EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Mike Kuark with Sushi 21 Express Restaurant, on behalf of property owner D&S Investments, is requesting approval of Conditional Use Permit (CUP) No. 2020-23 to allow the sale of alcoholic beverages for on premise consumption at an existing restaurant located at 3701 South Harbor Boulevard, Unit E. Pursuant to Section 41-196 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (SAMC), establishments wishing to sell alcoholic beverages for on-premises consumption require approval of a CUP. Staff is recommending approval of the applicant’s request because the project has demonstrated compliance with zoning requirements as discussed and analyzed in the sections below, because the site is located away from sensitive uses, and due to the property’s history of compliance with City codes and regulations. DISCUSSION Project Description Sushi 21 Express currently occupies a 1,616-square foot tenant space within a multi- tenant commercial building. The restaurant will accommodate up to 26 patrons within its dining area and will operate Monday through Saturday from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m. (midnight). With the approval of the Conditional Use Permit, the applicant intends to apply for a Type 41 (Beer & Wine) Alcohol Beverage Control (ABC) license ancillary to the food service on premise. All alcoholic beverages will be stored within the restaurant’s cooler, storage racks and service counter area, which will be less than 60 square feet in size combined. Both the storage and display areas will make up less than five percent of the total restaurant’s floor area as required by SAMC Section 41- 196(g)(25). No entertainment is being proposed at this time. Should the applicant seek to provide entertainment, approval of an entertainment permit will be required.

The restaurant is located within a multi-tenant commercial building that is currently occupied by other eating establishments. Two other buildings are on-site, providing additional retail/service and dining uses. The subject tenant space was previously occupied by Byblos Grill and Brazil Cali Grill, among other eating establishments. Sushi 21 Express specializes in Japanese Cuisine. Project Analysis CUP requests are governed by Section 41-638 of the SAMC. CUPs may be granted when it can be shown that the proposed project will not adversely impact the community. If these findings can be made, then it is appropriate to grant the CUP. Conversely, the inability to make these findings would result in a denial. The purpose of regulating establishments that sell alcoholic beverages is to set forth operating practices Item Information Project Address 3701 South Harbor Boulevard Nearest Intersection Harbor Boulevard and Sunflower Avenue General Plan Designation Industrial (IND) Zoning Designation Light Industrial (M1) North Professional Offices East Professional Offices South Higher Education (located in Costa Mesa) Surrounding Land Uses West Professional Offices (located in Costa Mesa) Property Size 3.4 Acres Existing Site Development The subject site is a multi-tenant commercial building.

Staff has reviewed the applicant’s request to sell beer and wine and has determined that the sale of beer and wine at the subject location will not be detrimental to the health, safety, and welfare of the community. The proposed sale of beer and wine for on site consumption will provide an ancillary service to the restaurant’s customers by allowing them the ability to purchase a variety of alcoholic beverages with their meal and will allow Sushi 21 Express to be economically viable and compete with nearby full-service restaurants that offer that same services. In addition, the operational standards applied to the ABC license will mitigate any potential impacts created by the use and will ensure that the use will not negatively affect the surrounding community. Furthermore, the subject site is not located within immediate proximity to parks, playgrounds, schools, or religious institutions. The nearest sensitive land use is Sofia University, which is approximately 700 feet to the south. As a result, the granting of the CUP will not negatively impact any sensitive land uses that may be nearby. Approval of the CUP will be consistent with several goals and policies of 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 restaurants that offer alcoholic beverages offer 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 restaurant applicable to the ABC license will ensure maintenance of a safe and attractive environment in the neighborhood. Finally, Policy 5.5 of the Land Use Element encourages development that is compatible with and supporting of surrounding land uses. Sushi 21 Express will be located within a commercial development and its operations will be compatible with the surrounding commercial businesses. Police Department Analysis The Police Department reviews CUP applications for the sale and service of alcoholic beverages in order to ensure that the potential crime and nuisance behaviors associated with alcohol consumption are mitigated to the greatest extent possible. For on-sale licenses, the Police Department analyzes the crime rate in the area using the standards and definitions contained in the Business and Professions Code Section 23948.4(c)(2), which are also utilized by the State Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC). This section defines “reported crimes” as criminal homicide, forcible rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, larceny theft, and motor vehicle theft, combined with all arrests for other crimes, both felonies and misdemeanors, except traffic citations. CUP No. 2020-23 – Sushi 21 Express On-Premises ABC License February 8, 2021 Page 4 3 6 6 Table 3: Police Department Analysis and Criteria for Recommendation Police Department Analysis and Criteria for Recommendation Police Grid No. and Rank Police Grid No. 191; ranked 80 out of 102 Police Reporting Grids Threshold for High Crime This reporting district is below the 20 percent threshold established by the State for high crime Police Department Recommendation The Police Department is satisfied that the operational standards applicable to on premise ABC licenses will mitigate any potential impacts to the surrounding community and therefore does not oppose the granting of a CUP. 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 the State Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control 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. As part of the application process, this application was reviewed by the Police Department. Based on their review, the Police Department has no issues of concern regarding this application. Economic Development Benefits The operation of Sushi 21 Express restaurant is expected to generate $150,000 in annual sales with approved ABC license, resulting in approximately $15,385 in annual sales tax revenues for the City. Permit fees for the city and state license will be $7,580.88. Finally, this project will result in about three part time jobs and three full time permanent jobs. Public Notification and Community Outreach Project notifications were posted, published, and mailed in accordance with City and State regulations. A public notice was posted on the project site on January 28, 2021. Notification by mail was mailed to all property owners and occupants within 500 feet of the project site on January 27, 2021. Lastly, a newspaper posting was published in the Orange County Reporter on January 27, 2021. In addition, the site is not located within the boundaries of nor adjacent to the boundaries of an established Neighborhood Association. At the time this report was printed, no issues of concern were raised regarding the proposed CUP. CUP No. 2020-23 – Sushi 21 Express On-Premises ABC License February 8, 2021 Page 5 3 6 6 ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the project is exempt from further review pursuant to pursuant to Section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines (Class 1 exemption for existing facilities). The project proposes to allow the operation of an alcoholic beverage control license to sell beer and wine at a bona-fide restaurant. Based on this analysis, a Notice of Exemption, Environmental Review No. 2021-11 will be filed for this project. FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. EXHIBIT(S) 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 A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA APPROVING CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2020-23 AS CONDITIONED TO ALLOW ON- PREMISES SALE AND CONSUMPTION OF ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES AT SUSHI 21 EXPRESS LOCATED AT 3701 SOUTH HARBOR BOULEVARD, UNIT E jmf 1/26/21 Resolution No. 2021-XXX 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 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 jmf 1/26/21 Resolution No. 2021-XXX 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.

Providing a variety of full-service eating establishments that provide alcoholic beverages as part of their menu offers 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. Sushi 21 Express is located within a multi-tenant commercial building 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 1 – Existing Facilities). 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.

Adopt a resolution approving Conditional Use Permit No. 2020-24 as conditioned to allow drive-through window service. 2. Adopt a resolution approving Conditional Use Permit No. 2020-25 as conditioned to allow after-hours operations within 150 feet of residentially zoned and used property. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Rose Bacinski of Bacinski & Associates, representing property owner Brian Katz, is requesting approval of two conditional use permit (CUP) applications to facilitate construction of a Tacos Gavilan eating establishment at 2320 South Bristol Street. Specifically, the applicant is requesting two CUPs pursuant to Section 41-365.5 (e) and (f), as permitted by Section 41-377.5 (a) of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (SAMC), to allow a restaurant with drive-through window service and to allow the restaurant to operate after-hours until 2:00 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday. Staff is recommending approval of the entitlements to facilitate the construction of a new restaurant for Tacos Gavilan. The proposed project will redevelop an existing lot and provide additional services to residents, workers, and visitors in the area. The project will not negatively impact the surrounding community as the project has been designed to minimize impacts to the nearby sensitive land uses. DISCUSSION Project Description The applicant is proposing to demolish an existing 6,746-square foot building and its non-conforming pole sign and construct a new 2,765-square-foot eating establishment for Tacos Gavilan with drive-through operations and after-hours operations until 2:00 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday. The proposed eating establishment will include a dining area with seating for approximately 63 guests and an outdoor patio/hardscape area. The applicant proposes various off-site and on-site improvements that include street CUP Nos. 2020-24 and 2020-25 – Tacos Gavilan February 8, 2021 Page 2 3 2 6 improvements, extensive landscaping (perimeter and parking lot), a parking lot with 23 parking stalls, a decorative trash enclosure, parking lot fixtures, and refurbishing an existing perimeter wall with vines and anti-graffiti coating along the eastern property line. Table 1: Project and Location Information Item Information Project Address 2320 South Bristol Street Nearest Intersection Bristol Street and Warner Avenue General Plan Designation General Commercial (GC) Zoning Designation General Commercial (C2) North: Commercial East: Commercial South: Commercial Surrounding Land Uses West: Multiple-Family Residential Property Size 0.603 acres (26,250 sq. ft.) Existing Site Development The subject site is developed with a 6,746-sq. ft. retail building Use Permissions Allowed with a conditional use permit (CUP) Uses: Sections 41-365.5 (e) and (f), SAMCZoning Code Sections Affected Development Standards: Sections 41-365 through 41-373, SAMC The building is designed in a Spanish architectural style with tall aluminum storefronts, earth tone color palette, thin stone veneer, smooth stucco finishes, canopies and trim, medallions, complementary light fixtures, landscaping/green screens, and a prominent front entry design. The architecture is designed to maximize the building’s prominence on Bristol Street and enhance the streetscape as a commercial corridor. Tables 2A and 2B below provide a detailed comparison of the project’s compliance with the applicable land use and development standards. Table 2A: Land Use Standards General Commercial (C2) (SAMC Sec. 41-365.5 and 41-377.5) Proposed Land Use Permit Requirements Eating establishment Allowed by Right Drive-through window service for an eating establishment Conditional Use Permit Eating establishments within 150 feet of residentially zoned property operating between the hours of 12:00 a.m. and 5:00 a.m. Conditional Use Permit CUP Nos. 2020-24 and 2020-25 – Tacos Gavilan February 8, 2021 Page 3 3 2 6 Table 2B: Development Standards The site currently provides a 20-foot wide easement for ingress and egress purposes in a driveway that connects from Bristol Street to the residential and commercial uses to the west and north, respectively. This easement will be maintained as part of the site’s redevelopment, and conditions of approval are proposed to ensure operation of the drive-through lane does not adversely impact the free movement of vehicles in this ingress and egress easement area. Project Background and Chronology The subject site was developed with a commercial (bank) building in 1968. A fabrics company occupied the building between 1987 and 2016, when a Halloween briefly occupied the site. The site has remained vacant since then. The subject application was submitted to the City in March 2020. Since its initial submission, the project’s architecture and layout have been refined to comply with the City’s development standards and applicable design guidelines for commercial buildings and drive-through establishments. Project Analysis CUP requests are governed by Section 41-638 of the SAMC. CUPs may be granted when it can be shown that the proposed project will not adversely impact the community. If these findings can be made, then it is appropriate to grant the CUP. Conversely, the inability to make these findings would result in a denial. Standard Required by General Commercial (C2) Zone Provided Front Yard 15 feet minimum Complies: 28 feet, 6 inches Side yard (interior)0 feet minimum Complies; 18 feet, 2 inches Rear yard 0 feet minimum Complies; 76 feet, 6 inches Lot Size & Frontage 15,000 sq. ft. and 120 feet Complies; 26,250 sq. ft. and 130 ft.

The drive-through lane meets the City’s stacking requirements and will allow for a minimum of eight cars to queue without disrupting Bristol Street, the site’s drive aisles, or on-site parking spaces. An analysis of the site access and site circulation determined that the proposed site plan provides adequate space for vehicles to maneuver through the project site and drive-through lane. In addition, vehicle queuing at the driveway to access both the parking area and the drive-through lane’s entrance is designed to minimize impacts to Bristol Street. The drive-through operation is also designed to generate minimal noise impacts as the speaker boards are located towards the car wash/commercial site to the south of the project site, and away from the residential uses to the west of the project site. Any potential noise generated from the idling of vehicles or the drive-through speakers is not anticipated to impact the closest residential uses as those residential uses are approximately 150 feet away to the west and are separated from the project site by an existing eight-foot tall block wall. Moreover, the drive-through lane is at the south end of the property, which produces minimal visual impact to Bristol Street as the new building will be the prominent view from the street. The site design proposes multiple 24-inch box trees and species, including Queen Palms, Crape Myrtle, Australian Willow, Southern Magnolia, and Desert Museum Palo Verde planted throughout the project site. Trumpet Ivy and Boston Ivy will be planted along perimeter walls to minimize graffiti and enhance the aesthetics of the site. Conditions of approval are proposed to ensure vines are planted along all perimeter walls, that any blank or missing wall segments be constructed and improved, and that a berm be constructed where feasible to screen the drive-through lane from view along Bristol Street. Pursuant to Section 41-365.5 (e) and 41-377.5 (a) of the SAMC, eating establishments with drive-through service require approval of a CUP. The applicant’s request for a CUP to allow drive-through service will provide an added amenity to the property, for the employees who work in the vicinity and for the residents who live in the general area. In addition, the proposed restaurant will generate new and permanent employment opportunities and support the economic growth and stability of the City, activate the street corner, and generate property and sales tax revenue. These impacts are further outlined in the Economic Development Benefits section of this report. Approval of this application would be consistent with the goals of the General Plan, specifically Goals 1 and 2 of the Land Use Element which promotes a balance of land uses to address basic community needs and encourages the location of commercial activities at arterial roadway intersections in commercial districts. In addition, drive- CUP Nos. 2020-24 and 2020-25 – Tacos Gavilan February 8, 2021 Page 5 3 2 6 through will contribute to the long-term viability of the lot in which eating establishment is proposed to be located. Conditional Use Permit for After-Hours Service Pursuant to Section 41-365.5 (f) and 41-377.5 (a) of the SAMC, eating establishments located within 150 feet of properties zoned or used for residential purposes that wish to operate between the hours of 12:00 a.m. and 5:00 a.m. require approval of a CUP. The purpose of regulating after-hours operations is to preserve the surrounding community characteristics and minimize any negative secondary impacts. Staff has reviewed the applicant’s request to operate the restaurant and drive-through window service until 2:00 a.m. on Saturdays and Sundays and has determined that the operations will not be detrimental to the community. The subject site abuts commercial uses to the north and south, Bristol Street and commercial uses to the east, and a multiple-family residential community to the west. This residential community’s nearest building is buffered from the new restaurant and its drive-through lane by almost 150 feet and is separated from the site by an existing eight-foot tall block wall. These factors will help buffer the residential uses from any light, noise, or traffic impacts that the eating establishment may have on the residents. Moreover, the applicant’s request for after-hours operations is limited to 2:00 a.m. on two evenings of the week (Friday/Saturday and Saturday/Sunday). Approval of this application would be consistent with the goals of the General Plan, specifically Goals 2 and 5 of the Land Use Element which promotes land uses that enhance the City’s economic fiscal viability and mitigate any potential impacts to the surrounding community. In addition, the after-hours operations will contribute to the viability of the site creating a business environment that is safe and attractive (Exhibit 2). Police Department Analysis The Police Department reviews conditional use permit applications for after-hours operations in order to ensure that potential crime or nuisance behaviors associated with such a use are mitigated to the greatest extent possible. For after-hours operations, the Police Department analyzes the crime rate in the area by matching the location of the subject site’s census tract to the corresponding Police Grid. The City of Santa Ana contains 102 police reporting grids. The Police Department generates an annual report, the Citywide Incident Ranking report, which ranks these reporting grids based on police activity. 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 the State Business and Professions Code, should the Police Department determine that the reporting district has a 20 percent greater CUP Nos. 2020-24 and 2020-25 – Tacos Gavilan February 8, 2021 Page 6 3 2 6 number of reported crimes than the average number found in all reporting districts, the Police Department would consider this information in making its recommendation. Table 3: Police Department Analysis and Criteria for Recommendation Police Department Analysis and Criteria for Recommendation Police Grid No. and Rank Police Grid No. 129; ranked 40 out of 102 Police Reporting Grids Threshold for High Crime This reporting district is below the 20 percent threshold established by the State for high crime. Police Department Recommendation The Police Department recommended operational standards for the proposed after-hours and drive-through activity to address any potential impacts to the surrounding community and does not oppose the granting of a CUP. The Police Department reviewed Police related activity for the location and the entire block on which the site is located for the last year and found that the subject site has received 24 calls for service, with one rising to the level of a non-criminal report. The majority of the calls for service in the area are attributed to the large commercial center located across Bristol Street to the east. While the activity is nearby, the Police Department does not believe that it should reflect negatively on the proposed restaurant or after-hours drive-through activity. Furthermore, the Police Department contends that the operational standards applicable to after-hours and drive-through activity will mitigate any potential impacts to the surrounding community and therefore does not oppose the granting of the CUPs. Economic Development Benefits The project will generate sales tax revenue, create temporary construction and permanent jobs and will provide additional dining options for the community. In addition, the construction of the project will require that approximately $7,500 in permit fees be paid to the City. Based sales estimates provided, the location will provide additional sales tax revenue of $370,000, including a portion to the City that is estimated to be approximately $10,000 annually. In addition, it is estimated that 200 temporary (construction) and 25 permanent new job opportunities will be created at this specific location. Public Notification and Community Outreach Project notifications were posted, published, and mailed in accordance with City and State regulations. A public notice was posted on the project site on January 28, 2021. Notification by mail was mailed to all property owners and occupants within 500 feet of the project site on January 27, 2021. Lastly, a newspaper posting was published in the Orange County Reporter on January 27, 2021. CUP Nos. 2020-24 and 2020-25 – Tacos Gavilan February 8, 2021 Page 7 3 2 6 In addition, the Thornton Park and Sunwood Central Neighborhood Association representatives were contacted to identify any areas of concern due to the proposed drive-through window service and after-hours operations. At the time this report was printed, no issues of concern were raised regarding the proposed CUPs. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the project is exempt from further review pursuant to pursuant to Section 15303 of the CEQA Guidelines (Class 3 exemption for new construction or conversion of small structures). The project proposes a new commercial building within the General Commercial (C2) zone, which allows service, retail and commercial uses. The proposed eating establishment is not anticipated to use significant amount of hazardous substances, is not located within an environmentally sensitive area, and will have access to all necessary public services and facilities made available through the City of Santa and Orange County Fire Authority (OCFA). Based on this analysis, a Notice of Exemption, Environmental Review No. 2020-23 will be filed for this project. FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. EXHIBIT(S) 1.

The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines, and declares as follows: A. Rose Bacinski (“Applicant”), representing property owner Brian Katz, is requesting approval of two conditional use permit (CUP) applications to facilitate construction of a Tacos Gavilan eating establishment at 2320 South Bristol Street. B. Santa Ana Municipal Code (“SAMC”) Sections 41-365.5(e) and 41- 377.5(a) require approval of a CUP for eating establishments with drive- through window service. C. Pursuant to SAMC Section 41-638, the Planning Commission is authorized to review and approve CUP No. 2020-24 for this project as set forth by the Santa Ana Municipal Code. D. On February 8, 2021, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing for CUP No. 2020-24. E. The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana has considered the information and determines that the following findings, which must be established in order to grant CUP No. 2020-24, for drive-through window service, have been established as required by SAMC Section 41-638: 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 eating establishment will provide a service and facility which will contribute to the general well being of the neighborhood and community. The project will redevelop an underutilized and vacant site with a new, viable commercial use. The building is designed in a Spanish architectural style with tall aluminum storefronts, earth tone color palette, thin stone veneer, smooth stucco finishes, canopies and trim, A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA APPROVING CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2020-24 AS CONDITIONED TO ALLOW DRIVE-THROUGH WINDOW SERVICE FOR THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 2320 SOUTH BRISTOL STREET jmf 1/27/21 Resolution No. 2021-XXX Page 2 of 8 medallions, complementary light fixtures, landscaping/green screens, and a prominent front entry design. The architecture is designed to maximize the building’s prominence on Bristol Street and enhance the streetscape as a commercial corridor. 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 drive-through will not be detrimental to the health, safety or welfare of those residing or working in the vicinity as it is designed and intended to generate the least amount of impacts as possible. The drive-through lane meets the City’s stacking requirements and will allow for a minimum of eight cars to queue without disrupting drive aisles or on-site parking spaces. In addition, vehicle queuing at the driveway is not anticipated to exceed two vehicles, and vehicles queuing in the drive-through lane will have adequate space to queue within the project and will not enter onto Bristol Street. The drive-through operation is also designed to generate minimal noise impacts as the speaker boards are located towards the south of the site and are oriented towards the adjacent commercial use (car wash) and not towards the multiple-family residences to the west. Any potential noise generated from the idling of vehicles or the drive-through speakers is not anticipated to impact the closest residential uses as those residential uses’ nearest structures are approximately 150 feet away to the west and are separate from the subject site by an existing eight-foot tall block wall. This additional distance will further minimize any potential impacts from the restaurant’s drive-through and after-hours operations. Lastly, the drive-through lane is at the south of the property, which produces minimal visual impact to Bristol Street as the new building will be the prominent view from the street. The site design will include multiple 24-inch box trees and species, including Queen Palms, Crape Myrtle, Australian Willow, Southern Magnolia, and Desert Museum Palo Verde planted throughout the project site. Trumpet Ivy and Boston Ivy will be planted along perimeter walls to minimize graffiti and enhance the aesthetics of the site. jmf 1/27/21 Resolution No. 2021-XXX Page 3 of 8 3. That the proposed use will not adversely affect the present economic stability or future economic development of properties surrounding the area. The drive-through facility will not adversely affect the economic stability or future economic development of properties in the surrounding area. The site is currently vacant and the new building will establish a commercial use of the property. An eating establishment with drive-through service will provide an additional service and eating opportunities for the area and will provide a commercial business that generates sales tax revenue for the City. 4. That the proposed use will comply with the regulations and conditions specified in Chapter 41 for such use. The proposed use complies with the regulations and conditions of Chapter 41 including building heights, yards, parking and landscaping. A condition of approval has been added to the conditional use permit for a property maintenance agreement to be recorded against the property which will ensure that the property and all improvements are properly maintained. 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 eating establishment with drive-through service will not adversely affect the General Plan. The project is located in a General Commercial (GC) General Plan land use designation which allows for commercial uses such as retail, service and eating establishment uses. The project is consistent with several goals and policies of the General Plan, including the Economic Development Element, Land Use Element and Urban Design Element. Land Use Element Goal 1 promotes a balance of land uses to address basic community needs. Policy 1.10 encourages the location of commercial activities at arterial roadway intersections in commercial districts. The project will provide for a new eating establishment on an arterial street. Land Use Element Goal 2 promotes land uses that enhance the City’s economic and fiscal viability. Policy 2.8 encourages increased levels of capital investment. The drive-through will contribute to the viability of the corner lot in which the eating establishment is proposed to be located. Policy 2.9 supports developments that create a business environment that is safe and attractive. jmf 1/27/21 Resolution No. 2021-XXX Page 4 of 8 The condition of approval for property maintenance will maintain a safe and attractive environment in the community. Economic Development Element Goal 2 maintains and enhances the diversity of the City’s economic base. Policy 2.3 encourages the development of mutually beneficial and supportive business clusters within the community. Urban Design Element Goal 1 improves the physical appearance of the City through development of districts that project a sense of place, positive community image and quality environment. Specifically, Policy 1.5 enhances architectural forms, textures, colors, and materials for all projects. Section 2. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the CEQA Guidelines, the project is exempt from further review per Section 15303 (Class 3). The Class 3 exemption consists of the construction of small structures, which in an urbanized area applies to up to four commercial buildings not exceeding 10,000 square feet in floor area on sites zoned for such use, if not involving the use of significant amounts of hazardous substances where all necessary public services and facilities are available and the surrounding area is not environmentally sensitive. The proposed building is 2,765 square feet in floor area within the General Commercial zone which allows for service, retail and commercial uses. The proposed eating establishment is not anticipated to use significant amounts of hazardous substances. There are public services available through the City of Santa Ana and the Orange County Fire Authority and the surrounding area is not environmentally sensitive. As a result, Categorical Exemption, Environmental Review No. 2020-23 will be filed for this project. Section 3.

The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana has considered the information and determines that the following findings, which must be established in order to grant CUP No. 2020-25, to operate between the hours of 12:00 a.m. and 5:00 a.m. within one hundred fif ty (150) feet of residentially zoned and used property, have been established as required by SAMC Section 41-638: 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 eating establishment with 24-hour operations will provide a service to persons that are working or residing in the area. The project will redevelop an underutilized and vacant site with a new, viable commercial use. The building is A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA APPROVING CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 2020-25 AS CONDITIONED TO ALLOW AFTER-HOURS OPERATION UNTIL 2:00 A.M. ON SATURDAYS AND SUNDAYS FOR AN EATING ESTABLISHMENT AT 2320 SOUTH BRISTOL STREET jmf 1/27/21 Resolution No. 2021-XXX Page 2 of 8 designed in a Spanish architectural style with tall aluminum storefronts, earth tone color palette, thin stone veneer, smooth stucco finishes, canopies and trim, medallions, complementary light fixtures, landscaping/green screens, and a prominent front entry design. The architecture is designed to maximize the building’s prominence on Bristol Street and enhance the streetscape as a commercial corridor. 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 operations will not be detrimental to the health, safety or welfare of those residing or working in the vicinity. The property to the west is a multiple-family residential development whose nearest structures are approximately 150 feet from the subject site and are separated by an existing eight-foot tall block wall. These conditions will help buffer the residential uses from any light, noise, or traffic impacts that the eating establishment may have on the residents. Moreover, the applicant’s request to only operate the restaurant and drive-through facility until 2:00 a.m. on two nights per week (Friday/Saturday and Saturday/Sunday) will result in minimizing any potential impacts from late-night operations. In addition, the Police Department has determined that although there has been police activity nearby within the last 365-days, it should not reflect negatively on the proposed restaurant or after-hours activity. The Police Department contends that the operational standards applicable to after-hours activity will mitigate any potential impacts to the surrounding community and therefore does not oppose the granting of the conditional use permit. 3. That the proposed use will not adversely affect the present economic stability or future economic development of properties surrounding the area. The after-hours operations will not adversely affect the economic stability or future economic development of properties in the surrounding area. The site will be redeveloped with a new eating establishment with water efficient landscaping. An eating establishment with after- hours operations will provide additional service and eating opportunities for the area and will provide a commercial business that will generate sales tax revenue for the City. This new business will provide job opportunities and allow jmf 1/27/21 Resolution No. 2021-XXX Page 3 of 8 the business to compete with other after-hours businesses within close proximity. 4. That the proposed use will comply with the regulations and conditions specified in Chapter 41 for such use. The proposed use complies with the regulations and conditions in Chapter 41, including building heights, yards, parking and landscaping. A condition of approval has been added to the conditional use permit for a property maintenance agreement to be recorded against the property which will ensure that the property and all improvements are properly maintained. 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 eating establishment with after-hours operations will not adversely affect the General Plan. The project is located in a General Commercial (GC) General Plan land use designation which allows for commercial uses such as retail, service and eating establishment uses. The project is consistent with several goals and policies of the General Plan, including the Economic Development Element, Land Use Element and Urban Design Element. Land Use Element Goal 1 promotes a balance of land uses to address basic community needs. Policy 1.10 encourages the location of commercial activities at arterial roadway intersections in commercial districts. The project will provide for a new eating establishment on an arterial street. Land Use Element Goal 2 promotes land uses that enhance the City’s economic and fiscal viability. Policy 2.8 encourages increased levels of capital investment. The after-hours operations will contribute to the viability of the site. Policy 2.9 supports developments that create a business environment that is safe and attractive. The condition of approval for property maintenance will maintain a safe and attractive environment in the community. Economic Development Element Goal 2 maintains and enhances the diversity of the City’s economic base. Policy 2.3 encourages the development of mutually beneficial and supportive business clusters within the community. Urban Design Element Goal 1 improves the physical appearance of the City through development of districts that project a sense of place, positive community image and quality environment. Specifically, Policy 1.5 enhances architectural forms, textures, colors, and materials for all projects. jmf 1/27/21 Resolution No. 2021-XXX Page 4 of 8 Section 2. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the CEQA Guidelines, the project is exempt from further review per Section 15303 (Class 3). The Class 3 exemption consists of the construction of small structures, which in an urbanized area applies to up to four commercial buildin gs not exceeding 10,000 square feet in floor area on sites zoned for such use, if not involving the use of significant amounts of hazardous substances where all necessary public services and facilities are available and the surrounding area is not environm entally sensitive. The proposed building is 2,765 square feet in floor area within the General Commercial zone, which allows for service, retail and commercial uses. The proposed eating establishment is not anticipated to use significant amounts of hazardous substances. There are public services available through the City of Santa Ana and the Orange County Fire Authority and the surrounding area is not environmentally sensitive. As a result, Categorical Exemption, Environmental Review No. 2020 -23 will be filed for this project. Section 3.
