The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines and declares as follows: A. Joey Ly with Tait and Associates, representing Raising Claw (“Applicant”), is requesting approval of Conditional Use Permit (“CUP”) No. 2020-12 to allow the sale of alcoholic beverages for on-premises consumption at the property located at 3390 South Bristol Street. B. Santa Ana Municipal Code (“SAMC”) Section 41-196 requires approval of a CUP for establishments wishing to sell alcoholic beverages for on- premises consumption. C. On April 27, 2020, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing on CUP No. 2020-12. D. The Planning Commission determines that the following findings, which must be established in order to grant a CUP pursuant to SAMC Section 41-638, have been established for CUP No. 2020-12 to allow the sale of alcoholic beverages for on-premises consumption at 3390 South Bristol Street: 1. That the proposed use will provide a service or facility which will contribute to the general well being of the neighborhood or community. The proposed sale of alcoholic beverages for on-premises consumption at this location will provide an ancillary service to the restaurant’s customers by allowing them the ability to purchase alcoholic beverages with their meal. This will thereby benefit the community by providing a restaurant with an additional and complementary food related amenity. Operational standards applicable to the alcoholic beverage control (“ABC”) license and conditions of approval will mitigate any potential impacts created by the use and will #36023v2 Resolution No. 2020-xx Page 2 of 7 ensure that the use will not negatively affect the surrounding community. 2. 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. The proposed sale of alcoholic beverages for on-premises consumption at this location will not be detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity because the operational standards applicable to the alcoholic beverage control license and conditions of approval will address any potential negative or adverse impacts created by the use. The granting of the CUP will not negatively impact any sensitive land uses that may be nearby. 3. That the proposed use will not adversely affect the present economic stability or future economic development of properties surrounding the area. The proposed use will not adversely affect the economic stability of the area, but will instead allow the restaurant to compete with other nearby eating establishments that offer a full selection of alcoholic beverages for sale to their customers. Moreover, the offering of alcoholic beverages will allow the restaurant to be economically viable and compete with nearby full-service eating establishments in Santa Ana and will contribute to the overall success of the City. 4. That the proposed use will comply with the regulations and conditions specified in Chapter 41 for such use. The proposed conditional use permit will be in compliance with all applicable regulations and operational standards imposed on an eating establishment selling alcoholic beverages for on-premises consumption pursuant to Chapter 41 of the SAMC. The facility will be maintained as a full- service, bona-fide eating establishment, having suitable kitchen facilities and supplying an assortment of foods. Additionally, the restaurant will utilize less than five (5%) percent of the gross floor area for the display and storage of alcoholic beverages, which is the maximum threshold established by the SAMC. In addition, operational standards will ensure the project remains in compliance with all applicable codes and regulations related to alcohol sales to ensure that the use does not impact neighboring properties or create an attractive nuisance. #36023v2 Resolution No. 2020-xx Page 3 of 7 5. 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. The proposed sale of alcoholic beverages for on-premises consumption at this location will not adversely affect the General Plan or any specific plan. The granting of CUP No. 2020-12 supports several policies contained in the General Plan. Policy 2.2 of the Land Use Element encourages land uses that accommodate the City’s needs for goods and services. Providing a variety of full-service eating establishments that offer alcoholic beverages as part of their menu provides additional dining options for Santa Ana residents and visitors. Furthermore, Policy 2.9 of the Land Use Element supports developments that create a business environment that is safe and attractive. Operational standards for the proposed ABC license will maintain a safe and attractive environment in the neighborhood. Policy 5.5 of the Land Use Element encourages development that is compatible with and supporting of surrounding land uses. Raising Claw is located within a multi-tenant commercial shopping center and its operation is compatible with the surrounding commercial businesses. Section 2. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the CEQA Guidelines, the project is categorically exempt from further review per Section 15301 (Class – Existing Facilities). The Class 1 exemption applies to the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of use beyond that existing at the time of the lead agency's determination. The project proposes to allow the operation of a bona fide restaurant with an alcoholic beverage control license to sell beer and wine with no expansion of use. Based on this analysis, a Notice of Exemption, Environmental Review No. 2020-14, will be filed for this project. Section 3. The Applicant shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold the City and/or any of its officials, officers, employees, agents, departments, agencies, authorized volunteers, and instrumentalities thereof, harmless from any and all claims, demands, lawsuits, writs of mandamus, referendum, and other proceedings (whether legal, equitable, declaratory, administrative or adjudicatory in nature), and alternative dispute resolution procedures (including, but not limited to arbitrations, mediations, and such other procedures), judgments, orders, and decisions (collectively “Actions”), brought against the City and/or any of its officials, officers, employees, agents, departments, agencies, and instrumentalities thereof, that challenge, attack, or seek to modify, set aside, void, or annul, any action of, or any permit or approval issued by the City and/or any of its officials, officers, employees, agents, departments, agencies, and instrumentalities thereof (including actions approved by the voters of the City) for or concerning the project, whether such Actions are brought under the Ralph M. Brown Act, California Environmental Quality Act, the Planning and Zoning Law, the Subdivision #36023v2 Resolution No. 2020-xx Page 4 of 7 Map Act, Code of Civil Procedure sections 1085 or 1094.5, or any other federal, state or local constitution, statute, law, ordinance, charter, rule, regulation, or any decision of a court of competent jurisdiction. It is expressly agreed that the City shall have the right to approve, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld, the legal counsel providing the City’s defense, and that Applicant shall reimburse the City for any costs and expenses directly and necessarily incurred by the City in the course of the defense. City shall promptly notify the Applicant of any Action brought and City shall cooperate with Applicant in the defense of the Action. Section 4.
