WHFi~EAS, the Gity Planning Commission did hold a public hearing at the Civic Center

as required by law and in accordance wi!h the provisions of the Anaheim Municipal Code, Chapter 18.03,
to hear and consider evidence for and aoainst said proposed amendment and to investigate and maice
findings and rer:ommendations in connection therewith; and that said pubiic hearing was continued from
the June 8 and June 22, 1998, Planning Commission meetings; and
WHEREAS, said Commission, after due inspection, invest~c~stion and study made by
itself and in its behalf, and after due consideration of all evidence and reports offered at said hearing,
does find an;~ determine the following facts:
1. That foilowing public notification, it was determined that tha day care center for the
children of patrons and employees is permitted in connection with the original approval of this use
permit; but that an accessory public dance hall is not permitted nor is it a conditionally permitted use in
Developrnent Area 3 of the Northeast Area Specific Plan; and, therefore, thE proposal acted on by the
Planning Commission did not include either use.
2. That the proposed use is properly one for which a conditional use permit is authorized by
Anaheim Municipal Code Section '18.110.080.050.05G2 to expand the existing video arcade (from 25 to
35 video games) in conjunction with the previously-approved bowling alley.
3. That the proposed amendment to permit 35 video games, including the imposition of
additional conditions, is reasonably necessary to protect the public peace, heaith, safety or general
welfare, and necessary to permit reasoiiable operation under the conditional use permit as originally
granted.

_,
4. That the proposed amendment will not adversely affect the adjoining land uses and the
growth and development of the area in which it is located because ihe expanded video arcade is
compatible with the surrounding commercial and industrial land uses.
5. That the size and shape of the site for the use, as amended, is adequate to allow fuil
development of the proposal in a manner not detrimental to the particular area nor to the peace, health,
safety and general weifare because the arcade operafes in conjunction with the existing bowling center
and does not involve expansion of the primary bowling use and does not increase the amount of parking
required by Code.
6. That the traffic generated by the use, as amended, wiii not impose an undue burden
upon the streets and highways designed and improved to carry the traffic in the area due to the nature of
the surrounding land uses and the varying peak hours of operation between the uses.
7. That amending this conditional use permit, under the conditions imposed, will not be
detrimental to the peace, health, safety and general welfare of the citizens of the City of Anaheim.
8. That no one indicated their presence at the pub~ic hearing in opposition; and that no
correspondence was received in opposition to this proposal. _
