4. Will the proposed use comply with the regulations and <br />conditions specified in Chapter 41 of the S.A.M.C. for such <br />use? <br />The proposed alcohol license will not be in compliance <br />with all applicable conditions of Chapter 41 of the Santa <br />Ana Municipal Code regarding off-premise general <br />liquor license since this location meets ail three criteria <br />established for defining over-concentration. The Santa <br />Ana Municipal Code defines fhe overconcentration of <br />alcohol licenses as a site that meets any one of the <br />following criteria: <br />The premise is located within 1,000 feet of <br />another existing off-premise license location; <br />2. The premise is located within 1,000 feet of any <br />property used as a school primarily attended by <br />minors, a church or a park; <br />3. The premise is determined to be over- <br />concentrated by the State Department of <br />Alcoholic Beverage Control. <br />The subject property is within 1,000 feet of a property <br />used as a church, it is located within 1,000 feet of <br />another existing off-premise license location under <br />20,000 square feet in size, and it is in a census tract <br />determined to be over-concentrated by the State. <br />5. Will the proposed use adversely affect the General Plan or any <br />specific plan of fhe City? <br />The proposed alcohol license will adversely affect the <br />goals stated General Plan. The new alcohol license will <br />be inconsistent with Policy 2.9 of the Land Use Element <br />which supports developments that create a business <br />environment that is safe and attractive. The alcohol <br />license increases the potential for nuisance crimes <br />such as loitering, disturbing the peace, graffiti and outer <br />crimes that impact surrounding businesses and <br />residential neighborhoods. The granting of this <br />application is also inconsistent with Policies 5.1 and 5.5 <br />of the Land Use Element of the General Plan which <br />discourages projects that are not compatible with <br />surrounding land uses and have the potential to <br />negatively impact their quality of life.
