DISCUSSION
Request of Applicant
Original Mike's restaurant is requesting approval to modify an existing
conditional use permit, obtain a new conditional use permit and amend the
specific development zoning for the site. The proposed changes include an
extension to the hours of operation, allowing special events in the
parking lot, requesting a cover charge to enter the premises, increasing
the allowed number of musicians and allowing exterior amplified music.
Property Description
The project site is a 1.7-acre parcel of land at 100 South Main Street.
The parcel encompasses a city block bounded by First Street to the north,
Walnut Street to the south, Main Street to the east and Sycamore Street to
the west. The site contains the 14,765 square foot United Automotive
building that is designated as a Contributive property on the Santa Ana

Register of Historic Properties. Original Mike's occupies the first floor
of the building, with nine rental apartments located on the second floor.
A total of 157 parking stalls have been provided for the project.
The zoning designation for the site is Specific Development No. 72 (SD-
72), consistent with the General Plan land use designation of District
Center (DC). The site is surrounded by commercial uses to the north, east
and west, and commercial and residential to the south (Exhibits 1 and 2) .
Project Description
The applicant is proposing to modify the existing conditions of approval
as well as the SD-72 zoning designation for Original Mike's (Exhibits 3, 4
and 5). Specifically, the applicant is proposing to serve alcoholic
beverages until 2:00 a.m., allow exterior special events on the premises,
allow a cover charge to enter the premises, allow amplified music within
the outdoor patio area and extend the hours of operation for the outdoor
patio to 9:00 a.m. through 6:00 p.m. Monday through Friday and 9:00 a.m.
to 10: 00 p. m. Saturday and Sunday, allow more than a three-piece band
within the outdoor area, and allow seven musicians with amplified
instruments within the interior of the premises.
Analysis of the Issues
On April 25, 2005 the Planning Commission held a hearing on the request by
several restaurants in the downtown and Artists Village areas to amend
their entitlements. The request by these restaurants to extend the hours
for the sale and service of alcoholic beverages and to allow entertainment
is a result of the growth in commercial and housing developments in the
downtown area. From this growth, a dynamic living community has emerged
within the downtown and Artists Village areas and has resulted in a
lifestyle that has been proven successful throughout downtowns in the
Uni ted States. However, due to concerns with the proposal to allow
unlimited exterior special events and a cover charge at Original Mike's,
the Planning Commission continued the item to further analyze the
request by the applicant.
Original Mike's was granted several entitlements in 2004, including a zone
change to the Specific Development No. 72 (SD-72) zoning designation and a
condi tional use permit to sell alcohol wi thin a restaurant (Exhibit 6).
The restaurant, which includes a bar, interior dining area and outdoor

seating area, is requesting to amend several conditions of approval in an
effort to continue the active lifestyle of the downtown area. Listed on
the following pages are the specific requests by the applicant and the
recommendations by staff:
1. Change the operational standards of SD-72 and the conditional use
permit, which presently limits the closing hours to 12:00 a.m., so
that the restaurant's outdoor patio can remain open until 1:00 a.m.,
with the interior remaining open until 2:00 a.m., seven days a week.
The request to extend the hours of operation for the restaurant and
patio area, including the extension of alcoholic beverage sales,
service and consumption until 1: 00 a. m. in the outdoor patio and
2: 00 a. m. within the restaurant interior are consistent with the
policy direction of the Planning Commission from the April 25th
meeting.
2. Allow unlimited exterior special events on the premises.
Staff has concerns regarding unlimited outdoor activities on the
premises and their impact on the surrounding properties, including
allowing unlimited events on the premises, traffic, parking intrusion
on adj acent sites, noise and safety. To address these concerns,
operational standards are proposed for the SD document and additional
conditions of approval recommended for the conditional use permit.
If approved, the new provisions will address the concerns by
restricting the events to antique car shows, vintage car shows,
motorcycle shows and art exhibits. Further, the events will be
limited to no more than six days per month and may occur on Saturday,
Sunday and/or Monday holidays. The events must be within the parking
lot only, limited between the hours of 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., and
will require Police and Fire Department approval of each event. To
monitor these new measures, a special event application will need to
be submitted to the Police Department monthly, with additional
mitigation measures added on an as needed basis. Additionally, to
ensure the events do not operate as a swap meet, vendor booths are
not permitted.

3. Allow a cover charge to enter the premises.
The applicant is seeking approval of a new conditional use permit
to have the ability to collect a cover charge for special
entertainment events that are offered in conjunction with the
normal restaurant operation. The applicant has verified that it is
not his intention to change the nature of the establishment from a
restaurant to a nightclub, but that these special events will
enhance the current restaurant operation. All activities
associated with the cover charge event will take place within the
confines of the restaurant building and, thus conditions regulating
the restaurant use adequately address any additional operational
issues posed by the addition of the cover charge events. It should
be noted that stand-alone nightclubs are not allowed under the
standards contained in SD-72.
4. Revise the conditions related to outdoor entertainment by allowing
amplified music with extended hours of operation from 9: 00 a. m.
through 6: 00 p. m., Monday through Thursday, and from 9: 00 a. m. to
10:00 p.m. on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, and allow more than the
currently permitted three-piece band.
The request to allow amplified music in the outdoor patio area,
extend the hours of operation in the outdoor patio and allow more
than a three piece band in the patio will allow the applicant to
offer entertainment that will complement the atmosphere of the
restaurant. To address prior concerns raised by the surrounding
neighborhood, amplified music in the patio area is proposed to be
restricted to no later than 6:00 p.m. Monday through Thursday and to
10:00 p.m. on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Additionally, approval
of this request will be consistent with the policy direction of the
Planning Commission from the April 25th meeting.
5. Allow seven musicians with amplified instruments within the interior
of the premises. The current condition allows a maximum of five
musicians.
The size of the facility is easily able to accommodate a musical act
larger than five pieces currently allowed by the conditional use permit.
Since the number of musicians wi thin the restaurant does not generate

the request to increase the number of musicians or instruments allowed
on the premises be approved.

Original Mike's is located in an active, vibrant urban environment. As
is the case in other communi ties where residential proj ects develop in
urban areas, the new residents often desire activity centers that are
open during later hours. The proposed amendments and additional
conditions of approval will allow the restaurant to operate in a similar
manner as other restaurants in the downtown area. The project, with the
additional conditions of approval, will help maintain the active
environment found in the Artists Village. As a result, staff recommends
that the Planning Commission approve Amendment to Conditional Use Permit
No. 2003-37 as conditioned, Conditional Use Permit No. 2005-19 as
conditioned and Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 2005-02 (Exhibits 7, 8, 9
and 10) .
CEQA Compliance
In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the
proposed proj ect is Categorically Exempt. No further environmental
review is needed. Environmental Review No. 05-66 will be filed for this
project.

SECTION 1 APPLICABLITY OF ORDINANCE
The specific development zoning district for the subject
property, as authorized by Chapter 41, Division 26, Section
41-593 et seq. , of the Santa Ana Municipal Code, is
specifically subject to the standards and regulations

land use regulations and standards. All other applicable
chapters, articles, and sections of the Santa Ana Municipal
Code shall apply unless expressly waived or superseded by this
ordinance.
SECTION 2 PURPOSE
This Specific Development Plan No. 72 (SD 72) sets forth the
development and design criteria for the project known as the
Artist Gateway, a mixed used development consisting of
approximately 1.7 acres. The purpose of this Specific

1. Will the proposed use provide a service or facility which will
contribute to the general well being of the neighborhood or the
community?
The restaurant is providing a service and is benefiting the
community by providing an eating establishment with indoor
entertainment in the downtown area. Conditions have been
placed on the restaurant that will mitigate any potential
impacts created by the indoor entertainment use and ensure
that the use will not negatively affect the surrounding
community.
2. Will the proposed use 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 restaurant will not be detrimental to persons residing or
working in the area because the use, as conditioned, will not
create any negative or adverse impacts. The indoor
entertainment use will be mitigated through the existing and
additional conditions of approval that have been adopted for
the project.
3. Will the proposed use adversely affect the present economic
stability or future economic development of properties surrounding
the area?
The 1.7-acre site has been operating as a restaurant for
approximately seven months. The cover charge, in

the restaurant, will increase the patronage to the restaurant,
thereby enhancing the profitability of the business and
identifying the use and site as economically stable and
viable for the surrounding properties in the area.

specified in Chapter 41 for such use?
