Conditional Use Permit No. 2012-05 March 21, 2012 Page 5 PCN letter would have been required to address overconcentration within the census tract as defined by the State's requirements, if Wal-Mart had chosen not to cancel their existing Type 20 license. Finally, in terms of land uses, Dr. Edward Russell Elementary School is located directly across the street from this location. The cancellation of the existing Type 20 license and the issuance of a Type 21 license will result in a zero net gain. Since there are no high crime or overconcentration issues, the Police Department recommends approval of this application for a license upgrade provided that the same conditions from the original conditional use permit are carried forward. Those conditions will mitigate any potential negative impacts to the adjacent residents. Public Notification The project site is located within the boundaries of the Riverview West Neighborhood Association and adjacent to the Santa Anita Neighborhood Association. The presidents of these Neighborhood Associations were notified by mail 10 days prior to this public hearing. In addition, the District representative from the City's Neighborhood Improvement Division called the presidents to ensure that they were notified of the project and to see if there were any areas of concern. No areas of concern were identified by the Neighborhood Association presidents, nor was there a request that the applicant present the project to a meeting of their members. The project site itself was posted with a notice advertising this public hearing, a notice was published in the Orange County Reporter and mailed notices were sent to all property owners within 500 feet of the project site. At the time of this printing, no correspondence, either written or electronic, had been received from any members of the public.
