facility which will contribute to the general well being of
the neighborhood or the community?
The modification of Conditional Use Permit No. 95-3 for
the off-premise sale of beer, wine and distilled spirits
will not be detrimental to the general well being of the
neighborhood. The sale of alcoholic beverages, as
modified, will complement the sales of other products
found in the market and are consistent with the
operations of larger, regional market operations not
• found in the area.
1
B. Will the proposed use, as modified, 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 sale of alcoholic beverages from the proposed market
will not be detrimental to the health, safety, and
general welfare of persons residing or working in the
local area, as the modified conditions of approval have
been included which preclude the consumption of alcoholic
beverages at or near the premises. Based on reports
received from the neighbors and the Police Department,
additional conditions have been modified to eliminate
potential adverse impacts associated with the use,
particularly as it relates to litter and trash on and
around the property.
C. Will the proposed use, as modified, adversely affect the
present economic stability or future economic development of
properties surrounding the area?
The modified use of the subject property as it relates to
alcohol sales will not have an adverse impact on the
economic stability of the site or surrounding properties
since no over-concentration of licenses is occurring and
conditions have been modified to minimize impacts on
surrounding properties. The modified conditions will
enhance the overall operations of the market and enhance
the quality of the site.
D. Will the proposed use, as modified, comply with the
regulations and conditions specified in Chapter 41 for such
use?
The proposed site and use, as modified, will be brought
into closer compliance with the regulations and
conditions specified in Chapter 41 for this use as well
as the conditions specified for this ABC license.
E. Will the proposed use, as modified, adversely affect the
General Plan or any specific plan of the City?
The proposed use, as modified, will not adversely affect
the General Plan or the proposed Midtown Specific Plan.
The project is in compliance with the General Plan and
follows the guidelines within the proposed Midtown Plan.
