-1-
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 18.68.040 of the Anaheim Municipal Code the
City Council is the approval authority for general plan amendments; and
WHEREAS, prior to adopting or amending a general plan, the City Council is
required to hold at least one public hearing, notice of such public hearing to be provided as
required by state law; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to subsection 18.60.150.020 of the Anaheim Municipal
Code, when multiple discretionary land use applications are submitted for concurrent Planning
Commission review and approval, and one or more of such applications requires City Council
review and approval, all such applications shall be subject to full review and approval by the
City Council as the granting authority; and
WHEREAS, upon receipt of said Resolution No. PC2010 -039, summary of
evidence, report of findings and recommendations of the Planning Commission, the City Council
did fix the 20th day of July, 2010, as the time, and the City Council Chamber in the Civic Center
as the place for a public hearing on proposed Conditional Use Permit No. 2010 -05484 and did
give notice thereof in the manner and as provided by law; and
WHEREAS, at the time and place fixed for said public hearing, the City Council
did hold and conduct such public hearing and did give all persons interested therein an
opportunity to be heard, and did receive evidence and reports, and did consider the same; and
WHEREAS, the City Council does find, after careful consideration of all
evidence and reports submitted to the Planning Commission and the action taken by said
Commission, and all evidence and reports offered at said public hearing before the City Council,
that all of the conditions and criteria set forth in the Anaheim Municipal Code are present for the
following reasons:
1. The proposed residential project is properly one for which a conditional use
permit is authorized under Code Section 18.06.160.
2. The proposed residential project will not adversely affect the adjoining land uses,
or the growth and development of the area in which it is proposed to be located. The proposed
use and density will not have an adverse affect on the surrounding industrial and residential land
uses.
3. The size and shape of the site proposed for the residential project is adequate to
allow the full development of the proposed use in a manner not detrimental to either the
particular area or health and safety because there will be adequate parking, recreational areas,
privacy, and landscaping to accommodate the proposed density.
4. The traffic generated by the proposed residential project use will not impose an
undue burden upon the streets and highways designed and improved to carry the traffic in the
area because the project has been designed to accommodate the required on and off site parking,
vehicular circulation, and trash collection.
-2-
5. The applicant applied for a density bonus application requesting a parking
incentive pursuant to State Law. A total of 64 on -site parking spaces and 15 off -site parking
spaces along the new public streets, for a total of 79 spaces, are proposed within the subdivision.
State Law requires parking incentives to be granted for projects that provide a minimum of ten
percent of the project as affordable units. Four units within the development (10 percent of this
project) would be affordable for families of low income; therefore, the project would qualify for
the parking reduction permitted by State Law. A minimum of 64 spaces are required for this
project under State Law in compliance with Code. Since 64 on -site and 15 off -site spaces are
provided, for a total of 79 spaces, the project provides adequate parking under state law.
6. As authorized under Code Section 18.06.160, the applicant requests a
modification to RM -4 zone development standards pertaining to maximum lot coverage,
minimum front and interior setbacks, and building to building setbacks. These modifications can
be justified since the amount of recreational space exceeds Code requirements (7,200 s.f.
required; 9,966 s.f. proposed), the buildings are well articulated, and the facades are embellished
with attractive facade treatments such as decorative front porches.
WHEREAS, the City Council has reviewed the proposal and does hereby find that
the Negative Declaration is adequate to serve as the required environmental documentation in
connection with this request upon finding that the declaration reflects the independent judgment
of the lead agency and that it 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.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Anaheim City Council does
hereby grant Conditional Use Permit No. 2010 -05484 subject to the conditions of approval
described in Exhibit `B" attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference which are
hereby found to be a necessary prerequisite to the proposed use of the subject property in order
to preserve the safety and general welfare of the Citizens of the City of Anaheim.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Anaheim City Planning Commission
does hereby find and detennine that adoption of this Resolution is expressly predicated upon
applicant's compliance with each and all of the conditions hereinabove set forth. Should any
such condition, or any part thereof, be declared invalid or unenforceable by the final judgment of
any court of competent jurisdiction, then this Resolution, and any approvals herein contained,
shall be deemed null and void.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that timing for compliance with conditions of
approval may be amended by the Planning Director upon a showing of good cause provided (i)
equivalent timing is established that satisfies the original intent and purpose of the condition(s),
(ii) the modification complies with the Anaheim Municipal Code and (iii) the applicant has
demonstrated significant progress toward establishment of the use or approved development.
-3-
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that Conditional Use Permit No. 2010 -05484 is
hereby approved subject to the approval by the City Council of General Plan Amendment No.
2010 - 00479, Reclassification No. 2010 - 00237, and Tract Map No. 17350, now pending.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that approval of this application constitutes
approval of the proposed request only to the extent that it complies with the Anaheim Municipal
Zoning Code and any other applicable City, State and Federal regulations. Approval does not
include any action or findings as to compliance or approval of the request regarding any other
applicable ordinance, regulation or requirement.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the applicant is responsible for paying all
charges related to the processing of this discretionary case application within 15 days of the
issuance of the final invoice. Failure to pay all charges shall result in the revocation of the
approval of this application.
