A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF ANAHEIM APPROVING A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT TO
PERMIT AN ADULT DAY CARE FACILITY AND MAKING
CERTAIN FINDINGS IN CONNECTION THEREWITH
(DEV2024-00073)
(2775 WEST LINCOLN AVENUE)
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Anaheim (the "Planning
Commission") did receive a verified petition to approve a conditional use permit for a Day Care
Center for adults (the "Proposed Project") on certain real property located at 2775 West Lincoln
Avenue in the City of Anaheim, County of Orange, State of California, as generally depicted on
Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference (the "Property"); and
WHEREAS, the Property is approximately 1.2-acres in area and developed with a
commercial retail center. The property is designated for Residential -Corridor uses in the General
Plan. The Property is in the "C-G" General Commercial Zone, and is subject to the zoning and
development standards contained in Chapter 18.08 (Commercial Zones) of the Anaheim Municipal
Code (the "Code"); and
WHEREAS, Day Care Center uses require a conditional use permit subject to the
approval by the Planning Commission pursuant to Subsection .040 of Section 18.08.030 (Uses);
and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did hold a public hearing at the Civic Center in
the City of Anaheim on June 30, 2025, at 5:00 p.m., with notice of said public hearing having been
duly given as required by law and in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 18.60 (Procedures)
of the Code, to hear and consider evidence for and against the Proposed Project and to investigate
and make findings and recommendation in connection therewith; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of the California
Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq.; herein referred to as
"CEQA'), the State of California Guidelines for Implementation of the California Environmental
Quality Act (Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations; herein referred to as the "CEQA
Guidelines"), the City is the "lead agency" for the preparation and consideration of environmental
documents for the Proposed Project; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission finds that the effects of the Proposed Project are
Categorically Exempt from the requirements to prepare additional environmental documentation
per CEQA Guidelines, Section 15301— Existing Facilities. The Proposed Project is a request to
permit a Day Care Center for adults within an existing commercial building, and operation would
be consistent with historic levels of operation on the subject property. Pursuant to Section 15300.2
(c) and 15301 of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations no exceptions to the exemption
apply, there are no unusual circumstances in respect to the Proposed Project that would cause a
significant effect on the environment and, therefore, the Proposed Project would be categorically
exempt from the provisions of CEQA; and
WHEREAS, the Planning 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 with respect to the request for a conditional use permit, does find and determine the
following facts:
1. The Proposed Project is properly one for which a conditional use permit is
authorized as an allowable use within the General Commercial Zone under subsection .040 of
Section 18.08.030 (Uses) of Chapter 18.08 (Commercial Zones) of the Code, subject to a
conditional use permit for a Day Care Center for adults.
2. The Proposed Project, as conditioned herein, will not adversely affect the adjoining
land uses, or the growth and development of the area in which it is proposed to be located because
the use would be compatible with the surrounding commercial and residential uses. All activities
will take place indoors, with no outdoor operations, ensuring no adverse impact on adjacent
properties or the continued growth and development of the area.
3. The size and shape of the site proposed for the use 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 the subject property is adequately sized and shaped to accommodate the
proposed Day Care Center. The approximately 1.2-acre parcel is part of an existing commercial
retail center improved with commercial structures, two vehicle access points, and surface parking.
The Day Care Center will occupy a 12,598-square-foot commercial tenant space with no outdoor
activities. As conditioned, building improvements associated with the use shall be subject to city
review and approval to ensure compliance with applicable accessibility, life safety, and building
code requirements.
4. The traffic generated by the proposed use will not impose an undue burden upon
the streets and highways designed and improved to carry the traffic in the area because all loading,
unloading, and parking for participants and employees will occur entirely on -site, with the primary
form of transportation being passenger vans operated by the center, minimizing any potential
impact on public roadways. The proposed use does not involve an expansion of the existing
building, and its limited hours of operation will result in traffic volumes lower than typical
commercial uses. Given the adequacy of the existing infrastructure and the nature of the use, a
traffic study or Vehicle Miles Traveled analysis was not required, and no adverse traffic impacts
are anticipated.
5. 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 project
has been designed to ensure that the operation of the Day Care Center for adults will not adversely
affect surrounding properties. Conditions of approval have been incorporated to maintain
compatibility with the commercial retail center and surrounding land uses. Therefore, as
conditioned, the proposed use will not be detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare of
the citizens of the City of Anaheim.

WHEREAS, this Planning Commission determines that the evidence in the record
constitutes substantial evidence to support the actions taken and the findings made in this
Resolution, that the facts stated in this Resolution are supported by substantial evidence in the
record, including testimony received at the public hearing, the staff presentations, the staff report,

Property for which the conditional use permit is applicable in order to preserve the health, safety
and general welfare of the citizens of the City of Anaheim. Extensions for further time to complete
conditions of approval may be granted in accordance with Section 18.60.170 (Extension of Time
to Comply With Conditions of Approval) of the Code. Timing for compliance with conditions of

this permit may be processed in accordance with Chapters 18.60.190 (Amendment of Permit

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Planning Commission does hereby find and
determine 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 approval of this application constitutes approval of
the proposed request only to the extent that it complies with the 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.
THE FOREGOING RESOLUTION was adopted at the Planning Commission meeting of
June 30, 2025. Said resolution is subject to the appeal provisions set forth in Chapter 18.60
(Procedures) of the Anaheim Municipal Code pertaining to appeal procedures and may be replaced
by a City Council Resolution in the event of an appeal.
