CUP Nos. 2010-17 thru 2010-19 September 27, 201 O Page 4 At all times when dancing and/or entertainment are being conducted, the applicant shall employ a minimum of one uniformed, licensed security guard for every hundred persons in attendance per event, for keeping the peace. The guard must be approved by the Chief of Police. This additional security will maintain order at the location, as well as protect the surrounding community. The facility has been designed to meet all code requirements, as well as those conditions established by the Police Department; therefore, staff recommends approval of Conditional Use Permit No. 2010-18. Conditional Use Permit No. 2010-19 to allow fora Banquet Facility The proposed restaurant with an ancillary entertainment use may also be used for a banquet facility as it may be closed to the general public for private use. Per the SAMC, banquet facilities must have a kitchen facility, sanitation facilities, and a licensed security guard for every hundred persons in attendance per event. The project meets or exceeds standards for a banquet use. This security guard must be approved by the Chief of Police. Exterior lighting will be reviewed and approved by the Police Department. This will provide protection to patrons of the facility, as well as residents of the surrounding community. The intent is to operate a full service restaurant; however, private events may be allowed on occasion. The facility will have stronger economic viability if private events may also be booked at the facility, so a banquet facility is appropriate. Based upon the analysis of the project and the project's compatibility with the City's General Plan and applicable development standards, staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve Conditional Use Permit Nos. 2010-17, 2010-18 and 2010-19 as conditioned. CEQA Compliance This project was reviewed in accordance with the Guidelines for the California Environmental Quality Act. The recommendation is exempt from further review pursuant to Section 15301, Class 1 because the project involves minor alterations to an existing building as well as the licensing and permitting of a use that was essentially the same as the previous use and will be in conformance with all city codes and requirements. Categorical Exemption Environmental Review No. 2010-13 will be filed for this project. Hally Sobole Associate Pla ner HS:jm ha:\Chaptar-One?cup70-7?thrv79 Chapter Ona.pc Sergio 1 P Princip lann 31 A-6
