establishing procedures and delegating certain responsibilities to the Planning Commission relating
to the determination of "public convenience or necessity" on those certain applications requiring that

Business and Professions Code. and prior to the issuance of a license by the Department of Alcoholic
Beverage Control (ABC); and
WHEREAS, Section 23958 of the Business and Professions Code provides that ABC
shall deny an application for a license if issuance of that license would tend to create a law
enforcement problem, or if issuance would result in or add to an undue concentration of licenses,
except when an applicant has demonstrated that public convenience or necessity would be served by
the issuance of a license; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Anaheim did receive an
application for a Determination of Public Convenience or Necessity to permit a Type 20 Alcoholic
Beverage Control license to permit the sales of beer and wine for off - premises consumption in
conjunction with an existing drug store on 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, the Planning Commission did hold a public hearing at the Civic Center
in the City of Anaheim on September 27, 2010, notice of said public hearing having been duly given
as required by Resolution No. 95R -134 and in accordance with the provisions of the Anaheim
Municipal Code, Chapter 18.60 "Procedures ", to hear and consider evidence for and against said
proposed determination of public convenience or necessity for an alcoholic beverage control license
to investigate and make findings and recommendations in connection therewith; and
WHEREAS, said 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:
1 PC2010 -100
1. That California state law requires a Determination of Public Convenience or
Necessity when property is located in a reporting district that has a crime rate above the average and
has an over - concentration of licenses; and that Section 23958 of the Business and Professions Code
provides that the ABC shall deny an application for a license if issuance of that license would tend to
create a law enforcement problem except when an applicant has demonstrated that public
convenience or necessity would be served by issuance of a license.
2. That Resolution No. 95R -134 authorizes the City of Anaheim Police Department to
make recommendations related to the public convenience or necessity determinations; and when the
sale of alcoholic,beverages for off-premises consumption is permitted by the Municipal Code, said
recommendations shall take the form of conditions of approval to be imposed on the determination
in order to ensure that the sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages does not adversely affect any
adjoining land use or the growth and development of the surrounding area.
3. That subject property is located within Census Tract No. 878.01 with a population of
4,890 that allows for three off sale ABC licenses and there are presently six licenses in the tract; and,
three on -sale licenses and there are presently seven in the tract. The Anaheim Police Department
evaluates these requests based on the crime rates within the police reporting district by utilizing a 1 /4
mile radius for the subject site. This site has a 1/4 mile radius crime rate of 27% percent below the
average.
4. That the proposal, as conditioned, will not adversely affect the adjoining land
uses and the growth and development of the area in which it is located because the sale of alcoholic
beverages is ancillary to the overall product mix provided by the full service drug store, the store
area dedicated to alcohol sales represents 2% of the sales floor area.
5. That the traffic generated by the continued use of the property as a drug store with off -
premises alcoholic beverage sales will not impose an undue burden upon the streets and highways
designed and improved to carry the traffic in the area and;
6. That the granting of the Determination of Public Convenience or Necessity under the
conditions imposed will not be detrimental to the health and safety of the citizens of the City of
Anaheim as the sale of alcoholic beverages is ancillary to the drug store and would serve as an added
convenience to those who choose to shop at this establishment. The Police Department indicates
that the business owner has strict policies and provides training for its employees regarding the sale
of alcoholic beverages; therefore the Police Department does not feel that the granting of the Iicense
will be detrimental to the surrounding neighborhood, subject to the conditions of approval.
WHEREAS, the proposed project falls within the definition of Categorical
Exemptions, Section 15301, Class 1 (Existing Facilities) as defined in the State CEQA Guidelines,
and is therefore, exempt from the requirement to prepare additional environmental documentation.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Anaheim City Planning
Commission does hereby determine that the public convenience or necessity will be served by the
issuance of a license for the sale of beer and wine for off - premises consumption at this location
- 2 - PC2010 -100
subject to the conditions of approval described in Exhibit "B" attached hereto and incorporated by
this reference which are found to be a necessary prerequisite to the proposed use of the subject
property in order to preserve the health, safety and general welfare of the Citizens of the City of
Anaheim.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED this permit is approved without limitations on the
duration of the use. Amendments, modifications and revocations of this permit may be processed in
accordance with Chapters 18.60.190 (Amendment of Permit Approval) and 18.60.200 (City- Initiated
Revocation or Modification of Permits) of the Anaheim Municipal Code.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Anaheim City 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 the Anaheim City 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 findings hereinabove set forth.
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 for this project. Failure to pay all charges shall result in delays in the issuance of required
permits or the revocation of the approval of this application.
