The applicant has indicated the proposed tenant spaces wduid be limited to general retail
and take-out restaurants. Code requires a minimum of 26 parking spaces for this censer
based oh the ratio of 5.5 parking spaces per 1,000 square feefof gross floor area of
geheral retail space (5.5 x 4.8= 26). The proposed number of spaces would meet the
minimum Code'requfrement for general retail uses ahd take-out restaurants. Future
tenants such as fast food uses with greater than ten (10) seats would require additional
parking spaces. Ih such a case, the applicant would need td provide'additidnal spaces or
request a parkingvariance' The plan also indicates a double trash enclosure adjacent to
the north side of the building facing La Palma Avehue and a loading space adjacent to
'Imperial Highway.
(9) The floor plan (Exhibit No. 2) indicates that the proposed retail units would consist of three
(3) tenant. spaces but no specific interior improvements. are provided on the floor plan. The
- tenahfspaces would potentially range ihsize from 1;161 to 1,500 square feet, totaling
4,800 square feet. The tehant spaces have not beehdetermirted but wouldbe designated
for geherairetail'uses and take-out restaurants.'Storefront entrances would be located

Proposed North Elevation (Facing La Palma Avenuc);
(10) The elevation plans, color rendering and materials board (Exhibit Nos. 3, 4, and 5) ihdicate
a 29-foot high,..single-story:building containing stucco finish with ceramic file wainscoting
along the bottom three (3) feefof the building to complement the smooth stucco finish. A
multi-colored concrete file roof would be used on the: building'with an orange-brown wood
trim. The building would be a cream oolo~ with gray lightweight concrete columnsin the
middle unit: n addition, green ceramic file accentsare proposed throughout the center of
the building.'
(11) :The roof and sectiohplan (Exhibit No. 2) reflects the conceptuallocation and number of
roof-mounted units. The applicant has indicated there would be potentially up td four (4)
HVAC units. The roof is fully surrounded by a parapet wall and other architectural features
of the building. The roof section indicates the roof-mounted equipment would be
cdmpletely screehed from view from the right-of-waybn La Palma Avenue and Imperial
Highway. ,The roof section drawing further indicates the parapet would. be a minimum of

Item No. 3
6.5 feet high and the HVAC units a maximum of four (4) feet in height. According to this
information; the proposed roof-mounted equipment would be screened from every direction ,
in compliance with Code. [
(12) The landscape plans (Exhibit Nd: 6) indicate a varietyof canopy trees and shrubs
> surrounding the proposed commercial retai(buildingi The plan reflects an 11-foot wide
landscape planter along Imperial Highway and a 9 tb 15-footwide landscape planter along E
La PalmaAvenue;r Code requiresa 25-foot wide landscape setbackalong both frontages.
The landscaped areas adjacent to the streeEfrontages would cbnsisfof a 2-foot high berm
adjacent to a proposed 30-inch higkdecorative wall along La Palma Avenue and Imperial E
Highway: Plans'propose fifteen (15) trees(8 aldng Imperial Highway and T along La Palma
Avenue) as welt asshrubs and groundcover within the landscape setback;r Code requires
one (1) tree for every twenty (20) lineal feet of street frontage (7 treason Imperial Highway
and 8 tees on La Palma Avenue). The landscaped' planters within the parking ari3a' are
proposedwith trees, shrubsand groundcover. Code requires a minimum of one (1) tree
per 3,000 square feet of parking area and/orvehiculaCaccessways. Code further requires
no more than ten`(10}parking spaces adjacent to'each otfier without being separated by a
landscape area. The site plan indicates eleven (11) contiguousparking!spaces adjacent to
Imperial Highway..: Since the site exceeds the minimum number of parking spaces, the
conversion of the additional parking space into landscaping would not impact the minimum
parking requirements: Landscaping is not proposed adjacent to the building. With °;
exception of the requested landscape setback waiver along La Palma Avenue and Imperial
Highway, the landscape plans comply with Code.
(13) The site plan and elevation plans (Exhibit Nos. 1 and 3) indicate the conceptual location of
proposed wall and monument signage for the commercial center. Although the.: applicant
has indicated that specific tenants have not yet beedidentified; plans propose three (3) wall
signs proposed for the center affixed to the north elevation facing La Palma Avenue: Code
permits wall signs for advertising, provided the totalatea of any such sign shall not exceed
ten percent (10%) of the areabf the face of the building to which such sign is affizetl. The
Scenic Corridor Overlay permits a maximum of two'(2) wall signs for a unit provided that
the wall signs are located on parallel wallsbn opposite sides of the building. The Code
further provides that the letter height shall not exceed 24-inches fora 1 to 3-story building.
The conceptualwaltsigns. comply with code limitations. Plans also indicate a monument
sign located at the corner of Imperial Highway and La Palma Avenue, however, details of
the sign were not submitted; The monument sign would be located outside of the line-of-
sight triangle. Since'specific tenantsignage has~ot been identified at this time, staff is
Yecommending a condition of approval,'requiring the applicanfto submit a final detailed 4
signprogram for staff ~evtew once the specificsign design and tenant signage have been
determined for theYetail center,

EVALUATION:
(16) Commercial retail centers (twd'or more commercial tenanfspaces) and?oof-mounted
'equipmenfare permitted in the C-G (SC) Zone, subject to the approval of a conditional use
. permit. However, when roof-mountedequipmenYis proposed, Code requires that it be
dernbhstrated that tfte equipment is required tobe placed on the roof by the nature of the
particular use or by Title 15 (Buildings and'Housing) and that:
°Such roof-mounted equipment shall be subject to the following'provisions and shall be
clearly shown on plans submitted for review to the Cityof Anaheim; Submitted plans shall
include7ine-of-sighf drawings from surrounding properties,'demonstrating the effectiveness
of the proposed method of screening.
:Ol Screening of equipment shall be provided by acceptable, permanent building;
materials, the same as br similar fo those which are used in the construotidn of the
underlying building, or equipmenf shall be screened from view by acceptable.
architectural features'of the building itself. Said screening shall not`exceed the height
limit and shall not consist of wood lattice work.
.02 Permanent, mature landscaping may also be utilized, butbnly if it provides a
complete and sufficient, year-round screening:!:.
:03 Equipment shall not be visible from any public street, public or private property at
finished grade level, or any floor level of any rasidentiafstructure. `
.04 In order fo minimize the visibility of screening methods and materials, all equipment
shall be painted to match the roof on which if is located; as well as painted to match
any materials used for equipment screening.
:05 The method and/or screening material used shall not be readily recognizable as a
screening device but shall be integrated into the design of fhe building as a part
thereof.
.06 All equipment screening shall be retained and maintained in good condition." (AMC
18.18.090.020.0201.)"
Based on the size of he building and the proposed uses, the site cannot accommodate the
equipment on the ground. Tfie four (4) roof-mounted units proposed would not be visible
from La Palma Avenue and Imperial Highway or the surrounding private property to the
eastand south of the commercial center i The parapet screening is incorporated into the
architecture of the building and would comply with all the requirements of the Code
pertaining to the establishment of roof-mounted:equipment within the Scenic Corridor as
indicated above: Because the equipment would not be visible from any public street, public
orprivate property at finished grade level, or any Floor level of any residential structure, and

would comply with Code, staff recommends approval of the request for roof-mounted
equipment.
(17) Waiver (a) pertains to the minimum landscaped setback adjacent to an arterial highway.
Code requires a 25-foot wide landscaped: setback along arterial highways and plans
indicate a setback ranging from9 to 16 feetadjacent to La Palma Avenueand 1_1 to 19.5
feet adjacent to Imperial Highway. to acdommodate parking;. The following. is an aerial of ,
the site: In Fail 2006, this portion of La Palma Avenue will be widened by the City; as a
result, properties adjacent to this site along La Palma Avenue will lose portions of their
existing Jandscaped setback to accommodate the widening: As a result of the proposed
widening; the property to the: east of the commercial center (Best Western Anaheim Hills '-
Motel)and the adjacent Keno's restaurant would have a reduced landscaped setback of
,less than five (5) feet: n addition, Imperial Highway will be widened. The motel to the
south of the property fias already dedicated property for the widening, and would continue
to have a reduced andscaped setback of 15 feet.:. Staff feels that the minimum landscaped.
waiver can tie justifiedby the constrained size of the property and the fact thaFthere are
similar circumstances of reduced landscaped setbacksalohg Imperial Higttwayahd La
Palma Avenue due to the street widening: Therefore, staff recommends aooroval bf the 3
waiver.

(18) Staff is concemed with the lack of screening provided for the trash enclosure and utility
devices proposed in front of the building:; If noYscreenedproperly, thisservice area would
tie visible to bath streets and atl the patrons visiting the site. A condition of approval has
been included for tfte addition of clingingbines ortallshrubbery to screen the trash
enciosure'and utility devices from the adjacent streets. In addition, although the parking lot
landscaping meets the minimum :requirements of the Code, staff is concerned with the lack: j.
of landscaping adjacent td theproposed building. Ih order to accent the west elevation,
staff recommends reducing the width of the building by two (2) feet to provide a landscaped
planteralong tfie west elevation: Due to the limited width of the lahdscape setback
provided along to Palma Avenue and Imperial Highway, staff recommends layered ~
landscaping rather than a landscaped berm witFi a decorative wallas proposed along the

(21) Staff is concerned that the proposed loading area would not be functional. Although the
applicant has included a loading area adjacent to Imperial Highway, staff feels that the
proposed location may be underutilized by,tenant spaces on the opposite side of the
property, approximately fifty (50) feet away from the nearest tenant entrance. Staff
believes that delivery vehicles would likelyutilize theproposed:customer parking area
;(specifically the drive aisle) and would interfere with on-site vehicular parking and
'circulation during deliveries and therefore, staff recommends the relocation of the loading
area to the front of the building.
A
(22) Staff is supportive of this request to construct a new commercial retail center. The
proposed retail and take-out uses would be compatible with adjacent land'uses in the area
ahd contribute to the services provided for the neighborhood. However, staff is cohcerned
with the submitted elevations and feels that they do not architecturally enhance the
surrounding neighborhood. This`is a very prominenYcorner of the City and is highly visible
to vehicular traffic; therefore, it is extremely. important for the building to be'well articulated
in a manner that is consistent with the Community Design Element of the General Plan. In
addition, the landscaping proposed and loading area needs to be revised to address the
'concerns outlined earlier in this'staff report: Therefore, staff recommends continuance of
the projecffor the applicant to redesign the elevations, to relocate the loatling area to the
front of the: building,,incorporate landscaped screening next to the trash enclosure and
utility devices and a planter adjacent to the west elevation of the building..: 3

Staff Report to the I~
Planning Commission
July 24, 2006
Item No. S
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ANALYSIS:
(12) Staff has reviewed the proposal to establish a church, and the Initial Study (a copy,of which
is available for review in the Planning Department) and finds no significant environmental ,
impact and; herefore, recommends that a Negative Declaration tie 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 Negativepeclaration
together with`any comments received during;he publicreview 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.
EVALUATION:
(13) Churches are permitted in the SP94-1 (Northeast Area Specific Plan) Zone subject to the
approval of a conditional use permit with the; provision that the hours and :days of operation
are specified in the conditional use permit. The Code further specifies where the church is
not the exclusive use of the property; the activities prior to 6:00 PM during the week shall be
limited.to church office staff. The proposed. flours of operation comply with code limitations.
(14) The waiver pertains to the minimum number of parking. spaces. Code requires a minimum
of 203 parking spaces for the industrial complex including the proposed church use: Plans
'indicate 154 parking spaces provided. A parking study. dated July 11, 2006,: was conducted
• by he City's`,independentporking and traffic'consultant which determined that theproposed
parking and eirculatiortwould be'atlequate and would not negatively impact his projector ~'
surroundingproperties.' Based upon the Traffic consultant's analysis and7ecommendation,
staff recommends approval of this waiver based on the following findings:
"(a) ? That the waiver, under the condftions imposed, if any, will not cause fewer off-Street
parking spacesYo be provided for such use than the number of such spaces -,
necessary to accommodate`all vehicles attributable to such use under the normal and
reasonable foreseeable conditions of operation of such use.
Sufficient parking spaces will be available immediately surrounding the building for the _ __
churchUses botfton Sunday, weekdays, and weeknights; the gym, and the vehicular
storage, and there will not e a situation that fewer off-street parking spaces are s
available for this use.
(b) That the waiver, under the conditions imposed; if any, will not increase the demand °i
and competition for parking spaces upon the public streets in the immediate vicinity of
the proposed use:
There is no curbside parking along the property frontage on East La Palma Avenue.
The use of Suite B as a church will not result. in an increased demand forparking
spaces along any. of the nearby public streets. ;
(c)'- That the waiver, under the conditions imposed, if any, will not increase the demand for 1
parking spaces. upon adjacent private property in the immediate vicinity of the
proposed use.
Page 4 1
_ Staff Report to the
Planning Commission
July 24, 2006
Item No. 5
Sufficient parking will be provided for the anticipated needs of the church, the gym,
and the vehicular storage within the parking immediately surrounding the building. No
overFlow onto adjacent private property tsanticipated.
(d} That the waiver, under the conditions imposed; will not increase traffic congestion
within fhe off-street parking areas or lots provided for such use.
The church use will nofincrease traffic congestion within the off-street parking areas,
Tfte site is Ideated withinan existing industrial park that affords excellent site
circulationsround all of the buildings in multiple drive aisles. No congestion is
anticipated due to the church use.
(e} That fhe waiver, under the conditions'imposed, will not impede vehicular ingress to or
egress from adjacent properties upon the public streets in the immediate vicinity of the
proposed use.
The proposed Church is located within a building that is setback approximately 400
feet from the public street:'There are two full access driveways thatare available to
this site, The vehicles thatsre coming. to or leaving from the churchare not
anticipated to impede vehicular ingress or egress from the adjacent properties ih this
vicinity; The existing site circulation and access points are suffdent to accommodate
this'use.
(15) The property is located in an area that allows a variety of industrial and industrially-related
uses, ranging from light industrial businesses to research and development offices.
Furthermore, a conditional use permit (CUP No. 2728) was approved for industrially-related
offices and therefore, staff believes a church would be compatible with the existing land
uses in the multi-tenant light industrial office park. The potential for operational conflicts
would be minimal due to the types of uses located to the north and south, and because
church services would'occur on 8undays.; The 2-story building to the north is an electronic
publishing and prepress facilitysales office while the'1=story building to the south is a public
utility telepftone service office building: Neither of tfiese businesses have outdoor uses
associated with their business operation; nor do they operate in the evenings or on
weekends.' Because this particular property is notatljacent to heavy manufacturing,~the
likelihood of conflict with adjacent land aces is unlikely, and therefore, would not adversely
affect the adjoining land uses or growth and development of the surroundingproperties;
therefore, staff recommends acproval of the project; as conditioned idtne attached draft
resolution:.
FINDINGS:
(16} Section 18.42.110 of the parking code sets forth the following findings which are required to
be made before a parking waiver is approved by the Planning Commission:
(a) That the waiver, under the conditions imposed, if any, will not cause fewer off-street
parking spaces to beprovided forsuch use than the number of such spaces
necessary to accommodate all vehicles attributable to such use under the normal and
reasonable foreseeable conditions of operation of such use.

RECORDS OF ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA.
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did hold a public hearing at the Civic Center in the
City of Anaheim on July 24, 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 conriection therewith; and
WHEREAS, Bald 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:
L That the proposed church is properly one for which a conditiohal use permit is authorized by
Anaheim Municipal Code Section No, 18.120.070.050:0511 with the following waiver.
SECTION NO. 18.42.040.010 Minimum number of oarkino spaces
203 required; 154 existing)
2. That the parking waiver is hereby approved based upon the parking analysis prepared by
the City's Independent Traffic Engineer providing evidence that adequate parking exists on the property for
the combination of uses on the site;
3. That the parking waiver, under the conditions imposed, will not cause fewer off-street
parking spaces to be provided for such use than the number of spaces necessary to accommodate all
vehicles attributable to such use under the normal and reasonable foreseeable conditions of operation of
such use; because sufficient parking spaces will be available immediately surrounding the building for the
church uses both on Sunday, weekdays, and weeknights, the gym, and the vehicular storage, and there will
not fewer off-street parking spaces available for the uses than provided on-site;
4: That the parking wavier, under the conditions imposed, will not increase traffic congestion or
demand and competition for parking spaces upon the public street in the immediate vicinity of the use
because there is no existing on-street parking available along the frontage of East La Palma Avenue. All
parking for this site will be accommodated within the off-street parking lot;
5. That the parking waiver, under the conditions imposed, will not Increase the demand and
competition for parking spaces upon adjacent private property in the immediate vicinity of the proposed use
as all parking spaces will be provided immediately surrounding the building. As indicated by the study, no
demand for parking on adjacent private property is anticipated;
6. That the parking waiver, under the conditions imposed, will not impede vehicular ingress or
egress from adjacent properties upon the public streets in the immediate vicinity of the proposed use.
Cr\PC2006-0 -1- PC2006-
Furthermore, it has been determined by the parking study that adequate on-site parking spaces are !~
provided;
7. That the 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 as the parking study has demonstrated that the site can
accommodate the combined uses on-site and the existing land uses in the area are light industrial to office
uses;
8. That the size and shape of the site for the proposed use is adequate to allow the full
development of the proposed use as conditioned, in a manner not detrimental to the particular area nor to
the health and safety.
9. That the traffic generated by the proposed use will not impose and undue burden upon the
streets and highways designed and improved to carry the traffic in the area based on the findings of the
parking study that indicate that adequate parking would be provided on-site and the area is already
developed with office type uses in the vicinity.
10. 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 because the proposed use is
compatible with existing land uses in the area, and will primarily be operating when other.businesses are
closed.
11. That *'* indicated their presence at said public hearing in opposition; and that no
correspondence was received in opposition to the subject petition.
CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT FINDING: That the Anaheim Planning

CANYON CIIRISTIAN CENTER
PARHING STUDY
Y. Introducfion
The project applicant, New Life Sound Mind, Inc, proposes to operate a church, The
Canyon Christian Center, in one suite of an existing industrial building in an industrial
park. They wish to relocate from a temporary space located in a hotel in Fullerton.
II. Project Location
The site is located at 5464 East La Palma in Anaheim, Suite B. The access is located
approximately half a mile west of the intersection of La Pahna Avenue and Imperial
Highway. La Pahna Avenue is a six lane major arterial. The site is 0.7 mile from the
State Route (SR-91) Riverside freeway at Imperial Highway.
III. Site Description
IILA. Existing Site
The proposed site is an industrial building with four suites. Suite A is leased as a
warehouse for automobiles. The Canyon Christian Center proposes to occupy Suite B in
this building. Suites C and D of the building aze currently leased to the Bogifit Gym,
which has not yet opened.
Tlrere aze three buildings within this industrial park. The building directly behind the
project site is addressed as 5468 and 5472 E. La Palma Avenue. The building in front is
5460 E. La Palma Avenue. The site is governed by shazed pazking and shazed access
agreements.
III.B. Proposed Site
The church will occupy Suite B, which has a total of 12,287 squaze feet. No new
structures or physical changes to the layout of the pazking area aze contemplated. The
pazking immediately surrounding 5464 E. La Palma Avenue consists of 42 parking
spaces on the south side, 72 parking spaces on the east side and 24 spaces along the north
side, and 16 spaces on the west side, for a total of 154 spaces. The industrial pazk has
shazed pazking among the various uses onsite.

Canyon Christian Center Pazking Study Rafiq & Associates, Inc.
l
III.C. Characteristics
The three buildings share drive aisles and a common, full access to La Pahna at the
northwest comer of the site. Along this main entry drive aisle, there are additional access
points to an adjacent industrial site to the west, which contains the Custom Comfort.
mattress factory and showroom. Within the parking lot in front of 5460 E. La Palma, at
the northeast corner of the site is an opening to a shazed drive aisle with the adjacent
property to the east, 5500 E. La Palma Avenue, which has a full access onto La Palma
Avenue. The pazking lot and landscaping around the 5464 E. La Palma building are
existing, and in need of resurfacing/re-striping/renovation. One parking stall south of the
building has broken pavement due to tree roots.
N. Site Uses
The proposed uses in this building aze a wazehouse for automobiles, a youth fitness gym,
and a church.
IV.A. Other site Amenities
A bicycle rack is situated near the entrance to Suite C/D. There aze two roll-up doors
along the south side of the building, that aze used for storage of vehicles in Suite A.
There aze several pay telephones in front of the building south of the project site (5468
and 5472 La Palma). There is no pedestrian walkway from the public sidewalk along La
Palma Avenue into the site, to any of the three buildings.
V. Parking Requirements
Section 18.52 of the City of Anaheim Municipal Code specifies pazking rates for the
church assembly azeas, office, and storage. The azea of the bathrooms/hallways and
stairwell aze not counted. The lobby will be counted at the office rate, Because the
seating in the assembly area is not fixed, the rate of 29 spaces per thousand squaze feet is
used instead of the parking rate per fixed seat.

The pazking requirement of the automobile wazehouse in Suite A is 1.55 spaces/1,000
squaze foot. The Municipal code does not specify a pazking rate for a youth gym,
consequently, the pazking requirement for this use was determined by a previous pazking
study conducted for the Bogifit Gym in Suites C and D, dated October 17, 2005 by our
fum. The resultant pazking rate applied to the youth gym was based upon pazking counts.
taken at two similaz sites. The pazking rate of 1.5 spaces/1,000 square foot was applied,
and then a 15% buffer was added to achieve a pazking requirement of 37 spaces. If the
church used both assembly azeas concurrently, it would exceed the immediate pazking
supply of 154 spaces, by 49 parking spaces, and vehicles belonging to the Sunday
morning congregation would overflow onto the adjoining pazking azeas within the
industrial pazk.
VI. Methodology of Study
Because the site considers all the pazking to be shazed among the various buildings, an
arrangement could be worked out, in the event that the church used both assembly azeas
concusently. The church maintains that they do not conduct simultaneous services or
meetings in the assembly azeas, and they wish to demonstrate that they have a pazking
demand lowet than the code.
VI.a. Nonconcurrent usage of the assembly areas
The next table summarizes the code-required pazking on Sunday morning, assuming only
the first floor assembly azea to be used, and assuming the two neighboring uses to be
operating.

The parking requirement for the site, assuming non-concurrent usage of the church
assembly areas would be 136 spaces, which can be accommodated azound the building.
VLb. Reduced Parking Demand Using ITE rate per GFA..
In order to substantiate a reduced parking demand, parking counts aze generally taken at
the existing site of a church that is relocating. The congregation currently meets in a
hotel in Fullerton. A pazking count' would be somewhat difficult to take because the
pazking azea for the church is not isolated from the pazking azea for the hotel. For this
evaluation, the Institute of Transportation Engineers' (ITE) 3'~ edition Pazking
Generation has been used to estimate the pazking demand of the church.
Under Land Use Code 560, Church, the ITE gives the .average peak period pazking
demand of 7.81 spaces per 1,000 gross floor area (GFA). If this were applied to the
12,287 squaze foot suites B, the resulting demand would be 96 parking spaces. This is
considerab]y less than the code-requirement of 153 spaces. If the church used this
parking demand, and the gym and vehicle storage pazking demand were 50, the pazking
demand of the building would be 146. This could be accommodated with the 154 spaces
immediately adjacent the building. There would be a surplus of eight pazking spaces.

VLc. Reduced Parking Demand using ITE rate per attendee
The ITE also specifies an .average peak period parking demand of 0.44 vehicles per
attendee. The church has provided us with the number of attendees (75) at a typical
Sunday morning service. Applying this rate of 0.44 results in a pazking demand of 33
spaces. This is considerably lower than the code requirement of 153. The code. is
extremely conservative, in that it considers that there will be concurrent usage of the
upstairs assembly room, and that the storage azeas, lobby and offices to be staffed, when
generally, on Sunday mornings, those employees would not be on duty.

Using the reduced pazking demand based on ITE rate per attendee results in a pazking
requirement of 33 for the church. When added to the 50 for the vehicle storage and gym,
the building's reduced pazking demand would be 83. This could easily be accommodated
within the 154 spaces provided immediately azound the building.
VLd. Weeknight Parking Demand
On Wednesday evenings, the church conducts a teaching class with approximately 25
members present. If everyone drives himself or herself, and if the office and maintenance
staff employed by the church aze not on duty, the church-would require 25 pazking
spaces...
If the City's code is applied, assuming that the first floor assembly area is not
concurrently used, the required number of spaces for the church would be 91.
Considering. the 50 pazking spaces needed for the gym and vehicle storage, the total
building parking requirement would be 141, which can be accommodated in the 154
pazking spaces immediately surrounding the building.

VI.e. Weekday Parking Demand
During the day, on weekdays, the church has five office staff on duty in the two offices.
The parking demand is estimated to be five.
VII. Findings
The supply of pazking around this building is adequate to serve the church, the youth gym
and the vehicle storage uses based upon ITE parking generation rates for the church
rather than the City's more conservative code requirements.
Finding Number .0101' That the variance; under the conditions imposed, if any, will
not cause fewer off-street parking spaces to be provided for the proposed use than the
number of such spaces necessary to accommodate all vehicles attributable to such use
under the normal and reasonably foreseeable conditions of operation of such use.
Sufficient parking spaces will be available immediately surround the building for
the church uses both on Sunday, weekdays, and weeknights, the gym, and the
vehicular storage, and there will not be a situation that fewer off-street parking
spaces are available for this use.
Finding Number .0102 That .the variance, under the conditions imposed, if any, will
not increase the demand and competition for parking spaces upon the public streets in
the immediate vicinity of the proposed use.
6
Canyon Christian Center Pazking Study
Rafiq & Associates, Inc.
There is no curbside parking along the property frontage on E. La Palma Avenue.
The use of Suite B as a church will not result in an increased demand for parking
spaces along any of the nearby public streets. All parking will be provided onsite
within the industrial complex.
Finding Number .0103 That the variance; under the conditions imposed, if any, will
not increase the demand and competition for parking spaces upon adjacent private
property in the immediate vicinity of the proposed use (which property is rTOt expressly
provided as parking for such use under an agreement in compliance with subsection
18.42.050.030 (Non-Residential Uses-Exception).
Sufficient parking will be provided for the anticipated needs of the church, the gym
and the vehicular storage withiu the parking immediately surrounding the building.
Na overflow onto adjacent private property is anticipated.
Finding Number .0104 That the variance, under the conditions imposed, if any; will
not increase traffic congestion within the off-street parking areas or lots provided for the'
proposed use.
The church use will not increase traffic congestion within the off-sfreet parking.
areas. The site is located within an existing industrial park that affords' excellent
site circulation around all of the buildings in multiple drive aisles. No congestion is
anticipated due to the church use.
Finding Number .0105 That the variance, under the conditions imposed, if any, will
not impede vehicular ingress to or egress from adjacent properties upon the public
streets in the immediate vicinity of the proposed use.
The proposed church is located within a building that is set back approximately 400
feet from the public street. There are two full access driveways that are available to
this site. The vehicles that are coming to or leaving from the church' are not
anticipated to impede vehicular ingress or egress from the adjacent properties in
this vicinity. The existing site circulation and access points are sufficient to
accommodate this use.
VIII. Recommendations and Conclusions
Al] of the findings for a variance to the City of Anaheim Municipal Code for parking
have been met.
