CEQA STATUS: Negative Declaration
HEARING DATE: January 18,1996
OPPOSITION: No one indicated their presence at the public hearing in opposition and no
correspondence in opposition was received.
REQUEST: Petitioner requests waiver of the following to establish a retail golf store:
Sections 18.06.050.0212 - Minimum number of parkingspaces
18.06.050.022 59 required; 26 proposed and concurred with by
18.06.050.031 the City Traffic and Transportation Manager)
18.06.080
and 18.110.100.110.1103
Having been appointed Zoning Administrator by the Planning Director, pursuant to Anaheim Municipal Code
Section 18.12.040, to decide the above-referenced petition and a public hearing having been duly noticed
for and held on the date set forth above, 1 do hereby find:
1. That, although the parking waiver appears to be significant, a retail golf store is not a typical retail
business because a maximum of 20 customers in a store of this size at any one time is unlikely; and
that 20 or more customers would be in the-store-only during promotional-sales-which would probably
take place only on weekends, as testified to by the petitioner who operates three similar stores
elsewhere in Orange County;
2. That the granting of the parking waiver for this specific use (a retail golf store) will not cause an
increase in traffic congestion in the immediate vicinity nor adversely affect any adjoining land uses;
3. That the granting of the parking waiver, under the conditions imposed, will not be detrimental to the
peace, health, safety or general welfare of the citizens of the City of Anaheim; and
4. That the subject property is located in Development Area 5 "Commercial Area" of the Northeast
Industrial Area Specific Plan (SP 94-1).
CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL (QUALITY ACT FINDINGS:
That the Zoning Administrator has reviewed the proposal for waiver of minimum number of parking spaces
to establish a retail golf store on arectangularly-shaped parcel of land consisting of approximately 1.47
acres located at the northwest corner of La Mesa Avenue and Kraemer Place, having approximate frontages
za V4285.wp - 1 of 3 - ZA 96-02
of 237 feet on the north side of L.a Mesa Avenue and 153 feet on the west side of Kraemer Place, and further
described as 3035 L-a Mesa Avenue; and does hereby approve the NegaYnre Declaration upon finding that
she has considered the Negative Declaration together with any comments received during the 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.
Based on the evidence and testimony presented to me, I do hereby determine to approve Variance
No. 4285, subject to the following conditions:
1. That the granting of the parking waiver is contingent upon operation of the use (a retail golf store)
in conformance with the assumptions relating to the operation and intensity of use as contained in
the parking demand study that formed the basis for approval of subject variance. Exceeding,
violating, intensifying or otherwise deviating from any said assumptions, as contained in the parking
demand study, shall be deemed a violation of the expressed conditions imposed upon subject
variance which shall subject said variance to termination or modification pursuant to the provisions
of Sections 18.03.091-and 18.03.092 of the Anaheim Municipal Code.
2. That the. on-site landscaping and irrigation system shall be maintained in compliance with City
standards.
3. That trash storage areas shall be provided and maintained in a location acceptable to the Department
of Maintenance and in accordance with approved plans on file with said Department. Such
information shall be specifically shown on any plans submitted for building permits.

comply with approved plans on file with said Department.

the Department of Maintenance. Said turn-around area shall be specifically shown on any plans
submitted for building permits.
7. That the legal property owner shall irrevocably offer to delicate a corner cutoff for the access ramp
at the corner of Kraemer Place and La Mesa Avenue, in accordance with Engineering Standard No.
124.
8. That an unsubordinated reciprocal access and parking agreement, in a form satisfactory to the City
Attorney, shall be recorded with the Office of the Orange County Recorder. A copy of the recorded
agreement shall be submitted to the Zoning Division.
9. That the owner of subject property shall submit a letter requesting termination of Conditional Use
Permit Nos. 1442 (to establish a planned unified industrial service center including a motel, restaurant
and retail service shops), 1520 (to permit a private tennis facility), 1588 (to permit the sale of beer and
wine in a tennis facility) and 2252 (to retain a retail carpet sales facility in an industrial zone).
