ITEM NO. 1A
PLANNING COMMISSION REPORT
City of Anaheim
PLANNING AND BUILDING DEPARTMENT
DATE: AUGUST 3, 2020
SUBJECT: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2012-05597B
LOCATION: 255 North Anaheim Boulevard (Alexan Center City)
APPLICANT/PROPERTY OWNER: The applicant and property owner is
Uptown Anaheim Apartments, LLC, represented by Tony Ditteaux.
REQUEST: The applicant requests Planning Commission approval to modify
exhibits for a previously-approved mixed-use development. The revisions include
the conversion of 11,136 square feet of commercial area to 11 live/work units.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission, by
motion, determine that this request is categorically exempt from further
environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (Class 1
(Existing Facilities) and approve the revised site plan, finding that it is substantially
in conformance with the exhibits originally approved in conjunction with
Conditional Use Permit No. 2012-05597.
BACKGROUND: The 4.29-acre
property is developed with a mixed-use
development consisting of 220 apartments
and 18,000 square feet of commercial
space. The property is located in the C-
G” General Commercial zone and the
“MU” Mixed-Use Overlay Zone. The
General Plan designat es this property for
Mixed-Use High land uses. The
surrounding land uses include single and
multiple-family residences, a church and
commercial uses to the north, a retail
center to the south, and office buildings to
the east and west.
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2012-05597B
August 3, 2020
Page 2 of 4
On April 21, 2014, the Planning Commission unanimously approved Conditional Use Permit
No. 2012-05597 and a rezoning request to construct a 4-story, 220-unit apartment building with
18,000 square feet of commercial space on this site. On July 15, 2014, the City Council
adopted an ordinance rezoning the site to the “C-G” General Commercial and “MU” Mixed Use
Overlay zones.
On November 17, 2014, the Planning Commission approved Tentative Parcel Map No. 2012-
148 that consolidated the five parcels that comprised the project site. The map straightened out
the curved property lines created by the meandering sidewalks and parkway planters in the
right -of-way along Lincoln Avenue and Anaheim Boulevard.
On October 19, 2015, the Planning Commission approved an amendment to the Conditional
Use Permit, an amendment to the Tentative Parcel Map, and an Administrative Adjustment to
reduce the recreational-leisure space of the project by approximately nine percent from 42,300
square feet to 38,720 square feet. The project was constructed and opened in May 2019 with
14,588 square feet of commercial space. Some of the approved commercial space was
constructed with a leasing office and a fitness room. The final development included 40,104
square feet of recreation-leisure space, in excess of the previously-approved reduction.
PROPOSAL AND ANALYSIS: The applicant is proposing to convert 11,136 square feet of
ground floor commercial space to 11 live/work units. The applicant has indicated that they have
been actively marketing the commercial space for two years and are having difficulty securing
commercial tenants. Securing tenants has become even more difficult with the advent of the
COVID-19 pandemic and the closure of many businesses.
The proposed live/work units would provide the ability to lease 11 more residential units that
would provide needed housing and work from home opportunities. The live/work units would
range in size from 762 square feet to 1,188 square feet and would be a mix of studios and 1
bedroom units. The applicant is actively working with prospective tenants to secure the
remaining 3,452 square foot commercial space.
The Adminstrative Adjustment approved in 2015 allowed 38,720 square feet of recreation-
leisure space. The property was developed with a total of 40,104 square feet of recreation-
leisure space, which is 1,384 square feet more than what was approved. The addition of the 11
live/work units requires 1,800 square feet of recreational-leisure space for a total requirement of
40,520 square feet. The applicant is proposing to add a 550 square foot “bike kitchen” as an
amenity for residents to repair and maintain bicycles. With the addition of this bike kitchen, the
property would have 40,654 square feet of recreation/leisure space exceeding the minimum
required recreation/leisure space.
The proposed bike kitchen would displace three parking spaces on the first floor. The parking
requirements for mixed-use developments are determined by a parking demand study. A
parking demand study was approved for this project and determined that 577 spaces were
required. The study identified 420 spaces for the residential units and 157 spaces for the
commercial uses based upon a rate of 1.9 spaces per residential unit and 8.3 spaces per 1,000
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2012-05597B
August 3, 2020
Page 3 of 4
square feet of commercial uses. The project was constructed with 583 parking spaces. Based
upon the rates approved in the project parking study, 439 parking spaces would be required for
the proposed residential units and 27 parking spaces for the commercial uses, for a tota l of 466
spaces. Because a total of 580 spaces are proposed for this project, a surplus of 114 spaces
would exist on the site.
No changes to the exterior of the building are proposed. The existing storefront elevations on
Anaheim Boulevard would remain and serve as the public entrance for the live/work units.
Only tenant improvements are proposed to the interior of the current commercial space.
Anaheim Boulevard Elevation
Per Anaheim Municipal Code Section 18.60.190.020, minor amendments require a
determination whether the amendment is in substantial conformance with the use and/or the
plans that were originally approved. The findings that need to be made are as follows:
1. The underlying zoning and the General Plan land use designation for the area in which
the amendment is proposed have not changed significantly since the permit was
originally approved;
2. No new waivers of code requirements are needed;
3. The conditions of approval are not proposed to be substituted or amended, except the
substitution or modification to the conditions of approval of a permit previously
approved when a written finding is made that the substitute or amended conditions are
equivalent or more effective;
4. No substantive changes to the approved site plan are proposed;
5. The nature of the approved use is not significantly changed;
6. The approved use is not intensified; and
7. No new or substantially greater environmental impacts would result.
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2012-05597B
August 3, 2020
Page 4 of 4
Since the site plan is being revised from the original conditional use permit , staff is presenting
the changes as a “Reports and Recommendations” item to the Planning Commission to
determine if the revisions are in substantial conformance with the originally approved exhibits,
and to ensure that the changes have no impact to surrounding propertie s. Staff believes that the
addition of the live/work units is appropriate due to the current and future uncertainty of
traditional commercial uses, especially those that are located in mixed-use developments. The
live/work units would provide opportunities for an emerging work-from-home culture as well as
other traditional live/work businesses. The project would exceed the Code requirement for
parking spaces and the recreation-leisure space would increase with the addition of the bike
kitchen. For these reasons, staff believes that the findings can be made for the minor
amendment to the conditional use permit and therefore; staff supports this request.
Environmental Impact Analysis: Staff recommends the Planning Commission find that the
effects of the proposed project are typical of those generated within the Class 1 (Existing
Facilities) Categorical Exemption. Class 1 consists of the operation, repair, maintenance,
permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures,
facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no
expansion of use beyond that existing at the time of this determination. The proposed project is
a request to convert 11,136 square feet of commercial area to 11 live/work units within a
recently constructed mixed-use development . No expansion of the existing building is
proposed. As such, the proposed project meets the criteria for a Class 1 categorical exemption.
Pursuant to Section 15300.02 (c) and 15303 of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations,
there are no unusual circumstances in respect to the proposed project for which staff would
anticipate a significant effect on the environment and, therefore, the proposed project would be
categorically exempt from the provisions of CEQA.
CONCLUSION: Staff believes that the proposed changes would be consistent with the original
mixed-use project approval and that these changes would provide a needed amenity to the
residential and commercial community. Staff recommends that the Planning Commission
determine that the changes are in substantial conformance with the originally-approved exhibits.

Alexan CTR City Apartments
Live / Work Addition
Project Description
Alexan CTR City is a 220 unit Mixed Use Apartment community in CTR City Anaheim.
The project is located on the corner of North Anaheim Blvd and Lincoln Ave. This
proposal requests the addition of 11 unique Live / Work units in the existing vacant retail
space. These units range in size from 762 SF to 1,188 SF and are a mix of Studios and
1 Bedroom units.
This Live / Work concept will activate Anaheim Blvd and create an interesting new
component to this vibrant multifamily community. The existing elevations will remain
essentially unchanged as we are proposing a “Tenant Improvement” within the existing
shell space.
Given the new realities of the COVID-19 Pandemic, this Live / Work concept will provide
needed housing and work from home opportunities to Anaheim residents.
The Retail 1 shall space shall remain and we are actively working with a few prospective
tenants.
Recreational – Leisure Open space requirements will be satisfied by a 550 SF “Bike
Kitchen”. A community amenity that will be built inside the retail parking structure that will
allow residents to clean, repair and maintain bicycles.

Amendment to Zoning Actions and Determination of Substantial Conformance Justification
Minor Amendment to Conditional Use Permit No. CUP2012-05597
This is an application for a Minor Amendment to CUP 2012-05597 (the “CUP”) to convert a
portion of the existing permitted retail floor area to live/work dwelling units. The property, located at
200-282 North Lemon Street, 107-127 West Lincoln Avenue and 120 West Cypress Street (the
“Property”), has struggled to find retail tenants to occupy its retail commercial space. The applicant
therefore requests that the existing CUP be amended to allow for some of the retail space to be converted
to live-work units. The Property is located in the City’s Mixed Use Overlay Zone (“MUOZ”), which
allows for live-work uses.
What is the Minor Amendment application requesting?
The CUP allows for up to 220 apartment units and 18,000 square feet of commercial retail uses at
the Property. The requested Minor Amendment to the CUP would permit some of the Property’s retail
space to be used as live/work units, as defined by Code section 18.32.020.080.1 Specifically, we are
requesting that the CUP be amended to allow 11,136 square feet of the Property’s existing 14,588 square
feet of retail space to be converted to live/work units, as follows:
Eleven live/work units in existing retail space that will front Anaheim Boulevard and
Lincoln Avenue or the interior parking-adjacent courtyard. Only the commercial
component of each unit will front the public street.
The location of the proposed live/work units is shown on the plans that accompany this Minor
Amendment application. The remaining 3,452 square feet of retail space at the Property would continue
to be available for retail uses.
A Minor Amendment to a Conditional Use Permit must be in “substantial conformance” with the
use and/or plans that were originally approved. (Code § 18.60.190.020). Such is the case here. The
proposed Minor Amendment would not alter the Property’s footprint or site plan – the Property’s exterior
physical structure would remain essentially the same as it exists today. Further, no new waivers of code
requirements are being requested in connection with the Minor Amendment. The only CUP conditions
that require revision are those that would inhibit the proposed conversion of retail floor area to live/work
units.
Why is a Minor Amendment needed?
Currently, 14,588 square feet of retail space exists at the Property. This space is located on the
ground floor and oriented to Anaheim Boulevard and Lincoln Avenue. All of this retail space sits
empty and without tenants. In fact, the Property has not been able to place a single retail tenant since it
was completed in May 2019. This challenging reality has been accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic
crisis, which has further reduced demand for brick-and-mortar retail space as shoppers stay home and
1 Anaheim Municipal Code section 18.32.020.080 specifies the following regarding live/work units: A commercial
land use may be combined with a residential land use within one unit to create a space that contains both a residence
and commercial area such as an office. Live/work units shall not resemble a residence. The number of permitted
live/work units shall be specified and determined through the conditional use permit process.
085946\11760465v1
shop online. Such is the case not only at the Property but in the surrounding area, and experts anticipate
that this trend will persist once the COVID-19 crisis abates.2
The COVID-19 crisis has also accelerated another trend: working from home. Working from
home has become a mainstay of modern American life, and again, experts expect this to continue once the
COVID-19 crisis is over.3 For underutilized retail space that is located in the City’s MUOZ, conversion
to live/work units is an appropriate adjustment to respond to changing times. Plus, even with the
proposed live/work units, the Property will maintain 3,452 square feet of traditional retail space to offer
potential tenants.
The proposed Minor Amendment complies with the provisions of the MUOZ as detailed in Code
section 18.32.010 et seq. With respect to ground-floor uses, the MUOZ notes that “[i]n order to
encourage an active street life while accommodating market demand, the ground floor facing the street
shall be used for commercial uses, which may include the non-residential portion of live/work units.”
(Code § 18.32.030.070). This would be the case at the Property if the Minor Amendment is granted. The
live/work units at the Property will advance several of the stated intentions of the MOUZ, including:
Providing additional housing options for people who want to live near their workplace
and/or near retail and other non-residential uses;
Reducing the need for automobile travel;
Enhancing the vitality of businesses at the Property;
Finally, the proposed Minor Amendment is consistent with the General Plan, which encourages
the development of a blend of residential, commercial, and office uses in the Downtown Core. The Minor
Amendment to permit live/work units in the Property’s retail space is exactly the type of innovative
development feature that the MUOZ envisions, and it will ensure that the Property operates to its full
potential and best serves the community and the City for many years to come.

City of Anaheim
PLANNING AND BUILDING DEPARTMENT
DATE: AUGUST 3, 2020
SUBJECT: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2018-05955
ADMINISTRATIVE ADJUSTMENT NO. 2018-00425
LOCATION: 2720 West Lincoln Avenue (Lincoln RV Storage)
APPLICANT/PROPERTY OWNER: The applicant is Fred Cartozian. The property
owner is Roy E. Hearrean.
REQUEST: The applicant requests approval of a conditional use permit to establish
an outdoor recreational vehicle (RV) storage facility and an administrative adjustment
to permit reduced front setbacks on a vacant 1.87 acre site.
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 3, New
Construction or Conversion of Small Structures) and approving Conditio nal Use Permit
No. 2018-05955 and Administrative Adjustment No. 2018-00425.
BACKGROUND: This 1.87-acre vacant
property is located in the "OS" Open Space zone
and has a General Plan land use designat ion of
Open Space. The property is adjacent to
Transition (T) zoned properties to the north and
west, which are owned by Southern California
Edison. Immediately south of the project site is
an Orange County Flood Control District
channel. The properties north and west of the
project site are occupied by the Anaheim RV
Storage facility. There is multiple family-zoned
property to the east which is currently occupied
by the 2-story, 42-unit Beachside Apartment
complex.

SITE PLAN
PROPOSAL: The applicant proposes to establish an outdoor RV storage facility for up to 80
recreational vehicles ranging from 24 to 40 feet in length. The project is designed with the
majority of 90 degree RV spaces along the east and west property line with a single drive aisle to
a cul-de-sac at the south end which would allow the required turnaround for RV’s, fire engines,
and trash trucks. The request also includes the installation of a 320 square foot modular office
trailer and a 10-foot high masonry block wall within 20 feet of the front property line adjacent to
Lincoln Avenue.
Access to the facility would be provided from Lincoln Avenue through an automated entry gate
that is setback 42 feet from the Lincoln Avenue-right -of-way. The RV facility would be
equipped with air/water, a dumping station, trash bins and ADA accessibility. Hours of
operation for the RV storage facility would be from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Monday through
Saturday, and 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on Sunday. There would be four parking spaces for the
office trailer, including one van-accessible parking space.
A new 10-foot high masonry block wall would
be installed along the east property line adjacent
to the existing apartment complex with
landscaping in specified locations. A new 10-
foot high block wall would also be installed on
the south property line adjacent to the flood
control channel.
The request for an administrative adjustment is
to allow for a 20-foot setback for the walls and
office trailer, whereas a 25-foot front setback is
required in the Open Space zone. The proposed
walls would be compatible with the setbacks for
walls on the existing RV storage facility to the
west which maintains a 20-foot front setback
adjacent to Lincoln Avenue.

FINDINGS AND ANALYSIS:
Conditional Use Permit: 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.
Outdoor storage yards are permitted in the Open Space zone, subject to the approval of a
conditional use permit to ensure compatibility with the surrounding area. Outdoor storage is
required to be screened from view of a public street . The project is designed to be entirely
screened by a 10-foot high masonry wall and landscaping, similar to the screening provided for
the RV storage facility to the west . The wall would also provide a buffer for the existing
apartment project to the east. Small planter areas would be strategically located to provide for
trees to further screen the outdoor RV storage from the residential site.
Parking requirements for this type of use is a minimum of four spaces or 4 spaces per 1,000
square feet of gross floor area for any accessory building, whichever is greater. In this case, the
project consists of only open RV parking and a 320 square foot modular office building. The
parking for the proposed RV storage use would only need to provide for prospective customers
and occasional deliveries. No parking is required for the RV storage spaces. The four spaces
proposed near the office trailer would comply with parking Code requirements. Staff has
determined that there is sufficient on-site parking to accommodate the demand of prospective
tenants and deliveries and that the use would be compatible with the surrounding outdoor storage
and multiple family residential uses.
To determine the traffic generated by the proposed use, t he applicant provided a self-conducted
traffic study/parking justification which included survey data on two days at the adjacent RV
storage facility (Attachment 6). The study which occurred on two weekdays concluded that
during the AM peak hours (7 a.m. to 9 a.m.) a total of 3 vehicles entered the site and 2 vehicles
exited. During the PM peak hours (4 p.m. to 6 p.m.) a total of 4 vehicles entered and 5 vehicles
exited. Staff acknowledged that these figures were typical peak hour trips generated by RV
storage facilities of this size and that these figures may be slightly higher on weekends. The small
number of trips generated by the project , however, did not require submittal of a full Traffic
Impact Analysis.

August 3, 2020

Conditions of approval to ensure that the business is operated in a responsible manner have been
attached to the draft resolution. These conditions include a requirement for landscape screening
in specified areas along the eastern property line (as proposed), adjacent to the apartment
complex, specifying hours of operation, and restricting inoperable vehicles, maintenance or
repair of vehicles and overnight camping from occurring on-site. Staff believes that, although
the project would involve installation of new 10-foot high screen walls, additional landscaping
would provide an additional buffer between the storage and residential uses. Based on these
factors and compliance with the recommended conditions of approval, staff believes that the
proposed use would be compatible with the surrounding area and recommends approval of the
conditional use permit.
Administrative Adjustment: The applicant requests an administrative adjustment to permit a 20-
foot front setback for the proposed screen wall and modular office trailer. A minimum 25-foot
front setback is required for all structures in the Open Space zone. The Planning Director has a
review authority over Administrative Adjustments, but may refer any application to the Planning
Commission for review. Since the conditional use permit must be approved by the Planning
Commission, the Planning Director has referred the Administrative Adjustment to the
Commission to provide a comprehensive evaluation of the project and to make a finding of fact
that the evidence presented shows that all of the following conditions exist:
1) The adjustment is consistent with the purposes and intent of the Zoning Code;
2) The same or similar result cannot be achieved by using provisions in the Zoning Code
that do not require the adjustment; and
3) The adjustment will not produce a result that is out of character or detrimental to the
neighborhood.
The exception to the 25-foot structural setback is requested specifically to permit the 10-foot
high screen wall and modular o ffice trailer which would be located behind the wall. The
adjustment for a 20% reduction in the required front setback is consistent with the purposes and
intent of the Zoning Code because a 20-foot landscaped setback would be sufficient to screen the
out door storage use from public view. The 20-foot setback would be entirely landscaped and
would be consistent with the landscape setback for the abutting RV storage lot to the west. The
setback reduction would not produce a project that is out of character or detrimental to the
neighborhood. Staff supports the request for the minor adjustment to the structural setback by
allow ing for these encroachments.
Environmental Impact Analysis: Staff recommends the Planning Commission find that the
effects of the proposed outdoor RV storage facility are typical of those generated within the
Class 3, New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures, Categorical Exemption. Class 3
consists of the of construction and location of limited numbers of new, small facilities or
structures; installation of small new equipment and facilities in small structures; and the
conversion of existing small structures from one use to another where only minor modifications
are made in the exterior of the structure. The proposed project is a request to establish an outdoor
RV storage facility for up to 80 recreational vehicles ranging from 24 feet to 40 feet in length.
The request includes installation of a 320 square foot modular office trailer and 10-foot high
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2018-05955 AND ADMINISTRATIVE ADJUSTMENT NO. 2018-00425
August 3, 2020
Page 5 of 5
masonry block walls within 20 feet of the front property line. As such, the proposed project
meets the criteria for a Class 3 categorical exemption. Pursuant to Section 15300.02 (c) and
15303 of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations, there are no unusual circumstances in
respect to the proposed project for which staff would anticipate a significant effect on the
environment and, therefore, the proposed project is categorically exempt from the provisions of
CEQA.
CONCLUSION: The proposed outdoor recreational vehicle storage use with a modular office
trailer and screen walls would be compatible with surrounding storage and residential land
uses. The recommended conditions of approval would ensure that the facility will not have an
adverse impact on the surrounding land uses. Therefore, staff recommends approval of this
request.

A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF ANAHEIM APPROVING CONDITIONAL USE
PERMIT NO. 2018-05955 AND ADMINISTRATIVE
ADJUSTMENT NO. 2018-00425 AND MAKING CERTAIN
FINDINGS IN CONNECTION THEREWITH
(DEV2018-00009)
(2720 WEST LINCOLN AVENUE)
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Anaheim (the "Planning
Commission") did receive a verified petition to approve Conditional Use Permit No. 2018-
05955 to permit an outdoor Recreational Vehicle (RV) storage facility with a modular office
trailer and Administrative Adjustment No. 2018-00425 to permit reduced front yard setbacks
(the "Proposed Project") on that certain real property located at 2720 West Lincoln Avenue 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; and
WHEREAS, the Property is approximately 1.89 acres in size and is currently
undeveloped. The Anaheim General Plan designates the Property for Open Space land uses.
The underlying zone of the Property is the "OS" Open Space, meaning that the Property is
subject to the zoning and development standards contained in Chapter 18.14 (Public and
Special-Purpose Zones) of the Anaheim Municipal Code (the "Code"); and
WHEREAS, on March 4, 2020, Governor Newsom proclaimed a State of
Emergency in California as a result of the threat of COVID-19. On March 17, 2020, Governor
Newsom issued Executive Order N-29-20 (superseding the Brown Act-related provisions of
Executive Order N-25-20 issued on March 12, 2020), which allows a local legislative body to
hold public meetings via teleconferencing and to make public meetings accessible
telephonically or otherwise electronically to all members of the public seeking to observe and
to address the local legislative body; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Executive Order N-29-20 the Planning Commission did
hold a teleconferencing public hearing in the City of Anaheim on August 3, 2020 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 the Proposed Project, and to investigate and make findings and
recommendations 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"), 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 - PC2020-***
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission also finds and determines that the effects of
the proposed outdoor RV Storage facility are typical of those generated within that class of
projects (i.e., Class 3 – New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures) which consists 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, one of which being the const ruction of commercial buildings not
exceeding 10,000 square feet in floor area on sites zoned for such use if not involving the use
of significant amounts of hazardous substances where all necessary public services and facilities
are available and the surrounding area is not environmentally sensitive. 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 Proposed project and, specifically, with respect to the request
for Conditional Use Permit No. 2018-05955, does find and determine the following:
1. The Proposed Project is an allowable primary use within the Open Space
Zone, subject to approval of a conditional use permit, as authorized under Table 14-A of Section
18.14.030 (Uses) of Chapter 18.14 (Public and Special-Purpose Zones) of the Code.
2. The proposed conditional use permit to permit the Proposed Project as
conditioned herein, would not adversely affect the adjoining land uses and the growth and
development of the area in which it is proposed to be located because the facility will be
adequately screened from public view, buffered from residential uses by a 10 -foot high wall,
and is adjacent to an existing RV storage facility which is currently in operation.
3. The size and shape of the site for the use is adequate to allow the full
development of the Proposed Project in a manner not detrimental to the particular area or to the
health and safety because the facility will provide a sufficient number of on-site parking spaces,
adequate vehicle circulation, and sufficient buffers from adjacent land uses, while maintaining
utility easements that currently exist on the property.
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 the traffic generated by this use will not exceed the anticipated volumes of traffic on
the surrounding streets and adequate parking and circulation will be provided to accommodate
the use.
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 as the Proposed
Project will be integrated with the surrounding outdoor RV storage uses which operat e under
utility lines throughout the City and would not pose a health or safety risk to the citizens of the
City of Anaheim.
- 3 - PC2020-***
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission does further find and determine that the
request for Administrative Adjustment No. 2018-00425 may be approved for the following
reasons:
SECTION NO. 18.14.100 Minimum Landscaping and Structural
Setbacks. (25 feet required; 20 feet
proposed)
1. The adjustment for a 20% reduction in the required front setback for the front
screen wall and temporary modular office trailer is consistent with the purposes and intent of
the Zoning Code because the new RV storage facility will provide a 10-foot high masonry wall
to screen the outdoor storage use from public view. The resulting 20-foot setback will be
entirely landscaped and will be consistent with the landscape setback provided for the abutting
RV Storage lot to the west; and
2. The same or similar result cannot be achieved by using provisions in the Zoning
Code that do not require the adjustment. The Zoning Code requires all structures, including
fencing, maintain a minimum 25 foot front setback on Open Space zoned properties. The
application of the 20% adjustment to the 25-foot setback would result in only a 5-foot reduction
in the required setback, which is sufficient to provide adequate landscaping and would be
consistent with the abutting RV Storage facility to the west; and
3. The adjustment will allow for the screening of outdoor RV storage in a manner
compatible with the design and setback of the adjacent RV Storage facility, and will not produce
a result that is out of character or detrimental to the neighborhood; therefore, the Proposed
Project would not negatively impact the surrounding neighborhood; and
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 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. This 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, pursuant to the above findings, this
Planning Commission does hereby approve Conditional Use Permit No. No. 2018-05955, and
Administrative Adjustment No. 2018-00425 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 that portion of the
Property for which Conditional Use Permit No. 2018-05955 and Administrative Adjustment
No. 2018-00425 are 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 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, (ii) the modification complies with the Code, and (iii) the applicant has demonstrated
significant progress toward establishment of the use or approved development.
- 4 - PC2020-***
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.
THE FOREGOING RESOLUTION was adopted at the Planning Commission
meeting of August 3, 2020. 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.

Anaheim, CA. 92805
Regarding: 2720 W. Lincoln Avenue
Anaheim, CA.
Subject: Request for Conditional Use Permit
Pending CUP2018-05955/DEV2018-00009
To Whom It May Concern:
I am the owner of property located at 2720 W. Lincoln Avenue, in the City of Anaheim. The property
encompasses 1.83 acres and was recently rezoned to an Open Space designation to allow the use as an
RV Storage facility. The site is encumbered by a blanket easement by Southern California Edison
Company for maintenance and repair of their power lines. This easement seriously limits the
development possibilities of this parcel, other than use as a recreational vehicle (RV) and boat storage
facility. Consequently, we are requesting a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to allow development of an
80 space Recreational Vehicle Storage facility.
The site was recently rezoned to allow such use which is in conformance with two of the neighboring
uses, including the R.V. Storage facility, of the same size, to the west and contiguous to our parcel, and a
larger R.V. Storage facility located immediately across the street. Our recent meeting with SC Edison to
discuss the project resulted in a positive response to our development request. The subject site could
accommodate a substantially larger number of spaces, but is limited to some lesser number by the
narrowness of the lot and certain restrictions imposed by S.C. Edison.
Request
Please note, we are requesting an "administrative adjustment" to allow a 20' front setback, a relief from
the required 25' This adjustment will place our wall more in line with the adjacent RV Storage facility to
our west.
Our parcel is exactly the same size as the R.V. Storage facility located next to our site which, on
February 9, 2004, by action of the Planning Commission, "approved Conditional Use Permit No. 2003-
04816 to permit a 133 space recreational vehicle storage facility and accessory modular office with
waivers of maximum fence height and minimum front yard setback" NOTE: Due to easement and
Edison restrictions, only 77 spaces were developed.
The site will be fully secured with electronic gate access for ingress and egress, site lighting and security
cameras. A fully integrated computer and security system will monitor and record every vehicle entering
and leaving the facility. Although tenants will have access 7 days a week, the times will be restricted to
7am-7pm Monday through Saturday, 8am to 6pm Sunday, with on-site management during those hours.

ATTACHMENT NO. 2
Lincoln Avenue is a relatively busy traffic arterial traversing the entire City of Anaheim from east to west.
The street is characterized by a mix of business developments including small retail strip centers, stand
alone fast food restaurants, auto repair, apartments and the aforementioned R.V. Storage (2) facilities
to name a few. With the exception of the subject property, there are few vacant sites.
The facility will generate very little traffic entering and exiting the site, which is the very nature of an RV
"Storage" facility. In fact, as requested, we have undertaken a study of the traffic generated at the
adjacent 77 space R.V Storage facility (same size as subject) during the weekday peak traffic hours of
early morning and late afternoon which disclosed the following: (7 AM to 9 AM) 4 vehicles entered and
5 exited; (4PM to 6 PM) 3 vehicles entered and 2 exited. Tenants seldom visit the facility, and generally
only when they intend to use their vehicle for an occasional weekend or extended travel vacation.
Discussions with other R.V. Storage managers revealed similar limited traffic patterns.
Projects Positive Elements:
1) Improve and Enhance the aesthetics of the Lincoln Avenue Corridor
2) Eliminate the use of the property as a dump site
3) Produces a substantial increase in tax revenue
4) Less use of Public Utilities than other uses
5) Produces much less traffic than other uses
6) Eliminates Police and Sheriff's ongoing surveillance and activity
7) Eliminates use of property as a staging area for vandalizing of neighbors
8) Eliminates homeless encampments
9) Eliminates the sight of graffiti from Lincoln Avenue and adjacent apartments
10)Eliminate view of our site from apartments by building 12' high block wall and planting trees
11)Local need for RV Storage since parking in neighborhoods recently banned in Anaheim
Approval of this request, and the subsequent development of the site, will result in a marked
improvement to the neighborhood. It is important to note that the subject property has been an
ongoing problem for us, the neighbors, the City and the Police and Sheriffs' Departments. The events
are well documented that on several occasions over the years, the "homeless" have regularly broken
through our fences, erected tent encampments, painted graffiti on the block walls, dumped trash,
mattresses and blankets, personal belongings and human waste and used the property as a staging area
to vandalize the R.V. facility and apartment complex located on either sides of, and adjacent to our
property. To this day these problems persist.
East Property Line
While there are very few windows in the apartments that have any views of our site, our project will
serve to provide a significant improvement to the unpleasant sights they have endured over the years.
There is only one (1) window (2'x3' which appears to be translucent), that directly faces our site, and six
(6) windows that have a partial view, since those apartments directly face each other onto a courtyard.
2
Working with the Planning Department, we have designed the project to mitigate any noise or visual
nuisance to the apartments:
1) Construct a 10' block wall (12' on the apartment side) to replace an existing 6' high wooden fence in
disrepair.
2) Strategically plant six mature trees to further block any view of our site.
3) Only 21 spaces which might affect those units, will be aligned along that wall.
4) Based on our study and the information garnered from other RV Storage facilities, on average, less
than one vehicle per day would move in or out of one of those spaces.
When viewing our site plan, please note that we have designed the spaces to be perpendicular to that
wall. While parking at a 45 degree angle may provide a slightly easier access to the spaces, it seriously
limits the number. This limitation is in addition to the limited use of the lot due to its narrowness and
the Edison easements. Consequently, the requirement for any set-back for parking along the east wall
seriously diminishes the viability of the project. Based on our recent correspondence with the Planning
Department,we believe we have mitigated any objections to our site plan, as it exists.
We are confident that the subject project will not only be a marked improvement to the area, but also
solve the problems described above, and be a positive addition to the neighborhood. If you require
more information, please respond to Fred Cartozian, who is representing me on this project. He may be
reached at: (562) 714-5622
Very truly yours,
Roy E. Hearrean

PLANNING COMMISSION REPORT
City of Anaheim
PLANNING AND BUILDING DEPARTMENT
DATE: AUGUST 3, 2020
SUBJECT: ZONING CODE AMENDMENT NO. 2020-00170
LOCATION: Citywide
APPLICANT: City of Anaheim
REQUEST: This is a City-initiated amendment to Title 18 (Zoning) of the Anaheim
Municipal Code (Code) to provide standards and regulations for unlicensed
community care facilities and sober living homes.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission, by
motion, recommend that the City Council determine that the proposed draft ordinance
(Attachment 1) is not subject to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) per
CEQA Guidelines Sections 15060 (c)(2), 15060(c)(3), and 15301; and, that the City
Council adopt the proposed ordinance.
BACKGROUND: This item was agendized for the July 6, 2020 Planning
Commission meeting. At that meeting, the Planning Commission continued the
public hearing to this meeting in consideration of continuance requests (Attachment
4)received from representatives of Lighthouse Treatment Center and the California
Consortium of Addiction Programs and Professionals (“CCAPP”).
In preparation for this hearing, staff communicated with, and received comments on,
the original staff report and draft ordinance from Lighthouse Treatment Center and
from CCAPP. This correspondence is included as Attachment 5. Staff held a meeting
with representatives from Lighthouse Treatment Center, CCAPP, and the Orange
County Recovery Collaboration (“OCRC”) on July 20, 2020 to further discuss their
comments. Based on an evaluation of the comments received and the aforementioned
stakeholder discussions, staff identified several changes to the draft ordinance that
address a number of the concerns raised by the stakeholder groups, while balancing
the City’s goal of establishing appropriate regulations for these unlicensed facilities.

PROPOSAL: The revised Draft Ordinance is provided for Planning Commission consideration
as Attachment 1 herein, with redlined corrections provided as Attachment 2. Proposes revisions
to the draft ordinance are summarized below:
1. The amount of time that unlicensed Community Care Facilities and Sober Living Homes
have to apply to the City for initial registration/permit was extended from 90 days to 180
days.
2. The draft ordinance was revised to indicate that: 1) Sober Living Homes are exempt from
the 800 foot separation requirement if an application for an Operator’s Registration or
Operator’s Permit is received within 180 days of the effective date of this ordinance; and 2)
Unlicensed Community Care Facilities are exempt from the 300 foot separation requirement
if an application for registration is received within 180 days of the effective date of the
ordinance.
3. References to the transient nature of unlicensed community care facility populations,
especially sober living home residents, and their lack of established ties to the community
have been removed.
4. The period of time where a conviction or plea of no lo contendere would serve as grounds
for denial or revocation of an Operator’s Registration or Operator’s Permit was reduced from
10 years to 5 years for an Owner/Operator and from 10 years to 3 years for a staff person.
5. References to Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous have been removed as
examples of legitimate recovery programs located off-site such that no particular program is
specified in the draft ordinance.
6. The requirement for a house manager to be on-site on a 24 hour basis was revised to provide
that a house manager must be on-site on a 24 hour basis or be available 24 hours, 7 days a
week to physically respond within 45 minutes of notice.
7. The provision for the Planning Director to add written policies and procedures to operational
standards and policies has been removed such that any changes to the list of required policies
and procedures would require amendment of the ordinance.
8. The requirement that Sober Living Homes have and implement rules regarding possession,
use, and storage of prescription medications has been removed.
The definitions, ministerial nature of the regulatory registration or permit, and tables indicating
where uses subject to the ordinance would be permitted, conditionally permitted, and/or prohibited
remain the same in the revised draft ordinance.
Environmental Impact Analysis
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission recommend that the City Council determine that
this action is not subject to CEQA pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3) of 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 that term is defined in Section 15378 of the
State CEQA Guidelines. In addition, staff recommends the Planning Commission find that the
effects of the proposed ordinance and the issuance of the Operator’s Registration and Regulatory
Permit and are typical of those generated within the Class 1, Existing Facilities, Categorical
Exemption. Class 1 consists of the repair, maintenance, and/or minor alteration of existing public
or private structures or facilities, involving negligible or no expansion of use beyond that existing
at the time of this determination. The proposed ordinance would regulate and permit unlicensed
Community Care Facilities and Sober Living Homes to operate in existing single-family residential
ZONING CODE AMENDMENT NO. 2020-00170
August 3, 2020
Page 3 of 3
homes. As such, the proposed project meets the criteria for a Class 1 categorical exemption.
Pursuant to Section 15300.02 (c) and 15301 of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations, there
are no unusual circumstances in respect to the proposed project for which staff would anticipate a
significant effect on the environment and, therefore, the proposed project is categorically exempt
from the provisions of CEQA.
CONCLUSION: The proposed ordinance has been revised based on stakeholder correspondence
received prior to this public hearing. The proposed ordinance would provide reasonable standards
and regulations for unlicensed Community Care Facilities and Sober Living Homes. The proposed
regulations and standards would provide for a quality living environment for the residents of such
facilities while preserving the residential characteristics of surrounding neighborhood in which
such facilities are located. In addition, the proposed amendment furthers the purpose of the Federal
Fair Housing Act Amendments (“FHAA”), the California Fair Employment Housing Act
(“FEHA”) and California’s Lanterman Act by allowing these facilities to be located in residential
neighborhoods, providing the disabled with the opportunity to enjoy a dwelling in a manner similar
to that enjoyed by the non-disabled. When operated responsibly, unlicensed community care
facilities and sober living homes provide a societal benefit by providing the disabled the
opportunity to live in residential neighborhood, as well as providing support for individuals
attempting to overcome their drug and alcohol addictions. As such, staff recommends that the
Planning Commission, by motion, recommend approval of the proposed Zoning Code Amendment
to the City Council.

(ZONING CODE AMENDMENT NO. 2020-00170)
(DEV2020-00002)
WHEREAS, under the California Constitution, Article XI, Section 7, the City of Anaheim
(“City”) is granted broad police powers to preserve public health and safety and general welfare
of their residents; and
WHEREAS, in exercising its police power, the City may act to restrict residential zones to
specified types of uses deemed compatible with such areas to promote public health, safety and
general welfare; and
WHEREAS, the Federal Fair Housing Act Amendments (“FHAA”) and the California Fair
Employment Housing Act (“FEHA”) prohibits pubic agencies from making land use decisions or
policies that exclude or otherwise discriminate against persons with disabilities or other protected
classes; and
ATTACHMENT NO. 1
2
WHEREAS, a core purpose of the FHAA, FEHA and California’s Lanterman Act is to
provide a broader range of housing opportunities to the disabled, to free the disabled from
institutional style living to the extent possible, and to ensure that disabled persons have the
opportunity to live in normal residential surroundings and use and enjoy a dwelling in a manner
similar to the way a dwelling is enjoyed by the non-disabled; and
WHEREAS, to fulfill this purpose the FHAA and FEHA also require that the City provide
reasonable accommodation to its zoning ordinances if such accommodation is necessary to afford
a disabled person an equal opportunity to use and enjoy a dwelling; and
WHEREAS, cities are required to treat state licensed community care facilities and
alcoholism or drug abuse recovery or treatment facilities serving six or fewer residents as a
residential use; and
WHEREAS, any facility which provides non-medical alcoholism or drug abuse recovery,
treatment or detoxification services must obtain a license from the California Department of
Alcohol and Drug Programs (“ADP”). Health and Safety Code Section 11834.30 provides that no
person “shall operate, establish, manage, conduct, or maintain an alcoholism or drug abuse
recovery or treatment facility to provide recovery, treatment or detoxification services” without
first obtaining an ADP license; and
WHEREAS, in enacting this Ordinance the City Council desires to strike a balance
between the City’s and residents’ interest in preserving the residential characterist ics of residential
neighborhoods and providing opportunities for the disabled to reside in residential zones that are
enjoyed by the non-disabled; and
WHEREAS, over the past several years, cities within Orange County and the State have
seen an increase in the number of homes in residential neighborhoods being utilized as state
licensed and non-state licensed community care facilities, and state-licensed alcoholism or drug
recovery or treatment facilities and non-state licensed alcoholism or drug recovery or treatment
facilities hereinafter “Sober Living Homes”). This increase in such facilities has become a rising
concern in many cities and counties in the State, and as such, there have been numerous state
attempts at legislative fixes that have failed; and
WHEREAS, according to the California Consortium of Addiction Programs and
Professionals (CCAPP), Sober Living Homes are intended to provide alcohol and drug-free
support in a comfortable living environment for the maintenance of a clean and sober lifestyle ; and
WHEREAS , the City receives continuous resident complaints regarding these facilities
located within residential neighborhoods, expressing concerns such as overcrowding , parking,
noise, and loitering; and
WHEREAS, records from the State of Californ ia Department of Social Services (“DSS”)
from May 28, 2020 show that the City is home to more than 100 state licensed community care
facilities in the category of adult residential facility, which are typically located within single-
family residential neighborhoods; and
WHEREAS, records from the State of California Department of Health Care Services
(“DHCS”) from May 28, 2020 show that the City is home to 15 licensed and/or certified
3
alcoholism and drug abuse recovery or treatment facilities, providing 205 beds. The City is one of
10 cities in Orange County that has 10 or more facilities within its jurisdiction, and one of four
cities in Orange County that provides more than 200 beds within its jurisdiction; and
WHEREAS, the Orange County Sheriff Department (“OCSD”) administers Orange
County Adult Alcohol & Drug Sober Living Facilities Certification Program, which is a voluntary
certification program for sober living homes without a state license. The purpose of this program
is to provide access to quality residential facilities for the persons in need of drug and alcohol free
recovery environments and to promote public safety. As of May 27 , 2020, there are 16 sober living
homes in Orange County that is certified by the OCSD, providing 215 beds. Among these, six
facilities are located in the City, providing 62 beds. Because this is a voluntary program, it is
unlikely to represent all sober living homes operating County-wide; and
WHEREAS, there is no required licensing, certification, or registration for non-state
licensed community care facilities or Sober Living Homes, thus, the exact number of these
facilities within the City is unknown; and
WHEREAS, overconcentration of these facilities in residential neighborhoods may lead to
the institutionalization and commercialization of such neighborhoods; and
WHEREAS, th is Ordinance proposes to classify non-state licensed community care
facilities and Sober Living Homes with six or fewer persons as residential use, provide a process
whereby such facilities may locate in the residential neighborhoods, and establish certain standards
to ensure quality living environment for the residents of such facilities while preserving the
residential characteristics of surrounding neighborhood in which such facilities are located; and
WHEREAS, this Ordinance will also provide a mechanism for such facilities to seek
additional accommodation upon making a showing, as required by state and federal law, that such
additional accommodat ion is reasonably necessary to afford the disabled the right to use and enjoy
a dwelling in a manner similar to that enjoyed by the non-disabled; and
WHEREAS, permitting six or fewer residents in these facilities home and establishing
distance requirements is reasonable and non-discriminatory because: (1) the State legislature in
establishing state licensed community care and alcoholism or drug abuse recovery or treatment
facilities as a residential use, including group homes serving recovering addicts, found that six
residents was a sufficient number to provide the supportive living environment that experts agree
is beneficial to recovery; (2) a 1997 study by the American Planning Association recommended
that residential care facilities should not be concentrated in a single neighborhood or block and
that if they were to locate next to another or be placed on the same block, the ability of the residents
of such facilities to be normalized into the community would be compromised; and (3) limiting
the number of recovering addicts that can be placed in a single-family home enhances the potential
for their recovery; and
WHEREAS, housing inordinately large numbers of unrelated adults in a single-family
home or congregating Sober Living Homes in close proximity to each other does not provide the
disabled with an opportunity to “live in normal residential surroundings,” but rather places them
into living environments bearing more in common with the types of institutional, campus, and/or
dormitory living that the FEHA and FHAA were designed to provide relief from for the disabled,
4
and which no reasonable person could contend provides a life in a normal residential surrounding;
and
WHEREAS, non-state licensed community care facilities, especially Sober Living Homes,
often do not function as a single housekeeping unit nor do they fit the City’s zoning definition of
a single housekeeping unit, as proposed, for the following reasons: (1) the residents generally do
not have established ties to each other when they move in; (2) the residents have little to no say
about who lives or doesn’t live in the home; (3) the residents do not generally share expenses; (4)
the residents are often responsible for their own food, laundry and phone; (5) when residents
disobey house rules they are often simply removed from the house; (6) there is a third party
property manager (i.e. house manager) that oversees the operation of the facility; and
WHEREAS, because of the residents’ independence from each other, non-state licensed
community care facilities, especially sober living homes, may present problems not typically
associated with more traditional single-family uses, including disproportionate numbers of cars
associated with the facility, which may cause parking problems in the neighborhood; and
WHEREAS, many residential neighborhoods in the City currently experiences parking
issues, and the City has seen increased concerns from the residents, business owners and others in
the community regarding overflow parking into single-family neighborhoods throughout the City.
This is evident in increase in the number of petitions filed for Residential Permit Parking Program
and the recent ly proposed Zoning Code amendment related to residential parking standards. As
such, a requirement for all resident vehicles associated with non-state licensed community care
facilities and sober living homes to be parked on-site is appropriate; and
WHEREAS, a 300-foot distance requirement for non-state licensed community care
facilities is appropriate as it is consistent with the State Law that regulates state licensed
community care facilities, which states that there is an overconcentration of stat e licensed facilities
if such facilities are separated by a distance of 300 feet or less; and
WHEREAS, a 800-foot distance requirement for sober living homes is appropriate, as it is
consistent with an average block length of a typical residential neighborhood in the City and
therefore provides a reasonable market for the purchase and operation of a Sober Living Home in
the City while preventing overconcentration of Sober Living Homes; and
WHEREAS, even with the distance requirements, non-state licensed community care
facilities and sober living homes are receiving preferential treatment in that non-disabled
individuals in a similar living situation (i.e. boarding house) cannot reside in single family
residential zones; and
WHEREAS, notwithstanding the above, the City Council recognizes that when operated
responsibly, non-state licensed community care facilities and Sober Living Homes provide a
societal benefit by providing the disabled the opportunity to live in residential neighborhoods, as
well as providing support for individuals attempting to overcome their drug and alcohol addictions;
and
WHEREAS, without some regulation, it is not feasible to ensure that the individuals
entering into non-state licensed community care facilities and Sober Living Homes are disabled
individuals and entitled to reasonable accommodation under local and state law; that such facilities
5
are operated professionally to minimize impacts to the surrounding neighborhood; that the
secondary impacts from over concentration of such facilities in a neighborhood are lessened; and ,
that residents, who are especially vulnerable to becoming homeless upon eviction, are provided
information regarding available local housing resources prior to eviction; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code
Section 21000 et seq.; herein referred to as “CEQA”) and 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”),
the City is the “lead agency” for the preparation and consideration of environmental documents
for this ordinance; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Anaheim, at its August 3, 2020 public
hearing, recommended, by motion, that the City Council determine that this ordinance is not
subject to CEQA pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3) of 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 that term is defined in Section 15378 of the State CEQA
Guidelines. The Planning Commission further found that the impact to the existing facilities would
be limited to issuance and/or denial of a ministerial permit and potential improvements to the
existing single-family home, which would make the o rdinance categorically exempt under Section
15301 of the CEQA guidelines; and
WHEREAS, the City Council hereby finds and determines that this ordinance is not subject
to CEQA pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3) of 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 that term is defined in Section 15378 of the State CEQA
Guidelines. The City Council further finds that the impact to the existing facilities would be limited
to issuance and/or denial of a ministerial permit and potential improvements to the existing single-
family home, which would make the ordinance categorically exempt under Section 15301 of the
CEQA guidelines ; and
WHE REAS, the City Council determines that this ordinance is a matter of City-wide
importance and necessary for the preservation and protection of the public peace, health, safety
and/or welfare of the community and is a valid exercise of the local police power and in accord
with the public purposes and provisions of applicable State and local laws and requirements.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM DOES
ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. That Table 4-A (Primary Uses: Single-Family Residential Zones) of Chapter
18.04 (Single-Family Residential Zones) of Title 18 (Zoning) of the Anaheim Municipal Code be,

(ZONING CODE AMENDMENT NO. 2020-00170)
(DEV2020-00002)
WHEREAS, under the California Constitution, Article XI, Section 7, the City of Anaheim
(“City”) is granted broad police powers to preserve public health and safety and general welfare
of their residents; and
WHEREAS, in exercising its police power, the City may act to restrict residential zones to
specified types of uses deemed compatible with such areas to promote public health, safety and
general welfare; and
WHEREAS, the Federal Fair Housing Act Amendments (“FHAA”) and the California Fair
Employment Housing Act (“FEHA”) prohibits pubic agencies from making land use decisions or
policies that exclude or otherwise discriminate against persons with disabilities or other protected
classes; and
ATTACHMENT NO. 2
2
WHEREAS, a core purpose of the FHAA, FEHA and California’s Lanterman Act is to
provide a broader range of housing opportunities to the disabled, to free the disabled from
institutional style living to the extent possible, and to ensure that disabled persons have the
opportunity to live in normal residential surroundings and use and enjoy a dwelling in a manner
similar to the way a dwelling is enjoyed by the non-disabled; and
WHEREAS, to fulfill this purpose the FHAA and FEHA also require that the City provide
reasonable accommodation to its zoning ordinances if such accommodation is necessary to afford
a disabled person an equal opportunity to use and enjoy a dwelling; and
WHEREAS, cities are required to treat state licensed community care facilities and
alcoholism or drug abuse recovery or treatment facilities serving six or fewer residents as a
residential use; and
WHEREAS, any facility which provides non-medical alcoholism or drug abuse recovery,
treatment or detoxification services must obtain a license from the California Department of
Alcohol and Drug Programs (“ADP”). Health and Safety Code Section 11834.30 provides that no
person “shall operate, establish, manage, conduct, or maintain an alcoholism or drug abuse
recovery or treatment facility to provide recovery, treatment or detoxification services” without
first obtaining an ADP license; and
WHEREAS, in ena cting this Ordinance the City Council desires to strike a balance
between the City’s and residents’ interest in preserving the residential characteristics of residential
neighborhoods and providing opportunities for the disabled to reside in residential zones that are
enjoyed by the non-disabled; and
WHEREAS, over the past several years, cities within Orange County and the State have
seen an increase in the number of homes in residential neighborhoods being utilized as state
licensed and non-state licensed community care facilities, and state-licensed alcoholism or drug
recovery or treatment facilities and non-state licensed alcoholism or drug recovery or treatment
facilities hereinafter “Sober Living Homes”). This increase in such facilities has become a rising
concern in many cities and counties in the State, and as such, there have been numerous state
attempts at legislative fixes that have failed; and
WHEREAS, according to the California Consortium of Addiction Programs and
Professionals (CCAPP), Sober Living Homes are intended to provide alcohol and drug-free
support in a comfortable living environment for the maintenance of a clean and sober lifestyle; and
WHEREAS , the City receives continuous resident complaints rega rding these facilities
located within residential neighborhoods, expressing concerns such as overcrowding , parking,
noise, and loitering; and
WHEREAS, records from the State of California Department of Social Services (“DSS”)
from May 28, 2020 show that the City is home to more than 100 state licensed community care
facilities in the category of adult residential facility, which are typically located within single-
family residential neighborhoods; and
3
WHEREAS, records from the State of California Department of Health Care Services
(“DHCS”) from May 28, 2020 show that the City is home to 15 licensed and/or certified
alcoholism and drug abuse recovery or treatment facilities, providing 205 beds. The City is one of
10 cities in Orange County that has 10 or more facilities within its jurisdiction, and one of four
cities in Orange County that provides more than 200 beds within its jurisdiction; and
WHEREAS, the Orange County Sheriff Department (“OCSD”) administers Orange
County Adult Alcohol & Drug Sober Living Facilities Certification Program, which is a voluntary
certification program for sober living homes without a state license. The purpose of this program
is to provide access to quality residential facilities for the persons in need of drug and alcohol free
recovery environments and to promote public safety. As of May 27 , 2020, there are 16 sober living
homes in Orange County that is certified by the OCSD, providing 215 beds. Among these, six
facilities are located in the City, providing 62 beds. Because this is a voluntary program, it is
unlikely to represent all sober living homes operating County-wide; and
WHEREAS, there is no required licensing, certification, or registration for non-state
licensed community care facilities or Sober Living Homes, thus, the exact number of these
facilities within the City is unknown; and
WHEREAS, overconcentration of these facilities in residential neighborhoods may lead to
the institutionalization and commercialization of such neighborhoods; and
WHEREAS, this Ordinance proposes to classify non-state licensed community care
facilities and Sober Living Homes with six or fewer persons as residential use, provide a process
whereby such facilities may locate in the residential neighborhoods, and establish certain standards
to ensure quality living environment for the residents of such facilities while preserving the
residential characteristics of surrounding neighborhood in which such facilities are located; and
WHEREAS, this Ordinance will also provide a mechanism for such facilities to seek
additional accommodation upon making a showing, as required by state and federal law, that such
additional accommodation is reasonably necessary to afford the disabled the right to use and
enjoy a dwelling in a manner similar to that enjoyed by the non-disabled; and
WHEREAS, permitting six or fewer residents in these facilities home and establishing
distance requirements is reasonable and non-discriminatory because: (1) the State legislature in
establishing state licensed community care and alcoholism or drug abuse recovery or treatment
facilities as a residential use, including group homes serving recovering addicts, found that six
residents was a sufficient number to provide the supportive living environment that experts agree
is beneficial to recovery; (2) a 1997 study by the American Planning Association recommended
that residential care facilities should not be concentrated in a single neighborhood or block and
that if they were to locate next to another or be placed on the same block, the ability of the residents
of such facilities to be normalized into the community would be compromised; and (3) limiting
the number of recovering addicts that can be placed in a single-family home enhances the potential
for their recovery; and
WHEREAS, housing inordinately large numbers of unrelated adults in a single-family
home or congregating Sober Living Homes in close proximity to each other does not provide the
disabled with an opportunity to “live in normal residential su rroundings,” but rather places them
into living environments bearing more in common with the types of institutional, campus, and/or
4
dormitory living that the FEHA and FHAA were designed to provide relief from for the disabled,
and which no reasonable person could contend provides a life in a normal residential surrounding;
and
WHEREAS, non-state licensed community care facilities, especially Sober Living Homes,
often do not function as a single housekeeping unit nor do they fit the City’s zoning defin ition of
a single housekeeping unit, as proposed, for the following reasons: (1) the residents generally do
not have established ties to each other when they move in; (2) the residents have little to no say
about who lives or doesn’t live in the home; (3) the residents do not generally share expenses; (4)
the residents are often responsible for their own food, laundry and phone; (5) when residents
disobey house rules they are often simply removed from the house; (6) there is a third party
property manager (i.e. house manager) that oversees the operation of the facility; and
WHEREAS, because of the residents’ independence from each other, non-state licensed
community care facilities, especially sober living homes, may present problems not typically
associated with more traditional single -family uses, including disproportionate numbers of cars
associated with the facility, which may cause parking problems in the neighborhood; and
WHEREAS, many residential neighborhoods in the City currently experiences parking
issues, and the City has seen increased concerns from the residents, business owners and others in
the community regarding overflow parking into single-family neighborhoods throughout the City.
This is evident in increase in the number of petitions filed for Residential Permit Parking Program
and the recent ly proposed Zoning Code amendment related to residential parking standards. As
such, a requirement for all resident vehicles associated with non-state licensed community care
facilities and sober living homes to be parked on-site is appropriate; and
WHEREAS, a 300-foot distance requirement for non-state licensed community care
facilities is appropriate as it is consistent with the State Law that regulates state licensed
community care facilities, which states that there is an overconcentration of state licensed facilities
if such facilities are separated by a distance of 300 feet or less; and
WHEREAS, a 800-foot distance requirement for sober living homes is appropriate, as it is
consistent with an average block length of a typical residential neighborhood in the City and
therefore provides a reasonable market for the purchase and operatio n of a Sober Living Home in
the City while preventing overconcentration of Sober Living Homes; and
WHEREAS, even with the distance requirements, non-state licensed community care
facilities and sober living homes are receiving preferential treatment in that non-disabled
individuals in a similar living situation (i.e. boarding house) cannot reside in single family
residential zones; and
WHEREAS, notwithstanding the above, the City Council recognizes that when operated
responsibly, non-state licensed community care facilities and Sober Living Homes provide a
societal benefit by providing the disabled the opportunity to live in residential neighborhoods, as
well as providing support for individuals attempting to overcome their drug and alcohol addictions;
and
WHEREAS, without some regulation, it is not feasible to ensure that the individuals
entering into non-state licensed community care facilities and Sober Living Homes are disabled
5
individuals and entitled to reasonable accommodation under local and state law; that such facilities
are operated professionally to minimize impacts to the surrounding neighborhood; that the
secondary impacts from over concentration of such facilities in a neighborhood are lessened; and,
that residents, who are especially vulnerable to becoming homeless upon eviction, are provided
information regarding available local housing resources prior to eviction; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code
Section 21000 et seq.; herein referred to as “CEQA”) and 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”),
the City is the “lead agency” for the preparation and consideration of environmental documents
for this ordinance; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Anaheim, at its August 3, 2020 public
hearing, recommended, by motion, that the City Council determine that this ordinance is not
subject to CEQA pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3) of 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 that term is defined in Section 15378 of the State CEQA
Guidelines. The Planning Commission further found that the impact to the existing facilities would
be limited to issuance and/or denial of a ministerial permit and potential improvements to the
existing single-family home, which would make the ordinance categorically exempt under Section
15301 of the CEQA guidelines; and
WHEREAS, the City Council hereby finds and determines that this ordinance is not subject
to CEQA pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3) of 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 that term is defined in Section 15378 of the State CEQA
Guidelines. The City Council further finds that the impact to the existing facilities would be limited
to issuance and/or denial of a ministerial permit and potential improvements to the existing single-
family home, which would make the ordinance categorically exempt under Section 15301 of the
CEQA guidelines; and
WHEREAS, the City Council determines that this ordinance is a matter of City-wide
importance and necessary for the preservation and protection of the public peace, health, safety
and/or welfare of the community and is a valid exercise of the local police power and in accord
with the public purposes and provisions of applicable State and local laws and requirements.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM DOES
ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. That Table 4-A (Primary Uses: Single-Family Residential Zones) of Chapter
18.04 (Single-Family Residential Zones) of Title 18 (Zoning) of the Anaheim Municipal Code be,

PLANNING AND BUILDING DEPARTMENT
DATE: JULY 6, 2020
SUBJECT: ZONING CODE AMENDMENT NO. 2020-00170
LOCATION: Citywide
APPLICANT: City of Anaheim
REQUEST: This is a City-initiated amendment to Title 18 (Zoning) of the Anaheim
Municipal Code (Code) to provide standards and regulations for unlicensed
community care facilities and sober living homes.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission, by
motion, recommend that the City Council determine that the proposed draft ordinance
(Attachment 1) is not subject to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) per
CEQA Guidelines Sections 15060 (c)(2), 15060(c)(3), and 15301; and, that the City
Council adopt the proposed ordinance.
BACKGROUND: In recent years, many California (State) cities and counties have
seen an increase in the number of residential care facilities in single-family residential
neig hborhoods. State law requires that homes providing care and supervision and/or
detoxification services obtain and maintain licenses with appropriate State agencies.
•The State Department of Social Services (DSS) licenses and regulates
community care facilities, which includes residential care facilities providing
nonmedical care and supervision for children or adults in need of personal
services.
•The State Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) licenses and regulates
alcoholism or drug abuse recovery or treatment facilities that provide
nonmedical services such as detoxification and counseling sessions to adults
who are recovering from problems related to alcohol or other drug misuse or
abuse.
In contrast, t he State does not regulate or license other supportive living facilities that
do not provide any services or treatments. Generally, there are two main types of
unlicensed community care facilities.
•Group homes are residential homes that provide a supportive living
environment for persons considered as handicapped under State or federal
law.
•Sober living homes are unlicensed facilities, which house persons who are
recovering from an alcohol or drug addiction. Such unlicensed facilities only
provide residential accommodation, and cannot provide any services or
treatments (i.e. counseling, detoxification).

ZONING CODE AMENDMENT NO. 2020-00170
July 6 , 2020
Page 2 of 7
In Orange County, there are two voluntary non-State certification programs available for sober
living homes:
• Adult Alcohol & Drug Sober Living Facilities Certification program by Orange County
Sheriff’s Department (OCSD).
• Recovery Residence Certification program by California Consortium of Addiction
Programs and Professionals (CCAPP).
The State law requires cities and counties to treat State licensed community care facilities and
alcoholism or drug abuse recovery or treatment facilities serving six or fewer disabled residents as
a single-family residential use, and allow them by right in residential districts. State law allows
cities and counties to require a conditional use permit for licensed facilities with over six residents.
In contrast, there is no specific State law that requir es cities and counties to treat unlicensed
facilities that do not provide services or treatments, regardless of the number of residents, as a
single-family residential use. However, cities and counties are required to make reasonable
accommodations in zoning laws when such accommodation is reasonably necessary to provide the
disabled persons the opportunity to enjoy a residential dwelling.
These requirements are based on the Federal Fair Housing Act Amendments (“FHAA”) and the
California Fair Employment Housing Act (“FEHA”), which prohibits pubic agencies from making
land use decisions or policies that exclude or otherwise discriminate against persons with
disabilities or other protected classes. In addition, the Lanterman Developmental Disabilities
Services Act (“Lanterman Act”) outlines rights of individuals with developmental disabilities and
their families to get services and supports they need to live like people without such disabilities.
The core purpose of the FHAA, FEHA and Lanterman Act is to provide a broader range of housing
opportunities to the disabled, to free the disabled from institutional style living to the extent
possible and to ensure that disabled persons have the opportunity to live in normal residential
surroundings, and to use and enjoy a dwelling in a manner similar to the way a dwelling is enjoyed
by the non-disabled.
In 2014, the Costa Mesa City Council adopted a zoning ordinance to regulate “unlicensed” group
homes serving six or fewer persons, including sober living homes. Per the adopted ordinance,
Costa Mesa requires a ministerial permit for all unlicensed facilities, and requires such facilities to
comply with a number of operational standards. Some of key standards include requiring a 24-
hour house manager, parking controls, and a separation requirement of 650 feet for sober living
homes. In addition, all applicants are required to complete a thorough background check. After its
adoption, a number of sober living home operators and industry trade groups filed several lawsuits
against the City of Costa Mesa, arguing that such ordinance was discriminatory and in violation
of the FHAA and FEHA. In recent months, the City of Costa Mesa received a number of favorable
rulings in these lawsuits, which includes the most recent ruling by the United States Ninth Circuit
Court of Appeals who reaffirmed the validity of City of Costa Mesa’s ordinance. In light of these
recent rulings, in September 2019, the County of Orange Board of Supervisors adopted an
ordinance to regulate group homes within single-family residential zones in a similar manner as
Costa Mesa. The County subsequently updated the ordinance in December 2019 to provide certain
clarifications and increased the separation requirement for sober living homes from 650 feet to
1,000 feet based on the rural nature of properties under the County’s jurisdiction.
ZONING CODE AMENDMENT NO. 2020-00170
July 6 , 2020
Page 3 of 7
The Anaheim Municipal Code (Code) currently classifies all residential facilities with six or fewer
disabled persons as a “Residential Care Facility,” regardless of such facility’s licensing status. The
Code identifies these facilities as a residential use that does not require a discretionary permit
within the City’s single-family residential zones. The Code requires a conditional use permit for
these uses when they accommodate seven or more disabled persons and are located within the
City’s single-family residential zones. The Code currently classifies these larger facilities as a
“Group Care Facility.”
The City is currently home to more than 100 State licensed community care facilities that house
six or fewer persons, under the State’s categories of adult residential care facility and residential
care facility for elderly. In addition, there are 15 State licensed and/or certified alcoholism and
drug abuse recovery or treatment facilities, and 6 sober living homes certified by OCSD’s
voluntary program. Additionally, staff estimates that there are approximately 154 possible
unlicensed group homes and sober living homes within the City, based on the City’s Business
License and Code Enforcement databases. However, the exact number of these facilities is
unknown, as the City does not currently have a mechanism to track unlicensed facilities.
Attachment 3 provides a map showing the locations of existing State licensed community care
facilities, including alcoholism and drug abuse recovery or treatment facilities; OCSD certified
sober living homes; and, the potential locations of unlicensed or non-certified community care
facilities and sober living homes.
Unlicensed facilities such as sober living homes typically do not function as a single housekeeping
unit because they tend to house transient population that does not have established ties to the
community and/or with each other. Residents of such facilities typically do not share household
expenses and have high independence. A t hird-party property manager typically manages these
facilities. As such, these facilities may create unique problems that are typically not associated
with traditional single-family uses, and the City has been receiving continuous resident complaints
regarding such facilities, expressing concerns such as overcrowding, parking, noise, and loitering.
Based on concerns raised by the community, Mayor Pro Tem Faessel and Council Member
Moreno, along with recent court decisions that found in favor of City of Costa Mesa’s ordinance,
the Planning Director has initiated a similar ordinance that would provide standards and
regulations for unlicensed community care facilities and sober living homes in the City.
PROPOSAL: The City proposes to amend Title 18 (Zoning) of the Anaheim Municipal Code to
provide standards and regulations for unlicensed community care facilities and sober living homes.
Also included are revisions and additio ns to the Type of Uses and Definitions, along with updates
to the existing land use tables for various Zoning districts. The following summarizes the proposed
changes:
Types of Uses, Definitions, and Land Use Tables
The Code amendment would revise Chapters 18.36 (Types of Uses) and 18.92 (Definitions) to
provide new and revised types of uses and definitions to distinguish between State licensed and
unlicensed facilities. In summary, the existing Type of Uses for residential care facilities, which
include “Residential Care Facility” and “Group Care Facility,” would be deleted and replaced with
new terms.
ZONING CODE AMENDMENT NO. 2020-00170
July 6 , 2020
Page 4 of 7
• State licensed residential facilities would be either “Alcoholism or Drug Abuse Recovery
or Treatment Facility,” “Community Care Facility – Licensed,” or “Senior Living
Facility.”
• Unlicensed facilities would be either “Community Care Facility – Unlicensed” or “Sober
Living Homes.”
These uses would be broken down into two categories of “Small” or “Large.” Small facilities are
limited to six or fewer residents and large facilities would have seven or more residents. Other
changes include revised definitions for “Convalescent & Rest Homes,” “Boarding House” and
“Single Housekeeping Unit,” along with other minor clarifications. In addition, the amendment
would modify various chapters of the Zoning Code, including certain specific plans, to update the
existing land use tables to reflect the changes to the Type of Uses described above. Attachment 4
provides a more detailed summary of the proposed changes to the Type of Uses and Definitions
Chapters.
Proposed Permitting Process
The proposed regulations would continue to permit unlicensed Community Care Facilities and
Sober Living Homes with six or fewer residents to locate in residential zones. However, all
unlicensed Community Care Facilities and Sober Living Homes, not operated as a Single
Housekeeping Unit, would be required to obtain a Regulatory Permit prior to commencing
operations. Such permit would be ministerial in nature and issued by the Planning & Building
Department Director, if the facility can demonstrate compliance with the City’s regulations. The
City would continue to require a conditional use permit for facilities with seven or more residents,
where allowed.
There are two types of Regulatory Permit s proposed:
• An Operator’s Registration would be required for Sober Living Homes with OCSD
certification.
• An Operator’s Permit would be required for all other unlicensed Community Care
Facilities and Sober Living Homes.
Staff is proposing a separate permit type for Sober Living Homes with OCSD certification because
OCSD’s certification process already includes many of similar review standards as the ones
proposed for the City’s Operator’s Permit. As such, requiring Sober Living Homes with OCSD’s
certification to go through another permit process that is similar to the OCSD’s certification
program would be unwarranted. For instance, an Operator’s Permit would require a background
check for the owner/operator and all employees of the facility from the City’s Police Department;
an Operator’s Registration would not require a background permit because the applicant would
have already completed one through OCSD certification.
Staff would use certain criteria to deny, and if already issued, revoke Operator’s Registrations and
Permits . These include provision of false information, acceptance of residents who are not
handicapped, repeated violations of applicable regulations and standards, incompliance with the
applicable separation requirement (further described under Proposed Operational Standards
section below), and failure to remove residents who violates house rules and policies (i.e. alcohol
and illegal drug use). In addition to these criteria, the City would also deny or revoke an Operator’s
Permit if City staff were to determine that the owner/operator or staff members of the facility were
ZONING CODE AMENDMENT NO. 2020-00170
July 6 , 2020
Page 5 of 7
in violation of the established conditions related to past criminal convictions, violations,
employment termination for specific cause, and parole or formal probation status. This criterion
does not apply to the Operator’s Registration, as OCSD is the entity that conducts the background
check with its own conditions related to past criminal and employment history.
Both permits would expire automatically after six months of inactivity and are not transferrable to
any other person, entity or facility. Additionally, all existing unlicensed facilities would be
required to apply for the applicable permit within 90 days of the effective date of the Ordinance,
and must comply with all provisions of the Code within one year from the effective date of the
proposed o rdinance. The City may grant a one-year extension based on an existing lease term
and/or financial hardship.
With the proposed permit process, the City would be able to track the number of unlicensed
facilities. Attachment 5 provides a table summarizing the proposed Regulatory Permit processes
for unlicensed Community Care Facilities and Sober Living Homes. Attachment 6 shows the
proposed draft application forms with submittal requirement s.
Proposed Operational Standards
All unlicensed Community Care Facilities and Sober Living Homes, regardless of number of
residents, would be required to comply with various operational standards. Facilities may seek
relief from the strict application of these operational standards by submitting a request setting forth
specific reasons as to why accommodation over and above is necessary under State and Federal
laws, pursuant to Section 18.62.090 of the Zoning Code (Request for Reasonable
Accommodation). A table with a more detailed summary of the proposed operational standards for
unlicensed Community Care Facilities and Sober Living Homes is Attachment 7.
To ensure orderly operation, a house manager must be on site on a 24-hour basis, and
owners/operators of these facilities must certify under penalty of perjury that they will implement
written procedures and/or policies regarding intake procedures, facility rules and regulations, good
neighbor policy and eviction/involuntary termination procedure. In addition, all owners/operators
of Sober Living Homes must also certify under penalty of perjury that they will implement an
active off-site program participation policy, visitation policy, and controlled substance policy.
The proposed operational standards also include provisions related to parking and separation
requirements. Over the years, the City has seen increased concerns from the residents regarding
overflow parking into residential neighborhoods, which is evident in an increase in the number of
petitions filed for Residential Permit Parking Program and the recently proposed Zoning Code
amendment related to residential parking standards. In order to reduce potential impact of the
unlicensed Community Care Facilities and Sober Living Homes on parking, all vehicles associated
with these facilities must be operable and parked on-site, and all driveways, garages and on-site
parking areas must be available for vehicle parking.
S ince overconcentration of these facilities may lead to institutionalization and commercialization
of residential neighborhoods, all unlicensed facilities would be subject to certain separation
requirements. For unlice nsed Community Care Facilities, staff is proposing a 300-foot separation
requirement. This requirement would be consistent with State Law regulations for State-licensed
community care facilities, which consider State licensed facilities to be over -concentr ated if there
ZONING CODE AMENDMENT NO. 2020-00170
July 6 , 2020
Page 6 of 7
is less than 300-foot separation between facilities. For Sober Living Homes, a separation of 800
feet is proposed. Staff is proposing a larger separation because Sober Living Homes may present
additional problems beyond those typically associated with unlicensed Community Care Facilities
due to their unique nature of providing housing to a highly independent and transient population.
Staff believes an 800-foot distance requirement for Sober Living Homes is appropriate as it is
consistent with an average block length of a typical residential neighborhood in the City and
therefore provides a reasonable market for the purchase/lease and operation of a Sober Living
Home in the City while preventing overconcentration of sober living homes.
Orange County Recovery Collaboration
The Orange County Recovery Collaboration (OCRC) is a recently formed coalition comprised of
a number of public and private agencies and industry experts in Orange County region, with a goal
of providing education, prevention, resources and services on substance addiction. Sandra Sagert,
the City Code Enforcement Manager and the City’s Homeless Liaison, serves as the City’s liaison
to this group. Sandra has been in regular communications with OCRC and helped coordinate a
meeting between City staff working on this Code amendment, OCRC and CCAPP, on March 3,
2020. At this meeting, OCRC and CCAPP emphasized the uniqueness of Sober Living Homes,
the important role they play in assisting individuals in their recovery process, and explained the
CCAPP’s voluntary certification program. In addition, they expressed concerns regarding City of
Costa Mesa’s ordinance and its legal validity, and urged the City to utilize CCAPP’s certification
program. Following the meeting, OCRC submitted a letter (Attachment 8), which recommends
that the City require CCAPP certification of Sober Living Homes and not impose any separation
requirement between facilities.
Staff recognizes that CCAPP’s certification program provides guidelines for Sober Living Homes
that promotes quality and ethical standards. However, these guidelines are not mandates and as
CCAPP is the issuing entity, the City can not take an effective enforce ment action to ensure
compliance. As such, requiring a CCAPP certification instead of a City issued permit would not
allow the City to regulate Sober Living Homes. In addition, staff determined that a separation
requirement would be necessary to prevent overconcentration, and the proposed 800-foot
separation is reasonable, as previously discussed.
Environmental Impact Analysis
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission recommend that the City Council determine that
this action is not subject to CEQA pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3) of 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 that term is defined in Section 15378 of the
State CEQA Guidelines. In add ition, staff recommends the Planning Commission find that the
effects of the proposed ordinance and the issuance of the Operator’s Registration and Regulatory
Permit and are typical of those generated within the Class 1, Existing Facilities, Categorical
Exemption. Class 1 consists of the repair, maintenance, and/or minor alteration of existing public
or private structures or facilities, involving negligible or no expansion of use beyond that existing
at the time of this determination. The proposed ordinance would regulate and permit unlicensed
Community Care Facilities and Sober Living Homes to operate in existing single-family residential
homes . As such, the proposed project meets the criteria for a Class 1 categorical exemption.
Pursuant to Section 15300.02 (c) and 15301 of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations, there
are no unusual circumstances in respect to the proposed project for which staff would anticipate a
ZONING CODE AMENDMENT NO. 2020-00170
July 6 , 2020
Page 7 of 7
significant effect on the environment and, therefore, the proposed project is categorically exempt
from the provisions of CEQA.
CONCLUSION: The proposed ordinance would provide reasonable standards and regulations
for unlicensed Community Care Facilities and Sober Living Homes. The proposed regulations and
standards would ensure a quality living environment for the residents of such facilities while
preserving the residential characteristics of surrounding neighborhood in which such facilities are
located. In addition, the proposed amendment furthers the purpose of the FEHA, FHAA and the
Lanterman Act by allowing these facilities to be located in residential neighborhood, providing the
disabled with the opportunity to enjoy a dwelling in a manner similar to that enjoyed by the non-
disabled . When operated responsibly, unlicensed commu nity care facilities and sober living homes
provide a societal benefit by providing the disabled the opportunity to live in residential
neighborhood, as well as providing support for individuals attempting to overcome their drug and
alcohol addictions. As such, staff recommends that the Planning Commission, by motion,
recommend approval of the proposed Zoning Code Amendment to the City Council.

Re: Urgent request to delay hearing for ZONING CODE AMENDMENT NO. 2020-00170
Dear Chairperson Lieberman:
On behalf of the California Consortium of Addiction Programs and Professionals (CCAPP) - the largest
statewide consortium of community-based for profit and nonprofit recovery residences - we
respectfully request the Commission postpone its hearing concerning Zoning Code Amendment 2020-
00170, scheduled for tonight.
CCAPP met with city representatives concerning this ordinance and provided written suggestions for its
construction. However, our organization was not afforded the professional courtesy of viewing the draft
ordinance until it was made public Thursday, July 2 (on the eve of a three-day national holiday). In order
for CCAPP to contribute meaningful public comment and to respond to the significant, erroneous
comments made in the staff report, a delay in the hearing on this item until the commission’s next
regularly scheduled meeting is necessary. As far as we are aware, there is no urgency to this issue that
warrants a hearing where stakeholders are not allowed sufficient opportunity to respond.
Our preliminary review of the proposed ordinance leads us to the conclusion that it’s in direct conflict
with state and federal law. As far back as 2008, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, in Pacific Shores et. al.
v. City of Newport Beach, affirmed this fact in finding that the City of Newport Beach had intentionally
and unlawfully targeted recovery residences in an ordinance it passed in 2008. The proposed ordinance
on this evening’s agenda includes many of the same elements included in the Newport Beach ordinance
held to be unconstitutional.
Should a hearing be conducted on the draft ordinance, CCAPP respectfully requests that the hearing be
“informational only” and remain with the Planning Commission to provide additional time for
stakeholder input and participations. We appreciate your consideration of our request.
Sincerely,
Pete Nielsen
Chief Executive Officer

Good evening,
We really need additional time to go through this through staff report. We appreciate all the time
and effort staff has put into this. Due to the report coming out over the holiday weekend there was
just no way to get input from our members. We have a meeting this week where we will be able to
review and discuss it further. We would really hope you could pull this from tomorrow’s agenda to
give us time to do so. That way we have a chance to get valuable and helpful feedback from all
stakeholders. We would rather work together now than have it pushed over to council immediately.
We believe we can work together with you to create the best version possible that will easily pass

Department of Health Care Services (“DHCS”);
2. The nineth “WHEREAS” has a typo on line four “andnon-state”. Separate “and” and
“non”;
3. The thirteenth “WHEREAS” states Anaheim has 205 licensed and/or certified alcoholism
and drug abuse recovery or treatment facilities providing 205 beds. The City of Anaheim
is the largest city in Orange County by population with 347,000 residents. The 205 beds
represent .059% of the total population, which is miniscule;

neighborhoods may lead to the institutionalization and commercialization of such
neighborhoods…” This is a clearly false assumption inasmuch as they represent on
.059% of the total population of the City of Anaheim;
5. The twentieth “WHEREAS” cites a 1997 study by the American Planning Association to
support the proposition that “limiting the number of recovering addicts that can be placed
in a single-family home enhances the potential for their recovery…” This is a study that
is 23 years old. It is NOT prepared by a “clinically qualified” organization that has
studied addiction treatment for the last 23 years where significant strides have been made
in the treatment field. At least cite a clinically qualified study. This looks like a boot
strap argument to anyone in the addiction field. If there is a study regarding the number
of addicts living in a home, it could be cited, but it is highly doubtful;
6. The twenty-first “WHEREAS” argues that sober living homes do NOT “provide the
disabled with an opportunity to ‘live in normal residential surroundings’ but rather places
them into living environments bearing more in common with the types of institutional,
campus, and/or dormitory living that the FEHA and FHAA were designed to provide
relief from for the disabled, and which no reasonable person could contend provides a life
in a normal residential surrounding…” Sober living homes were never intended to do
that. They are intended to be a temporary intermediary step between institutions and
home. This is consistent with every clinical study and several national institutions who
proscribe a “continuity of care” curriculum for recovery, such as, ASAM, SAMHAS and
the Department of Mental Health. This “WHEREAS” misses the point completely as
written;
7. The twenty-second “WHEREAS” points out some non-essential and irrelevant
distinctions between a sober living environment and a single residential housing unit.
The first one (1) is not true. Recovering addicts generally have more significant ties than
a family. Their ties are life threatening and of utmost importance. A normal household
has ties that are not “chosen”. The second (2) one is not correct either. The “head” of the
“family” makes that decision, just as the head of the family makes that decision in a

normal household. It is really a hair-splitting distinction. The same with the third (3)
one. There is no “sharing” of costs between the parents and the children. The parents
pay for everything. Additionally, what significance is that? Number (5) is not true either.
First, most all sober living homes operate in a similar fashion as a normal household.
There are rules to follow. When broken, they are afforded additional chances to comply.
Only when a member fails to comply in a repeated manner they are asked to leave, unless
it is a cardinal transgression. This is similar to a normal household. That is why there are
so many juveniles in juvenile halls in Orange County;
8. The twenty-third “WHEREAS” is really incorrect. ALL neighborhoods have parking
problems when teenagers drive. Many households have 5 or 6 cars, depending on how
many teenagers live there;
9. The twenty-fourth “WHEREAS” is not correct. The City of Newport Beach, for
instance, has such a parking problem on the peninsula and in Newport Heights, that ALL
those areas have parking restriction and a sticker system. They have extended the
parking restriction into the Dover Shores area. This is ONE city in Orange County. It
has zero to do with sober living homes. It has everything to do with tourists and
teenagers, especially in Newport Heights by the high school. Parking problems in cities
cannot be blamed on sober lving homes. This is especially true in Anaheim, where 205
beds represent only .059% of the total population;
10. The tewenty-fifth “WHEREAS” is misleading. The distance requirements of the “State
Law” applies ONLY to mental health facilities. Again, at .059% of the total population,
there can be no valid argument related to “overconcentration” in Anaheim;
11. The twenty-sixth “WHEREAS” again is based on the fiction that there “may” be an
overconcentration of sober living homes in the City of Anaheim. Again, the City of
Anaheim is the largest city in Orange County. .059% sober living beds to population
ratio is infinitesimal. You cannot make a serious argument that this number represents a
threat of overconcentration in Anaheim. Therefore, there is no need, nor any basis, for
this legislation and the distancing requirements;
12. The twenty-seventy “WHEREAS” makes little sense at all. The recovering addict DOES
get preferential treatment to assist in their recovery. Both the State and Federal
government believe this is a socially beneficial situation and that is why they formulated
the State and Federal Fair Housing and Employment Acts and the Cal. Health and Safety
Code, sections 11830, et. seq.;
13. The twenty-eighth “WHEREAS” states reasons for this legislation, which are really
unnecessary. There are existing nuisance laws and other personal protection laws that
can be used to assure facilities are not operated in a way that constitutes a nuisance; as
stated above, there cannot be a valid argument regarding “overconcentration” of
neighborhoods; and, the City of Anaheim can provide sober living homes community
housing resource information in person or on its website.
