Anaheim Boulevard and 110-160 West Center Street Promenade; 115-145 W. Broadway; 165-185 W. Broadway and 250-290 S. Lemon Street; 201 W. Broadway and 270-290 S. Clementine Street APPLICANT/PROPERTY OWNER: The applicant and property owner is Greystar, represented by Sean Lynch. REQUEST: The applicant proposes to revise final site and elevation plans for four existing Planned Mixed Use Developments within the Downtown Mixed Use Overlay zone. The revisions include modified building colors, new recreational amenities, and commercial space enhancements in conjunction with a “repositioning” project being proposed for the four mixed use buildings. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve, by motion, Final Site Plan No. 2004-00006A, and determine that the addendum to the previously-certified Environmental Impact Report No. 189 for the Koll Anaheim Center Project, together with other previously-approved environmental documentation, serves as the appropriate environmental documentation for the project actions. BACKGROUND: The project site consists of four Planned Mixed Use Developments within Downtown Anaheim. The properties are located in the General Commercial, Downtown Mixed Use Overlay (C-G; DMU Overlay) zone. The properties are designated for Mixed Use land uses by the General Plan. The properties are developed with four and five story mixed use buildings with commercial spaces on the ground floor and residential units on the upper floors. Surrounding uses include offices and parking structures to the north, east, and west, and an appliance store, apartments, single family homes, and churches to the south, across Broadway. FINAL SITE PLAN NOS. 2003-00008A AND 2004-00006A September 21, 2015 Page 2 of 3 On November 17, 2003, the Planning Commission approved Final Site Plan No. 2003-00008 permitting final elevation plans for the Broadway Arms mixed use project at 201 West Broadway. On December 13, 2004, the Planning Commission approved Final Site Plan No. 2004-00006 permitting final elevation plans for The Promenade, Doria Lofts, and Carnegie Plaza mixed used buildings at 110-160 West Center Street Promenade, 115-145 W. Broadway, and 165-185 West Broadway. The DMU Overlay zone requires that any modifications to final elevation plans be reviewed by the Planning Commission as a Reports and Recommendations item. PROPOSAL: The applicant requests review and approval of modified building colors for four mixed use buildings within Downtown Anaheim. According to the applicant, the modified building colors are part of an effort to reposition the four buildings to reflect a vibrant downtown area that includes high quality residential development, thriving commercial activity, and a pedestrian-friendly environment. The applicant’s repositioning strategy includes modernizing the appearance of the buildings, rebranding the project site under a new name (the “Mix”), modifying the paint colors, and adding recreational amenities such as a health club, remodeled leasing office and clubhouse, new pool, and new novelty rooms for the residents. The applicant also proposes to promote more restaurant and retail activity in the ground floor commercial spaces with modified signs, new patio spaces and awnings, storefront enhancements, modified paint colors, enhanced hardware and light fixtures, and decorative tenant plaques and window graphics. The proposed changes to each building are as follows: • The Promenade: The silver colored trim around the edge of the building would be painted black. The project also includes a new novelty room for the residents. • Carnegie Plaza: The beige colored horizontal banding, the cornice elements at the top of the building, and the awnings on the south side of the building, would all be painted black. The bottom two floors would be changed from rust color to a dark taupe color. The upper three floors would be painted a lighter taupe color. The project also includes a remodeled leasing office and new resident health club. • Doria Lofts: The existing beige and gray colors would be changed to dark blue, gray, and white horizontal banding. The horizontal cornice element would be painted black. The project also includes a new novelty room for the residents. • Broadway Arms: The existing beige and off-white colors would be changed to red, gray, and white. The horizontal cornice element would be painted dark gray. The project also includes a new resident clubhouse and pool area on the two existing second floor decks. FINAL SITE PLAN NOS. 2003-00008A AND 2004-00006A September 21, 2015 Page 3 of 3 ANALYSIS: The proposed building modifications are well designed and are complementary to the character of the downtown area, which is in the process of being rebranded as “Center City.” This rebranding effort is envisioned to be a recognizable urban city center and a public place that is dense, livable, active, and diverse, while capitalizing on existing infrastructure, new and existing amenities, historic features, and a mix of residential, commercial and civic uses. The applicant also presented the repositioning project to the Downtown Anaheim Association (DAA) and the DAA members expressed support for the project. In addition, the architecture of the mixed use buildings are consistent with Goal 11.1 in the Community Design Element of the General Plan, which encourages “architectural designs that are visually stimulating and varied, yet tasteful, containing rich contrasts and distinctive architectural elements.” CONCLUSION: Staff has found the proposed building improvements to be consistent with the vision of Downtown Anaheim and the Community Design Element of the General Plan, and recommends the Planning Commission approve the proposed building modifications.

ITEM NO. 3 PLANNING COMMISSION REPORT City of Anaheim PLANNING & BUILDING DEPARTMENT DATE: SEPTEMBER 21, 2015 SUBJECT: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2015-5817 LOCATION: 5800 East Santa Ana Canyon Road (San Antonio de Padua Catholic Church) APPLICANT/PROPERTY OWNER: The agent is Ross Miletich representing the applicant, Verizon Wireless. The property owner is San Antonio de Padua Catholic Church. REQUEST: The applicant is requesting approval of a conditional use permit to allow a 51-foot high, wireless communications antenna designed as a bell tower at an existing church. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission adopt the attached resolution, determining that this request is categorically exempt from further environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (Class 11, Accessory Structures) and approving Conditional Use Permit No. 2015-05817. BACKGROUND: This 6.2-acre site is currently developed with a church. The property is located in the “T” Transition and “SC” Scenic Corridor Overlay zones and the General Plan designates the site for Low Density Residential land uses. Surrounding land uses include single-family residences to the north across Santa Ana Road, single-family residences to the south and west, and a church with a private school and single-family residences to the east across Solomon Drive. PROPOSAL: The applicant is proposing to construct a 51-foot high, wireless communications antenna designed to look like a church bell tower. The antenna would be located approximately 78 feet from Santa Ana Canyon Road and 70 feet from Solomon Drive in a landscaped planter northeast of the church sanctuary. The associated equipment would be located within an existing eight-foot high, wood fence enclosure. The bell would be painted to match the exterior of the church and would be designed to look similar to the bell tower located on the southwest corner of the church building. The unmanned facility would operate 24 hours a day; seven days a week. Routine maintenance would occur every four to six weeks. 200 S. Anaheim Blvd. Suite #162 Anaheim, CA 92805 Tel: (714) 765-5139 Fax: (714) 765-5280 www.anaheim.net CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2015-05817 September 21, 2015 Page 2 of 3 FINDINGS AND ANALYSIS: Before the Planning Commission may approve a conditional use permit, it must make a finding of fact that the evidence presented shows that all of the following conditions exist: 1) That the proposed use is properly one for which a conditional use permit is authorized by this code; 2) That the proposed use will not adversely affect the adjoining land uses, or the growth and development of the area in which it is proposed to be located; 3) That 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; 4) That 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; and 5) That the granting 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. Telecommunications Facilities: Before the Planning Commission may approve a conditional use permit for a telecommunications facility that exceeds the height of the underlying zone, it must make the additional findings of fact that the evidence presented shows that all of the following conditions exist: 1) Alternatives shall be provided to staff, including but not limited to additional and/or different locations and designs, and has determined that the application as approved would have a lesser impact on the aesthetics and welfare of the surrounding community as compared to other alternatives; 2) Based on the evidence presented, the additional height above the maximum building height for the applicable zone is reasonably necessary for collocation of facilities or for the efficient operation of the proposed facility; and 3) Any negative impacts of the proposed facility are properly mitigated. The Zoning Code requires a conditional use permit for a wireless telecommunications facility in this zone. Antennas that are higher than the maximum height of the underlying may also be approved by conditional use. The purpose of the conditional use permit is to ensure compatibility with surrounding uses and to ensure the project site is adequate to accommodate the use in a safe manner. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2015-05817 September 21, 2015 Page 3 of 3 The Zoning Code allows structures up to 30 feet in height in this zone. The bell tower would be 51 feet high. The wireless facility would be significantly set back from the intersection of Santa Ana Canyon Road and Solomon Drive within an existing landscape planter. The proposed bell tower would be the same height and is designed to complement the other bell tower located southwest of the building. The facility would be located approximately 280 feet from the nearest residential zone boundary to the west and would be separated from the residential uses by the sanctuary building. Since the antenna would not be located adjacent to residential uses and is buffered by an intervening building, staff is not recommending a condition of approval that would limit maintenance hours. The applicant has submitted a site justification study which indicates that the height proposed for this facility is necessary to eliminate coverage gaps and enhance voice and data services in this area of the City. The benefits of this improved service would be better voice and reception quality, higher security and privacy for users and enhanced communications for emergency services. As required by the Zoning Code, the study also provides alternative locations and designs. Five properties within the search ring were considered. The applicant’s engineer determined the alternative locations and designs would not achieve the necessary coverage objectives, the sites did not have the necessary space for the facility or the property owners were not interested in leasing the space for the facility. The proposed antenna would have a lesser impact on the aesthetics of the area as compared to other alternative locations since it would be designed to match the church’s existing bell tower. CONCLUSION: Staff believes that the conditions exist for Planning Commission to make the required findings to approve this request. The proposed telecommunications facility would be compatible with surrounding land uses and would help support the local community by improving telecommunication service in the area. The facility is designed in a manner that minimizes visual and potential noise impacts on surrounding land uses, including adjacent residential neighborhoods. Staff recommends approval of the conditional use permit. Prepared by, Submitted by, Amy Vazquez Jonathan E. Borrego Contract Planner, Lilley Planning Group Planning Services Manager Attachments: 1.

PC2015-*** A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM APPROVING CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2015-05817 AND MAKING CERTAIN FINDINGS IN CONNECTION THEREWITH (DEV2015-00073) (5800 EAST SANTA ANA CANYON ROAD) WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Anaheim (hereinafter referred to as the “Planning Commission”) did receive a verified petition for Conditional Use Permit No. 2015- 05817 to permit a 51-foot high, ground-mounted Wireless Communications Facility designed as a bell tower at a church (herein referred to as the "Proposed Project") located at 5800 East Santa Ana Canyon Road in the City of Anaheim, County of Orange, State of California, as generally depicted on the map attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by this reference (the “Property”); and WHEREAS, the Property, consisting of approximately 6.2 acres, is developed with a church. The Anaheim General Plan designates the property for Low Density Residential land uses. The Property is located in the "T" Transition Zone and is subject to the zoning and development standards of Chapter 18.14 (Public and Special-Purpose Zones) of the Anaheim Municipal Code (the "Code"). The Property is also located within the Scenic Corridor (SC) Overlay Zone, meaning that the regulations contained in Chapter 18.18 (Scenic Corridor (SC) Overlay Zone) of the Code apply to the Property and supersede any inconsistent regulations of the "T" Transition Zone. The Proposed Project is not inconsistent with any regulations contained in Chapter 18.18 (Scenic Corridor (SC) Overlay Zone) of the Code. As such, the Property and the Proposed Project are subject to the zoning and development standards described in Chapter 18.14 (Public and Special Purpose Zones) of the Code; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did hold a public hearing at the Civic Center in the City of Anaheim on September 21, 2015 at 5:00 p.m., 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 said proposed Conditional Use Permit No. 2015-05817, and to investigate and make findings and recommendations in connection therewith; and WHEREAS, pursuant to and in accordance with 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 (commencing with Section 15000 of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations; herein referred to as the "State CEQA Guidelines"), and the City's Local CEQA Procedure Manual, the City is the "lead agency" for the preparation and consideration of environmental documents for the Proposed Project; and - 2 - PC2015-*** WHEREAS, in conformance with CEQA, the CEQA Guidelines and the City's Local CEQA Procedure Manual, the Planning Commission finds and determines that the effects of the Proposed Project are typical of those generated within that class of projects (i.e., Class 11 – Accessory Structures) which consist of the construction, or placement of minor structures accessory to (appurtenant to) existing commercial, industrial, or institutional facilities, and that, therefore, pursuant to Section 15311 of the CEQA Guidelines, the Proposed Project will not cause a significant effect on the environment and is, therefore, 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 Conditional Use Permit No. 2015-05817, does find and determine the following facts: 1. The request to permit a 51-foot high ground-mounted Wireless Communications Facility designed as a church bell tower in the "T" Transition Zone is an allowable use under Section 18.14.030 (Uses) of the Code subject to a conditional use permit and the placement, design and screening criteria set forth in paragraph .0511 of Subsection .050 (Design Standards) of Section 18.38.060 (Antennas – Telecommunications) of the Code. 2. The request to permit a 51-foot high ground-mounted Wireless Communications Facility designed as a church bell tower will not adversely affect the surrounding land uses and the growth and development of the area in which it is proposed to be located because the Proposed Project will be located in an area of the Property containing an identical bell tower that is similar in height; and 3. The size and shape of the site for the proposed 51-foot high Wireless Communications Facility designed as a church bell tower 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 site can accommodate the telecommunications facility without creating detrimental effects on adjacent properties. 4. The traffic generated by the Proposed Project will not impose an undue burden upon the streets and highways designed and improved to carry the traffic in the area because no traffic will be generated by this unmanned telecommunications facility; and 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 Proposed Project will be compatible with surrounding land uses. 6. Alternatives locations were provided to staff, including but not limited to additional and/or different locations and designs, and it has determined that the application as approved would have a lesser impact on the aesthetics and welfare of the surrounding community as compared to other alternatives; 7. Based on the evidence presented, the additional height above the maximum building height for the applicable zone is reasonably necessary for collocation of facilities or for the efficient operation of the proposed facility; and - 3 - PC2015-*** 8. Any negative impacts of the proposed facility are properly mitigated since the bell tower would be designed to look similar to the existing bell tower. WHEREAS, the 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 and all materials in the project files. There is no substantial evidence, nor are there other facts, that detract from the findings made in this Resolution. The Planning Commission expressly declares that it considered all evidence presented and reached these findings after due consideration of all evidence presented to it. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Planning Commission, for the reasons stated herein above, that Conditional Use Permit No. 2015-05817 is hereby approved, contingent upon and 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 Property 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 of the Code. 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 Code, and (iii) the applicant has demonstrated significant progress toward establishment of the use or approved development. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that any amendment, modification or revocation of this permit may be processed in accordance with Chapters 18.60.190 (Amendment to Permit Approval) and 18.60.200 (City-Initiated Revocation or Modification of Permits) of the Code. 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. - 4 - PC2015-*** THE FOREGOING RESOLUTION was adopted at the Planning Commission meeting of September 21, 2015.

REQUEST: The applicant proposes to construct a two-story, single family residence with smaller front and rear yard setbacks and fewer parking spaces than required by code. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the Planning Commission adopt the attached resolution, determining that a Class 3 Categorical Exemption (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures) is the appropriate environmental documentation for this request approving Variance No. 2015-05029. BACKGROUND: This 1,945 square foot lot is vacant and is located in the RM-4 (Residential, Multiple-Family) zone. The General Plan designates this and surrounding properties for Low Density Residential land uses. On October 4, 1982, the Commission approved a variance to allow the development of a single-family residence with greater lot coverage, smaller setbacks and fewer parking spaces than required by code. This residence was never built. A previous residence was demolished in March, 1984. On September 13, 2010, the Planning Commission approved another variance to construct a two-story, single family residence with smaller front and rear yard setbacks and fewer parking spaces than required by code. This residence was never constructed and the variance expired. PROPOSAL: The applicant proposes to construct a 1,317 square foot, 3-bedroom two-story residence with a one-car garage and one parking space in front of the garage. The residence would have an 11 foot, six inch to 22 feet, 10 inch front yard setback at the first floor. A portion of the second floor would project one foot further into the setback. A 10 foot rear yard setback and five foot side yard setbacks are proposed. VARIANCE NO. 2015-05029 September 21, 2015 Page 2 of 3 FINDINGS AND ANALYSIS: Before the Planning Commission may approve a variance, it must make a finding of fact that the evidence presented shows that the following conditions exist: 1) That there are special circumstances applicable to the property, including size, shape, topography, location or surroundings, which do not apply to other property under identical zoning classification in the vicinity; 2) That, because of the special circumstances, shown above, strict application of the Zoning Code deprives the property of privileges enjoyed by other property under identical zoning classification in the vicinity. The Zoning Code allows a single-family residence to be constructed in the RM-4 Zone by utilizing either the RS-2 or RS-3 single-family development standards, depending on the size of the lot. The RS-2 zone minimum lot area is 7,200 square feet and the RS-3 zone is 5,000 square feet. The RS-3 standards were utilized for this project because the small size of the lot. A variance is required because the project would have smaller front and rear yard setbacks and fewer parking spaces than required by the Zoning Code. The following table compares the RS-3 development standards to the proposed project: A variance recognizes that there may be individual lots within a zone or tract that, because of size, peculiar shape, or unusual topography cannot be reasonably developed if all the development standards for the zone are strictly applied. The applicant has submitted a letter of justification indicating that the small size of the lot makes it difficult to meet all of the development standards while providing adequate floor area for the proposed residence. Staff believes that the residence is designed in a manner that is sensitive to the adjacent properties by providing the code required setback for the side yards, and 10 foot front and rear setbacks that are compatible with the neighborhood. With a variance, the property owner would be allowed to use his property in a manner that is basically consistent with the development standards of the RS-3 Zone. Claudina Street includes a mix of single-family and multiple-family residential uses. The majority of buildings are one-story, however, two-story residences are located throughout the surrounding neighborhood and the surrounding properties could be developed by right with two-story structures. Staff believes that this single family residence will be compatible with other residences in the neighborhood. Because this lot is small, staff believes that there are Standard RS-3 Zone Proposed Front Yard Setback 15 ft. 10 ft., 6 in. to 22 ft., 10 in. Rear Yard Setback 15 ft. 10 ft. Side Yard Setback 5 ft. 5 ft. Height Limit 30 ft. 24 ft. Overall Lot Coverage 40% 38% Rear Lot Coverage 35% 33% Parking 4 spaces (2 in a garage) 2 spaces (1 in a garage) VARIANCE NO. 2015-05029 September 21, 2015 Page 3 of 3 special circumstances applicable to the property and that the strict application of the Zoning Code deprives the property of privileges enjoyed by other properties under identical zoning classification in the vicinity. A parking variance is required to allow two spaces (one garage space and one space in front of the garage), where four spaces is required. Plans show that an existing single-car drive apron would be utilized for vehicular access to the property. The proposed parking is consistent with the two previously approved variances for this property. The potential to provide more than two parking spaces on the property by expanding the driveway would be difficult due to the physical constraints of the property, including the small size of the lot and the location of an existing power pole that is located in the middle of the parkway. Staff anticipates that the on-site parking for two vehicles would be adequately to accommodate the parking needs of the residence and that the granting of this variance will not impact adjacent properties or streets in the vicinity. In order to insure that the garage is available for parking, a condition of approval has been included which states that the garage shall not be used for storage and shall be available for parking a vehicle at all times. This property owner experiences hardship because of the size of the site. It places the property owner at a disadvantage with other landowners in the same zone. The hardship is peculiar and unique to this property owner and not shared by other property owners in the same zone. CONCLUSION: Staff believes that the request to construct a two-story, single family residence on this legal non-conforming lot is justified because of the limited size of the lot and therefore, recommends approval of the project subject to the recommended conditions of approval.

PC2015-*** A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM APPROVING VARIANCE NO. 2015-05029 AND MAKING CERTAIN FINDINGS IN CONNECTION THEREWITH (DEV2015-00082) (942 NORTH CLAUDINA STREET) WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Anaheim City (hereinafter "Planning Commission") did receive a verified petition to approve Variance No. 2015-029 to allow construction of a single-family residential dwelling unit with front and rear yard setbacks less than required by the Zoning Code (the "Code") and to allow fewer parking spaces than required by the Code "Proposed Project") for certain real property located at 942 N. Claudina Street in the City of Anaheim, County of Orange, State of California, as generally depicted on the map attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by this reference (the “Property”); and WHEREAS, the Property, consisting of 1,945 square feet, is located in the "RM- 4" Multiple-Family Residential Zone. Because one single-family detached dwelling unit is proposed for the Property, Table 6-A (Primary Uses: Multiple-Family Residential Zones) of Section 18.06.030 (Uses) of Chapter 18.06 (Multiple-Family Residential Zones) provides that the requirements or limitations of either the "RS-2" Single-Family Residential Zone or the "RS-3" Single-Family Residential Zone, based on lot size, are applicable to the development of the Property In this instance, staff determined that the RS-3 Zone is the appropriate zone because the lot size is less than the minimum lot size of the RS-3 Zone. The Anaheim General Plan designates this Property for Low Density residential land uses; and WHEREAS, a previous variance request was approved by the then Planning Commission on October 4, 1982 to permit the development of a single-family residence with a variance for lot coverage, minimum landscape setback and minimum number and type of parking spaces. This residence was never built and a previous residence was demolished in March, 1984. On September 13, 2010, the then Planning Commission approved a Variance (VAR2010-04810) to construct a two-story, single family residence with smaller front and rear yard setbacks and fewer parking spaces than required by code. The Property was not thereafter developed in accordance with VAR2010-04810; accordingly, that entitlement has since expired; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did hold a public hearing at the Civic Center in the City of Anaheim on September 21, 2015, at 5:00 p.m., 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 proposed Variance No. 2015-029 and to investigate and make findings and recommendations in connection therewith; and - 2 - PC2015-*** 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 (herein referred to as the "CEQA Guidelines"), and the City's Local CEQA Procedure Manual, the City is the "lead agency" for the preparation and consideration of environmental documents for the Proposed Project; and WHEREAS, in conformance with CEQA, the CEQA Guidelines and the City's Local CEQA Procedure Manual, the Planning Commission finds and determines that the effects of the Proposed Project are typical of those generated within that class of projects (i.e., Class 3 – New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures) which consist of the construction and location of limited numbers of new, small facilities or structures. Section 15303 of the CEQA Guidelines provides examples of projects that qualify for an exemption from the provisions of CEQA. The example from Section 15303 applicable to the Proposed Project is for the construction of one single-family residence. Since the Proposed Project consists of one single-family residence, the Proposed Project will not cause a significant effect on the environment and is, therefore, 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 pertaining to the request for Variance No. 2015-05029 to allow front and rear yard setbacks less than required by the Code pertaining to the construction of a new single- family residence should be approved for the following reasons: SECTION NO. 18.04.100.010.0101 Minimum front yard setback (15 feet required; 10 feet 6 inches proposed) SECTION NO. 18.04.100.010.0101 Minimum rear yard setback (15 feet required; 10 feet proposed) 1. There are special circumstances applicable to the Property pertaining to the extremely limited size of the lot with the application of the standard setback requirements of the Zoning Code. Because of the size of the Property, it cannot be put to productive use if all of the development standards for the zone are strictly applied. Approval of the variance will place the owner of the Property in parity with other property owners in the same zone in devoting his Property to the basic function of that zone, i.e., residential use. An existing light pole and the location near the street corner intersection further limit the flexibility of designing the home in any other configuration. 2. Strict application of the Code would deprive the Property of privileges enjoyed by other properties under the identical zoning classification in the vicinity. To strictly apply the setback requirements of the existing zone would place the owner of the Property at a disadvantage with other landowners in the same zone. The hardship is peculiar or unique to the owner of the Property and not shared by other property owners in the same zone. - 3 - PC2015-*** WHEREAS, based upon the parking justification letter submitted by the applicant, and observations made by staff, the Planning Commission does further find and determine that the request for a variance for less parking than required by the Code should be approved for the following reasons: SECTION NO. 18.42.030.040 Minimum number of parking spaces (4 spaces required – two garage spaces and two spaces in front of the garage; 2 spaces proposed – one garage space and one space in front of the garage) 1. The variance, under the conditions imposed, will not cause fewer off-street parking spaces to be provided for the proposed use than the number of such spaces necessary to accommodate all vehicles attributable to such use under the normal and reasonably foreseeable conditions of operation of such use because the observations indicate that there are enough parking spaces to accommodate this request; 2. That the variance, under the conditions imposed, will not increase the demand and competition for parking spaces upon the public streets or adjacent private property in the immediate vicinity of the proposed use because the on-site parking will adequately accommodate two vehicles at the Property; 3. That the variance, under the conditions imposed, will not impede vehicular ingress to or egress from adjacent properties upon the public streets in the immediate vicinity of the proposed use because the project site has an existing drive apron access that existed to serve the prior residence located on the property. An existing light pole is located directly in the middle of the lot frontage. The garage parking stall and driveway could not be designed in any other layout due to these physical constraints on the Property. Therefore, it will not impede vehicular ingress to or egress from adjacent properties upon the public streets in the immediate vicinity of the Property. WHEREAS, the 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 and all materials in the project files. There is no substantial evidence, nor are there other facts, that detract from the findings made in this Resolution. The Planning Commission expressly declares that it considered all evidence presented and reached these findings after due consideration of all evidence presented to it. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission does hereby approve Variance No. 2015-05029, contingent upon and subject to the conditions of approval set forth 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 Property under Variance No. 2015-05029 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 of the Anaheim Municipal Code.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that this Variance 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 to Permit Approval) and 18.60.200 (City-Initiated Revocation or Modification of Permits) of the Anaheim Municipal Code. 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.

APPLICANT: City of Anaheim REQUEST: This request is a City-initiated amendment to Chapter 18.30 (DMU Overlay Zone) of Title 18 (Zoning) of the Anaheim Municipal Code related to permitted, conditionally permitted, and prohibited non-residential uses for Planned Mixed Use Developments, and other miscellaneous updates. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission, by motion, determine that the proposed ordinance is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3) of the State of California Guidelines for Implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act (commencing with Section 15000 of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations; herein referred to as the "State CEQA Guidelines") because it will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment and is not a "project", as defined in Section 15378 of the CEQA Guidelines, and recommend to the City Council approval of Zoning Code Amendment No. 2015-00124. PROPOSAL: This amendment includes modifications to permitted, conditionally permitted, and prohibited non-residential land uses in the DMU Overlay Zone. A summary of the proposed amendments is provided as Attachment No. 1 to this report and includes the description and purpose of each amendment. Examples of uses that would be permitted by right as part of this amendment include small markets, restaurants with outdoor dining and on-sale alcoholic beverages, commercial place- making uses, breweries, and wine bars. Two proposed conditionally permitted uses include entertainment venues and outdoor commercial recreation. Examples of prohibited uses include convenience stores, drive through facilities, pawn shops, and smoking lounges. ZONING CODE AMENDMENT NO. 2015-00124 September 21, 2015 Page 2 of 3 ANALYSIS: Since its comprehensive update in 2004, amendments to the Zoning Code have been made on an as-needed basis. This amendment involves changes to permitted, conditionally permitted, and prohibited land uses in the DMU Overlay Zone, and other miscellaneous sections of the Code. The purpose of the Code Amendment is to facilitate land uses that would that support the City’s vision for downtown, and restrict uses that do not support the vision. The City’s vision for the downtown area, which is in the process of being rebranded as “Center City”, includes high quality residential development, thriving commercial activity, and a pedestrian-friendly environment. The vision for downtown is described in the goals and policies of the Land Use Element of the General Plan, the Greater Downtown Guide for Development, and Anaheim Colony Vision, Principles, and Design Guidelines as follows: General Plan Land Use Element • Ensure that the Downtown maintains a mix of uses attractive to broad segments of Anaheim’s population and that stimulate activity during day and evening hours, every day of the week; • Intensify and revitalize strategically located commercial sites in keeping with the Anaheim Colony Vision, Principles and Design Guidelines Greater Downtown Guide for Development – Urban Design Goals • Strengthen the pedestrian realm • Provide a mix of uses for sustainable growth • Use the built environment to define street edges and shared public spaces • Continue to attract new investment Anaheim Colony Vision, Principles, and Design Guidelines • Encourage a wide variety of activities and uses in the downtown area • Design the streets with the pedestrian in mind • Provide quality gathering places, public spaces, comfort, and focal points Staff believes that the proposed code amendment would help to further the goals for Center City. This amendment would facilitate businesses and attractions that would help to create a sense of “place” within Center City and would further contribute to the overall downtown pedestrian activity. This amendment would also complement other food, banquet, and entertainment uses operating within the nearby Packing District. ZONING CODE AMENDMENT NO. 2015-00124 September 21, 2015 Page 3 of 3 CONCLUSION: This proposal is intended to amend the Zoning Code to amend the list of land uses in the DMU Overlay zone in order to support the City’s vision for downtown, as expressed in the Anaheim General Plan. Staff recommends approval of this Zoning Code Amendment. Prepared by, Submitted by, David See Jonathan E. Borrego Senior Planner Planning Services Manager Attachments: 1. Summary of Amendments 2.
