Seventeen of those calls to service were specific to the subject
<br />restaurant. The subject site is immediately adjacent to residential
<br />uses, neighborhoods, and open space areas. Therefore, the sale
<br />of distilled spirits would result in an increase of neighborhood and
<br />community disturbances, compromising the general wellbeing of
<br />Santa Ana residents and workers.
<br />Additionally, the existing restaurant operations related to on -site
<br />entertainment, in combination with the proposed sale of distilled
<br />spirits, would result in an unacceptable noise levels and in an
<br />increase of trash and other nuisance standards for the nearby
<br />residential properties. Subsequently, it would result in an
<br />increase in Police- and Code Enforcement -related calls for
<br />service, a further detriment to the general wellbeing of the
<br />surrounding residents.
