(TRACKING NO. CUP 4089A),
AND AMENDING CERTAIN CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL OF
RESOLUTION NO. 99R -207
(710 EAST LA PALMA AVENUE)
WHEREAS, the Anaheim City Planning Commission did receive a verified Petition for
Reinstatement of Conditional Use Permit No. 4089, to modify or delete a condition of approval
pertaining to a time limitation to retain a previously approved building material contractor's storage
yard and outdoor storage of recreational vehicles, boats and trailers pursuant to Code Section No.
18.60.180 of the Anaheim Municipal Code for certain real property situated in the City of Anaheim,
County of Orange, State of California, shown on Exhibit "A attached hereto and incorporated
herein by this reference;
WHEREAS, on September 29, 1999, the Anaheim City Council adopted Resolution No.
99R -207 approving Conditional Use Permit No. 4089 for a period of ten years to permit a building
material contractor's storage yard and outdoor storage of recreational vehicles, boats and trailers; and
WHEREAS, this property is currently developed with a two -story industrial office

duly given as required by law and in accordance with the provisions of the Anaheim Municipal

does find and determine the following facts:

entitlement as set forth in this chapter exist.
2. The permit is being exercised substantially in the same manner and in conformance

1 PC2009 -085
4. With regard only to the deletion of a time limitation, such deletion is appropriate
because it has been demonstrated that the use has operated in a manner that is appropriate in the
underlying zone and the surrounding area, and the periodic review of the use is no longer necessary.
5. The existing use at the time of approval was properly one for which a conditional use
permit was authorized by the Zoning Code.
6. The use. as reinstated and amended, will not adversely affect the adjoining land uses
and the growth and development of the area in which it is located as the building material
contractor's storage yard and outdoor storage of recreational vehicles, boats and trailers has been
operating in conformance with all conditions of approval and there have been no code violations on
the property.
7. The size and shape of the site for the existing use is adequate to allow the full
development of the use, in a manner not detrimental to either the particular area or health and safety
as the building material contractor's storage yard and outdoor storage of recreational vehicles, boats
and trailers has been operating in conformance with all conditions of approval and there have been
no code violations on the property.
8. The traffic generated by the existing use will not impose an undue burden upon the
streets and highways designed and improved to carry the traffic in the area as the building material
contractor's storage yard and outdoor storage of recreational vehicles, boats and trailers has been
operating in conformance with all conditions of approval and there have been no code violations on
the property or complaints of traffic impacts.
9. The granting of the reinstatement 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.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Anaheim City Planning Commission has
reviewed the proposal and does hereby find that the previously approved Negative Declaration in
connection with Conditional Use Permit No. 4089 is adequate to serve as the required environmental
documentation in connection with this request.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Anaheim City Planning Commission, for the
reasons hereinabove stated does hereby approve the proposed reinstatement of Conditional Use
Permit No. 4089 to permit a building material contractor's storage yard and outdoor storage of

duration of the use. Amendments, modifications and revocations of this permit may be processed in
