Resolution No. 2025-10 Page 2 of 11 The eating establishment with drive-through window service will contribute to the general well-being of the neighborhood or community by providing additional food servicing options that are convenient for people working or residing in the surrounding area, facilitate development of a long vacant site, promote economic growth, and contribute to the City’s fiscal security. Moreover, as part of the Project, the Applicant will develop a long-vacant and under- utilized site and construct a new pad building featuring a contemporary design characterized by stone veneer, fiber cement siding, and cement plaster in a neutral color scheme of grey, white, and alongside a tower element painted “Dutch Bros Blue”. Rooftop mechanical and heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment will be screened by roof parapet extensions made of matching materials, ensuring they blend seamlessly with the overall building design. This development will reintroduce commercial activity to the previously underutilized site and vacant site since 1997.The new commercial development will deter illicit activity and generate business that, in the long term, will promote the economic viability of the City and the well-being of the community through the creation of new permanent jobs and increase in property and sales tax revenue. 2.

Additionally, the drive-through layout was designed in a manner that ensures safe onsite circulation by providing an approximate 250-foot double drive- throughout lane (500 feet of stacking space) that yields a capacity for 24 vehicles. An additional 150 feet of spillover space is located behind the parking stalls, ensuring it does not interfere with vehicle parking back up requirements. An additional 150 feet of spill over area is provided between the driveway entrance off Tustin Avenue Frontage Road and the driveway exit area (designated as “do not block”), resulting in a total of 300 feet of spillover area beyond the start of the drive-through lanes. Furthermore, the drive-through lane would have a clearly delineated exit area, which would further prevent blocked vehicles and avoid any site circulation concerns. Lastly, while the property is located adjacent to residential land uses towards the north and east, the design and measures related to noise, lighting, and traffic would be taken would result in a project that is not anticipated to result in a nuisance to the neighboring properties. The lighting would not be detrimental to the persons residing in the adjacent residential properties as it the illumination
