Conditional Use Permit No. 2015 -15 September 14, 2015 Page 3 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 will not adversely 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 this conditional use permit request, staff believes that the following findings of fact warrant approval of the conditional use permit. SAMC Section 41 -196 requires a CUP for establishments selling alcohol for on -site or off -site consumption. The proposed ABC license will allow the restaurant to offer an additional amenity and dining experience for its patrons that is consistent with other eating establishments in the area. Moreover, operational standards applicable to the license will mitigate potential impacts from the Type 41 ABC license (Exhibit 6). • The proposed Type 41 ABC license will provide an ancillary service to the restaurant's customers by allowing them the ability to purchase a variety of alcoholic beverages with their food. This will thereby benefit the community by providing a restaurant with an additional and complementary food - related amenity. Standards are applicable to 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. 31 B -5
