ITEM NO. 2
PLANNING COMMISSION REPORT
City of Anaheim
PLANNING AND BUILDING DEPARTMENT
DATE: MAY 11, 2020
SUBJECT: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2019-06047 AND
VARIANCE NO. 2020-05137
LOCATION: 2780 West Ball Road (Janna Café)
APPLICANT/PROPERTY OWNER: The applicant is Makram Darnser and the
property owner is Chong Pak.
REQUEST: The applicant is requesting approval of a conditional use permit to
permit a smoking lounge in a commercial tenant space located less than 200 feet from
a residential zone and 1,000 feet of a school. The applicant is also requesting approval
of a variance to permit fewer parking spaces than required by the Anaheim Municipal
Code (“Code).
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve
the attached resolution, determining that this request is categorically exempt under the
California Environmental Quality Act, Section 15301, Class 1 (Existing Facilities),
and approving Conditional Use Permit No. 2019-06047 and Variance No. 2020-
05137.
BACKGROUND: The 0.57-acre project site is developed with two commercial
buildings in the “C-G” General Commercial zone. The site is designated for Medium
Density Residential land uses by the General Plan. Surrounding land uses include
apartment complexes to the east and south, a commercial retail center to the west, and
an apartment complex and office building to the north across Ball Road. This item was
continued from the March 16, 2020 and March 30, 2020 meetings because these
meetings were cancelled due to concerns regarding COVID 19 issues. This item was
also continued from the April 13, 2020 meeting to address concerns from the
commission relating to smoking impacts on the adjacent neighbors and lack of
parking.
PROPOSAL: The applicant proposes to establish an indoor smoking lounge within
an existing 1,100 square foot tenant space and add a 330 square foot outdoor smoking
patio in front of the tenant space (facing Ball Road). The adjacent 1,065 square foot
tenant space to the east is currently occupied with a restaurant and a legally non-
conforming outdoor smoking lounge. An existing 2,188 square foot private spa
business is located on the west end of the property. The proposed hours of operation
for the proposed indoor/outdoor smoking lounge are from 10:00 a.m. to 1:45 a.m. The
smoking lounge would include an indoor and outdoor patio smoking lounge area,
counter area, restroom, and storage room.

The same business owner operates the adjacent restaurant, Janna Café located at 2778 West Ball
Road, in conjunction with a non-conforming outdoor smoking lounge at the east end of the restaurant.
The existing restaurant will continue to operate from 10:00 a.m. to 1:45 a.m. The applicant proposes
to convert and reduce the legally non-conforming 990 square foot outdoor smoking lounge,
associated with the existing restaurant, into outdoor dining only. This results in a 330 square foot
outdoor dining area exclusively for the restaurant. The hours of operation for the outdoor dining are
from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m.
No expansion of the building is proposed; however, a building permit will be required to repair
damages from a fire in the westerly tenant space where the indoor smoking lounge is proposed. No
sales or consumption of alcoholic beverages or food service is proposed within the indoor smoking
lounge.
ANALYSIS: The Code requires that specific findings be made prior to approval of a conditional use
permit and parking variance. The complete findings are included in the attached draft resolution. A
summary of the project’s compliance with the required findings is provided below.
Conditional Use Permit: Smoking lounges are allowed in the C-G zone subject to the approval of a
conditional use permit, if located within 200 feet of a residential zone or 1,000 feet of a school, to
ensure compatibility with the surrounding uses. When located beyond these separation distances,
smoking lounges may be permitted through an administrative permit approved by staff. The nearest
residentially-zoned properties are located approximately 65 feet to the south and 55 feet to the east of
the outdoor hookah space. A public school is located 425 feet from the hookah space. Therefore, a
conditional use permit is required to allow this smoking lounge. 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.

Staff believes that the smoking lounge will not generate significant noise or odor impacts on the
adjacent residential uses because the indoor smoking lounge would be operated with a ventilation
system to capture and filter the smoke. The adjacent restaurant, to the east, will no longer operate
with any outdoor smoking lounge. The proposed outdoor smoking lounge is located approximately 65
feet to the closest residential structure to the east and 95 feet to the closet residential structure to the
south. The parking lot acts as a buffer between the smoking lounge and the adjacent residences. The
doors on the south building elevation are for emergency or employee use only, and a condition of
approval has been included in the draft resolution requiring that they remain closed at all times. To
minimize any potential impacts on the adjacent residences, staff has also included a conditions of
approval requiring that the outdoor hookah space close at 12 midnight, prohibiting all live
entertainment or amplified music outdoors, and prohibiting food service in the indoor hookah space
because of the State Smoke-free Workplace laws. However, entertainment would be permitted in the
indoor restaurant space, subject to staff review and approval of an Entertainment Permit.
Parking Variance: A total of 47 parking spaces are required for all uses on the property, which
consists of the proposed smoking lounge, restaurant with outdoor dining and a private spa. The site
has a total of 30 parking spaces. The smoking lounge itself requires 24 parking spaces, as outlined in
the table below:

The applicant submitted a parking justification letter and parking demand analysis of another
smoking lounge (Odyssey Hookah Lounge) operated by the same business owner located in the City
of Cypress. Odyssey Hookah Lounge is a 2,500 square foot tenant space with 35 parking spaces that
operates daily from 3:00 p.m. to 2:00 a.m. The business owner conducted a parking demand analysis
and identified that 23 parking spaces were occupied during the peak hours of 9:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m.
for Odyssey Hookah Lounge. Based on these counts, the business owner determined that the actual
parking demand during peak hours of operation is approximately one parking space per 108 square
feet or 9 spaces per 1,000 square feet. By applying this parking demand ratio, the applicant
anticipates that only 13 parking spaces would be needed for the proposed smoking lounge. The
proposed floor plan for the indoor and outdoor smoking lounge, is limited in the number of seats
available for customer, the counter space, storage room and bathroom.
In addition, the business owner estimates that a total of 10 spaces is needed for the restaurant based
on the limited customer capacity both in the indoor and outdoor seating provided. The parking
demand analysis also indicates that the adjacent spa would only require a maximum of 4 spaces
during their normal hours of operation. The parking requirement for smoking lounges is the same as
a bar or nightclub. Bars and nightclubs are establishments that primarily serve beer, wine, or other
alcoholic beverages, may or may not include food service, and have smaller tables with a higher
volume of customers. Based on the letter of operation and proposed floor plan, staff does not believe
that the proposed smoking lounge is consistent with a typical bar or nightclub in terms of the parking
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2019-06047 AND VARIANCE NO. 2020-05137
May 11, 2020

demand. Therefore, based on the applicant’s parking demand analysis for all on-site uses described
above, including the proposed smoking lounge, staff believes that the estimated parking demand is a
maximum of 27 spaces. Based on the conclusions in the applicant’s parking demand analysis, staff
recommends approval of the parking variance.
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 permit a smoking lounge, Jannah Café,
within an existing 1,100 square foot tenant space with a 330 square foot outdoor smoking patio. No
expansion of the 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 is
categorically exempt from the provisions of CEQA.
CONCLUSION: Staff believes that the proposed smoking lounge would be compatible with the
uses in the commercial center and would not have a significant impact on adjacent residences. The
recommended conditions of approval will minimize any impacts to the surrounding area. In addition,
the findings necessary to support the parking variance can be met, since the parking demand analysis
indicates that the site will provide adequate parking for the proposed smoking lounge and other uses
on the site. Staff recommends approval of this conditional use permit and variance.

PERMIT NO. 2019-06047 AND VARIANCE NO. 2020-05137
AND MAKING CERTAIN FINDINGS
IN CONNECTION THEREWITH
DEV2019-00165)
2780 WEST BALL ROAD)
WHEREAS, the Anaheim City Planning Commission (hereinafter referred to as the
Planning Commission"), did receive a verified petition for Conditional Use Permit No. 2019-
06047 to permit a smoking lounge within an existing commercial tenant space located less than
200 feet from a residential zone and 1,000 feet from a school, and Variance No. 2020-05137 to
permit less parking spaces than required by the Anaheim Municipal Code (herein referred to as
the "Proposed Project"), on that certain real property located at 2780 West Ball Road in the City
of Anaheim, generally depicted on the map attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein
by this reference (the "Property”); and
WHEREAS, the Property is approximately 0.57-acres in size and is developed with two
commercial buildings. The Property is located within the “C-G” General Commercial Zone and
is subject to the zoning and development standards contained in Chapter 18.08 (Commercial
Zones) of the Anaheim Municipal Code (“Code”). The Anaheim General Plan designates the
Property for Medium Density Residential land uses; and
WHEREAS, on March 16, 2020, the Planning Commission did hold a public hearing at the
Civic Center in the City of Anaheim, notice of said public hearing having been duly given as
required by Chapter 18.60 of the Code, to hear and consider evidence for and against proposed
Conditional Use Permit No. 2019-06047 and Variance No. 2020-05137, and to investigate and
make findings and recommendations in connection therewith, and this item was continued to the
March 30, 2020, April 13, 2020, and May 11, 2020 meetings; 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
WHEREAS, 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 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 project is a request to permit a smoking lounge in an existing commercial building. 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
2 - PC2020-***
on the environment and, therefore, the proposed project is categorically exempt from the provisions
of CEQA; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission, after due inspection, investigation and study made
by itself and in its behalf, and after due consideration of all evidence and reports offered at said
hearing pertaining to the request for Conditional Use Permit No. 2019-06047, does find and
determine the following facts:
1. The request to permit a smoking lounge within an existing commercial building in
the C-G zone, under the conditions imposed, is properly one for which a conditional use permit is
authorized by Section 18.08.030.010 of the Code.
2. The Proposed Project, under the conditions imposed, 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 all activities will be separated between the smoking lounge and residential uses
by an adjacent restaurant and parking lot, an existing outdoor smoking area at the east end of the
restaurant will be removed, and the hours of operation will be limited through conditions of
approval in order to reduce potential impacts on adjacent residential properties.
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 either the particular area nor to the health,
safety and general welfare of the public because the Property is currently improved with a
commercial building and no expansion is proposed.
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 there is adequate parking on-site based on a parking demand study prepared for the site.
5. The granting of Conditional Use Permit No. 2019-06047 under the conditions
imposed will not be detrimental to the health and safety of the citizens of the City of Anaheim and
will provide a land use that is compatible with the surrounding area.
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission does further find and determine that the request for
a variance for less parking than required by Code should be approved for the following reasons:
SECTION NO. 18.42.040.010 Minimum number of parking spaces.
47 spaces required; 30 spaces proposed)
1. The variance for the Property, under the conditions imposed, will not cause fewer
off-street parking spaces to be provided for the Property than the number of such spaces necessary
to accommodate all vehicles attributable to all uses at the Property under the normal and reasonably
foreseeable conditions of operation of such uses. The applicant submitted a parking justification
letter and parking demand analysis of another smoking lounge operate by the same business owner
located in the City of Cypress, Odyssey Hookah Lounge. Odyssey Hookah Lounge is a 2,500
square foot tenant space with 35 parking spaces that operates daily from 3:00 p.m. to 2:00 a.m.
The business owner conducted a parking demand analysis and identified that 23 parking spaces
were occupied during the peak hours of 9:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. for Odyssey Hookah Lounge.
Based on this parking demand, the business owner determined that the parking requirement at peak
hours of operation is approximately one parking space per 108 square feet. By applying this
3 - PC2020-***
parking ratio, the applicant anticipates that 13 parking spaces would be needed for the proposed
smoking lounge. In addition, the business owner estimates that a total of 10 spaces would be
needed for the adjacent restaurant based on the limited customer capacity both in the indoor and
outdoor seating provided. The parking demand indicates that the adjacent spa would only require
a maximum of 4 spaces during their normal hours of operation. Therefore, the parking demand for
all uses on-site, including the proposed smoking lounge, is estimated to be 27 spaces and 30 spaces
are provided.
2. That the variance, under the conditions imposed, if any, will not increase the
demand and competition for parking spaces upon the public streets in the immediate vicinity of
the proposed use because the on-site parking within the commercial property will adequately
accommodate the peak parking demands of the proposed smoking lounge and the other uses on
the site; and
3. That the variance, under the conditions imposed, if any, will not increase the
demand and competition for parking spaces upon adjacent private property in the immediate
vicinity of the proposed use because the on-site parking for the smoking lounge, spa facility and
restaurant will adequately accommodate peak parking demands of all uses on the site.
4. That the variance, under the conditions imposed, if any, will not increase traffic
congestion within the off-street parking areas or lots provided for the proposed use because the
project site provides adequate ingress and egress points to the property and are designed to allow
for adequate on-site circulation; and
5. That the variance, under the conditions imposed, if any, will not impede vehicular
ingress to or egress from adjacent properties upon the public streets in the immediate vicinity of
the proposed use because the project site has existing ingress or egress access points that are
designed to allow adequate on-site circulation, and therefore will not impede vehicular ingress to
or egress from adjacent properties upon the public streets in the immediate vicinity of the smoking
lounge.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that this Planning Commission does hereby
approve Conditional Use Permit No. 2019-06016 and Variance No. 2020-05137 at the Property,
subject to the conditions of approval described in Exhibit B attached hereto and incorporated

of the Property in order to preserve the health, safety and general welfare of the citizens of the City
of Anaheim. Extensions for further time to complete conditions of approval may be granted in
accordance with Section 18.60.170 of the Code. Timing for compliance with conditions of

RE: Parking justification letter for Janna café and the adjacent empty space located at 2778 and 2780
West Ball Rd. Anaheim, ca 92804
Introduction
The purpose of this justification letter is to determine the parking demand for a hookah lounge
and a restaurant. The City of Anaheim municipal code’s parking requirement for the proposed use is 48
stalls based on a parking ratio of 10/1000 for the restaurant and 17/1000 for the hookah lounge, total
square feet of gross floor area while the project has 30 stalls available.
The project consists of 2 separate adjacent locations leased by me, Makram DarNser. The first
location is a potential small restaurant, the second location is a potential to open as hookah lounge.
Total building square footage for both locations is 3135. Anticipated usage after construction
and décor is less than 2047.5 square feet that includes outside patio, inside restaurant and indoor
hookah lounge.
Observed Parking at another Hookah lounge
Odyssey Hookah Lounge
6306 Lincoln Ave, Cypress, CA 90630
Odyssey hookah lounge operates in the city of cypress, total square footage is 2500. They have
35 stalls and they operate from 3 pm to 2 am daily. Based on our observation only 23 spaces were
occupied during the peak hours of 9 pm – 11 pm. This equates to 108 S.F per parking space. They serve
hookah and nonalcoholic drinks.
This place does birthday parties and company events and their parking spaces are always
available. Most costumers stay between 45 Min to 90 min. students go to this place to do homework
and other school projects. The demand is always constant around 12-13 spaces since costumers come
and go.
ATTACHMENT NO. 3
Page 2
Although of Peak hours are from 7 pm to 11 pm, parking is never at full capacity. They do
operate at the same way we are planning to operate our project at 2778 and 2780 West Ball Rd.
Anaheim, ca 92804.
Based on the calculation of 108 S.F per parking space, we anticipate that only 13 spaces would
be needed for the hookah space.
For the restaurant we are planning on having 5 tables in the restaurant and 3 tables in the
outdoor patios, only 10 spaces would be needed. As for our neighbor Neptune’s, max of 4 spaces would
be needed. A total of 27 spaces would be needed for all uses on the site, and the number of stalls
available is 30 stalls.

Good evening,
I am writing this email as a long time Anaheim resident. I am concerned about item 2
on the Planning Agenda set for 5/11/20.
I would like to renew my objections raised in my original email on April 13, 2020.
I have great concern with the approval of an outdoor smoking lounge that is located
65 feet to a residential structure to the east and 95 feet to a residential structure to the
south. Both of these distances are substantially less than the 200 feet required.
A public school is located 425 feet from the hookah space which is less than the 1000
feet required.
The hours of operation are to be until 12AM.
The respective distance requirement approved by council in regards to smoking
lounges are put in place to protect the health and welfare of the neighboring
community. I would ask that a variance not be approved and that the business owner
be required to abide by the ordnance as it stands.
The hookah lounges located along the Brookhurst Corridor (parallel to Archer Street)
have greatly impacted those residents in a negative fashion. The noise, smoke, traffic
and disturbances are very real and often leave residents feeling ignored.
Please respect the quality of life of Anaheim residents and vote to not approve the
CUP for this outdoor smoking lounge.

Dear Planning Commissioners,
Please do not approve the CUP for Janna Cafe - out door smoking lounge because if you are,
you will all responsible for the wellbeing of all the residents who live near this site.
A number of different studies from Orange County Health Care Agency includes a 2005
study from the World Health Organization ( WHO) regarding the public health concerns
surrounding hookah parlors. The study from WHO concluded that “ water pipe smokers and
second hand smokers are at risk for the same kinds of disease as are caused by cigarette
smoking, including cancer, heart diseases, respiratory disease and adverse effects during
pregnancy, and sharing a hookah mouthpiece poses a serious risk of transmission of
communicable disease.” Also the study concluded that a “ typical 1 - hour long water pipe
smoking session involves inhaling 100-200 times the volume of smoke inhaled with a single
cigarette,” and that the smoke, even after passing through water, “ contain high levels of toxic
compounds, including high levels of carbon monoxide, metals and cancer- causing chemical.”
In conclusion, hookah smoking poses THE SAME HEALTH RISK AS OTHER FORM OF
TOBACCO USE THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN PROHIBITED IN PUBLIC ENCLOSED
SPACE, AND FURTHERMORE, IS NOT A SAFE ALTERNATIVE TO THE OTHERS
FORM OF TOBACCO USE BY USER AND TO SECOND-HANH RECIPIENTS.
Please consider your vote tonight because it’s directly effect the well being and the health
of residents who live in 65 feet near the Janna Cafe and quality of residents in West Anaheim
.
Thank you.

Dear Mr. Emery,
My name is Priscilla Thompson and I am writing in support of the letter
that was written by Ms. Amanda Edinger and sent to your office. I have
lived and worked in West Anaheim for over 10 years and I endeavor to
be up-to-date and involved with City matters, especially those which
directly affect myself and my family. In particular, this matter of
hookah lounges is something very close to my heart. I worked at the
City of Garden Grove from 1997-2005, and during that time hookah and
hookah lounges were becoming very trendy. The mistaken view by
many residents and City staff was that it was a safe alternative to
smoking cigarettes. My department took the initiative to educate not
only the public but also the city administration regarding public health
risks associated with hookah. It was not an easy endeavor since the
issue touched solidly on income the City received from these
establishments; however, in short, we successfully worked with the
community and fellow staff members to provide a safe, hookah-free
environment within the City. I applaud Ms. Edinger's efforts to provide
an equally safe environment for our community and I offer her letter to
you for your serious consideration.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Priscilla Thompson
Ms. Edinger's Letter:
NEW CORRESPONDENCE
ITEM NO. 2
Dear Mr. Emery,
For the past several months, West Anaheim residents have pleaded with
city staff to create a stronger ordinance surrounding hookah lounges.
Those discussions outlined the negative effects of hookah smoke, the
adverse secondary effects they have on surrounding properties as well
as the weakening of public protections from smoking and tobacco
related pollution. During those discussions, documentation was
provided illustrating the negative effects of hookah smoke as well as
pointing out that other cities have introduced stringent ordinances with
proven results. For reasons the residents of the West Side cannot
understand or grasp, the documentation has gone largely ignored. There
appears to be reluctance by the city to adopt any such ordinance that has
any real “teeth” to it.
Recently, Council Woman Kring directed city staff to research this issue
and return with a report on the topic and the verbiage for a
hookah/smoking lounge ordinance. That report was scheduled to be read
at the November 18th council meeting. However, staff scheduled a
workshop on November 18 at 3.p.m. Firstly, Council Woman Kring did
not request a workshop. She requested staff to conduct research (much
of which residents have already provided) and to deliver that report at a
regular council meeting. Secondly, many residents are unable to attend a
workshop on a Tuesday in the middle of the afternoon. As a result,
residents will be entirely cut out of the process.
In 2007, the California Department of Health sought to end most of the
Smoke Free Workplace Act exemptions and received NO opposition
from business groups or the tobacco industry. During the effort, they
noted that the exemptions set back in 1994 were outdated and that
California had fallen behind in protecting residents and workers from
the toxic effects of second hand smoke. The Department of Health
specifically listed tobacco shops, smoking lounges and hookah
establishments as examples where our residents and workers are left
unprotected. They also noted that the US Surgeon General found that
smoking room ventilation does NOT eliminate the exposure risks to
second hand smoke. (see report here
http://www.cdph.ca.gov/programs/tobacco/Documents/CTCP-Theresa-

Anaheim has roughly 17 hookah lounges within city limits with 14 of
them residing in West Anaheim. In fact, Anaheim has more hookah
lounges than any other city in Orange County. 9 of the 17 lounges are
located along Brookhurst Street and half of those lounges are located
outdoor. Of the outdoor hookah lounges currently in the city, 75% of
them have been allowed to operate within 200 feet of residential
boundaries, which is a variance of the guidelines set by the city in order
to operate. Frankly, this is unacceptable and fails to adequately protect
our residents' health, safety and welfare. Given that there are so many
individual exemptions to the guidelines, how can the city expect Code
Enforcement to enforce the law effectively? Code Enforcements
Officers are already stretched thin as it as and now many citable
offenses will go unchecked as officers are not provided with any set
standard to follow, but instead are forced to research each individual
establishment before addressing a complaint. Further, given that most of
the hookah lounges are allowed to remain open until the early morning
hours, residents are left to deal with the noise, trash and after hour
activities in the parking lots.
Other cities have initiated outright bans against smoking lounges while
others have set very strict limitations on them. For example, the City of
Santa Cruz limits hookah lounges to indoor locations only and a hookah
lounge is not permitted within 1000 feet of another hookah lounge (see
ordinance here
http://www.codepublishing.com/ca/santacruz/html/santacruz05/SantaCruz0554.html).
They are also not permitted within 1000 feet of recreational parks or
schools.
We have continually asked the city to engage in a similar practice by
placing a limit on the number of licenses city wide as well limiting them
within a prescribed geographic proximity. We believe that the city
needs to enact a local ordinance to specifically regulate hookah and
smoking establishments and said ordinance should not allow for
exceptions. We ask that the following parameters be taken into
consideration for an ordinance:
limit the number of hookah establishments not only city wide, but
district wide. Set a defined geographic proximity as to where they
can open. (I.E 3000 feet from each other)
limit hookah establishments to indoor ONLY
limit proximity to schools, parks and residential neighborhoods.
(I.E 3000 feet)
no food or alcohol should be served at the establishment
existing establishments cannot be grandfathered in. Provide a
time frame for existing businesses to taper into compliance of the
new ordinance. If the property changes ownership or tenant, the
new rules apply.
The city of Anaheim has a responsibility to protect the health and
welfare of its residents. Please move forward with an ordinance that will
adequately do so.

Dear Planning Commissioners,
Please do not approve the CUP for Janna Cafe - out door smoking lounge
because if you are, you will all responsible for the well being of all the
residents who live near this site.
A number of different studies from Orange County Health Care Agency
includes a 2005 study from the World Health Organization ( WHO) regarding
the public health concerns surrounding hookah parlors. The study from WHO
concluded that “ water pipe smokers and second hand smokers are at risk for
the same kinds of disease as are caused by cigarette smoking, including
cancer, heart diseases, respiratory disease and adverse effects during
pregnancy, and sharing a hookah mouthpiece poses a serious risk of
transmission of communicable disease.” Also the study concluded that a “
typical 1 - hour long water pipe smoking session involves inhaling 100-200
times the volume of smoke inhaled with a single cigarette,” and that the
smoke, even after passing through water, “ contain high levels of toxic
compounds, including high levels of carbon monoxide, metals and cancer-
causing chemical.”
In conclusion, hookah smoking poses THE SAME HEALTH RISK AS
OTHER FORM OF TOBACCO USE THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN
PROHIBITED IN PUBLIC ENCLOSED SPACE, AND FURTHERMORE, IS
NOT A SAFE ALTERNATIVE TO THE OTHERS FORM OF TOBACCO USE
BY USER AND TO SECOND-HANH RECIPIENTS.
Please consider your vote tonight because it’s directly effect the well
being and the health of residents who live in 65 feet near the Janna Cafe and
quality of residents in West Anaheim .
Thank you.
Kathy Tran .

The hookah lounges located along the Brookhurst

impacted those residents in a negative fashion. The
noise, smoke, traffic and disturbances are very real
and often leave residents feeling ignored.
Please respect the quality of life of Anaheim

ITEM NO. 3
PLANNING COMMISSION REPORT
City of Anaheim
PLANNING AND BUILDING DEPARTMENT
DATE: MAY 11, 2020
SUBJECT: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2019-06019
LOCATION: 1580 South Lewis Street (Train More Play Less)
APPLICANT/PROPERTY OWNER: The applicant is Jason and Suna Garcia of
Train More Play Less, represented by Chris Lamm of Diamond Star Associates. The
property owner is the Kelly O’Connell Trust, represented by Kelly O’Connell.
REQUEST: The applicant requests approval of a conditional use permit to permit
and retain an indoor softball training facility within an existing industrial building.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve
the attached resolution, determining that this request is categorically exempt from
further environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act
CEQA) under Section 15301, Class 1 (Existing Facilities) of the State CEQA
Guidelines, and approving Conditional Use Permit No. 2019-06019.
BACKGROUND: The 0.45-acre property is developed with an existing industrial
building and is part of a 6.85-acre industrial complex that shares parking and on-site
circulation. The property is located in the Industrial “I” zone, and the General Plan
designates the property for Industrial land uses. Surrounding land uses include an
electrical substation across Lewis Avenue to the west, an outdoor storage yard to the
south, a railroad track to the east, and a stone retail and wholesale business across
Cerritos Avenue to the north.
Train More Play Less (TMPL) has been in operation at this location since July 2017,
without the required conditional use permit. The request for a conditional use permit
resulted from a Code Enforcement violation notice requiring TMPL to obtain
Planning Commission approval of this permit.
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2019-06019
May 11, 2020
Page 2 of 5
PROPOSAL: The applicant proposes to retain the existing 9,700 square foot indoor baseball
training facility. Tenant improvements to the building include offices, batting tunnels, pitching
lanes, and open workout areas. Some of these tenant improvements have been constructed
without building permits and would require approvals through the City’s tenant improvement
permitting process. Business operations include private training (hitting, catching, pitching, etc.).
Private training is conducted one-on-one, small groups up to six kids, or team training up to 14
kids. Up to five coaches and two administrative staff are present for training activities. Hours of
operation are from 4:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Monday-Friday; and varying hours Saturday and
Sunday. Summer camps are proposed 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. for up to 42 kids and three coaches.
The parking is shared with industrial uses that have typical business hours, as well as an ice rink
and church that are open on weekends.

OVERALL SITE PLAN OF THE BUSINESS COMPLEX
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.
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2019-06019
May 11, 2020
Page 4 of 5
The Municipal Code requires approval of a conditional use permit for “Recreation Commercial –
Indoor” uses to ensure that the uses are appropriate for the site, compatible with surrounding land
uses, and in compliance with Municipal Code requirements. Staff believes this request to permit
and retain the existing training facility is appropriate because the business would not create any
adverse impacts to surrounding land uses. Specifically, the use would not create unnecessary
noise impacts to surrounding properties, and there will be sufficient on-site circulation and
parking as discussed below.
The Municipal Code requires that the parking demand for the training facility be calculated by a
parking demand study or by parking letter. In order to demonstrate that adequate parking exists
on the property, the applicant conducted parking counts on weekdays during normal business
operations. Peak demand was found to be 179 cars on a Thursday at 4:00 p.m., resulting in a
surplus of 141 parking spaces. Staff also found two prior parking studies completed for the
existing church and ice rink. Based on the conclusions of these studies, weekday peak demand is
183 at 4:30 p.m., leaving up to 137 spaces for TMPL. Staff conducted field visits and verified
these results. The studies also anticipated weekend peak demand of 204 spaces at 1:30 p.m.
leaving a surplus of up to 116 spaces for TMPL. Staff was not able to verify weekend parking
conditions because many businesses are closed due to the recent state of emergency. With the
estimated amount of surplus parking spaces, staff does not anticipate any of the operations
described in the applicant’s letter will create parking impacts.
The unpermitted tenant improvements are required to be addressed through the Building
Division. Accordingly, staff has included conditions of approval to ensure timely compliance
with Building Code requirements.
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 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 project is a
request to permit and retain the unpermitted indoor softball training facility an existing industrial
building. The unpermitted use includes an batting cages, indoor training areas, and ancillary
offices. CEQA permits the use of the Class 1 Exemption for interior alterations. 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.
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2019-06019
May 11, 2020
Page 5 of 5
CONCLUSION: Staff believes that conditions exist for the Planning Commission to make the
required findings to approve this request. The proposed indoor baseball training facility would be
compatible with surrounding land uses. Additionally, the number of parking spaces provided
would be adequate to accommodate all uses on the property. Staff recommends approval of this
request.

A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF ANAHEIM APPROVING CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
NO. 2019-06019 AND MAKING CERTAIN FINDINGS
IN CONNECTION THEREWITH
DEV2019-00073)
1580 SOUTH LEWIS STREET)
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Anaheim (the "Planning
Commission") did receive a verified petition to approve Conditional Use Permit No. 2019-06019
to permit and retain an existing indoor softball training facility (the "Proposed Project") for
premises located at that certain real property at 1580 South Lewis Street, in the City of Anaheim,
County of Orange, State of California, as generally depicted on the map attached hereto as Exhibit
A and incorporated herein by this reference (the "Property"); and
WHEREAS, the Property is approximately 0.45-acres in size and is currently
developed with an industrial building. The Anaheim General Plan designates the Property for
Industrial land uses. The Property is located in the “I” Industrial zone is subject to the zoning and
development standards contained in Chapter 18.10 (Industrial Zone) of the Anaheim Municipal
Code (the "Code"); and
WHEREAS, a duly noticed public hearing was scheduled before the Planning
Commission at the Civic Center in the City of Anaheim on May 11, 2020 at 5:00 p.m. to hear and
consider evidence and testimony for and against 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 the 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 "CEQA Guidelines"), and the City's Local CEQA
Procedure Manual, the City is the "lead agency" for the preparation and consideration of
environmental documents for the Proposed Project; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission finds and determines that the effects of the
Proposed Project are typical of those generated within that class of projects (i.e., Class 1 – Existing
Facilities) which consist 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, and that, therefore, pursuant to Section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines, the
Proposed Project will not cause a significant effect on the environment and is, therefore,
categorically exempt from the provisions of CEQA; and
2 - PC2020-***
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission, after due inspection, investigation and study
made by itself and in its behalf, and after due consideration of all evidence and reports offered at
said hearing with respect to the request for Conditional Use Permit No. 2019-06019, does find and
determine the following:
1. The proposed request to permit and retain an indoor softball training facility in
an existing industrial building is an allowable use within the "I" Industrial Zone under subsection
010 of Section 18.10.030 (Uses) of Chapter 18.10 (Industrial Zone) of the Code, subject to a
conditional use permit and the zoning and development standards of the "I" Industrial Zone.
2. The conditional use permit, subject to compliance with the conditions imposed,
will not adversely affect the surrounding land uses and the growth and development of the area
because the Property is developed with an industrial complex and there is a sufficient amount of
parking spaces to accommodate the parking demand for the indoor traning facility and the
surrounding uses within the complex.
3. The size and shape of the Property is adequate to allow the full operation of the
proposed use in a manner not detrimental to the particular area or to the health, safety and general
welfare because the facility is located within an industrial building with a sufficient number of on-
site parking spaces being provided, adequate vehicle circulation is provided on site, and
compliance with the conditions of approval contained herein will ensure that the indoor training
facility does not have an adverse impact on the adjacent uses.
4. The traffic generated by the use would not impose an undue burden upon the
streets and highways designed and improved to carry the traffic in the area because the number of
vehicles entering and exiting the site will not exceed the anticipated volumes of traffic on the
surrounding streets to accommodate the use.
5. The granting of Conditional Use Permit No. 2019-06019 under the conditions
imposed will not be detrimental to the health and safety of the citizens of the City of Anaheim and
will provide a land use that is compatible with the surrounding area.
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission determines that the evidence in the record
constitutes substantial evidence to support the actions taken and the findings made in this
Resolution, that the facts stated in this Resolution are supported by substantial evidence in the
record, including testimony received at the public hearing, the staff presentations, the staff report
and all materials in the project files. There is no substantial evidence, nor are there other facts,
that detract from the findings made in this Resolution. The Planning Commission expressly
declares that it considered all evidence presented and reached these findings after due
consideration of all evidence presented to it.
3 - PC2020-***
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission does hereby
approve Conditional Use Permit No. 2019-06019, and further contingent upon and subject to the
conditions of approval set forth in Exhibit B attached hereto and incorporated herein by this
reference, which are hereby found to be a necessary prerequisite to the proposed use of the Property
under Conditional Use Permit No. 2019-06019 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

permit may be processed in accordance with Chapters 18.60.190 (Amendment to Permit Approval)
and 18.60.200 (Revocation or Modification of Permits) of the Code.

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.

PLANNING AND BUILDING DEPARTMENT
DATE: MAY 11, 2020
SUBJECT: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2019-06024
VARIANCE NO. 2020-05135 AND
ADMINISTRATIVE ADJUSTMENT NO. 2020-00443
LOCATION: 2595 West Lincoln Avenue
APPLICANT/PROPERTY OWNER: The applicant and property owner is Stuart
Lohr with Winger Ranch, LLC; the agent representing the applicant is Katie Rounds
with The Kaidence Group.
REQUEST: The applicant requests approval of the following applications:
1) A Conditional Use Permit to demolish an existing commercial building and
construct a coffee shop with a drive-through lane;
2) A Variance to permit fewer parking spaces than required by the Anaheim
Municipal Code (“Code”); and
3) An Administrative Adjustment to permit front and interior landscape
setbacks less than required by the Code.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve
the attached resolution, determining that this request is categorically exempt from
further environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (Class
3, New Construction) and approving Conditional Use Permit No. 2019-06024,
Variance No. 2020-05135, and Administrative Adjustment No. 2020-00443.
BACKGROUND: This 0.53-acre property is developed with a vacant 1,976 square
foot building, which was previously occupied by a drive-through pharmacy and
subsequent check cashing business. The property is located in the "C-G" General
Commercial Zone and the General Plan designates the property for General
Commercial land uses. Surrounding land uses include a restaurant across Magnolia
Avenue to the west, multi-family housing to the north and to the east, and a fast food
restaurant with drive-through across Lincoln Avenue to the south.

Proposed North Elevation
PROPOSAL: The applicant proposes to demolish the existing vacant building and construct a
new 2,000 square foot coffee shop that would include a drive-through lane with vehicular
stacking to accommodate eight vehicles (with two additional vehicles in the driveway), a take-
out window, and a 200 square foot outdoor patio area. The proposed restaurant is designed to
seat 39 people, including 27 people inside the building and 12 people on the outdoor patio. The
building would feature stone siding that resembles reclaimed wood, metal trellises with clinging
vines, variations in the horizontal rooflines, and smooth stucco finishes in neutral gray tones (see
above Proposed North Elevation and Attachment 4). A detailed development summary is
included as Attachment 8 to this report.
Trash from the proposed trash enclosure would be removed from the site through the use of a
scout/pull-out truck to take the trash bin to a staging area as determined by the City’s trash
service provider. A condition of approval is included in the attached resolution (Attachment 1)
that will require the owner of the property to provide trash removal in accordance with a
circulation plan acceptable to the Public Works Department and the trash service provider.
The applicant is requesting to operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week, for both the café and
the drive-through with four to six employees per shift. A total of 16 parking spaces are proposed
on-site, including one handicap space and two Mobile Order Pick-Up (“MOP”) spaces. MOP
spaces are designed for patrons who place their orders online or via mobile device and then pick
them up at the restaurant. This type of ordering is expected to have a quick turnaround time since
the order is filled and payed for by the time the customer arrives. The applicant’s traffic
consultant, Albert Grover & Associates, studied the parking times for MOP stalls in a Starbucks
in Santa Ana (Attachment 6). The study found the average turnaround time for these stalls to be
just over three minutes.
The applicant is proposing to install wall signs and on-site directional signs in compliance with
Code requirements. Additionally, an existing, 19’3” tall nonconforming pole sign on the corner
of Lincoln Avenue and Magnolia Avenue is proposed to be refaced and reused.

Proposed Site Plan
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;
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2019-06024, VARIANCE NO. 2020-05135, AND
ADMINISTRATIVE ADJUSTMENT NO. 2020-00443
May 11, 2020
Page 4 of 6
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.
While coffee shops are permitted by right in this zone; a conditional use permit is required to
permit the drive-through lane. The purpose of the conditional use permit is to ensure proper
design and function of the drive-through lane and that vehicular circulation does not impact
surrounding properties. The drive-through would be accessible from Magnolia Avenue to the
west, and Lincoln Avenue to the south through existing driveways. The drive-through lane
would be screened from view of the street by landscaping along Lincoln and Magnolia Avenues.
Directional signage would be placed at key locations on-site, including a sign at the end of the
drive-through and painted “keep clear” zones. The drive-through speaker would use technology
that monitors ambient noise levels and decreases its volume when ambient noises are low (i.e.
evening and early morning).
The drive-through lane has been designed to minimize the probability of vehicles queueing onto
Magnolia Avenue. A Queuing Study (Attachment 6) was submitted by the applicant, which
concluded that the maximum queuing size at a similarly sized Starbucks was seven vehicles,
occurring for approximately 15 minutes in the morning. The drive-through peak hour was
observed to begin at 7:00 a.m., during which the average queue size was approximately six
vehicles (less than the proposed drive-through queuing capacity of eight vehicles). The study
location was chosen in part because it has two Mobile Order Pick-Up (“MOP”) spaces, similar to
the proposed project. The Queuing Study found that “with the quick turnover of parking at the
MOP parking spaces, there is a stronger likelihood of more patrons ordering via online/mobile
and potentially reducing the drive-through queuing for the Starbucks. Based on the above data
and design features, staff believes that the proposed use would be compatible with the
surrounding area and recommends approval of the conditional use permit.
Variance: Before the Planning Commission may approve a parking variance, it must make a
finding of fact that the evidence presented shows that the following conditions exist:
1) That the variance, under the conditions imposed, if any, will not cause fewer off-street
parking spaces to be provided for the proposed use than the number of such spaces
necessary to accommodate all vehicles attributable to such use under the normal and
reasonably foreseeable conditions of operation of such use;
2) That the variance, under the conditions imposed, if any, will not increase the demand and
competition for parking spaces upon the public streets in the immediate vicinity of the
proposed use;
3) That the variance, under the conditions imposed, if any, will not increase the demand and
competition for parking spaces upon adjacent private property in the immediate vicinity
of the proposed use;

ADMINISTRATIVE ADJUSTMENT NO. 2020-00443
May 11, 2020
Page 5 of 6
4) That the variance, under the conditions imposed, if any, will not increase traffic
congestion within the off-street parking areas or lots provided for the proposed use; and
5) That the variance, under the conditions imposed, if any, will not impede vehicular ingress
to or egress from adjacent properties upon the public streets in the immediate vicinity of
the proposed use.
The Code allows a coffee shop to be constructed in the C-G Zone by right, but the applicant is
requesting a variance from the parking requirements in the Code. The proposed project requires
22 parking spaces; however, 16 are provided. The applicant has submitted a letter of
justification indicating that, with the required dedication of seven feet along both Lincoln and
Magnolia Avenues, and requirements for truck turning radius and drive-through placement, the
size of the lot makes it difficult to meet all of the development standards while providing the
required amount of parking spaces. The applicant’s traffic consultant studied a similarly sited
Starbucks in Anaheim (see parking study – Attachment No. 7) and found the maximum parking
utilization to be 14 vehicles. Average parking utilization was found to be 10-11 vehicles. Since
the applicant has proposed 16 parking spaces, staff believes there would be adequate on-site
parking spaces available during peak periods, and therefore recommends approval of the
requested parking variance.
Administrative Adjustment: The applicant requests an administrative adjustment to allow for
reduced street and interior setbacks than required by the Municipal Code. The Planning Director
has review authority over Administrative Adjustments, but may refer any application to the
Planning Commission for review. Since the Conditional Use Permit and Variance 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 Code;
2) The same or similar result cannot be achieved by using provisions in the
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 proposed project requires 15-foot wide landscaped setbacks along Lincoln and Magnolia
Avenues; however, 12-foot wide landscape setbacks are proposed. Additionally, 10-foot interior
setbacks are required to the north and east, while 9-foot wide setbacks are proposed. Staff is
supportive of these minor deviations in setbacks required by the Code, due to the following:
Interior Setbacks: The applicant requests a 10 percent deviation in the north and east
setbacks, where 10-foot setbacks are required and 9 feet are proposed. Staff believes the
reduced interior setbacks are justified because there will be adequate separation from the
adjacent residential land uses and the existing landscaped walls along the north and east
property lines will remain. Additionally, the closest apartment units are approximately 63
feet from the property line to the east and 80 feet from the property line to the north.
Ninety percent of the required landscaped setbacks along the interior of the lot would be

ADMINISTRATIVE ADJUSTMENT NO. 2020-00443

provided, and carports are the only structures along the property lines of the adjacent
properties. Because of these factors, staff is supportive of this request.
Front Setbacks: The applicant requests a 20 percent deviation for the setbacks along
Lincoln and Magnolia Avenues (south and west setbacks), where 15-foot landscaped
setbacks are required and 12-feet are provided. Staff reviewed the setbacks on parcels
with drive-through restaurants along this portion of Lincoln Avenue and found that the
parcels are all larger than the proposed site or nonconforming based upon the current
Code requirements. Staff also found that none of the nearby comparable sites have the
setbacks required by the current Code. The applicant has proposes a 12-foot setback in
addition to a landscaped seven foot dedication, totaling 19 feet along both street
frontages. Staff believes that the coffee shop is designed in a manner that is sensitive to
the adjacent properties by providing reasonable setbacks that are compatible with the
area. Due to these factors, staff is supportive of this request.
Environmental Impact Analysis: Staff recommends the Planning Commission find that the
effects of the proposed project are Categorically Exempt from the requirements to prepare
additional environmental documentation per California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
Guidelines, Section 15303, Class 3 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures). Class
3 consists of construction and location of limited numbers of new small structures or facilities. In
urbanized areas, this exemption applies to commercial buildings not exceeding 10,000 square
feet. The proposed project is a 2,000 square foot coffee shop that would include a drive-through
lane, a take-out window, and a 200 square foot outdoor patio area; and, therefore, this exemption
is applicable. Pursuant to Section 15300.2 (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 drive-through coffee shop is consistent with the goals of the
property’s General Commercial land use designation, which includes neighborhood serving
commercial uses. The drive-through lane has been designed to minimize impacts to surrounding
uses and to ensure proper on- and off-site traffic flow. Additionally, the number of parking
spaces being proposed would be adequate to accommodate this drive-through and dine-in coffee
shop. Staff recommends approval of this request.

PERMIT NO. 2019-06024, VARIANCE NO. 2020-05135, AND ADMINISTRATIVE
ADJUSTMENT NO. 2020-00443 AND MAKING
CERTAIN FINDINGS IN CONNECTION THEREWITH
DEV2019-00093)
2595 WEST LINCOLN AVENUE)
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Anaheim ("Planning Commission")
did receive a verified petition to approve Conditional Use Permit No. 2019-06024 to permit the
construction of a coffee shop with a drive-through lane, Variance No. 2020-05135 to permit
fewer parking spaces than required by the Anaheim Municipal Code (“Code”), and
Administrative Adjustment No. 2020-00443 to permit front and interior landscape setbacks less
than required by the Code (herein referred to collectively as the "Proposed Project") on that
certain real property located at 2595 West Lincoln Avenue in the City of Anaheim, as generally
depicted on the map attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by this reference (the
Property"); and
WHEREAS, the Property is approximately 0.53 acres in size and is currently developed
with a vacant commercial building. The Property is located in the “C-G” General Commercial
Zone and is subject to the zoning and development standards described in Chapter 18.08
Commercial Zones) of the Code. The Land Use Element of the Anaheim General Plan
designates the Property for General Commercial land uses; and
WHEREAS, a duly noticed public hearing was scheduled before the Planning
Commission at the Civic Center in the City of Anaheim on May 11, 2020 at 5:00 p.m. to hear
and consider evidence and testimony for and against 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 the 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 "CEQA Guidelines"), and the City's Local CEQA
Procedure Manual, the City is the "lead agency" for the preparation and consideration of
environmental documents for the Proposed Project; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission also finds and determines that the effects of the
proposed project are Categorically Exempt from the requirements to prepare additional
environmental documentation per California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines,
Section 15303, Class 3 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures). Class 3 consists
of construction and location of limited numbers of new small structures or facilities. In urbanized
areas, this exemption applies to commercial buildings not exceeding 10,000 square feet. The
proposed project is a 2,000 square foot coffee shop that would include a drive-through lane, a
take-out window, and a 200 square foot outdoor patio area; and, therefore, this exemption is
2 - PC2020-***
applicable. Pursuant to Section 15300.2 (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; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission, after due inspection, investigation and study
made by itself and in its behalf, and after due consideration of all evidence and reports offered at
said hearing pertaining to the request for Conditional Use Permit No. 2019-06024, does find and
determine the following facts:
1. The Proposed Project is an allowable use within the "C-G" Commercial Zone under
subsection .010 of Section 18.08.030.010 (Uses) of Chapter 18.08 (Commercial Zones) of the
Code, subject to a conditional use permit and the zoning and development standards of the "C-G"
General Commercial Zone;
2. The Proposed Project will not adversely affect the surrounding land uses, or the
growth and development of the area in which it is proposed to be located because the Proposed
Project has been designed to be compatible with surrounding commercial and residential uses,
all traffic flows will be provided from an arterial highway, the one story building will be in scale
with the surrounding uses, and a landscape buffer will be provided around the drive-through
lane;
3. The size and shape of the site for the Proposed Project is adequate to allow the full
development of the proposed use, in a manner not detrimental to either the particular area or
health and safety because the Proposed Project has been designed to comply with all Code
requirements (with the exception of the parking and setbacks described below), including
building height, lot coverage and landscaping;
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
number of vehicles entering and exiting the site is consistent with typical commercial businesses
that would be permitted as a matter of right within the C-G (General Commercial) zone; and
5. That 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.
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission, after due inspection, investigation and study
made by itself and in its behalf, and after due consideration of all evidence and reports offered at
said hearing with respect to the request to construct a drive-through coffee shop with fewer
parking spaces than required by the Code, has determined that Variance No. 2020-05135 should
be approved for the following reasons:
SECTION NO. 18.42.040.010 Minimum number of parking spaces.
22 spaces required; 16 spaces proposed)
3 - PC2020-***
1. That the variance, under the conditions imposed, if any, will not cause fewer off-
street parking spaces to be provided for the proposed use than the number of such spaces
necessary to accommodate all vehicles attributable to such use under the normal and reasonably
foreseeable conditions of operation of such use. The applicant’s traffic consultant studied a
similarly sited coffee shop and found the maximum parking utilization to be 14 vehicles.
Average parking utilization was found to be 10-11 vehicles. Based upon this analysis, there will
be adequate on-site parking spaces available during peak periods.
2. That the variance, under the conditions imposed, if any, will not increase the demand
and competition for parking spaces upon the public streets in the immediate vicinity of the
proposed use;
3. That the variance, under the conditions imposed, if any, will not increase the demand
and competition for parking spaces upon adjacent private property in the immediate vicinity of
the proposed use;
4. That the variance, under the conditions imposed, if any, will not increase traffic
congestion within the off-street parking areas or lots provided for the proposed use; and
5. That the variance, under the conditions imposed, if any, will not impede vehicular
ingress to or egress from adjacent properties upon the public streets in the immediate vicinity of
the proposed use
and;
WHEREAS, paragraph .0101 of Subsection .010 (Setbacks) of Section 18.08.060
Structural Setbacks) of Chapter 18.08 (Commercial Zones of the Code requires the minimum
landscaped setbacks in the Commercial Zones abutting an arterial highway, such as Lincoln and
Magnolia Avenues, to be fifteen (15) feet, "as measured from the ultimate highway right-of-way
line as designated on the Circulation Element of the General Plan" and landscaped setbacks in
the Commercial Zones abutting any Residential Zone boundary to be ten (10) feet. Because the
Proposed Project shows a setback of twelve (12) feet from the ultimate right-of-way of Lincoln
and Magnolia Avenues, and a setback of nine (9) feet from adjacent residential zones, the
applicant has requested an administrative adjustment from the setback requirements; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission does further find and determine that the request
for Administrative Adjustment No. 2020-00443 should be approved for the following reasons:
SECTION NO. 18.08.060.010.0101 Minimum front landscaped setback.
15 feet required; 12 feet proposed adjacent to
an arterial highway)
SECTION NO. 18.08.060.010.0101 Minimum interior setbacks.

1. The adjustment is consistent with the purposes and intent of the Code because there
will be adequate separation from the adjacent residential land uses and the restaurant is designed
in a manner that is sensitive to the adjacent properties. The proposed project would comply with
all other development standards of the C-G Zone, with the exception of the parking variance
described above;
2. The same or similar result cannot be achieved by using provisions in the Code that do
not require the adjustment since the only alternative to processing the adjustment is to impact the
ability to maintain vehicle queueing onsite, and in a manner that does not block parking spaces;
and
3. The adjustment will not produce a result that is out of character or detrimental to the
neighborhood as the proposed drive-through use is a compatible use in the area.

Re: SECOND SUBMITTAL LETTER OF REQUEST
Lincoln & Magnolia Starbucks Café & Drive-Thru
Dear Christine:
Please accept this second submittal of our application of the proposed new development of a 2,000 square foot
Starbucks at 2595 W. Lincoln Avenue. There is an existing 3,200SF retail building (including interior SF and
exterior canopy SF) with a double drive-thru that is now vacant but was originally occupied by a Walgreens
Pharmacy.
We are proposing to demolish the existing building and existing site improvements and construct a new building,
parking lot and required site improvements such as lighting, landscaping and trash enclosure. We do not intend
to modify the existing off-site improvements and intend to re-use the existing curb cuts in their current locations
on both Magnolia & Lincoln. We are proposing to re-use the existing pylon sign.
As part of this proposal, we are requesting two administrative adjustments for the front and rear landscape set-
backs and a variance to reduce the required parking. These requests are detailed below.
SUMMARY OF STARBUCKS OPERATIONS
Starbucks is requesting 24 hours of operation for both the café and the drive-thru.
Starbucks typically has their deliveries scheduled between the hours of 11pm to 4am daily.
Starbucks will have 4-6 employees (aka partners) on shift.
The drive-thru should normally function at 45 seconds from order point to pick-up window
with the exception of large and/or complicated orders).
ATTACHMENT NO. 2
2 of 3
5070 N 40th St #210, Phoenix, AZ 85018
The drive-thru speaker uses technology that monitors ambient noise levels and decreases its
volume when ambient noises are low (i.e. evening and early morning).
CUP REQUEST
We are requesting approval of a CUP for the proposed drive-thru. We have included the required development
application for our CUP request, a $10,000 check for the depositor’s trust fund (DTF), our environmental
information form and the supporting design documents for this development.
We have included a Traffic Impact Memo, Drive-Thru Queuing Study and Parking Demand Study to support this
CUP request. The findings of these technical studies did not find any adverse or negative impact of the proposed
drive-thru on the traffic or parking.
VARIANCE REQUEST
We are requesting approval of one variance to reduce our off-street parking requirements of 10 stalls per 1,000
SF. The proposed site plan requires 22 parking stalls and we are proposing to provide 16 parking stalls.
Our proposed site plan can accommodate 16 of the 22 required parking stalls based on the code requirement
of 10 stalls per 1,000 SF (20 required for interior SF and 2 required for exterior patio). We have reduced our
building square footage and exterior patio square footage as much as possible while still being acceptable to
Starbucks to operate at this location. Given the required building and patio size with the required on-site
improvements, ROW dedications, drive-thru sizing and placement and truck turning radius’, we have provided
for as many stalls as possible.
To support this variance request, we have completed a Parking Demand Study that studied another local
Starbucks and its findings concluded that their parking lot never had more than 14 cars parked in the parking
lot at peak hours. On average, ten-eleven cars were parked on-site throughout the study periods.
ADMINISTRATIVE ADJUSTMENT REQUEST
We are requesting approval for two Administrative Adjustments.
The first Administrative Adjustment request is for a 10% deviation in the landscape set-backs along the frontage
of Lincoln Avenue and Magnolia Avenue from the required 15’ to the proposed 12’. In addition to the proposed
12’ of landscape setback, we are also providing 7’ of future ROW dedication that will be landscaped. As the
future ROW is not planned to be improved by the City for the foreseeable future, the site will have a 19’
landscape setback along both street frontages.
3 of 3
5070 N 40th St #210, Phoenix, AZ 85018
The second Administrative Adjustment request is for a 10% deviation in the landscape set-backs along the
northern and eastern property lines where the project abuts a residential zone boundary and requires a
minimum 10’ setback. We are providing a minimum of 9’ landscape setback along both of these boundaries, a
10% reduction. The northern property line has a minimum of 9’ at one point but increase to 10’ as it continues
traveling east.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask. We look forward to working with the City of Anaheim
on another successful Starbucks development.
Sincerely,
Katie Rounds

Re: LETTER OF OPERATION
Lincoln & Magnolia Starbucks Café & Drive-Thru
Dear Christine:
As requested, below is a summary of the proposed operations for the Starbucks at Lincoln & Magnolia.
SUMMARY OF STARBUCKS OPERATIONS
Starbucks is requesting 24 hours of operation for both the café and the drive-thru.
Starbucks typically has their deliveries scheduled between the hours of 11pm to 4am daily.
Starbucks will normally have 4-6 employees (aka partners) on shift.
The drive-thru should normally function at 45 seconds from order point to pick-up window
with the exception of large and/or complicated orders).
The drive-thru speaker uses technology that monitors ambient noise levels and decreases its
volume when ambient noises are low (i.e. evening and early morning).
This Starbucks location will utilize two parking stalls as MOP stalls (mobile order pick-up stalls)
to improve the customer mobile ordering experience and increase pick-ups times.
Where small bin trash enclosures are required/used, Starbucks will contract directly with a
private trash collection company to service the trash bins as necessary.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask. We look forward to working with the City of Anaheim
on another successful Starbucks development.
Sincerely,
Katie Rounds

RE: Drive-Through Queuing Study for the Proposed Starbucks at the Intersection of Lincoln
Avenue and Magnolia Avenue in the City of Anaheim
Dear Ms. Rounds:
Albert Grover & Associates (AGA) is pleased to present to you this drive-through queuing and mobile/online order
parking study memorandum regarding a proposed Starbucks at the intersection of Lincoln Avenue and Magnolia
Avenue in the City of Anaheim. This analysis is based on the project site plan, parking and queuing data collected at a
similar site, an engineering field review of existing conditions at the similar site, and typical traffic engineering practices.
Project Description
The proposed project site is a 0.53-acre parcel located at 2595 W. Lincoln Avenue on the northeast corner of the
intersection of Lincoln Avenue and Magnolia Avenue in the City of Anaheim. The project site has an existing building
with associated parking lots which was previously permitted and operated as a pharmacy with a drive-through service
window. Per the proposed project site plan, the existing building is proposed to be demolished and replaced by a 2,000
square-foot Starbucks coffee shop with a drive-through service window (Exhibit 1 next page).
The proposed site plan includes a drive-through queuing lane with storage for up to eight vehicles and additional on-
site storage for up to two additional “overflow” vehicles. The proposed site plan also includes 16 parking spaces,
including two ADA-compliant parking spaces adjacent to the Starbucks building and two Mobile Order Pick -up (MOP)
stalls. There are two driveways that provide access to the facility, one along Magnolia Avenue and another through
Lincoln Avenue, which are expected to be used similarly as both streets lead to freeways and carry similar traffic
volumes.

Similar Site Study
For this study, a similar site in the City of Santa Ana was chosen to gain an understanding of drive -through queuing,
mobile/online order parking, and traffic conditions at an existing Starbucks of similar size and location. Online Order
Pick-up parking utilization and queuing data was collected on Tuesday, December 17, 2019 at the existing Starbucks
at 2301 N Tustin Avenue #A, Santa Ana CA, 92705 located on the northeast corner of the intersection of Tustin Avenue
and Santa Clara Avenue. This Starbucks is of similar size to the proposed project, has a drive-through service lane
with storage for about eight vehicles, and has two existing Online Order Pick -up stalls. As the existing study location
has only been operating for a few of months, it is currently not shown on Google Earth. See Exhibit 2 for a sketch and
Exhibit 3 for Comparable Study Location picture.

Drive-Through Queuing Study
Since Starbucks’ primary demand is during the morning commute, drive-through queues at the similar site were studied
for the AM peak period only. Queuing data collected on Tuesday, December 17, 2019, in five-minute increments from
6:30 am to 9:30 am showed that the maximum queue size was 7 vehicles, occurring for approximately 10 minutes
around 7:05 am, and again for about 5 minutes at 7:55 am. The drive-through peak hour was observed to begin at
7:00am (Table 1), during which the average queue size was approximately six vehicles, less than the drive-through
storage capacity of eight vehicles.

Mobile/Online Order Parking Study
The project location includes two proposed parking stalls designated for patrons who place their orders online. The
comparable study location in Santa Ana was chosen in part because it has two existing “Online Order Parking” stalls,
similar to the proposed project. The usage of these stalls was studied alongside the queuing data on Tuesday,
December 17, 2019 on a minute-by-minute basis from 6:30 am to 9:30 am. During the three studied hours, a total of
19 vehicles parked in the two designated stalls. With the exception of a couple of outliers, the average duration of
parking at the mobile/online order pick-up spaces was just over 3 minutes. With the quick turnover of parking at the
online order parking spaces, there is a stronger likelihood of more patrons ordering via online/mobile and potentially
reducing the drive-through demand/queuing for the Starbucks. See Exhibit 4 and Table 2 for study details.

RE: Queuing and parking study for proposed Starbucks at the intersection of Lincoln Avenue
and Magnolia Avenue in the City of Anaheim
Dear Ms. Rounds:
Albert Grover & Associates (AGA) is pleased to present to you this trip generation memorandum regarding a
proposed Starbucks at the intersection of Lincoln Avenue and Magnolia Avenue in the City of Anaheim. This analysis
is based on the project site plan, parking and queuing data collected at a similar site, an engineering field review of
existing conditions at the similar site, and typical traffic engineering practices.
Project Description
The proposed project site is a 0.53-acre parcel located at 2595 W. Lincoln Avenue on the northeast corner of the
intersection of Lincoln Avenue and Magnolia Avenue in the City of Anaheim. The project site has an existing building
with associated parking lots which was previously permitted and operated as a pharmacy with a drive-through service
window. Per the proposed project site plan, the existing building is proposed to be demolished and replaced by a
2,000 sf Starbucks coffee shop with a drive-through service window (Figure 1, next page). The proposed site plan
includes a drive-through queuing lane with storage for up to eight vehicles and additional on-site storage for up to
three additional “overflow” vehicles. The proposed site plan also includes sixteen parking spaces, including two ADA-
compliant parking spaces adjacent to the Starbucks building.
Similar Site Study
For this study, a similar site within the City of Anaheim was chosen to gain an understanding of drive-through,
parking, and traffic conditions at an existing Starbucks of similar size and location. Parking utilization and queuing
data was collected on Wednesday, September 4, and Saturday, September 7, 2019 at the existing Starbucks at 1134
State College Boulevard, located on the southeast corner of the intersection of State College Boulevard, Placentia
Avenue, and Romneya Drive (Figure 2, next page). This Starbucks is of similar size to the proposed project,
approximately 2,000 sf, and has a drive-through service lane with storage for about eight vehicles. The similar site
parking lot has twenty parking spaces available, two of which are ADA-compliant.

Drive-Through Queuing Study
Since Starbucks’ primary demand is during the morning commute, drive-through queues at the similar site were
studied for the AM peak period only. Queuing data collected on Wednesday, September 4, 2019, in five-minute
increments from 6:30 – 9:30am showed that the maximum queue size was 11 vehicles, occurring for approximately
15 minutes around 7:00am. The drive-through peak hour was observed to begin at 6:40am (Table 1), during which
the average queue size was approximately seven vehicles, or less than the drive-through storage capacity.
Parking Demand Study
An engineering field review of the similar site determined that although the parking lot is shared by the Starbucks as
well as the adjacent salon and dentistry, the main activity is related to Starbucks. Per field observations and
interviews that during the salon and dentistry operating hours, four vehicles parking on-site belong to their staff.
Therefore, to be conservative, the parking spaces reserved for the dentistry as well as the staff-parked vehicles are
not considered in the Starbucks similar site data. Parking utilization data collected in fifteen-minute increments during
the weekday AM and PM peak periods as well as a Saturday midday peak period showed that the maximum parking
utilization was 14 vehicles, occurring for approximately 30 minutes around 8:00am and 4:00pm on Wednesday,
September 4, 2019, while on average about 11 cars were parked on-site throughout the study periods (Table 2).

Summary
The AM peak period queuing data collected at the similar study site showed a maximum queue size of 11 vehicles.
As the proposed project site plan includes on-site queuing storage capacity of up to 11 vehicles, it is expected that
the proposed Starbucks drive-through service operations would not affect traffic flows on the adjacent roadways.
With an expected average queue size of seven vehicles, the drive-through queues are generally expected to be fully
contained within the proposed drive-through queuing lane, with storage for up to eight vehicles, for most of the AM
peak period.
Similarly, the peak-period parking utilization data collected at the similar study site showed a maximum parking
utilization of 14 vehicles, with an average over all peak periods of about 10-11 vehicles. Therefore, it is expected that
the proposed project site plan, containing 16 parking spaces, would be adequate for the expected Starbucks
operations, with 2-5 surplus parking spaces available during the peak periods.
We trust that this trip generation analysis will be helpful to you, the project, and the City. Should you have any
questions regarding this project’s traffic characteristics, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Subject: Starbucks Coffee Shop Lincoln/Magnolia
Attn: Christine Nguyen
I have had a Carbon Creek, gray & white 2 story condominium at 173D N. Magnolia Ave.,
since 1982. Which is located across the street very close to the proposed Starbucks location on
the corner of Lincoln & Magnolia. My unit is located on the street side facing Magnolia, &
directly across the street from the large Apartment complex next door to the Starbucks project.
Over the years, the morning & evening commuter traffic - utilizing Magnolia as access to
North & South 5 fwys & the East & West 91 fwys (located a few minutes away between
LaPalma & Orangethorpe) has significantly increased. Carbon Creek has two driveways to
enter & exit the complex of almost 100 units. Most units have 2 cars each. Due to the
significant street traffic, it is impossible & dangerous to exit the complex either left or right
during commuter hours. The traffic backs up from the light at Magnolia & Lincoln all the way
back to the driveways at Victory Baptist Church. By the time the light turns green & traffic
starts to move towards Lincoln, the next volley of traffic has come behind the prior round. On
a rare occasion, a driver waiting in the right lane on Magnolia approaching Lincoln, will allow
you to exit right the Carbon Creek driveway closest to Lincoln. It is NEVER possible to make
a left onto Magnolia. The exhaust fumes from all those cars, comes right into the Magnolia-
facing Carbon Creek buildings, both 1st & 2nd floors.
Carbon Creek is already being faced with even more traffic, from the new 3-story, 59 unit
townhouse complex, & new replacement church buildings, which is scheduled to be built right

next door to Carbon Creek on the current Victory Baptist Church lot. Also assuming 2 cars per
unit. That property will also have two exit/entrances driveways. One of those driveways is
literally not many steps away from one of the Carbon Creek driveways. That complex will
also have major issues exiting onto Magnolia.
Note that the Apartment complex directly across the street from Carbon Creek, faces the very
same entrance & exit access to their units.
To add a very popular drive-through Coffee Shop on the corner of Magnolia & Lincoln,
which will also apparently have less spaces to park per code, & a very small area to queue)
which patrons will access & exit on Magnolia during peak traffic, will slow & backup the
traffic crossing Lincoln. This will make that area bumper to bumper dangerous, & will slow
down the amount of cars able to cross the lights. Adding even more pollution & fumes with
idling cars. We already have 2 long time restaurants on the other corners, KFC & a Mexican
restaurant.
KFC has a large lot which accommodates a large volume of cars to either park or queue the
drive through. The Starbucks lot will not in either case. The volume of cars accessing the
Mexican restaurant has never been an issue & does not have a drive through.
Another point to bring up, the cars parked in front of the Apartment complex, used to have a
terrible issue of traffic running into the backs of their cars at night. Whether it was drunk
drivers is unknown, but it used to happen frequently after cars would cross the
Lincoln/Magnolia intersection. There was a fatality years ago in front of Carbon Creek when a
car ran into a parked car.
If you have any questions, please call me on my cell, 714-299-4239, as this is of great
concern.

I received a notice about the project that is being consider at 2595 West Lincoln
Avenue. I believe it will be a great project to have in my neighborhood.
I want to say thank you to the city for letting us comment on this project. In my point of
view to have a coffee shop is a lot better than the Smoke Shop that open across the
street last year, if we allow a smoke store to open we can do the same thing for the
coffee store that is being consider.

Date:Monday, May 11, 2020 9:39:31 AM
Good Day.
David Klawe, West Anaheim Resident.
I would like to discuss Item #4, the proposed Starbucks at the corner of Lincoln and Magnolia.
First off, I support the project, and think it will be a good improvement for the neighborhoods
nearby.
But reading over the staff report, one thing caught my eye, and I am asking you to take this into
consideration during your discussions.
The applicant is requesting to operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week, for both the café and the
drive-through with four to six employees per shift.
I am worried about the late night/early morning hours, and how it could impact the area.
I feel some type of conditions should be placed on the project should be placed to protect the
neighborhood, and feel the Anaheim Police Department, especially the Homeless Outreach Team
H.O.T.), would be the best to figure out how to address my concerns.
I have no objection to a 24 hour Drive Through, as it should have minimal impact on the area as
proposed.
On the other hand, the indoor service, and outdoor patio activity bothers me, especially in the light
of the corporate policy of allowing bathroom use without the requirement of being a customer.
Maybe a Uniformed Security Guard, maybe posted No Loitering signs, maybe closing the inside/patio
at certain hours to deter the nearby Homeless population using the location as a gathering spot.
I think asking the H.O.T. officers what type of conditions would make sure my fear of the location
becoming a Homeless Hangout doesn’t come true is a reasonable request to help protect the
neighborhood.
I would like to finish by stating how the Commissioners, with help from Ted White, the Planning
Department staff, plus anyone else who helped get the telephonic system up and running has done
a great job in holding these meetings.
Yes, there have been a few minor glitches, but overall, it has run very smoothly.
So a big thank you, and hope everyone is staying safe and healthy.
Here is hoping we can return to traditional meeting very soon.

The new express carwash building is proposed at the rear of the existing L-shaped lot, which has
frontages on both Euclid Street and Romneya Drive. Vehicular access would be provided from
Euclid Street with one-way on-site circulation through the project. Customers would enter the
facility through a queuing lane that would open to two lanes at the pay point, and proceed to the
carwash tunnel entrance in a single lane. The one-way, counterclockwise traffic pattern would
require customers exiting the tunnel to either pull into a vacuum stall or exit the site. As
depicted below, the carwash would maintain reciprocal access with properties to the north
commercial center) and south (gas station).
SITE PLAN
With an existing raised median on Euclid Street, travel to and from the project site will require a
right-turn in/right-turn out traffic movement, unless exiting at the commercial center’s signalized
intersection to the north. There will be no access to or from Romneya Drive; an escape lane
exit) access is designed to the public alley to the east.
A total of 22 parking spaces are proposed for the carwash facility, all of which are designated as
vacuum stalls. Eight employee parking spaces would be provided on the adjacent lot to the north
through the execution of a reciprocal parking and access agreement. Both parcels are owned by
the same property owner. Proposed hours of operation for the carwash are from 7:00 a.m. to
8:00 p.m. daily. There would be 3 to 4 staff present during business hours, depending on
demand.

The proposed 15-foot, 8-inch high carwash building is designed with scored concrete block,
stucco finishes and Googie-style features consisting of star accents and whimsical vertical
elements, painted with futuristic shades of blue and grey. The seven vertical pylons are proposed
at 43-foot, 3-inch in height and are approximately 9-inches wide.
WEST ELEVATION (Euclid Street)
An 8-foot high masonry sound wall is designed as part of the building at both the tunnel entrance
and exit to mitigate any noise impacts resulting from the carwash. The carwash building, sound
walls, vacuum equipment enclosure, and trash enclosure are all designed with the same concrete
scored block material.
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 the Zoning 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.
The Municipal Code permits carwash facilities in the C-G zone subject to the approval of a
conditional use permit in order to determine compatibility with surrounding land uses. An
analysis of on-site circulation, parking, noise and the increased height related to the carwash is
described in more detail below.
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2019-06042
May 11, 2020
Page 4 of 6
On-Site Circulation/Queuing: A Trip Generation and Queuing Analysis (Attachment 7) was
prepared for the proposed carwash facility. The carwash lanes would allow up to 19 vehicles to
queue on site. Based on a field surveys of an existing Fast5Xpress carwash facilities in Irvine
and Norwalk, the study concluded that a maximum of 13 vehicles were observed in the queue
peak hour period. The analysis concludes that based on the measured service rate of 90 vehicles
per hour, the length of the carwash lanes would be able to accommodate on-site queuing to
prevent vehicles from spilling over into any parking lot drive aisles or public roadways.
The Trip Generation study concluded that with credits from the existing and former uses
restaurant building and liquor store), an anticipated net increase of 21 daily trips would be
generated by the project, of which there would be a 58 trip decrease in the AM-peak hour, and a
3 trip decrease in the PM-peak hour. Using the surveyed trip generation rates for the proposed
use and the ITE rates for existing and former uses, the net trip generation total would be 420
daily trips, including 10 trips in the AM peak hour and 321 trips in the PM peak hour. These
counts did not warrant the preparation of a Traffic Impact Analysis based upon the City criteria
of 100 trips during either the AM or PM peak hours.
Parking: The Municipal Code does not specify a parking standard for carwash facilities. The
Code requires the submittal of a parking demand study/parking justification letter to determine
the parking requirement. The parking demand analysis (Attachment 6) contains information of
survey data provided for the Fast5Xpress carwash facility at 407 South State College Boulevard,
which was recently approved by the Planning Commission. The survey was collected at an
existing Fast5Xpress location in Irvine. The analysis concluded that 16 off-street parking spaces
13 vacuum, 3 standard) would provide adequate parking for the maximum demand of the
express carwash facility. The proposed project would provide 22 vacuum stalls and 8 employee
parking spaces on the adjacent lot under the same ownership.
With the data presented, the average time a vacuum stall was occupied during the peak hour of
the survey was approximately 18 minutes. The business operation does not involve walk-in
facilities or on-site sales that would increase the demand for additional parking. During periods
where no vacuum spaces are available, customers will be required to leave the site. Based on the
parking justification letter provided by the applicant, staff believes that the number of on-site
parking spaces is adequate to accommodate the proposed business without impact to the
surrounding public streets or properties.
Noise: A Noise Impact Analysis was prepared by Vista Environmental (Attachment 5) to
address potential impacts resulting from the carwash. The Municipal Code limits noise at any
point on residential properties to 60 dBA. As such, the analysis involved taking noise
measurements from two locations on the subject property: 1) on a fence east of the project site at
the apartment complex; and 2) on a tree located on the eastern property line approximately 35
feet south of the north property line.
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2019-06042
May 11, 2020
Page 5 of 6
In order to determine the noise impacts, reference noise measurements were provided by the
carwash manufacturer, along with utilizing a Federal Highway Administration’s (FHWA) noise
model prepared by Caltrans. The analysis also included the proposed installation an 8-foot high
masonry wall extending north and south of the carwash building wall. The study concluded that
the noise generated by the carwash at the nearest residential property line across the public alley
would not exceed 60 dBA at the nearest residential property line. The worse-case operational
noise level of 59.7 dBA would be within the City’s noise standard. It should be noted that the
noise level at this location is currently 61.4 dBA and that the noise levels generated by the
carwash would be below these ambient noise levels.
Height Exception: The seven vertical architectural pylons will exceed the maximum height limit
of 20 feet for 1-story structures within 150 feet of a residentially zoned property. As shown in
the rendering below, the vertical elements are architectural features that represent the “Googie-
style” which began in Southern California in the 1950’s. The applicant indicates the spires will
have no impact to massing nor will they create an “urban canyon” along the public alley east of
the building. The increased height will not impact residents views, natural daylighting, or their
quality of life. The residential dwelling units are located approximately 90 feet from the alley
and are separated from the carwash site with garage/carport structures. Furthermore, there are
no west facing windows on the residential units. For these reasons, staff believes that the
proposed architecture is designed in a manner that is sensitive to the adjacent residential project
to the east and supports the increased height for these pylon features.

Environmental Impact Analysis: Staff recommends the Planning Commission find that the effects
of the proposed project are Categorically Exempt from the requirements to prepare additional
environmental documentation per California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, Section
15303, Class 3 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures). Class 3 consists of
construction and location of limited numbers of new small structures or facilities. In urbanized areas,
this exemption applies to up four commercial buildings that comprise a total of 10,000 square feet.
The proposed project is for a 4,162 square foot express carwash. Pursuant to Section 15300.2 (c)
and 15303 of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations, and as further described in this staff
report, 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 express carwash use would be developed and operated in a manner that is
compatible with the surrounding area. The proposed project is consistent with the General
Commercial zoning for the property and with the requested height exception for the architectural
Googie-style” pylons, will be designed to ensure that the vehicular circulation, parking, and
noise generated by the carwash operations do not impact surrounding properties. Staff
recommends that the Planning Commission approve the request for the new carwash facility.

A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION
OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM APPROVING
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2019-06042 AND
MAKING CERTAIN FINDINGS IN CONNECTION THEREWITH
DEV2019-00097)
1240 NORTH EUCLID STREET)
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Anaheim ("Planning Commission")
did receive a verified petition for Conditional Use Permit No. 2019-06042 to construct a new
express carwash facility with increased building height for architectural pylon features (herein
referred to as the "Proposed Project") on that certain real property located at 1240 North Euclid
Street in the City of Anaheim, as generally depicted on the map attached hereto as Exhibit A and
incorporated herein by this reference (the "Property"), pursuant to Section 18.60.090 of the
Anaheim Municipal Code (“Code”); and
WHEREAS, the Property is approximately 1.42- acres in size and is developed with a
vacant commercial building and an existing convenience market. The Property is located in the
C-G (General Commercial) zone and is, therefore, subject to the zoning and development standards
described in Chapter 18.08 (Commercial zones) of the Code. The Land Use Element of the
Anaheim General Plan designates the Property for Corridor Residential land uses; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did hold a public hearing at the Civic Center in the
City of Anaheim on May 11, 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 Conditional Use Permit No.
2019-06042, 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 the 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 "CEQA Guidelines"), and the City's Local CEQA
Procedure Manual, the City is the "lead agency" for the preparation and consideration of
environmental documents for the Proposed Project; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission also finds and determines that the effects of the
proposed construction of a new carwash 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 construction 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
2 - PC2020-***
cause a significant effect on the environment and is, therefore, categorically exempt from the
provisions of CEQA; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission, after due inspection, investigation and study made
by itself and in its behalf, and after due consideration of all evidence and reports offered at said
hearing pertaining to the request for Conditional Use Permit No. 2019-06042, does find and
determine the following facts:
1. The Proposed Project is an allowable use within the "C-G" Commercial Zone under
subsection .010 of Section 18.08.030.010 (Uses) of Chapter 18.08 (Commercial Zones) of the
Code, subject to a conditional use permit and the zoning and development standards of the "C-G"
General Commercial Zone; and
2. The request to permit the Proposed Project would not adversely affect the adjoining
land uses, or the growth and development of the area because the conditions of approval contained
herein will mitigate any potential impacts to surrounding residential properties. Furthermore, the
Proposed Project will improve the aesthetics on the Property and the overall appearance of the
project site, and would not have an adverse effect on adjacent residential and commercial uses;
and
3. The size and shape of the site is adequate to allow the full development of the Proposed
Project in a manner not detrimental to either the particular area nor to the health and safety of the
public because the site can accommodate the parking, traffic flows, and circulation without
creating detrimental effects on adjacent properties; and
4. The traffic generated by the Proposed Project would 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 the Proposed Project will not exceed the anticipated volumes of traffic on the
surrounding streets and adequate parking will be provided to accommodate the future uses; and
5. The granting of the conditional use permit will not be detrimental to the health and
safety of the citizens of the City of Anaheim because the Proposed Project would significantly
improve the overall appearance of the project site, and is compatible with the surrounding area,
subject to compliance with the conditions contained herein; and
6. The granting of the increased height for seven (7) architectural pylon features will not
provide additional massing and impacts to adjacent properties. The 9-inch wide pylons are
architectural features that are an essential element of the “Googie” design. The features will
enhance the character of the carwash structure without adversely impacting the neighboring
properties; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission determines that the evidence in the record
constitutes substantial evidence to support the actions taken and the findings made in this
Resolution, that the facts stated in this Resolution are supported by substantial evidence in the
record, including testimony received at the public hearing, the staff presentations, the staff report
and all materials in the project files. There is no substantial evidence, nor are there other facts,
that detract from the findings made in this Resolution. The Planning Commission expressly
declares that it considered all evidence presented and reached these findings after due
consideration of all evidence presented to it.
3 - PC2020-***
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that this Planning Commission does hereby
approve Conditional Use Permit No. 2019-06042 at the Property, contingent upon and subject to

1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Purpose of Analysis and Study Objectives
This Noise Impact Analysis has been prepared to determine the noise impacts associated with the
proposed Googie Car Wash project proposed project or proposed car wash).The following is provided
in this report:
A description of the study area and the proposed project;
Information regarding the fundamentals of noise;
Information regarding the fundamentals of vibration;
A description of the local noise guidelines and standards;
An evaluation of the current noise environment;
An analysis of the potential short term construction related noise impacts from the proposed
project;and,
An analysis of long term operations related noise impacts from the proposed project.
1.2 Site Location and Study Area
The project site is located in the northwestern portion of the City of Anaheim City)at 1250 N Euclid Street.
The approximately 0.8 acre project site currently contains a vacant restaurant building,a liquor store and
parking lot.The project site is bounded by a commercial retail center to the north,a public alley and
residential apartments to the east,Romneya Drive and medical office uses to the south,a gas station to
the southeast,and Euclid Street and commercial retail uses to the west.The project study area is shown
in Figure 1.
Sensitive Receptors in Project Vicinity
The nearest sensitive receptors to the project site is the residential apartment complex that is as near as
20 feet east of the project site.It should be noted that although the residential apartment complex
property line is as near as 20 feet from the project site,the westernmost 60 feet of the apartment complex
is utilized for vehicle parking,so the nearest outdoor living areas is as near as 80 feet east of the project
site.The nearest school to the project site is Patrick Henry Elementary School,which is located as near as
0.4 mile east of the project site.
1.3 Proposed Project Description
The proposed project would consist of the development of an automated car wash orientated in a north
south direction and setback from the east property line by 5 feet.The queue line would start on the
western portion of the project site and run adjacent to the gas station that is located on the southwest
corner of the project site and will enter the south side of the car wash structure and exit the north side of
the car wash structure.There will be an escape lane just before the entrance of the car wash that exits
to the public alley on the east side.The exit lane of the carwash will make a left turn and enter a parking
area on the north side of the project site that will include 22 vacuum stall parking spaces.On the east
side of the project site,a minimum 8 foot high concrete masonry unit cmu)wall will be constructed that
will run from the northeast corner of the car wash structure,around the trash enclosure and on the east

side of the vacuum enclosure and terminate at the north property line.There will also be a minimum 8
foot high cmu wall constructed that will run from the southeast corner of the car wash structure to 10
feet to the south.The proposed site plan is shown in Figure 2.
1.4 Standard Noise Regulatory Conditions
The proposed project will be required to comply with the following regulatory conditions from the City of
Anaheim and State of California.
City of Anaheim Municipal Code
The following lists the City of Anaheim Municipal Code regulations that are applicable to all development
projects in the City.
Section 6.70.010 Sound Pressure Levels
Section 6.70.010 of the City’s Municipal Code restricts noise levels to 60 dBA at any point on the property
line.Section 6.70.010 exempts construction noise that occurs between 7:00 a.m.and 7:00 p.m.from the
60 dBA stationary noise standard.Compliance with this regulation will reduce the construction related
and operational related noise impacts to the nearby sensitive receptors.
State of California Rules
The following lists the State of California rules that are applicable to all industrial projects in the State.
California Vehicle Code Section 27200 27207 On Road Vehicle Noise
California Vehicle Code Section 27200 27207 provides noise limits for vehicles operated in California.For
vehicles over 10,000 pounds noise is limited to 88 dB for vehicles manufactured before 1973,86 dB for
vehicles manufactured before 1975,83 dB for vehicles manufactured before 1988,and 80 dB for vehicles
manufactured after 1987.All measurements are based at 50 feet from the vehicle.
California Vehicle Section 38365 38380 Off Road Vehicle Noise
California Vehicle Code Section 38365 38380 provides noise limits for off highway motor vehicles
operated in California.92 dBA for vehicles manufactured before 1973,88 dBA for vehicles manufactured
before 1975,86 dBA for vehicles manufactured before 1986,and 82 dBA for vehicles manufactured after
December 31,1985.All measurements are based at 50 feet from the vehicle.
1.5 Summary of Analysis Results
The following is a summary of the proposed project’s impacts with regard to the State CEQA Guidelines
noise checklist questions.
Generation of a substantial temporary or permanent increase in ambient noise levels in the
vicinity of the project in excess of standards established in the local general plan or noise
ordinance,or applicable standards of other agencies?
Less than significant impact.
Generation of excessive groundborne vibration or groundborne noise levels?
Less than significant impact.

For a project located within the vicinity of a private airstrip or an airport land use plan or,where
such a plan has not been adopted,within two miles of a public airport or public use airport,
would the project expose people residing or working in the project area to excessive noise levels?
No impact.
1.6 Project Design Features Incorporated into the Proposed Project
This analysis was based on implementation of the following project design features that are either already
depicted on the proposed project site plan and architectural plans or are required from County and State
Regulations.
Project Design Feature 1:
The project applicant shall install silencers onto the proposed car wash’s dry blowers,which shall
be no less effective than the Sonny’s Dryer Blower Silencers that have been demonstrated to
reduce the noise level between 1.1 and 4.5 dB see Appendix C).
Project Design Feature 2:
The project applicant shall require that the east wall of the car wash structure is constructed with
no vents,window,or other openings that would have the potential to emit noise.
1.7 Mitigation Measures for the Proposed Project
This analysis found that through adherence to the noise and vibration regulations detailed in Section 1.4
and the Project Design Features detailed in Section 1.6 above would limit all noise and vibration impacts
to less than significant levels.No mitigation measures are required for the proposed project with respect
to noise and vibration impacts.

2.0 NOISE FUNDAMENTALS
Noise is defined as unwanted sound.Sound becomes unwanted when it interferes with normal activities,
when it causes actual physical harm or when it has adverse effects on health.Sound is produced by the
vibration of sound pressure waves in the air.Sound pressure levels are used to measure the intensity of
sound and are described in terms of decibels.The decibel dB)is a logarithmic unit which expresses the
ratio of the sound pressure level being measured to a standard reference level.A weighted decibels dBA)
approximate the subjective response of the human ear to a broad frequency noise source by
discriminating against very low and very high frequencies of the audible spectrum.They are adjusted to
reflect only those frequencies which are audible to the human ear.
2.1 Noise Descriptors
Noise Equivalent sound levels are not measured directly,but are calculated from sound pressure levels
typically measured in A weighted decibels dBA).The equivalent sound level Leq)represents a steady
state sound level containing the same total energy as a time varying signal over a given sample period.
The peak traffic hour Leq is the noise metric used by California Department of Transportation Caltrans)
for all traffic noise impact analyses.
The Day Night Average Level Ldn)is the weighted average of the intensity of a sound,with corrections
for time of day,and averaged over 24 hours.The time of day corrections require the addition of ten
decibels to sound levels at night between 10 p.m.and 7 a.m.While the Community Noise Equivalent Level
CNEL)is similar to the Ldn,except that it has another addition of 4.77 decibels to sound levels during the
evening hours between 7 p.m.and 10 p.m.These additions are made to the sound levels at these time
periods because during the evening and nighttime hours,when compared to daytime hours,there is a
decrease in the ambient noise levels,which creates an increased sensitivity to sounds.For this reason the
sound appears louder in the evening and nighttime hours and is weighted accordingly.The City of
Anaheim relies on the CNEL noise standard to assess transportation related impacts on noise sensitive
land uses.
2.2 Tone Noise
A pure tone noise is a noise produced at a single frequency and laboratory tests have shown that humans
are more perceptible to changes in noise levels of a pure tone.For a noise source to contain a pure
tone,”there must be a significantly higher A weighted sound energy in a given frequency band than in the
neighboring bands,thereby causing the noise source to stand out”against other noise sources.A pure
tone occurs if the sound pressure level in the one third octave band with the tone exceeds the average of
the sound pressure levels of the two contiguous one third octave bands by:
5 dB for center frequencies of 500 hertz Hz)and above
8 dB for center frequencies between 160 and 400 Hz
15 dB for center frequencies of 125 Hz or less
2.3 Noise Propagation
From the noise source to the receiver,noise changes both in level and frequency spectrum.The most
obvious is the decrease in noise as the distance from the source increases.The manner in which noise
reduces with distance depends on whether the source is a point or line source as well as ground
absorption,atmospheric effects and refraction,and shielding by natural and manmade features.Sound
Googie Car Wash Project,Noise Impact Analysis
City of Anaheim
Page 7
from point sources,such as air conditioning condensers,radiate uniformly outward as it travels away from
the source in a spherical pattern.The noise drop off rate associated with this geometric spreading is 6
dBA per each doubling of the distance dBA/DD).Transportation noise sources such as roadways are
typically analyzed as line sources,since at any given moment the receiver may be impacted by noise from
multiple vehicles at various locations along the roadway.Because of the geometry of a line source,the
noise drop off rate associated with the geometric spreading of a line source is 3 dBA/DD.
2.4 Ground Absorption
The sound drop off rate is highly dependent on the conditions of the land between the noise source and
receiver.To account for this ground effect attenuation absorption),two types of site conditions are
commonly used in traffic noise models,soft site and hard site conditions.Soft site conditions account for
the sound propagation loss over natural surfaces such as normal earth and ground vegetation.For point
sources,a drop off rate of 7.5 dBA/DD is typically observed over soft ground with landscaping,as
compared with a 6.0 dBA/DD drop off rate over hard ground such as asphalt,concrete,stone and very
hard packed earth.For line sources a 4.5 dBA/DD is typically observed for soft site conditions compared
to the 3.0 dBA/DD drop off rate for hard site conditions.Calt rans research has shown that the use of soft
site conditions is more appropriate for the application of the Federal Highway Administration FHWA)
traffic noise prediction model used in this analysis.

3.0 GROUND BORNE VIBRATION FUNDAMENTALS
Ground borne vibrations consist of rapidly fluctuating motions within the ground that have an average
motion of zero.The effects of ground borne vibrations typically only cause a nuisance to people,but at
extreme vibration levels damage to buildings may occur.Although ground borne vibration can be felt
outdoors,it is typically only an annoyance to people indoors where the associated effects of the shaking
of a building can be notable.Ground borne noise is an effect of ground borne vibration and only exists
indoors,since it is produced from noise radiated from the motion of the walls and floors of a room and
may also consist of the rattling of windows or dishes on shelves.
3.1 Vibration Descriptors
There are several different methods that are used to quantify vibration amplitude such as the maximum
instantaneous peak in the vibrations velocity,which is known as the peak particle velocity PPV)or the
root mean square rms)amplitude of the vibration velocity.Due to the typically small amplitudes of
vibrations,vibration velocity is often expressed in decibels and is denoted as Lv)and is based on the rms
velocity amplitude.A commonly used abbreviation is VdB”,which in this text,is when Lv is based on the
reference quantity of 1 micro inch per second.
3.2 Vibration Perception
Typically,developed areas are continuously affected by vibration velocities of 50 VdB or lower.These
continuous vibrations are not noticeable to humans whose threshold of perception is around 65 VdB.Off
site sources that may produce perceptible vibrations are usually caused by construction equipment,steel
wheeled trains,and traffic on rough roads,while smooth roads rarely produce perceptible ground borne
noise or vibration.
3.3 Vibration Propagation
The propagation of ground borne vibration is not as simple to model as airborne noise.This is due to the
fact that noise in the air travels through a relatively uniform median,while ground borne vibrations travel
through the earth which may contain significant geological differences.There are three main types of
vibration propagation;surface,compression,and shear waves.Surface waves,or Rayleigh waves,travel
along the ground’s surface.These waves carry most of their energy along an expanding circular wave
front,similar to ripples produced by throwing a rock into a pool of water.P waves,or compression waves,
are body waves that carry their energy along an expanding spherical wave front.The particle motion in
these waves is longitudinal i.e.,in a push pull”fashion).P waves are analogous to airborne sound
waves.S waves,or shear waves,are also body waves that carry energy along an expanding spherical wave
front.However,unlike P waves,the particle motion is transverse or side to side and perpendicular to
the direction of propagation.”
As vibration waves propagate from a source,the vibration energy decreases in a logarithmic nature and
the vibration levels typically decrease by 6 VdB per doubling of the distance from the vibration source.As
stated above,this drop off rate can vary greatly depending on the soil but has been shown to be effective
enough for screening purposes,in order to identify potential vibration impacts that may need to be
studied through actual field tests.

4.0 REGULATORY SETTING
The project site is located in the City of Anaheim.Noise regulations are addressed through the efforts of
various federal,state,and local government agencies.The agencies responsible for regulating noise are
discussed below.
4.1 Federal Regulations
The adverse impact of noise was officially recognized by the federal government in the Noise Control Act
of 1972,which serves three purposes:
Promulgating noise emission standards for interstate commerce
Assisting state and local abatement efforts
Promoting noise education and research
The Federal Office of Noise Abatement and Control ONAC)was initially tasked with implementing the
Noise Control Act.However,the ONAC has since been eliminated,leaving the development of federal
noise policies and programs to other federal agencies and interagency committees.For example,the
Occupational Safety and Health Administration OSHA)agency prohibits exposure of workers to excessive
sound levels.The Department of Transportation DOT)assumed a significant role in noise control through
its various operating agencies.The Federal Aviation Administration FAA)regulates noise of aircraft and
airports.Surface transportation system noise is regulated by a host of agencies,including the Federal
Transit Administration FTA).Transit noise is regulated by the federal Urban Mass Transit Administration
UMTA),while freeways that are part of the interstate highway system are regulated by the Federal
Highway Administration FHWA).Finally,the federal government actively advocates that local
jurisdictions use their land use regulatory authority to arrange new development in such a way that noise
sensitive”uses are either prohibited from being sited adjacent to a highway or,alternately that the
developments are planned and constructed in such a manner that potential noise impacts are minimized.
Although the proposed project is not under the jurisdiction of the FTA,the FTA is the only agency that has
defined what constitutes a significant noise impact from implementing a project.The FTA recommends
developing construction noise criteria on a project specific basis that utilizes local noise ordinances if
possible.However,local noise ordinances usually relates to nuisance and hours of allowed activity and
sometimes specify limits in terms of maximum levels,but are generally not practical for assessing the
noise impacts of a construction project.Project construction noise criteria should take into account the
existing noise environment,the absolute noise levels during construction activities,the duration of the
construction,and the adjacent land uses.The FTA standards are based on extensive studies by the FTA
and other governmental agencies on the human effects and reaction to noise and a summary of the FTA
findings for a detailed construction noise assessment are provided below in Table A.

Since the federal government has preempted the setting of standards for noise levels that can be emitted
by the transportation sources,the City is restricted to regulating the noise generated by the transportation
system through nuisance abatement ordinances and land use planning.
4.2 State Regulations
Noise Standards
California Department of Health Services Office of Noise Control
Established in 1973,the California Department of Health Services Office of Noise Control ONC)was
instrumental in developing regularity tools to control and abate noise for use by local agencies.One
significant model is the Land Use Compatibility for Community Noise Environments Matrix,”which allows
the local jurisdiction to clearly delineate compatibility of sensitive uses with various incremental levels of
noise.
California Noise Insulation Standards
Title 24,Chapter 1,Article 4 of the California Administrative Code California Noise Insulation Standards)
requires noise insulation in new hotels,motels,apartment houses,and dwellings other than single family
detached housing)that provides an annual average noise level of no more than 45 dBA CNEL.When such
structures are located within a 60 dBA CNEL or greater)noise contour,an acoustical analysis is required
to ensure that interior levels do not exceed the 45 dBA CNEL annual threshold.In addition,Title 21,
Chapter 6,Article 1 of the California Administrative Code requires that all habitable rooms,hospitals,
convalescent homes,and places of worship shall have an interior CNEL of 45 dB or less due to aircraft
noise.
Government Code Section 65302
Government Code Section 65302 mandates that the legislative body of each county and city in California
adopt a noise element as part of its comprehensive general plan.The local noise element must recognize
the land use compatibility guidelines published by the State Department of Health Services.The
guidelines rank noise land use compatibility in terms of normally acceptable,conditionally acceptable,
normally unacceptable,and clearly unacceptable.
Vibration Standards
Title 14 of the California Administrative Code Section 15000 requires that all state and local agencies
implement the California Environmental Quality Act CEQA)Guidelines,which requires the analysis of
Googie Car Wash Project,Noise Impact Analysis
City of Anaheim
Page 11
exposure of persons to excessive groundborne vibration.However,no statute has been adopted by the
state that quantifies the level at which excessive groundborne vibration occurs.
Caltrans issued the Transportation and Construction Induced Vibration Guidance Manual in 2004.The
manual provides practical guidance to Caltrans engineers,planners,and consultants who must address
vibration issues associated with the construction,operation,and maintenance of Caltrans projects.
However,this manual is also used as a reference point by many lead agencies and CEQA practitioners
throughout California,as it provides numeric thresholds for vibration impacts.Thresholds are established
for continuous construction related)and transient transportation related)sources of vibration,which
found that the human response becomes distinctly perceptible at 0.25 inch per second PPV for transient
sources and 0.04 inch per second PPV for continuous sources.
4.3 Local Regulations
The City of Anaheim General Plan and Municipal Code establishes the following applicable policies related
to noise and vibration.
City of Anaheim General Plan
The following applicable goals and policies to the proposed project are from the Noise Element of the
General Plan.
Goal 1.1:Protect sensitive land uses from excessive noise through diligent planning and regulation.

5.0 EXISTING NOISE CONDITIONS
To determine the existing noise levels,noise measurements have been taken in the vicinity of the project
site.The field survey noted that noise within the proposed project area is generally characterized by
vehicle traffic on Euclid Street,which is located adjacent to the west side of the project site,Romneya
Drive that is located adjacent to the south side of the project site,and State Route 91 that is located as
near as 900 feet north of the project site.The following describes the measurement procedures,
measurement locations,noise measurement results,and the modeling of the existing noise environment.
5.1 Noise Measurement Equipment
The noise measurements were taken using two Extech Model 407780 Type 2 integrating sound level
meters programmed in slow”mode to record the sound pressure level at 3 second intervals for
approximately 24 hours in A”weighted form.In addition,the Leq averaged over the entire measuring
time and Lmax were recorded.The sound level meters and microphones were mounted approximately
four to seven feet above the ground and were equipped with a windscreen.The sound level meters were
calibrated before and after the monitoring using an Extech calibrator,Model 407766.The noise level
measurement equipment meets American National Standards Institute specifications for sound level
meters S1.4 1983 identified in Chapter 19.68.020.AA).
Noise Measurement Location
The noise monitoring locations were selected in order to obtain noise measurements of the current noise
levels on the project site and at the nearest outdoor living area at the apartment complex east of the
project site.The noise measurement sites were selected to provide a representative sampling of the
existing noise levels in the project vicinity.Descriptions of the noise monitoring sites are provided below
in Table B.Appendix A includes a photo index of the study area and noise level measurement locations.
Noise Measurement Timing and Climate
The noise measurements were recorded between 4:02 p.m.on Wednesday,September 4,2019 and 4:08
p.m.on Thursday,September 5,2019.When the noise measurements were started the sky was partly
cloudy,the temperature was 98 degrees Fahrenheit,the humidity was 38 percent,barometric pressure
was 29.60 inches of mercury,and there was no wind.Overnight,the sky was partly cloudy and the
temperature dropped to 72 degrees Fahrenheit.At the conclusion of the noise measurements,the sky
was partly cloudy,the temperature was 92 degrees Fahrenheit,the humidity was 39 percent,barometric
pressure was 29.72 inches of mercury,and the wind was blowing around three miles per hour.
5.2 Noise Measurement Results
The results of the noise level measurements are presented in Table B.The measured sound pressure levels
in dBA have been used to calculate the minimum and maximum Leq averaged over 1 hour intervals.Table
B also shows the Leq,Lmax,and CNEL,based on the entire measurement time.The noise monitoring data
printouts are included in Appendix B.Figure 3 shows a graph of the 24 hour noise measurements.

6.0 MODELING PARAMETERS AND ASSUMPTIONS
6.1 Construction Noise
The noise impacts from construction of the proposed project have been analyzed through use of the
FHWA’s Roadway Construction Noise Model RCNM).The FHWA compiled noise measurement data
regarding the noise generating characteristics of several different types of construction equipment used
during the Central Artery/Tunnel project in Boston.Table C below provides a list of the construction
equipment anticipated to be used for each phase of construction that was calculated through use of the
default equipment mixes provided by the CalEEMod model published by the South Coast Air Quality
Management District for estimating air emissions from land use projects.

2 Spec 721.560 is the equipment noise level utilized by the RCNM program.
3 The slow”response averages sound levels over 1 second increments.A fast”response averages sound levels over 0.125 second increments.
4 Actual Measured is the average noise level measured of each piece of equipment during the Central Artery/Tunnel project in Boston,
Massachusetts primarily during the 1990s.
5 For the tractor/loader/backhoe,the tractor noise level was utilized,since it is the loudest of the three types of equipment.
6 For the cement mortar mixer,the concrete mixer truck noise level was utilized.
Source:Federal Highway Administration,2006 and CalEEMod default equipment mix.
Table C also shows the associated measured noise emissions for each piece of equipment from the RCNM
model and measured percentage of typical equipment use per day.Construction noise impacts to the
nearby sensitive receptors have been calculated according to the equipment noise levels and usage
factors listed in Table C and through use of the RCNM.For each phase of construction,the equipment was
placed at 90 feet from the nearest home,which is the distance from the east property line to the nearest
Googie Car Wash Project,Noise Impact Analysis
City of Anaheim
Page 18
apartment building and each subsequent piece of equipment was placed an additional 50 feet back from
the property line.
6.2 Operational Noise
The proposed project would consist of the operation of a car wash on the project site.The proposed car
wash would utilize a car wash design and equipment from Sonny’s Enterprises,Inc Sonny’s Car Wash).
Sonny’s Car Wash performed acoustical tests on an existing car wash that utilizes similar equipment to
the proposed car wash for without and with the use of silencers on the dry blower,which is the primary
source of noise from car washes and the Report is shown in Appendix C.The project applicant has stated
that silencers would be installed on the proposed car wash’s dry blowers.Project Design Feature 1 has
been included in this analysis in order to ensure that silencers are installed on the dryer blowers.In
addition,the project applicant has stated that the east wall of the car wash structure would have no vents,
windows or other openings,which would have the potential to emit noise.Project Design Feature 2 has
been included in this analysis in order to ensure that the east wall is a solid wall with no vents,windows,
or other openings.With implementation of Project Design Feature 2,the car wash noise sources would
be limited to the exit and entrance of the car wash.
In addition to the noise created from the car wash,noise would also be created from the proposed vacuum
system,where the vacuum motor would be located within an enclosure located adjacent to the north
property line and approximately 15 feet west of the northeast corner of the project site.Sonny’s Car
Wash has performed acoustical test on the proposed vacuum,which is also shown in Appendix C.The
acoustical test of the vacuum shows that it will create a noise level of 87 dBA at 10 feet from the vacuum
unit.
The measured car wash and vacuum noise levels shown in Appendix C were inputted into a version of the
Federal Highway Administration Roadway Noise Model FHWA RD 77 108)in order to calculate the noise
level at the nearest residential property line from the proposed car wash.The FHWA RD 77 108 model
utilized in this analysis calculated the noise drop off rates through standard geometric spreading of 6 dB
per doubling of distance as well as the noise reduction provided by the proposed 8 foot high sound walls.
6.3 Vibration
Construction activity can result in varying degrees of ground vibration,depending on the equipment used
on the site.Operation of construction equipment causes ground vibrations that spread through the
ground and diminish in strength with distance.Buildings in the vicinity of the construction site respond
to these vibrations with varying results ranging from no perceptible effects at the low levels to slight
damage at the highest levels.Table D gives approximate vibration levels for particular construction
activities.The data in Table D provides a reasonable estimate for a wide range of soil conditions.

7.0 IMPACT ANALYSIS
7.1 CEQA Thresholds of Significance
Consistent with the California Environmental Quality Act CEQA)and the State CEQA Guidelines,a
significant impact related to noise would occur if a proposed project is determined to result in:
Generation of a substantial temporary or permanent increase in ambient noise levels in the
vicinity of the project in excess of standards established in the local general plan or noise
ordinance,or applicable standards of other agencies;
Generation of excessive groundborne vibration or groundborne noise levels;or
For a project located within the vicinity of a private airstrip or an airport land use plan or,where
such a plan has not been adopted,within two miles of a public airport or public use airport,would
the project expose people residing or working in the project area to excessive noise levels.
7.2 Generation of Noise Levels in Excess of Standards
The proposed project would not generate a substantial temporary or permanent increase in ambient
noise levels in the vicinity of the project in excess of standards established in the local general plan or
noise ordinance,or applicable standards of other agencies.The following section calculates the potential
noise emissions associated with the temporary construction activities and long term operations of the
proposed project and compares the noise levels to the City standards.
Construction Related Noise
The construction activities for the proposed project are anticipated to include demolition of the existing
restaurant building,liquor store and parking lot on the project site,grading of the 0.8 acre project site,
building construction of the proposed carwash,paving of the onsite driveways and parking areas,and
application of architectural coatings.Noise impacts from construction activities associated with the
proposed project would be a function of the noise generated by construction equipment,equipment
location,sensitivity of nearby land uses,and the timing and duration of the construction activities.The
nearest offsite sensitive receptors to the project site consist of residents at the residential apartment
complex,where the nearest residential structure is located 90 feet east of the project site.
Section 6.70.010 of the City’s Municipal Code exempts construction noise that occurs between 7:00 a.m.
and 7:00 p.m.from the stationary noise standard of 60 dB at the nearby residential property lines.All
construction activities associated with the proposed project would occur during the allowable hours for
construction activities as detailed in Section 6.70.010 of the Municipal Code.However,the City
construction noise standards do not provide any limits to the noise levels that may be created from
construction activities and even with adherence to the City standards,the resultant construction noise
levels may result in a significant substantial temporary noise increase to the nearby residents.
In order to determine if the proposed construction activities would create a significant substantial
temporary noise increase,the FTA construction noise criteria thresholds detailed above in Section 4.1
have been utilized,which shows that a significant construction noise impact would occur if construction
noise exceeds 80 dBA Leq over an eight hour period during the daytime at any of the nearby homes.
Googie Car Wash Project,Noise Impact Analysis
City of Anaheim
Page 21
Construction noise impacts to the nearby sensitive receptors have been calculated through use of the
RCNM and the parameters and assumptions detailed in Section 6.1 of this report.The results are shown
below in Table E and the RCNM printouts are provided in Appendix D.

Source:RCNM,Federal Highway Administration,2018
Table E shows that the greatest noise impacts would occur during the demolition phase of construction,
with a noise level as high as 79 dBA Leq at the nearest homes to the east.Table E also shows that none
of the construction phases would exceed the FTA construction noise standard of 80 dBA for residential
uses.Therefore,through adherence to allowable construction times provided in Section 6.70.010 of the
Municipal Code,the construction activities for the proposed project would not create a substantial
temporary increase in ambient noise levels that are in excess of applicable noise standards.Impacts would
be less than significant.
Operational Related Noise
The proposed project would consist of the development of an automated carwash on the east side of the
project site with the queue line starting on the western portion of the project site and would run adjacent
to the gas station that is located on the southwest corner of the project site and would enter the south
side of the carwash structure and cars would exit the north side of the carwash structure.There will be
an escape lane just before the entrance of the carwash that exits to the public alley on the east side.There
will be approximately 22 vacuum stall parking spaces located in the northern portion of the project site.
Potential noise impacts associated with the operations of the proposed project would be from project
generated vehicular traffic on the nearby roadways and from onsite activities,which have been analyzed
separately below.
Roadway Vehicular Noise
Vehicle noise is a combination of the noise produced by the engine,exhaust and tires.The level of traffic
noise depends on three primary factors 1)the volume of traffic,2)the speed of traffic,and 3)the
number of trucks in the flow of traffic.The proposed project does not propose any uses that would require
a substantial number of truck trips and the proposed project would not alter the speed limit on any
existing roadway so the proposed project’s potential offsite no ise impacts have been focused on the noise
impacts associated with the change of volume of traffic that would occur with development of the
proposed project.
Googie Car Wash Project,Noise Impact Analysis
City of Anaheim
Page 22
Policy 3 under Goal 2.I of the City’s General Plan Noise Element,requires new development that generates
increased traffic and subsequent increases in noise to noise sensitive land uses to provide appropriate
mitigation.However,since the General Plan does not define what increase in roadway noise would be
considered significant,the noise increase thresholds detailed in the City’s General Plan EIR has been
utilized in this analysis.The General Plan EIR utilized a mobile source noise threshold of:A 5 dBA increase
threshold where the without project roadway noise levels are below 65 dBA CNEL at the nearest homes;
or A 3 dBA increase threshold where the without project roadway noise levels are 65 dBA CNEL or higher.
The Trip Generation and Queuing Analysis Project at 1250 North Euclid,Anaheim Trip Generation
Memo)prepared by KOA Corporation,August 28,2109,found that the project site currently generates
754 daily trips and the proposed carwash would generate 491 daily trips.As such,development of the
proposed project would result in a reduction of 262 daily trips and would result in slightly lower project
generated roadway noise impacts in the vicinity of the project site.Therefore,no project related roadway
noise impacts would occur from implementation of the proposed project.
Onsite Noise Sources
The operation of the proposed project may create an increase in onsite noise levels from noise impacts
from the automated carwash and vacuum stall parking spaces.Section 6.70.010 of the City’s Municipal
Code limits noise created on any properties to 60 dBA at any point on the adjacent residential properties.
In order to determine the noise impacts from the proposed carwash,reference noise measurements were
provided by the car wash equipment manufacturer,which have been detailed above in Section 6.2 and
the car wash manufacturer sound tests are provided in Appendix C.In order to account for the noise
reduction provided by the proposed 8 foot high sound walls that are depicted on the proposed site plan,
the Federal Highway Administration’s FHWA)FHWA RD 77 108 noise model was utilized as depicted in
the Technical Noise Supplement to the Traffic Noise Analysis Protocol TeNS),prepared by Caltrans,
September 2013,and the noise calculation spreadsheet is provided in Appendix E.A summary of the
calculated car wash and vacuum noise levels at the nearest residential property line and at the nearest
outdoor recreation area for the apartment complex on the east side of the project site is shown in Table
F.

Table F shows that the proposed project’s operational noise levels created from the proposed car wash
and vacuum pump at the nearest residential property line would be as high as 59.74 dBA.The worst case
operational noise level of 59.7 dBA would be within the City’s noise standard of 60 dBA.It should also be
noted that the noise level at the east property line is currently 61.4 dBA Leq and at the nearest outdoor
common area for the apartment complex is 59.7 dBA Leq.The noise levels created from the operation of
the car wash and vacuum pump would be below the ambient noise levels at both of these locations.
Impacts would be less than significant.
Level of Significance
Less than significant impact.
7.3 Generation of Excessive Groundborne Vibration
The proposed project would not expose persons to or generation of excessive groundborne vibration or
groundborne noise levels.The following section analyzes the potential vibration impacts associated with
the construction and operations of the proposed project.
Construction Related Vibration Impacts
The construction activities for the proposed project are anticipated to include demolition of the existing
restaurant building,liquor store and parking lot on the project site,grading of the 0.8 acre project site,
building construction of the proposed carwash,paving of the onsite driveways and parking areas,and
application of architectural coatings.Vibration impacts from construction activities associated with the
proposed project would typically be created from the operation of heavy off road equipment.The nearest
offsite sensitive receptors to the project site consist of residents at the residential apartment complex,
where the nearest residential structure is located 90 feet east of the project site.
Since neither the City’s Municipal Code nor the General Plan provides a quantifiable vibration threshold
level,Caltrans guidance that is detailed above in Section 4.2 has been utilized,which defines the threshold
of perception from transient sources at 0.25 inch per second PPV.
The primary source of vibration during construction would be from the operation of a bulldozer.From
Table D above a large bulldozer would create a vibration level of 0.089 inch per second PPV at 25 feet.
Based on typical propagation rates,the vibration level at the nearest offsite residential structure 90 feet
away)would be 0.02 inch per second PPV.The vibration level at the nearest offsite residential structure
would be well below the 0.25 inch per second PPV threshold detailed above.Impacts would be less than
significant.
Operations Related Vibration Impacts
The proposed project would consist of the development of a car wash.The on going operation of the
proposed project would not include the operation of any known v ibration sources.Therefore,a less than
significant vibration impact is anticipated from the operation of the proposed project.
Level of Significance
Less than significant impact.

7.4 Aircraft Noise
The proposed project would not expose people residing or working in the project area to excessive noise
levels from aircraft.The nearest airport is the Fullerton Municipal Airport,located approximately 2.5 miles

TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM
Date: March 16, 2020
To: Patrick Donahue – Clearwater Communities
From: Brian Marchetti, AICP
Subject: Trip Generation and Queuing Analysis – Project at 1250 North Euclid, Anaheim
The proposed car wash facility at 1250 North Euclid Street would be an automated facility, with two
payment point locations within a single queue area. The design of the queue area, including the payment
area, can hold as many as 19 vehicles behind the entrance of the wash tunnel. The project site plan is
provided in Attachment A.
The City of Anaheim, per conditions defined in a memorandum dated August 6, 2019, has defined the
need for a trip generation analysis of the project. This analysis will allow the City to determine the need
for a project traffic impact study. The determination will be made based on the total net trips of the
project (trips generated by the proposed use, minus trips generated by the existing/former uses).
A queuing analysis is also provided in this document, to assist in verifying proper design of the site
queuing area for the proposed car wash facility.
Estimated project trip generation and queuing were reviewed using surveyed data at existing sites. Survey
data compiled for existing Fast5Xpress Carwash sites at the following locations:
3080 Main Street, Irvine (13 parking spaces, 3,100 square-foot building)
11335 Firestone Boulevard, Norwalk (21 parking spaces, 3,900 square-foot building)
The relative size of each facility is provided to illustrate the applicability to the proposed project. Data
collected on the weekdays of June 18, 2019 and June 19, 2019.
The Trip Generation Manual (10th edition) source, published by the Institute of Transportation Engineers
ITE), was used as an alternate source for trip generation data.
Trip Generation Analysis
In order to calculate gross and net trips that would be generated by the proposed use, trip generation
rates were applied from the Trip Generation Manual source.
ATTACHMENT NO. 7
Trip Generation and Queuing Analysis – Project at 1250 North Euclid, Anaheim Page 2
An existing operational use on the site is a liquor store with 2,000 square feet of floor area. A former
restaurant operated on the site thru December of 2018, a Mimi’s Café. The restaurant building remains
but is vacant, and the building size is 4,912 square feet. The restaurant building could be re-opened with
another similar use, so trip generation with and without the removal of the potential trip generation of
this use was analyzed.
Table 1 provides the project trip generation analysis.
TABLE 1 – PROJECT TRIP GENERATION ESTIMATE –
USING ITE RATES FOR ALL USES
The trip generation totals indicate that with the inclusion of credits only for the existing active use (the
liquor store), the net total trip generation would be 572 daily trips, with negative nine AM peak-hour trips
and 45 PM peak-hour trips.
With credits for the former and vacant use, the net trip generation total would be 21 daily trips, including
negative 58 trips in the AM peak hour and negative three trips in the PM peak hour.
An additional analysis was conducted using surveyed rates for the Fast5Xpress Carwash site in Norwalk.
The survey conducted at that site indicated that 1,174 daily vehicle trips were generated, including 67 trips
in the AM peak hour and 113 trips in the PM peak hour. This data is included in Table 2, along with the
trips for the existing and former uses that were calculated using ITE rates.

TABLE 2 – PROJECT TRIP GENERATION ESTIMATE –
USING SURVEY RATES FOR PROPOSED USE
Using the surveyed trip generation rates for the proposed use and the ITE rates for the existing uses, and
excluding the former and vacant use, the net trip generation total would be 971 daily trips, including 58
trips in the AM peak hour and 80 trips in the PM peak hour.
Including the former use, the net trip generation total would be 420 daily trips, including 10 trips in the
AM peak hour and 32 trips in the PM peak hour. It should be noted that pass-by trips (trips already on
routes between other origins and destinations on the adjacent roadway that deviate to the site) would
likely be around 25 percent.
Queuing Analysis
As part of site planning assistance for the applicant, KOA conducted an initial queuing analysis for the
carwash operations. The current design provides for a 19-vehicle queue area, including the payment area,
from the entrance to the tunnel to the parking drive aisle where the queuing area starts.
Using the surveyed queuing data from the Fast5Xpress Carwash site Irvine, the maximum peak-period
vehicle queue would be 13 vehicles. The current site plan provides for a 19-vehicle queue area, which
would adequately provide capacity for the expected queue defined by this data. The typical maximum
queue would not extend into any parking lot drive aisles or nearby public roadways. There would not be
any significant queuing impacts from the project.

Re: 1250 N Euclid Street
Updated Letter of Justification for Conditional Use Permit
To Whom It May Concern,
Below please find the justifications for our application for a Conditional Use Permit at the Googie Car
Wash project at 1250 N Euclid Street.
A.Indicate how the proposed use will not adversely affect the adjoining land uses or the
growth and development of the area:
The proposed project will be a redevelopment of a previously developed, now partially
vacant site, which will help revitalize the aesthetic and the economy of the area. This car
wash facility, with the latest car wash technology and efficiency, will be a great convenience
to the community.
B.Explain how the site proposed for the use is large enough to accommodate the anticipated
growth of the development and allow the continued operation without causing a detriment
to the particular area or health and safety:
Through thoughtful site designing, an extra-long queuing lane has been provided to ensure
that the car wash facility will be able to accommodate the anticipated customer demand.
Twenty-two vacuum stalls are proposed, more than most car wash facilities provide, in
order to better serve customers of the community.
C.Indicate how the traffic generated by the proposed use will not impose an undue burden
upon the roads designed and constructed to handle the traffic in the area:
As seen on the site plan, the proposed building is located at the rear of the site, which
leaves enough space for cars to drive off from Euclid Street without impacting traffic flow.
The existing curb cut on Euclid Street will be relocated and widened to allow for easier
ingress and egress from the car wash property, and the driveway to W Romneya Drive will
be closed and reconstructed per the City Standards to provide a new sidewalk, which would
be safer to pedestrians and help relieve the burden upon the intersection.
D.Indicate how approval of this Conditional Use Permit or Minor Conditional Use Permit with
any conditions of approval, will not harm the health and safety of the citizens of the City of
Anaheim.
ATTACHMENT NO. 9
3/12/20
Googie Car Wash
1250 N Euclid Street, Anaheim, CA
Page 2
As per the above, the proposed car wash project has been well designed and will not harm
the health and safety of the citizens of the City of Anaheim.
E. Updated Regarding Maximum Height Limit:
Though the maximum height of the proposed car wash is 43’-3”, that is for the maximum point
of the seven stylistic pylons that adorn the car wash tunnel and provide the brand identity and
design character of the building and project. These pylons are, in reality, less than 9” wide in
elevation and are both evocative of and essential to the Googie architectural style that Googie
Car Wash is trying to share with the City of Anaheim. There is a strong historical precedence in
Southern California (the birthplace of Googie design) of car wash facilities that feature a low-
lying horizontal plane for the actual car wash tunnel area, that are then punctuated by dramatic,
light, whimsical vertical elements. And that is our intent here, to pay homage to that uniquely
Southern California style of design and to embrace the hopeful and modern spirit of the Googie
style, translated onto a modern car wash facility that in today’s age is also embracing
technology and the future in the same way the style was first seen in the 1950s. We understand
that the letter of the law for zoning code only allows us a 20’ tall building (with parameters and
allowances for distance from the property line) but we would submit for the City’s consideration
that our main tunnel structure and massing are well below that threshold (the tunnel height is
15’-2”) and that these spires have no impact in terms of massing nor do they create an urban
canyon along the alley/easement on the eastern side of our site as they are on the west side of
our building. We completely understand the reason for height limitations in zoning ordinances
but feel strongly that the pylons proposed will have no adverse effect on neighboring residents
in the apartment complex, they will not affect the residents’ views, natural daylighting, or quality
of life. It is also important to note that within the apartments across the easement/alley, the
actual dwelling units are even further east than the property line and are separated from our
project by banks of garages/carports and have no windows facing our project (photos have
been included in this resubmittal showing the lack of windows facing our project). We
anticipate installing ‘uplights’ that will illuminate the pylons (see enclosed Pictor of existing car
wash with said uplights). We anticipate illuminating the pylons between the hours of dusk and
10:00 pm daily. We ask that Staff consider the intent of the zoning code for height limitations (to
protect surrounding uses/properties and to avoid projects out of scale with their surrounding)
and to consider the actual massing of our project and historical precedent we are following,
while trying to create an exciting amenity and interesting architecture within the City.
If you need anything else to complete your approval, please contact me directly at 949.757.0411

Good morning,
The report shows that the noise level on the project site currently exceeds the City’s 60 dB
noise standard as detailed in Section 6.70 for sound created on a project site, however the
noise level at the outdoor common area of the apartments to the east is within the 60 dB noise
standard.
After reviewing the reports, I look forward to the addition/ architecture of the new structure, if
approved.
An emphasized focus of the Planning Commission, however, should also be on limiting and/or
decreasing “noise,” to within municipal code.
Best regards,
Michael.

Subject: Carwash Plan
Due to the nature of the proposed business in relation to its intended location
along with other factors involved, it is of a great concern to many of the local
inhabitants residing in the general vicinity of the proposed establishment, both
commercial as well as residential.
Firstly, the increased traffic that the proposed establishment will cause has the
potential to impact the local inhabitants in a generally negative fashion resulting in a
more difficult living environment. Given that Romneya St. has a single lane running
North and South between Harbor and Euclid it currently deals with a large amount of
congestion as is, which is most likely due to the fact that It lies directly between the 5
and 91 freeways, both of which are vital for the local residents to commute to and
from work. Also, given that the proposed location is located next to a large residential
area that consists of single story and multiple story apartment homes, detached
single family homes along with duplex and fourplex units, the added traffic and
congestion that the proposed business will cause will not be conducive to the
standard of living for many of the local inhabitants. Another reason of concern of the
local inhabitants is the questionable characters that the proposed business can
possibly attract. These types of establishments have been known to attract transients
as well people who use the business grounds to engage in certain illegal activities.
Also, the proposed business will include equipment such as automotive interior
vacuums which will be used throughout working hours. These vacuums can generate
a considerable amount of noise and are used throughout the day which can cause
discomfort to many of the local residents. Increased pollution is also an issue. Due to
the nature of the above-mentioned equipment, it’s very possible that some patrons
will be negligent in the mess they make.
This area is also home to Patrick Henry Elementary School which currently
enrolls 593 students. Of these 593 students, the majority are walked to school by a
parent or adult supervisor. Between the hours of 7-9 am and 2-4 pm, Romneya is
host to a large amount of foot traffic. This amount of pedestrians-the majority being
parents and their children along with the added congestion from the proposed
business has the potential to create a very dangerous environment. Along with PH,
Romneya St. also is home to Kaiser Permanente which employs well over 700
people. The added congestion that the proposed business will cause will be of great
discomfort to the current employees of KP going to and from work.

Lastly, let’s not forget that there is a carwash right next door and right across
the street as well as a carwash near Euclid and the 5 freeway, Euclid and Valencia,
Euclid and Orangethorpe, Euclid and La Palma and Harbor and Orangethorpe. When
did Euclid St. become the car wash capitol of the universe?
