CUP Nos. 2010-04 thru 2010-06 <br />August 23, 2010 <br />Page 4 <br />number of police-related incidents, and the fact that there are numerous residential units within 250 <br />feet of this proposed use, the Police Department is concerned with potential negative impacts to <br />adjacent residents. Therefore, several conditions of approval are proposed for this license. <br />The proposed conditions of approval, which include restrictions on alcohol service, noise <br />generation, litter, and exterior pay phones, among others, are intended to address the concerns <br />raised by the Police Department and minimize the number of potential calls for service to the <br />restaurant and ensure the business operates as a bona fide eating establishment. The alcohol <br />license must remain ancillary to the restaurant use, and alcohol storage area is limited to less than <br />five percent of the gross floor area of the restaurant. The on-site security guard will monitor and <br />maintain the safety of patrons, as well as serving to protect the safety of those in the surrounding <br />community. Additionally, the conditions of approval will assist in mitigating potential negative effects <br />this restaurant may have on the surrounding community. <br />Conditional Use Permit No. 2010-06 to allow for a Banquet Facility <br />The proposed entertainment venue and restaurant may also be used for a banquet facility as it may <br />be closed to the general public for private use. Per the SAMC, banquet facilities must have a kitchen <br />facility, sanitation facilities, and a licensed security guard for every hundred persons in attendance <br />per event. This security guard must be approved by the Chief of Police. The applicant will also <br />provide a minimum of one State licensed uniformed security guard to ensure patron safety when <br />going to and from the detached parking structures. Exterior lighting will be reviewed and approved <br />by the Police Department. This will provide protection to patrons of the facility, as well as residents <br />of the surrounding community. The facility will have stronger economic viability if private events may <br />also be booked at the facility, so a banquet facility is suitable. <br />Based upon the analysis of the project and the project's compatibility with the City's General Plan <br />and applicable development standards, staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve <br />Conditional Use Permit Nos. 2010-04, 2010-05 and 2010-06 as conditioned. <br />CEQA Compliance <br />This project was reviewed in accordance with the Guidelines for the California Environmental <br />Quality Act. The recommendation is exempt from further review pursuant to Section 15332, Class <br />32 because it is an infill development project in an existing building, and will be in conformance <br />with all city codes and requirements. Categorical Exemption Environmental Review No. 2009-82 <br />will be filed for this project. <br />Hally Sobol ce <br />Associate Planner <br />HS:jm <br />h&%historic infoftst_Theaterkupt 0-04thru06 Yost.pc
