Resolution No. 2019-xx Page 2 of 8 providing a facility that is available to host meetings, parties, ceremonious gatherings, dining, and/or entertainment. Operational standards applicable to the banquet facility such as providing a uniformed licensed security guard at the rate of one guard per every 100 attendees and exterior lighting in compliance with Police Department requirements will assist in mitigating potential impacts created by the use and ensure that the banquet 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 proposed banquet facility at this location will not be detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity because the conditions of approval and operational standards for the proposed alcoholic beverage control license (Conditional Use Permit No. 2019-34) and after-hours operations (Conditional Use Permit No. 2019-35) will address any potential negative or adverse impacts created by the use. The Place Banquet Hall is located within the General Commercial (C2) zone. Additionally, the surrounding uses to the south and west will not be in use during the banquet facility hours, with the exception of the religious institution to the east, which is operational in the evening hours. 3. That the proposed use will not adversely affect the present economic stability or future economic development of properties surrounding the area. The proposed use will not adversely affect the economic stability of the area, but will instead allow the banquet facility to complement the hotel use. Patrons attending an event at the banquet hall can utilize the hotel for an overnight stay and conversely hotel patrons can rent the banquet facility for conferences, meetings or similar functions. The Place Banquet Hall will contribute to the overall success of the City of Santa Ana, attracting visitors and residents to the area and providing a service and facility for the community. The Place Banquet Hall will activate the site and occupy a building that is currently vacant. 4. That the proposed use will comply with the regulations and conditions specified in Chapter 41 for such use. The proposed conditional use permit will be in compliance with all applicable regulations and operational standards 1- 12
