F. On December 9, 2019, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing on Conditional Use Permit No. 2019-39. G. The Planning Commission determines that the following findings, which must be established in order to grant this Conditional Use Permit pursuant to Santa Ana Municipal Code ("SAMC") Section 41-638, have been established for Conditional Use Permit No. 2019-39 to allow the sale of alcoholic beverages for on -premises consumption: 1. That the proposed use will provide a service or facility which will contribute to the general well being of the neighborhood or community.. The existing banquet facility has previously provided alcoholic beverages for on -premises consumption at 207 West Second Street, Unit A. The proposed expansion into the adjacent tenant suite (Unit B) will allow the banquet facility to meet Alcoholic Beverage Control's requirements of having a full and functional kitchen. This will also facilitate the operation of the banquet facility making the customer experience more pleasing by allowing the continuation of on -premises sale and consumption of beer, wine and distilled spirits. In addition, the proposed sale of alcoholic beverages for on -premises consumption at this location will provide an ancillary service to the banquet facility's customers. This will thereby benefit the community by providing a banquet facility in the City with an additional and complementary related amenity. Operational standards applicable to the alcoholic beverage control license will mitigate any potential impacts created by the use and ensure that the use will not negatively affect the surrounding community. 2. That the proposed use will not, under the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity. The subject site contains an existing banquet facility that has been in operation since 2013 and which has provided banquet and catering services approximately 70 to 100 times per year. In addition, the existing banquet facility has provided alcoholic beverages at the events by obtaining a daily alcoholic permit through ABC. Since 2013, the City has not received any complaints or issued any notice of violations to the operator. Furthermore, the subject site is not located within immediate proximity to parks, playgrounds, schools, or religious institutions. In addition, the building is located approximately 130 feet away from the nearest multi- family residences and approximately 600 feet from the Resolution No. 2019-51 Page 2 of 9
