A RESOLUTION OF THE ANAHEIM PLANNING COMMISSION
APPROVING A CEQA CA1'.GORICAL EXEMPTION, SECTION 15301,
CLASS 1 (EXISTING FACILITIES) AND APPROVING
A DETERMININATION OF PUBLIC CONVENIENCE OR NECESSITY NO. 2010-00064
(1151 NORTH EUCLID STREET)
WHEREAS, on July 11, 1995, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 95R -134
establishing procedures and delegating certain responsibilities to the Planning Commission
relating to the determination of "public convenience or necessity" on those certain applications
requiring that such determination be made by the local governing body pursuant to applicable
provisions of the Business and Professions Code, and prior to the issuance of a license by the
Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC); and
WHEREAS, Section 23958 of the Business and Professions Code provides that
ABC shall deny an application for a license if issuance of that license would tend to create a law
enforcement problem, or if issuance would result in or add to an undue concentration of licenses,
except when an applicant has demonstrated that public convenience or necessity would be served
by the issuance of a license; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Anaheim did receive an
application for a Determination of Public Convenience or Necessity to permit a Type 21 ABC
license to permit the sales of beer, wine and distilled spirits for off-premises consumption in
conjunction with a proposed convenience market on certain real property situated in the City of
Anaheim, County of Orange, State of California, shown on Exhibit "A attached hereto and
incorporated herein by this reference.
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission did hold a public hearing at the Civic
Center in the City of Anaheim on April 12, 2010, notice of said public hearing having been duly
given as required by Resolution No. 95R -134 and in accordance with the provisions of the
Anaheim Municipal Code, Chapter 18.60 "Procedures to hear and consider evidence for and
against said proposed determination of public convenience or necessity for an alcoholic beverage
control license to investigate and make findings and recommendations in connection therewith;
and
WHEREAS, said Commission, after due inspection, investigation and study made
by itself and in its behalf, and after due consideration of all evidence and reports offered at said
hearing, does find and determine the following facts:
1 PC2010 -023
1. That California state law requires a Determination of Public Convenience or
Necessity when property is located in a reporting district that has a crime rate above the average;
and that Section 23958 of the Business and Professions Code provides that the ABC shall deny
an application for a license if issuance of that license would tend to create a law enforcement
problem except when an applicant has demonstrated that public convenience or necessity would
be served by issuance of a license.
2. That Resolution No. 95R -134 authorizes the City of Anaheim Police Department
to make recommendations related to the public convenience or necessity determinations; and
when the sale of alcoholic beverages for off premises consumption is permitted by the Municipal
Code, said recommendations shall take the form of conditions of approval to be imposed on the
determination in order to ensure that the sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages does not
adversely affect any adjoining land use or the growth and development of the surrounding area.
3. That subject property is Iocated within Census Tract 867.1 with a population that
allows for five off sale ABC licenses and there are presently four licenses in the tract; and, ten
on -sale licenses and there are presently three in the tract. The Anaheim Police Department
evaluates these requests based on the crime rates within the police reporting district by utilizing a
1 mile radius for the subject site. This site has a 1/4 mile radius crime rate of 363% percent above
the average. However, although this is a high crime area, most of the reported incidents are
attributed to the high density residential neighborhood to the west. In comparison, there is a
below average crime rate along this commercial corridor.
4. That the proposal, as conditioned, will not adversely affect the adjoining land uses
and the growth and development of the area in which it is located because the sale of alcoholic
beverages is ancillary to the overall product mix provided by the neighborhood oriented
convenience market. Moreover, the Police Department indicates no specific concerns related to
off premises alcoholic beverage sales and operation of this business, subject to compliance with
conditions of approval.
5. That the traffic generated by the continued use of the property as a convenience
market with off premises alcoholic beverage sales will not impose an undue burden upon the
streets and highways designed and improved to carry the traffic in the area and;
6. That the granting of the Determination of Public Convenience or Necessity under
the conditions imposed will not be detrimental to the health and safety of the citizens of the City
of Anaheim as the sale of alcoholic beverages is ancillary to the proposed market and would
serve as an added convenience to those who choose to shop at this establishment. The Police
Department indicates no specific concerns related to off premises alcoholic beverage sales and
operation of this business, subject to the conditions of approval.
WHEREAS, the proposed project falls within the definition of Categorical
Exemptions, Section 15301, Class 1 (Existing Facilities) as defined in the State CEQA
Guidelines, and is therefore, exempt from the requirement to prepare additional environmental
documentation.
2 PC2010 -023

Commission does hereby determine that the public convenience or necessity will be served by

hereby find and determine that adoption of this Resolution is expressly predicated upon
