Conditional Use Permit No. 2013-24 August 26, 2013 Page 3 The parcel is located within the General Commercial (C-2) zoning district. The C-2 zoning district allows for retail and service uses such as restaurants, making the proposed use consistent with the zoning designation. Project Analysis Conditional Use Permit requests are governed by Section 41-638 of the SAMC. Conditional Use Permit requests may be granted when it can be shown that the following can be established: • That the proposed use will provide a service or facility which will contribute to the general well being of the neighborhood or community. • That the proposed use will not, under the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity. • That the proposed use adversely will not affect the present economic stability or future economic development of properties surrounding the area. • That the proposed use will comply with the regulations and conditions specified in Chapter 41 for such use. • That the proposed use will not adversely affect the General Plan of the city or any specific plan applicable to the area of the proposed use. If these findings can be made, then it is appropriate to grant the conditional use permit. Conversely, the inability to make these findings would result in a denial. Using this information staff has prepared the following analysis, which, in turn forms the basis for the recommendation contained in this report. In analyzing the conditional use permit request, staff believes that the following findings of fact warrant approval of the conditional use permit. The proposed alcoholic beverage license will provide an ancillary service to the restaurant customers by allowing them the ability to purchase beer and wine with their food. This will thereby benefit the community by providing a restaurant with an additional and complementary food-related amenity. Conditions have been placed on the alcoholic beverage control license which will mitigate any potential impacts created by the use and ensure that the use will not negatively affect the surrounding community. • The proposed license for the on-sale consumption of beer and wine at this location will not be detrimental to persons residing or working in the vicinity because conditions have been placed on the alcoholic beverage control license that will mitigate any potential negative or adverse impacts created by the use. In addition, the use will primarily occur within the interior of the premises and is incidental to the restaurant use. 31A-5
