CUP No. 2016 -14 April 25, 2016 Page 4 The Police Department then compares the number of such crimes in the reporting district as compared to the number of crimes in other reporting districts. In keeping with the standard used by State ABC and Business and Professions Code, should the Police Department determine that the reporting district has a 20 percent greater number of reported crimes than the average number found in all reporting districts, the Police Department will consider this information in making its recommendation. The project at 2429 West McFadden Avenue is located in Reporting District No. 106. This reporting district is 20 percent higher than the average number of reported crimes in all reporting districts. Although the crime rate is 20 percent higher, the Police Department contends that since this business will surrender their existing ABC license upon relocation to the space adjacent to their current location at Unit 108, the move from one unit to another will not cause any further demand on services in the area. In addition, the Police Department contends that the proposed conditions of approval and operational standards will mitigate any potential negative impacts to the surrounding community. As a result, the Police Department is supportive of the applicant's request. Public Notification The project is located within the boundaries of the Bella Vista neighborhood. Staff contacted the president of the Bella Vista Neighborhood Association to ensure that the neighborhood was notified of this project and to Identify any areas of concern. The project site was also 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 and tenants within 500 feet of the project site. At the time of this printing, no correspondence, either written or electronic, had been received. M Restaurant Acapulco is an existing facility applying for a conditional use permit to allow an ABC license to have beer and wine consumption on site. It has been found by the City's development review agencies that the granting of this ABC license will not create any adverse impacts. Restaurant Acapulco is located on a site that is not designated by federal, state, or local agencies to be an environmental resource of hazardous or critical concern. The cumulative impact of this project will not be significant as the land use is allowed by the Santa Ana Municipal Code, the property is already served by roads and utilities, and will not create any adverse impacts such as noise, traffic, or safety concerns. There is no reasonable possibility that the project will have a significant effect on the environment due to unusual circumstances. The project is not located within a highway officially designated as a state scenic highway and will not result in damage to scenic resources. The project is not located on a site which is included on any list compiled 31A-6
