In addition, the GC land use designation is intended to provide important neighborhood facilities and services, including shopping, recreation, cultural and entertainment activities, employment and educational uses. It is also intended to provide support facilities and services for residential areas such as office and retail, restaurants and various other services, including the proposed service station and convenience store. Conditional Use Permit for After-hours Operation The applicant is requesting approval of a CUP to allow the proposed convenience store to operate on a 24-hour per day, seven days per week basis, which is typical for a 7-Eleven store. Pursuant to SAMC Section 41-365.5(h), retail markets having less than twenty thousand (20,000) square feet of floor area which are open at any time between the hours of 12:00 midnight and 5:00 a.m. require approval of a CUP. Should the AA be approved, a CUP for after-hours operation will be required. The purpose of regulating after-hours operations is to preserve the surrounding community characteristics and minimize any negative secondary impacts. The project site is bounded by multi- family residential to the north, a Buddhist temple and residential uses to the east, single-family and multi -family residential to the west, and a two-family residence to the south. To minimize nuisance impacts to the surrounding uses, staff is recommending that the air/water machine be shut-off between the hours of 10:00 p.m, and 7:00 a.m., which is also added as a condition of approval for the after-hours CUP. The proposed hours of operation are consistent with other convenience stores and service stations along Euclid Street, The proposed after-hours operations will provide an ancillary service to the community and individuals seeking to have a morning coffee and/or snack, especially for those residents and commuters who wake up early for work. In addition, this promotes a balance of land uses that assist in enhancing the City's economic and fiscal viability. As conditioned, the proposed after-hours operations will not be detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity. Furthermore, the new convenience store and service station will help activate and enhance the area and will generate property and sales tax revenue for the City.
