved to carry the traffic in the area.
5. That granting this conditional use permit will not, under the conditions imposed, be
detrimental to the health and safety of the citizens of the City of Anaheim and that the use will contribute to
an effective wireless communications network system in a manner that would blend in with the existing
facilities..
6: That "" indicated their presence at said public hearing in opposition; and that no
correspondence was received in opposition to the subject petition.

Item No. 6
EVALUATION:
(14) The applicant is requesting a reclassification form the T zone to the RS-2'zone. This zone
claesificatioh implements the property's Generat Plan designation of Low Density Residential.
This designatidh permits up to 6.5 dwelling units pei- acre'and this proposal has a density of
4.6Bunits peracret therefore, the reclassificatiortand proposed subdivision are consistent with
the Geheral Plan: Ih .addition, the surrounding area is developed with'engle-family homes,
therefore the proposed residences would be ccmpatible with the existing residential lahd uses
in the vicinity.
(15) The waiver pertains to lot depth and orientation adjacent to a freeway. Code requires lots
`adjacent to the freeway to have a minimum lot depth of 150 feet as measured from the
freeway to provide a greater buffer to mitigate noise impacts from the freeway. Plans intlicate
that parcel i has a ibt depth of 91 to 125.feet and parcel 2 has a lot depth of zero to 91_62 feet:
The applicant has indicated ih the attached Justification for Variance thafthe lot Is irregularly
shaped and is reclaimed land that was not used foCthe freeway expansion. Although the
property atiuts the Santa Ana Freeway; there is an existing';t 5-foot high sound wall between
the proposed subdivision and the freeway which provides sound attenuation to the parcel ahd
'adjacent single-family homes to the north: In addition, the single-family residential lots to the
north which are regularly-shaped, have a lot depth;of 115 feefwhich is also less than what is
required by code. The current zoning of the parcel is the same as the parcels to the north.
With the requested reclassification, the zoning of these parcels would not be identical (the
northern properties are zoned T (Transition)) however this property and the two to the north
would both' allow single-family homes as`a primary use and under both zoning designations
would still be subject o the same code requirement pertaining'to lot depth and orientation
adjacent to'a freeways The closest property that Is'adjacent to;the freeway with the identical
zoning has: a lot depth of 79 tot 00 feet. Therefore,`the stricC application of the zoning code
would deprive this property of a privilege hat is enjoyed by parcels to the north and'south
which only. have lot depths of79 to 115 feet adjacent to the freeway further, there are special:
'circumstances pertaining to the irregular shape of the property hat IimiEthe ability to provide
the 150-foot lot depth: Based on these special circumstances; staff recommends approval of
this waiver.
(16) .Code requires that any residential development which includes two (2) or more parcels, and is
i located within six hundred (600) feet of any railroad; freeway, expressway, major arterial,
primary arterial or secondary'arterial, as designated by the Circulation Element of the General
Plan, needs to prepare a ndise study to determihe the projected ihterlor and exterior noise
levels within the development."The study heeds to be completed during the building plan
check stage and prior to issuance of building permits. The study needs. to include any
recommended design modifications that would be required to comply with applicable City
noise standards: For the exterior noise levels, staff has reviewed a noise study prepared far a
7esidential development in close proximity tc this site in order to determine the hoise impacts
from the existing railroad right-of-way at Santa Ana Street (which islocated 365 feet north of
the subject property) on this proposaC The studyindicates that the noise level foFthe train at a
dlstanoe of 30 feet was expected to be less than 55dB CNEL; therefore exterior Noise
mftigatioh for this site would not be required. Regarding the location of the property adjacent
to the freeway, the existing sound wall will mitigate the noise associated with the freeway.
Staff has included a condition'of approval requiring a final noise analysis: prior to the issuance
of the firstbuilding permit for the first dwelling uhit, to ensure compliance with noise
attenuation standards for the interior of the residences.

Anaheim Colony Historic District Southwest Quadrant
(17) The graphic above the shows the location of the property'relative to the Anaheim Colony
Historic District. Aithougfi this property is not located within the Historic District, staff'
recommends that the intent of the guidelines pertaining to new7esidential construction within
the District be incorporated into the design of the homes to blendin with the historic character
of the area as theburrent architecture of the proposed homes are contemporary in nature with:
flat7oofs; The proposed building materiafof stucco with wood doors does not provide
architectural articulation and does not match surrounding homes that have defined roof peaks;
wood siding,' bock siding and wood shutters`.' Neighborhood Preservation`staff has submitted
the attached memo indicating elements of tfie Preservation Plan thatshould be observed.
These guidelines include:
• Incorporating architecture compatibility in such elements as style, height, proportion, and'
materials of sorrounding'neighborhoods.
Relationship of the houses to each other in regards to open space and to the street.
o The functional and aesthetic design of open space.
o The distribution; layout and characteFof parking:
® Landscaping should use the prevailing landscape style and plant materials of the
neighborhood. ''
(18) Staff believes the proposed residential use is compatible and consistent with surrounding land
uses. The proposed parcels exceed the minimum lot size required in the RS-2 zone, and the
proposed setbacksmeet or exceed code requirements: However, staff recommends the
applicant incorporate the design guidelines from the Historic District to achieve homes that are
more arcfiitecturally compatiblewith the existing single family neighborhood. As a
recommended condition of approval, the applicant will be required to work with Neighborhood ''
Preservation staff to incorporate the guidelines Identified in paragraph (17)' above and submit
final detailed'elevation plans for Planning Commission review as a "Reports and
Recommendations" item prior to the issuance of building permits.

OFFICIAL RECORDS.
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did hold a public hearing at the Civic Center in the
City of Anaheim on May 31; 2006, 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

and determine the following facts:
1. That the applicant requests the following waiver to establish a 2-unit, 2-lot subdivision:
Section No. 18.04.060.010 Minimum lot depth and oriehtation adjacent to a freeway

91-125 feet and zero-91.62 feet. proposed)
2. That the above-mentioned waiver is hereby granted oh basis that there are special
circumstances applicable to the property because of the irregular triangular shape of the property which was
created by a freeway widening, which precludes the ability td provide the required lot depth.

shaped have a lot depth of 115 feet which does not comply with code and although those parcels do not
have the identical zoning as the proposed zoning for the parcel, they allow for similar residential land uses.
The closest property with the identical zoning to this parcel as proposed is to the south and also has a lot
depth less than that required by code. Therefore, strict application of the zoning code would deny this
property a right that is being enjoyed by other parcels that aye adjacent to the freeway in the immediate
vicinity with the same or similar zoning.
4. That the requested variance is necessary for the preservation and enjoymentof a substantial'
property right possessed by other property in the same vicinity and zone, and denied to the propertyin

Neighborhood Preservation
SUBJECT: Plans for construction of two new residences at 529 S. West St.
Thank you for forwarding to me the pazcel map and plans for the construction of two new
residences at 529 S. West St.
West Street is the western border of the Anaheim Colony Historic District; therefore,
guidelines for new constmction - as delineated in the Anaheim Colony Historic District
Preservation Plan -would apply to all properties on the east side of West Street. Also
applicable is the City of Anaheim Residential Design Guidelines. Because this site is
across the street from the Historic District and in close proximity to six historic stmctures
in the same block, these guidelines should be observed to maintain compatibility within
the neighborhood.
As for new construction, the Preservation Plan contains the following: "New houses
within the district must assert their identity in harmony with that of their street and
neighborhood."
"Site planning new construction in the context of infill projects requires special attention
to four primary issues:
1. The design of infill azchitecture should be compatible in such elements as style,
height, proportion, and materials of surrounding neighborhoods.
2. The relationship of houses to each other, to the surrounding open spaces, and to
the street.
3. The functional and aesthetic design of open space.
4. The distribution, layout, and chazacter of pazking."
A review of the pazcel map and plans reveals that the two houses do not meet these
criteria. The proposed new houses are incompatible in all elements and do not relate to
F:~UOGSVIOVSIIr41MFMONf.Nt6531A529~ WatDOC
the historic houses, all one story, across the street on the 500 block of S. West Street
(500, 506 -which is a Mills Act historic preservation house - 512, 520, 530, and 542.)
Recommendation: That the developer redesign the residences to be compatible with the
historic neighborhood in keeping with the Preservation Plan and Residential Design
Guidelines. Neighborhood Preservation staff are available to confer with the developer
in exploring a more harmonious development.
If you have any questions, I may be reached at extension 4351.
