Operational standards will ensure the project remains <br />in compliance with all applicable codes and regulations <br />related to alcohol sales to ensure that the use does not <br />impact neighboring properties or create an attractive <br />nuisance. <br />5. That the proposed use will not adversely affect the General Plan of <br />the city or any specific plan applicable to the area of the proposed <br />use. <br />The proposed sale of alcoholic beverages for on-premises <br />consumption at this location will not adversely affect the <br />General Plan or any specific plan. The granting of this <br />conditional use permit supports several policies contained in <br />the General Plan. Policy 2.2 of the Land Use Element <br />encourages land uses that accommodate the City’s needs <br />for goods and services. Providing a variety of full-service <br />restaurants that provide alcoholic beverages as part of their <br />menu offers additional dining options for Santa Ana <br />residents and visitors. Furthermore, Policy 2.9 of the Land <br />Use Element supports developments that create a business <br />environment that is safe and attractive. Operational standards <br />for the proposed ABC license will maintain a safe and <br />attractive environment in the neighborhood. Policy 5.5 of the <br />Land Use Element encourages development that is <br />compatible with and supporting of surrounding land uses. <br />Culichi Town restaurant is located within an integrated <br />commercial shopping center and its operation is compatible <br />with the surrounding commercial businesses. <br /> <br />Section 2. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) <br />and the CEQA Guidelines, the recommended action is exempt from CEQA per Section <br />15061(b) (3). This exemption applies to projects where it can be seen with certainty that <br />there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the <br />environment. The project proposes to allow the on-premises sale of alcoholic beverages <br />at a full-service restaurant and minor interior tenant improvements. There is no <br />reasonable possibility that the project will have a significant effect on the environment due <br />to the facility having the necessary infrastructure to operate the proposed use and no new <br />expansion of the existing building is proposed. <br /> <br /> Section 3. The Applicant agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, and defend the <br />City of Santa Ana, its officials, officers, agents, and employees, from any and all liability, <br />claims, actions or proceedings that may be brought arising out of its approval of this <br />project, and any approvals associated with the project, including, without limitation, any <br />environmental review or approval, except to the extent caused by the sole negligence of <br />the City of Santa Ana. <br /> <br />2-11
